@SenSanders Thank you, Senator!
The voters have spoken. #SchumerAndJeffriesMustGo

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

Asking for new voices to at least be heard when deciding who is going to lead the Democratic party is not disloyal.

We are not Trump-MAGA cultists.

We want different opinions.
We want vigorous debate.
We want choice.

And there is nothing DISLOYAL about any of that.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

66% want Medicare for All
61% want a billionaire wealth tax
57% want a $20/hour minimum wage
63% want a data center moratorium
58% want to end military aid to Israel
73% want to ban super PACs
79% want a 10% credit card interest rate cap

No more excuses. Democrats must deliver.

Only you could undermine a historic night for Democrats by going on TV and saying "The American people don't want us to get even"

It's never been about that.

It IS about ACCOUNTABILITY and the RULE OF LAW.

And your failure to understand this is DISQUALIFYING

BREAKING: SWEET KARMA! Democrat Scott Colom, who is about to win the Mississippi Senate seat, only ran after his MAGA opponent stopped him from obtaining a lifetime federal judge position!

This is one of the most glorious backfires in American history...

Back in November of 2022, President Biden nominated Colom to the federal district court in northern Mississippi. He received support from the state's senior senator, Republican Roger Wicker.

But Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, who Colom is now leading by 1,764 in the vote count from Tuesday, refused to support the nomination. In fact, she blocked the Senate from even considering him by withholding her blue slip, an old Senate custom that lets one home-state senator veto a judge.

She defended her indefensible move by insisting that he couldn't be trusted with such power because of past support for transgender rights. In reality, she was just pandering to the racist MAGA base by blocking a Black Democrat.

But if she hadn't blocked him, Colom would be a judge right now. Instead, he's poised to take Hyde-Smith's seat, flipping a seat that a Democrat hasn't been able to win since 1972 in a state that handed Trump 61% of its vote in 2024.

While the race has not yet been called, if Colom maintains this lead, as he seems likely to do, the seat is his.

Please ❤️ and share if you can't wait to see Colom in the Senate!

The richest man in the world spent more money than most people will see in a lifetime, only to lose a Senate race in Texas by double digits. This is a reminder that we must overturn Citizens United. But it's also a reminder that organized people can still defeat organized money.

[Jon Ossoff @ossoff]

Thank you, Georgia.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

Texas forever.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Regardless of one’s political point of view, there is widespread agreement that we have a corrupt campaign finance system.

Our job: overturn Citizens United, end super PACs and move to public funding of elections.

Democracy means one person, one vote. Not billionaires buying elections.

Why is this Albanian politician hanging out with Ken Paxton? In his home country, Fatmir Mediu is facing charges. In America, he’s meeting with MAGA luminaries. https://t.co/OC8Jn36RWV

Fox: Why are you here this morning?

Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

In 1952, an English teacher named Cecil Dormand secretly paid for a dirt-poor 11-year-old to take a drama course.

He never told him and the boy didn’t find out until decades later.

By then, he was a knight, that little boy’s name was Patrick Stewart.

He was born into a poor family in Mirfield, a small mill town in Yorkshire and his father came home from World War II a violent man, and he was violent toward Patrick’s mother.

Young Patrick learned exactly when to step between his father’s fist and his mother.

An English teacher put a copy of Shakespeare in his hand and told him to get up and perform.

He never stopped and left school at 15.

By 19 he was completely bald... most agencies told him he'd never make it because of that.

In 1987, the LA Times called him an “unknown British Shakespearean actor” when he was cast as Captain Picard.

Then he became one of the most famous faces on Earth.

You’ve probably heard that part.

Here’s the part you haven’t:

He spent decades as a patron of Refuge, sheltering women and children from domestic violence.

But he never stopped trying to understand his father.

He dug up a 1940 newspaper clipping that said his dad had come home with severe shell shock.

He went to France and walked the ground where his father’s unit was pinned down under bombing for hours.

He learned his father had PTSD, and nobody ever helped him.

So Patrick became an ambassador for Combat Stress, a charity that helps veterans.

In 2013, a young woman at a Texas convention told him she was a survivor of domestic violence.

He asked, “My dear, are you okay?”

Then he hopped off the stage, held her, and told her: “You never have to go through that again, you’re safe now.”

At Dragon Con, a Make-A-Wish girl dressed as Spock came to meet him.

2,000 people were waiting for him to speak... he sat down and talked with her for 15 minutes, making all of them wait.

He told her that since they were friends now, whenever she saw him on screen she could wave and say, “Hello Patrick.”

After 9/11, he felt helpless, so he brought his one-man A Christmas Carol back to Broadway for a full week of charity shows.

He played every character himself and donated every cent.

In 2019 he did it again, and every dollar went to feeding hungry New Yorkers.

In 2017, he fostered a pit bull named Ginger, who had been rescued from a dogfighting ring.

She was his first dog in more than 50 years.

He couldn’t bring her home to England, so he found her a family.

Then he kept fostering more.

When he said he was done with Star Trek so many people told him the show had gotten them through the hardest times of their lives.

So he wanted to see if Picard could do it one more time.

Rest in Peace, Sir Patrick 🖖

Do NOT trust the polls. A blue wave won't happen unless you personally make it happen. Vote and encourage everyone you know to vote.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.
