Barack Obama just endorsed Angie Nixon for U.S. Senate! She may not have the full backing of the Democratic establishment, but she’s building support from the biggest names in the party. LFG! 🔥

Today, I’m honored to share that President Obama is supporting our campaign for the U.S. Senate. President @barackobama.bsky.social & I both started as organizers in our communities, because we immediately understood that real changes come from regular folks joining the fight. #AngieForFlorida

In 2012, Robin Williams warned us about Trump’s ownership of pageants like Miss America and Miss Universe, comparing it to Michael Vick owning pet stores: “It’s a catch-and-release program.” We should have listened to Robin.

This ad, when tested, moves swing voters 8 points away from Trump & Republicans. THAT’S HUGE MOVEMENT. Please share! Turns out Americans don’t like creepy Republicans obsessing about their junk. 🤷‍♂️

As hundreds of thousands of Haitian immigrants in Florida now face the terrifying threat of dangerous deportation after the sudden Trump Administration termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) this summer,

Given the tone of the 'speech' it's clear frump is thinking of using nukes. His low standings in the U.S. and the most likely outcome of the upcoming elections makes him feel he has to do something dramatic to remain in power.

It's amazing that just Cuba and Iran walked out given his obvious disdain for the U.N. and the treats of violence to not only those 2 countries but to any country he feels had gone against him.

Quando non è al centro dell'attenzione a sproloquiare da un palco, lui si annoia, e si appisola. Oggi, alla commemorazione per l' #11settembre al Pentagono.

Welcome to the race, Governor Abbott. To catch you up to speed, I've spent the last year talking to Texans about the issues that matter to them: saving Texas schools and putting money in their pockets. Texans are ready for change this November.

“And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” Matthew 6:5-6

El-Sayed on Vance: Is that Peter Thiel's boy with that Ohio charisma? The last thing that he said that made any sense was Hillbilly Elegy—after he said that Donald Trump had no business being president of anything. And then he decided to suck up to power.

El-Sayed on Islamophobia: "That's the only play they got. They're gonna point at me, they're gonna point at my name, like, 'Wow, he's different.' That's the best you got? You can't actually talk about what you want to do? My name is not raising your gas prices. My name is now taking us to war."

The establishment goons want to make this about everything but the policies. They do this because they have no policy. Don't get distracted. Just talk about the policies.

I'm really struggling with the whole Mitch McConnell thing. Like, is the whole democratic party so weak that not one will book a flight to walk into the hospital or hire a PI to determine if he's dead? Do we not have investigative journalists anymore? WTH is happening, and why is no one checking?

Any "journalist" who goes to the White House Correspondents Dinner after Trump subpoenaed three New York Times reporters—simply for doing their jobs—should be ashamed. If, indeed, they have any shame.
