Xavier Becerra, candidate for California Governor, has just received $950,000 from Meta to his Super PAC

Chuck Schumer was one of 7 Senate Democrats to vote to send bulldozers to Israel. 40 Democratic Senators voted no.

Mr. Schumer, you are out of touch with our base and the nation.

Step aside.

[Prem Thakker @prem_thakker]

🚨 Record high 40 Senators vote to block $300M of bulldozers to Israel.

Blumenthal, Coons, Cortez Masto, Fetterman, Gillibrand, Rosen, Schumer voted w/ Republicans.

Along with demolishing Palestinian homes, Israel used a bulldozer to kill 23-year-old American Rachel Corrie.

[Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine]

A man who has never seen war and never will, cheering this on from a comfortable perch in Washington.

Every Senator who fails to stop this war should lose their seat, starting with @SenSusanCollins and @SenFettermanPA.

[John Bourscheid 🇺🇸 🚀 @bourscheid]

Somewhat symbolic of American failure both at home & abroad when we pretend to be rescuing the people of Iran, and the first bomb kills 40 little girls at an elementary school. Call it the Epstein War.

I was shot at a school shooting at 15. Last night spent locked down at my university while learning of casualties & the many injured. This is not how I imagined life when I was little girl. I miss that carefree child I once was. Thinking of the many affected #BrownUniversity

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

In a just world, every one of these Democratic senators would be primaried - especially the hypocritical Cory Booker who is wisely trying to hide his face in this picture. (Netanyahu is wanted by the ICC, a far right authoritarian, and kills innocent Palestinians on a daily basis, including today!)

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

This is what a rigged economy looks like:

In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker.

In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker.

This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker.

That has got to change.

Thank you @AOC & @BernieSanders Folsom rally!

Bernie: "I wanna say a word about my daughter. I wanna say a word about Alexandria and why what she's doing is important"

Random person in the crowed: "OUR FUTURE PRESIDENT"

[Steve Peoples @sppeoples]

For now, 83-year-old @BernieSanders stands alone as the only elected progressive willing to mount a national campaign to harness the fear and anger of the sprawling anti-Trump movement. My look inside Bernie's "stop oligarchy" tour that's drawing massive crowds: https://t.co/6SeEWsjgOt

The Democrats had a President called Franklin D Roosevelt who won four straight elections in crushing landslides. They will never, ever bring up his name. Instead they praise Republicans Ronald Reagan and George W Bush.

[AIPAC Tracker @TrackAIPAC]

We could house every single American but our politicians would rather funnel our tax dollars to Israel to bomb hospitals and murder kids.

[Bill Barnwell @billbarnwell]

Here are the Raiders draft picks from 2016-23 - the final year of McKenzie, the Gruden/Mayock era, and the two McDaniels drafts. Guys crossed out in black aren't in the league, guys crossed out in red are in the league but no longer with the Raiders.

Eight drafts that appear to have yielded the 2024 Raiders a total of one star (Crosby), one solid offensive player (Miller), and a couple of solid defenders (Koonce and Moehrig).

You can't win until you fix that.
