At every USL game this weekend, USL players paused play for 60 seconds in a powerful show of solidarity.

They’re united and ready to fight for the fair contract they deserve.

As the players stand still, America’s unions stand with them.

Kinda weird that the party that controls the House, the Senate, and the White House claims there's rampant voter fraud.

Rep. Angie Craig: "The attacks on Black and brown people in Minnesota have been egregious. At the end of the day, what they wanted out of Minnesota was for us to riot. I think this will go down in American history as one of the greatest examples of peaceful resistance from an entire community."

They can do whatever they want in public. Harmed no one. Folks are too judgy about things that have no consequence.

Well a wedding proposal is supposed to be all about the 2 people and they should absolutely do it the way they want. Why are we policing wedding proposals?

You might want to do a little more research Kev. She actually asked him to do it, said that is what she wanted. They made the plan, it wasn't a surprise and it was about her.

What evidence do you have that "the party" wanted Cuomo?

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE:

"I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

FYI: Dems in the senate can't defund ICE. ICE is funded by the Big Ugly Bill. Shutting down DHS on this vote wouldn't touch ICE, but it would shut down FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, etc. Shutting down ICE requires taking back Congress in the midterms. Dismantling DHS requires the White House in 2028.

If we can only get that number up to 50 or even 75% that is less time then for him to do damage.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

South Shore Residents Return To Ransacked Apartments After ICE Raid: 'It Looks Like Hell' A "now renting" sign outside touts granite countertops. Inside, residents are trying to make sense of the raid that made their already neglected building even worse.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

I'm sick of the media focusing only on the "who's to blame for the shutdown" tomfuckery. Your job is to accurately report the actual facts-- more importantly how the GOP is still LYING about the facts. Do that and people can decide for themselves who is responsible for this bullshit state of affairs

No Excuse!!! Get vaccinated! If not for you, do it for others. Measles and mumps can be deadly. Talk to your grandparents. They had both when they were children.

RFK JR: We're not going to recommend a product for which there's no clinical data for that indication—is that what I should be doing?

Warren: What you should be doing is honoring your promise that you made when you were looking to get confirmed in this job.

Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."

Regardless of any presidential "schedule", it is inappropriate for a "nation's leader" to be invisible after a horrific event like the school shooting today. Neither he nor Vance need lunch today.
