NEW Russia has completely destroyed the Trypilska Thermal Power Plant in Kyiv. Due to Speaker Mike Johnson's refusal to bring the Ukraine aid bill for a vote, Ukraine doesn't have the capacity to shoot down Russian missiles and drones. Shame on you, @SpeakerJohnson

So, believe it or not, a few states in the U.S. still prohibit Native students from wearing traditional regalia to graduation. Should Indigenous graduates be allowed to wear things like feathers and such when they graduate?
Republican representatives and their supporters are irresponsible and dangerous for America.
The Child Tax Credit I expanded during the pandemic cut child poverty in half. Republicans refused to extend it. I’m fighting to restore it because no child should live in poverty in this country.
Is it okay to post a message containing little or no substance whatsoever, simply to maintain a presence?
Joe Biden is the best president we've ever had.
Donald Trump is the worst president we've ever had.
Trump is like a broken record endlessly repeating his lies, that he is the victim of a “witch hunt,” is “innocent,” and “I’ve never broken the law.” Get a grip Donald! You have been indicted in four separate jurisdictions with 91 different felony charges.
In the United States of America, no one should choose between caring for a parent who raised them, a child who depends on them, or a paycheck that they need.
Thank you, Mr. President. @POTUS

We FINALLY have an answer to the question we've been asking trumpers all this time, but they refuse to answer: When was this period that America was so GREAT that you want to go back to, to "make America great AGAIN?" It's 1864. It was a time when Black people were enslaved,…
While Owen Jones is doing a good job with Israel, it’s not inappropriate that he’s being shot down for “antisemitism” by nutcases and liars after such an intense recent campaign on his own part to support that ridiculous fiction.

@CalltoActivism Ok. Any govt funds at that point needs to be evenly redistributed and they get completely cut off. Give them 90 days to change their minds. After their SS checks stop and other American funds citizens/Vets receive. It won’t last long.
@CalltoActivism The last time they did that was March 2, 1861. It didn’t work out well for them.
