AIPAC sees we have the momentum, and they are panicking.

Here’s their latest attack ad, and my reaction:

Apparently, Lindsey Graham's drunken Fox News bullshit isn't working in the more clear-eyed Middle East.

Masuma Khan has lived in Altadena for nearly 30 years.

Last year, despite having no criminal history, she was detained by ICE and denied the medication she needed to breathe. Her family contacted my office, and we successfully advocated for her release.

Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

The Corporate Miscreants Driving the Affordability Crisis These 20 firms all have something in common: Their CEOs get paid millions, their workers are being pushed onto public assistance, and voters are fed up with them.

Starbucks would rather spend ridiculous amounts on executive salaries, private jets, Bruno Mars concerts for management, and union-busting instead of treating their baristas with respect.

It would cost LESS THAN ONE DAY'S SALES to finalize a fair union contract.

We’re not fighting for ourselves.

"When people like Kamala Harris send our sons and daughters, our young people, to fight in stupid wars, it is the young generation that carries the burden of that. We're gonna stop sending our young people to far away lands. We are not the policemen of the world."

Why Virginia’s January 6 Teaching Law Should Worry Everyone If the state can mandate history, is it still history?

I lost my cousin on 9-11 and have had to listen to all kinds of conspiracy theories about what happened and why. The state of New York mandates that it be taught through its curricular standards. That's how you do it. What Virginia is doing is dangerous. open.substack.com/pub/kevinmle...

I understand why Putin wants to destroy America, and I can guess why Trump is helping him do it. But I'll never figure out why Congress is letting him get away with it.

These are letters and drawings from children at the Dilley Detention Center in Texas.

Trump isn’t going after the β€œworst of the worst.” He’s going after kids β€” who should be home, in school, and playing with their friends.

This is absolutely heartbreaking β€” and it must end.
