New York City turned OUT.

Looks like the regime has put JD in charge of bullshit.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.

IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

Khanna: "We have to understand how abnormal this is. You don't mock someone and put a video out about how they look. You don't ever mock people's ethnicity. How do you negotiate with that? And how have we made this normal?"

Housing. Healthcare. Energy.

Three basic essentials that Virginians rely on every single day — but too many families struggle to afford.

Making life more affordable in Virginia is my top priority — and on Day One, I’ll get to work to lower costs across the Commonwealth.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Vaccine panel that limited covid shot scrutinized after chaotic meetings Members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices showed a tenuous grasp of process and cited flawed research as they revisited covid, hepatitis B and MMRV shots.

"Members were unprepared, misunderstood or ignored key data and highlighted flawed or inconclusive research often trumpeted by vaccine critics."

Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying.

We ALL need to step up for the first amendment.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Virginia, you deserve a Governor who will put you first.

I’m ready for the job.

For some reason, Winsome Earle-Sears says Virginians should elect her to “keep a good thing going”...

I have questions. Is she referring to Virginia’s rising unemployment rate? Higher costs? Health clinic closures? Virginia deserves better.

My opponent is about to get on stage with Vivek Ramaswamy, one of the chief architects of DOGE — responsible for firing thousands of Virginia workers.

Winsome Earle-Sears, this is shameful. Virginians deserve better.

Our campaign is by and for Virginians — it’s why my focus is on lowering costs and making life easier across the Commonwealth.

That’s how you put Virginia first.

Yesterday was the first day of early voting in Virginia — and I was so excited to celebrate with so many of you across the Commonwealth!

Here's how I spent Day 1 of early voting. 🗳️

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.

Kimmel, Kinzinger, and MAGA's State-Sponsored Cancel Culture ABC obeys in advance

Disney/ABC did not wait for the FCC hammer to fall — they chose, instead, to obey in advance.

But, even then, the corporate lackeys lacked the courage of their capitulation — failing to offer any explanation or defense of their surrender.

Wow- Cassidy says that "I understand that Sen Mullin implied there was a recording of the meeting between Dr Monarez and Sec Kennedy. I will note that if materials have been provided to Mullin, they are official committee records...if it does not exist, I ask Mullin to retract his line of questions"

More people in Ohio need protection from violent crime than there are people in D.C. Governors of three states — Ohio, South Carolina and West Virginia — are sending members of their state National Guards to D.C. to … well, theoretically to combat crime but, if the past week is any in...

Late last night I mapped crime rates for cities in OH, SC and WV to show how often they exceeded the rate in DC — where those states’ governors are sending National Guard troops to “combat crime.” www.pbump.net/o/more-peopl...
