Lifelong Lib. Voting solid Blue since '76! Persister. Musician. Former kid, future corpse. Dem door knocker and phone banker since '04. BLM & LGBTQ ally. Fighting against the economic war the rich started in the 70's! We have entered the Twilight Zone.

I need to remind people. The midterms have never been so important.
Don't let people use scare tactics or make you think it won't happen.
also if voting didn't matter gerrymandering wouldn't exist.
A terrible February jobs report. The U.S. economy LOST 92,000 jobs last month, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.4%, one of the highest levels seen in the past few years.
December was revised down to -17,000 jobs, while January was revised to 126,000.
Neguse demolishes Noem (2/2)
NOEM: I would disagree with the judge
CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?
NOEM: A what?
CROCKETT: A law degree
NOEM: No I do no-
CROCKETT: Okay
CNNβs Harry Enten:
The word last night for Democrats in Texas: "Tremendous!"
-Highest turnout ever for a Texas Dem Senate primary (more than 2x the average this century)!
-More votes cast in a midterm TX Dem primary than GOP for the 1st time since 2002
-GOP side, meanwhile, is a dumpster fire
I predict this man has a very bright future.

Trump: The Republican Primary Race for the United States Senate in the Great State of Texas, a State I LOVE and won 3 times in Record Numbers (the HIGHEST vote ever recorded, by far!!!), cannot, for the good of the Party, and our Country, itself, be allowed to go on any longer. IT MUST STOP NOW! We have an easy to beat, Radical Left Opponent, and we have to TOTALLY FOCUS on putting him away, quickly and decisively! Both John and Ken ran great races, but not good enough. Now, this one, must be PERFECT! My Endorsements within the Republican Party have been virtually insurmountable! It is such an honor to realize and say that almost everyone I Endorse WINS, and wins by a lot, especially in Texas! I will be making my Endorsement soon, and will be asking the candidate that I don't Endorse to immediately DROP OUT OF THE RACE! Is that fair? We must win in November!!! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP 7 ReTruths 13 Likes 3/4/26, 10:14 AM
Trump says the Republican primary in Texas for Senate βcannot, for the good of the Party, and our Country, itself, be allowed to go on any longer.β
βI will be making my Endorsement soon, and will be asking the candidate that I don't Endorse to immediately DROP OUT OF THE RACE! Is that fair?β
By the way I caucused for Bernie in 2016 and voted for Elizabeth Warren in the 2020 primaries. So Iβm not exactly Mr. Super-moderate
I remember campaigning for Hillary in Colorado in 2016 and having voters tell me they βjust werenβt feeling herβ, didnβt trust her or were voting for the Green Party. That was versus a guy who routinely defaulted on paying contracts, had his charity shut down for fraud and implicated in crimes.
I love Jasmine. I wish the DNC would have let her do the response to Trump after the SOTU however as someone who has been door knocking and phone banking for over 20 years and in Texas for 8 disagree. R attack ads on Crockett would have been horrendous. Latent racism and sexism is a real thing here.
wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"
I just did. Good luck!

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

This aged well. Note the author.
U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
The military industrial complex is cheering today.

Suffice to say, the mood inside CNN is not good tonight.

Modern values have shifted, leading people to openly celebrate behaviors once considered indecent, selfish, or immoral, while neglecting traditional virtues. Critics argue this results in a "shameless" society prioritizing attention, nudity, and vice over integrity, kindness, and moral judgment.

McGowan: There's three people mentioned most in the Epstein files: Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and Donald Trump. But we're deposing Hillary Clinton?
Let's not forget that Bondi was the Attorney General for Florida from 2011-2019.
Wild how Hillary Clinton has to answer for why Trump raped kids with Jeffrey Epstein.
when the justice department reveals itself to be untrustworthy, then surprise! the courts no longer trust the justice department:
