Priscilla Chan’s decision to stop funding the school she opened to help struggling families shows the risks for communities reliant on wealthy private donors.

This November 2026 elections will be a litmus test for our Democracy. Do we survive as a nation will depend upon us Americans to go out and vote these fuckers out.
This violence must end and be condemned by everyone. All of us must do more to stop the hatred that permeates our country. We stand in solidarity with the people of Minnesota.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it
Did anyone notice that Buekele didn’t wear a tie? I thought that outraged people when Zelensky didn’t
You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.
Yup!
WARNER: Can you explain how it helps natl security or our trade balance - I loved your fancy Greek formula which was bad math on steroids - how with a trade surplus Australia got hit with a 10% tariff as well?
GREER: Australia has the lowest rate available
WARNER: We have a trade surplus!

BREAKING: The Department of Defense Inspector General has launched an investigation into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for sharing secret attack plans against the Houthis using Signal.
I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.
Don’t drink and text.
Hey guys remember the Hillary Clinton email server?
Seems kinda, small today, doesn’t it?
I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.
Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.
The prison guards in El Salvador must have a reason for hiding their identities: They are up to no good.
And the United States is complicit in their abuse.
CORRUPTION
Don’t let the evil maniac buy congress.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.
If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved
The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.
Grow a spine, Chuck.
We don't spend a penny on marketing. It's all word of mouth for @costplusdrugs.com
That's how we keep prices so low. Please spread the word !

Not a SINGLE Democratic senator should vote for the Republican spending bill. Doing so would simply further embolden and empower Trump in his effort to destroy our government and the vital services it provides.
STAND YOUR GROUND AND FIGHT — LIKE HOUSE DEMOCRATS DID!!

I truly hope that one silver lining we take from this coup is that voters begin to understand that when you vote for president, you’re not just selecting one person. You’re selecting all the judges they’ll appoint, and the entire cabinet.
I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
The brain drain we are setting in motion on so many fronts is incredible
Schumer is a disgrace
