Dallas County voters, poll workers report confusion on Election Day The Republican and Democratic parties of Dallas County held separate elections this year, prompting confusion among some voters at many polling locations.

So I see Moral Orel may end up benefitting from the GOP fuckery that's led to confusion about where Democrats can vote in Dallas County, Texas.

Dallas County is the stronghold of Moral Orel's primary opponent, Jasmine Crockett.

Those of you who voted for Trump in ‘16, ‘20 and/or ‘24 own this. We warned you about how evil, how racist, how corrupt he was and you voted for him anyway. This is the prism I will judge all of you through.

Tell the truth & shame the devil @kamalaharris.com

Preach!!!!

Watch & share.

We must condemn his murder but we don’t need to celebrate his evil bigotry.

I’ve lost respect for a lot of folk.

Representation matters. Black women are the foundation of the Democratic Party. I am ready to carry my experience, leadership and the legacy of those before me to the U.S. Senate.

Major gun control PAC endorses US Rep. Robin Kelly’s Senate bid US Rep. Robin Kelly secured the endorsement of the Brady PAC, a major gun safety organization, in her bid to succeed US Sen. Dick Durbin.

I don’t guess what matters to constituents —I listen. In this clip, I explain how your voices help me identify and prioritize the issues that need action.

We are in the fight of our lives to stop Donald Trump from trampling the Constitution and tearing apart people’s fundamental rights. We will always fight back against a dictator and we will do so peacefully.

I had a great q & a session with the team Illinois Democratic Women of Will County this morning in New Lenox.

Thank you to Cook County Board President @tonipreckwinkle.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to meet with folks in 4th Ward.

It was important to kick off Memorial Day weekend with active duty members of the military, veterans & Gold Star families at Chicago’s Memorial Day wreath-laying & parade. I was honored to meet Major General William J. Walker (Ret.), who led the National Guard on January 6, 2001.

Five years ago today, George Floyd was killed when his murderer kneeled on his neck for 9.5 minutes. Video of his death horrified our nation and a movement was born.

With a majority in the House, Democrats passed the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, but Republicans defeated it in the Senate.

Taylor is crashing out in real-time.

Hey are there any journalists out there looking for a scoop about declining cognitive abilities of presidents of the United States?

Why do you think Republicans set tonight's Rules Committee meeting for 1:00 AM (Eastern)/12:00 AM (Central).

Reply with your thoughts on why. . .

This irresponsible & dangerous settlement that Donald Trump’s DOJ agreed to will cost American lives because it effectively legalizes machine guns. As a result, every community is less safe. I am not backing down from this fight, not from gun lobbyists, not from MAGA extremists. #StopGunViolence

Last fall during a visit to “The Blue Dot” I was introduced to someone everyone told me would be the next Mayor of Omaha, last night that prediction came true when John Ewing Jr beat the 3 term Republican mayor.

He will become the city’s 1st African-American mayor. Congratulations Mr. Mayor-Elect!

Heading back to DC to fight the good fight against Trump & the Republicans who want to cut your healthcare to pay for their tax cuts for the super rich!

She has a proven track record of delivering for her constituents. She has served at every level of government, was the 1st woman & 1st African American to serve as chair of the Democratic Party of Illinois. She has introduced & passed legislation that has been signed into law.

I'm thrilled that my friend, my boss, my Congresswoman,
@robinlynnekelly.bsky.social has announced she is running for the Senate. I cannot wait for the people of Illinois to meet her, she is a good & decent person, a compassionate warrior who is simply a bad ass public servant. #TeamRobin

Go ahead & tell me how important speculating about Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities is when this is who is currently POTUS.

Shoutout to Robin Kelly!

This afternoon’s Danville meet & greet at Mad Goat Coffee turned into an impromptu town hall. A special thank you to Sam from Mad Goat for the hospitality, tour and sharing the story of your business.

The interesting thing is, and we all know I am not exaggerating here: if a Democratic VP had visited the Pope within 36 hours of his death there would be a Republican fueled conspiracy theory, propped up by the media, that the Democratic VP killed the pope.

Great turnout in Pontiac for @robinlynnekelly.bsky.social’s town hall tonight. It was also great to hear from Ed Yohnka of the @acluofcentralil.bsky.social

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US.

When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

David Hogg is an op.

Does anybody have access to Bukele’s livestream because I am sure senile, racist convicted felon Trump don’t look to good in it.
