TRUMP SAYS HE’LL RESPECT MIDTERM RESULTS IF THEY’RE ‘HONEST’: With less than a week until nationwide midterm elections that could lead to a seismic shift in political power, ‘The View’ co-hosts weigh in on how the president said he’d handle himself after the votes are counted.
Dolores Huerta was a hero of mine.
When she co-founded the National Farm Workers Association in 1962, people thought Dolores was crazy. “How are you going to organize farm workers,” she remembered being asked. "They are poor, powerless immigrants.” But that’s exactly what she did, helping thousands of migrant laborers working in brutal conditions make their voices heard, and demand something better.
Dolores spent the rest of her life fighting for marginalized communities, even as she herself faced sexism and abuse — including, as she revealed earlier this year, from Cesar Chavez and others within her own movement. She also came up with a pretty good slogan, “Si, se puede” — Yes, we can — that I too often get credit for. But as usual, Dolores got there first.
Michelle and I are thinking of Dolores’s family, the people whose lives she changed, and everyone who drew inspiration from her example.

@factpostnews Dear @rncchair Trump has low approval ratings because his policies are awful and his leadership is less than trustworthy he’s a bad president and hopefully he’ll be a lame duck one after November 3rd
@GOP@VP Why is the president acting like a true blue racist? And why aren’t you condemning this kind of rhetoric This is why if El-Sayed wins he should treat both of you like the trash you are
Trump on El-Sayed: He goes by Abdul Ramadan I call him Mohammed. We can’t have these people in the US. He’s going to have to go through a metal detector. We have people that should not be running for politics in this country
