Just here to distill information, offer inspiration and sometimes share a laugh.

[Team Ossoff @TeamOssoff]

Ossoff: I'd like to share with you some brief words on the subject of misrule as we endure the daily spectacle of this broken man and his ruined presidency.

Each day his allies are fewer, and even they no longer deny his corruption. The obscene self-dealing while he plunges the nation deeper into reckless war, while the people pay more for everything and millions lose health coverage, while he rakes in billions and builds himself a ballroom and prepares again to attack our elections.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Imagine the amount of propaganda it took to convince millions of people that healthcare, food assistance, social programs, clean water, clean air, good wages, housing, equal rights, diversity and a healthy planet for all people was somehow a threat to America and to Christianity.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

In the richest country on Earth, we should have a great standard of living for ALL our people, not massive income and wealth inequality.

The American people are tired of status quo politics.

They want change, real change.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

On Feb. 26, 2026, the Strait of Hormuz was an open international waterway, as it had been for decades.

Five months later, thanks to Trump's war, the Strait is closed, we've lost 18 service members and spent ~$100b, and the U.S. is neither as liked nor as trusted nor as feared.

[Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal]

The United States is the richest country in the world. Meanwhile, millions of Americans are uninsured, underinsured, or drowning in medical debt.

It's time we pass Medicare for All: everyone deserves to access the care they need without going bankrupt.

They died serving our country. They should be honored, not erased.

[Team Ossoff @TeamOssoff]

Ossoff: We've got Americans coming back from overseas in flag-draped coffins. In the last two weeks, nearly 100 wounded in action, at least four killed in action, in a war that they lied us into.

They told us there was an imminent nuclear threat, a year after they told us they'd obliterated the threat. They told us in the second week they'd already destroyed the enemy. They told us over and over and over again that they'd won. That they were about to win…They keep telling us it's going to last just a couple more days, just a couple more weeks.

And all of this incompetence is costing lives, and it's costing families across the country economically who are dealing with these out-of-control tariffs, who are dealing with gas prices.

[Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal]

A study found that there was a dramatic spike in cancer diagnoses when Americans hit age 65. Why? Because they finally qualified for Medicare and could afford to see a doctor.

People should be able to go to the doctor when they need to, not when they age into coverage. It’s time for Medicare for All.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

When Trump said “I’m not going to start a war,” many Americans believed that promise - and voted for him.

When he said his Iran war would be over in a few weeks, many believed that too.

Americans today are fed up with the cost of this war - and the lies.

"The only minority destroying America is billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. Muslims are 1% of the population. Undocumented people are 1% of the population. We are focused on the wrong 1%.” James Talarico Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas.

[Fred Wellman @FPWellman]

I’m old enough to remember when Republicans were losing their minds that a Muslim was being elected to head NYC just 25 years after 9/11. Now they are literally handing nuclear secrets and technology to the country that raised the attackers because Trump’s family is bought and paid for by the Saudi Royal family. This corruption is beyond measure and the Republican Congress is screaming about “communists” and threatening Cuba.

[Social Security Works ❌👑 @SSWorks]

Medicare and Social Security deliver on the promise that generations of Americans have counted on: after a lifetime of hard work, you will be able to retire with dignity and security.

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

Illinois is now fifth in the nation for public education; that’s a 7-spot jump in just a year.

From cradle to career, we’re investing in every child’s future — and it’s paying off.

A win for our schools, our students, and our state. https://t.co/XYTaGxDGxa

just a reminder

[𝔗𝔯𝔲𝔱𝔥 𝔐𝔞𝔱𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔰 @politicsusa46]

To be a truly effective politician, speaking truth must be at the heart of what you do @NYCMayor is a gold standard leader because truth and moral decency is at the core of who he is.

If you watch him here, he delivers a masterclass of listening carefully and with respect to the questioner. You can see him formulating an answer long before she finishes. I’m sure he’d make a great poker player.

His response is articulate, polite and carefully considered, but there is never any sense at any point he’s prepared to compromise his beliefs to say what he thinks people want to hear.

He didn’t mention October 7, because it was irrelevant to the fact that the ICC had issued a warrant for Netanyahu’s arrest for war crimes. He is not driven by the usual pandering to please groups who may disagree with him. He sticks to the facts which makes him a formidable force in politics.
