.@jrpsaki: “Putin and Xi are models for Trump. Leaders who jail and silence journalists. Leaders who do not tolerate free speech. That’s what Trump is threatening. If you don’t think he is dying to silence his critics in the media... Think again.”
“Hitler was right” was posted online over 70,000 times last year. So don’t look away from online hate. No matter who is sharing it.

You gotta watch this speech from Rep Justin Jones as Tennessee Republicans attempt to expel him and two others for simply standing with students demanding gun safety. Republicans know they are on the losing side of history. This is proof

🚨 EMERGENCY: The white woman on the left with the pink hair at a Black Lives Matter protest is an UNDERCOVER POLICE OFFICER from Colorado Springs named April Rogers.
With the help of the FBI, she created a fake identity named Chelsie, and pretended to be a sex worker that was disturbed by police brutality. It was all a lie.
Once she infiltrated local groups in Colorado, she started trying to get peaceful Black leaders to commit a slew of gun crimes. Which they thankfully refused. Over and over again she tried to get people to break the law.
This right here is what we are up against. She's still employed by the Colorado Springs Police.
@alphabetboys.pod did the hard work to uncover this. Grateful for the team there.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has signed a law guaranteeing free breakfast and lunch for all students in the state, regardless of how much money their parents make. Tens of thousands of food-insecure kids will benefit.
READ @HalieSoifer's op-ed:
“I protested Smotrich’s visit for the same reason I’ve marched in support of Israel in the past – I remain an American Jew motivated by a deep and life-long commitment to Israel and its future as a Jewish & democratic state.” https://t.co/6eUBc1huY6
Watch this. And then watch it again. Pay attention to Jon Stewart’s tone. He’s calm. He’s collected. But he is armed with the facts. And he isn’t afraid to call out this Republican. A masterclass in itself that everyone in the media should learn from.
Amid the growing danger of antisemitism, it’s important to consider the root causes.
Right-wing antisemites are uniquely emboldened by Republican politicians who have dangerously used extremist rhetoric, conspiracy theories, and policies — and have aligned with, tolerated, echoed, and even embraced white supremacists and other far-right extremists — as a part of their political agenda for their own political gain.

🎥Watch—TRAIN SAFETY RULES—"When Obama tried to make [new, more effective brakes] mandatory after a bunch of derailments in 2014—the lobbyists fought it hard. They gutted it. In 2018, Trump’s DOT, Elaine Chao was DOT secretary, rolled it back entirely."
I'm so angry — House Republicans have introduced legislation to repeal the $35/month cap on insulin that Democrats passed for seniors on Medicare.
I need you to retweet and spread the word about this. Every voter needs to know.
Last week, some Republican members of Congress wore these AR-15 lapel pins handed out by Congressman Andrew Clyde, who has a $25 million stake in a company that makes assault rifles.
Gun violence is the leading cause of death among children and teens in America.
I just want to make a few things clear:
The Holocaust happened.
Hitler was a demonic figure.
And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.
Silence is complicity.
Remember that time at the SOTU when Obama spoke up about the problems we’d face ahead with special interest groups due to Citizens United & one of the Justices mouthed,“not true”?
That was Justice Alito who we now know is in deep w/special interests & deeply compromised.#leaker
By taking action with JDCA - the only national org combining Jewish values advocacy & a Democratic agenda - you helped deliver 74% of the Jewish vote for Democrats to help maintain Dems' Senate majority.
Thank you for helping ensure the Jewish vote delivered for Democrats.
