It's been a long time since we had a Democratic Senator in NC. We are long overdue. Whatley's only name recognition in the state with Maga is because he's trump endorsed.

To understand what's going on in the West Bank as Americans: Imagine that ICE was occupying Native American lands, and through threat of violence allowing white Americans to build houses there with funding from the govt, explicitly for white supremacy, and also that they've been doing it for decades

ICE said it plans to spend $38.3 billion on a new detention model that includes acquiring warehouses and converting them into detention centers, according to a government memo The government said it plans to convert warehouses for an immigrant detention network that would collectively hold more than 92,000 people.

Foreign money, alleged lies, and extremism—what GOP senators voting for Kash Patel ignored Trump's pick for FBI director is severely compromised. Republicans don't care.

Say what you will about the Islamic Republic of Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and Security, but it seems like they give more of a shit than Chuck Grassley about why the director of the FBI was recently getting payments from China, Qatar and (sorta) Russia. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The Politicians Won’t Stop This War. Only the People Can. The No Kings movement needs to become a mass anti-war movement.

No Kings proves that millions are ready to march against Trump. The task now is to convince them to march not just against the king but the king’s mad war.

New bill would fix law that’s failing journalists Police keep raiding reporters without telling courts about the Privacy Protection Act of 1980. An update to the act from Sen. Wyden and Rep. Balint would put a stop to it

The raid on journalist Hannah Natanson is just one of many examples of why the Privacy Protection Act of 1980 must be strengthened.

A new bill by @wyden.senate.gov and @balint.house.gov would do just that.

We’re proud to endorse it.
