Renee Good should still be here. She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth. She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

On Juneteenth, we celebrate Black freedom, resilience, culture, and the enduring strength of community across generations. We acknowledge our nationโ€™s full history and the long, ongoing fight for freedom and justice for Black Americans.

This!!

Juneteenth is the perfect moment to remind everyone of two facts: 1. Those who donโ€™t learn from history are doomed to repeat it. 2. Those who prevent history from being taught are plotting to repeat it. Read this out loud. Read it again. Then teach it to your kids.

Juneteenth is a powerful reminder of how far weโ€™ve comeโ€”and how much further we still have to go. It marks the moment freedom finally reached our people right here in Texas. Our people took what was withheld and built something powerful: resilience, pride, and a legacy we carry to this day. (1/2)

Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

On Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom and recommit ourselves to the work that remains undone. We remember that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope for tomorrowโ€™s light.

Congratulations to His Holiness Pope Leo XIV on his historic selection. Doug and I join millions across our nation and around the world in praying for him as he steps into his new role and leads the Catholic Church.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

Warnock: I hear people attack poor people and act like itโ€™s a crime to be poor, rather than to recognize itโ€™s criminal for so many people to be poor. They do all of this in the name of Jesusโ€ฆ Jesus is the biggest victim of identity theft in the United States

Hi, I'm God. Human beings should not be thrown into prisons without due process. Even Jesus got a hearing.

Iโ€™m going to say something that shouldnโ€™t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador presidentโ€™s statements today, weโ€™re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

Vaccines do not cause children to have autism. Vaccines cause children to be able to grow up to be adults, because children can stay alive instead of die from vaccine-preventable diseases like measles. Also: autistic children are delightfully amazing and we love them. โค๏ธ

Today, HHS Secretary RFK Jr. promised that โ€œby September, we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and we will be able to eliminate those exposures.โ€ This alarming claim is untrue, impossible, and ableist. Full statement:

Absolutely proud of you all! HUG! So far, 3.1 million protesters counted today โ€” thatโ€™s nearly 1% of the U.S. population! Photos are flooding social media everywhere. Still waiting on more numbers to come in.

I'm not saying anything novel here but it really is just truly despicable to watch them use THEIR OWN COLOSSAL SCREW UP to slander the reporter THEY INCLUDED ON THEIR CLASSIFIED GROUP CHAT

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernieโ€™s career (and obviously, mine too).

In a scathing ruling, a federal judge has blocked Trump transgender military ban, calling it "soaked in animus and dripping with pretext." Judge Reyes says the ban demeans transgender people and lacks any legitimate basis.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 โ˜Ž๏ธโ˜Ž๏ธโ˜Ž๏ธ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@aoc.bsky.social

๐Ÿšจ Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Donโ€™t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesnโ€™t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. ๐Ÿคณ๐Ÿฝ: (202) 224-3121
