Trump: I said, why is it we only take people from shit hole countries, right? Why can't we have some people from Norway, Sweden, Denmark… But we always take people from Somalia… places that are a filthy, dirty, disgusting

It’s okay that they’ll take away your healthcare because now you can do pull-ups at an airport.
Having pull-up bars in airports means you can stay fit while traveling. You can challenge yourself, or better yet, challenge your friends & family during a layover. The downside is your daughter might beat you! That happened today as me, my daughter, Paloma, @SecKennedy &

NEW: A gay Houston immigrant was arrested by ICE when he showed up to his asylum interview on Nov. 4th despite no criminal history. He's been in ICE detention since then. His husband says ICE laid "a trap." He's now working for Jorge's release. https://t.co/OzZfm6eTg1

Ladies and gentlemen the honest truth. Tribalism is a hell of a drug.
You’re right, I dgaf about winning Latino voters in Texas if it means ignoring the TRUTH about their votes, why they’ve voted how they have thus far and the effects of such! I care about actually getting it right, not kissing ass en espanol just bc they don’t like Black people.

This was a troll post. He literally just posted “bofa deez nuts.”
The case for Crockett is: Talarico may be better liked but by people who won’t actually vote for him, whereas she better motivates the base. That could end up totally wrong based on how her campaign goes but there is in fact a data-driven case to be made.

Just donated to a Black legislator, who will stop a genocide/occupation running against an AIPAC supported garbage incumbent Indian American corporate Dem hack. Politics should be about the issues we are fighting for, and the vision we want to see in the world. If all we are
Our community deserves a Representative who actually knows how much groceries cost — and why that cost matters for families. Instead, #MI13 has an out-of-touch multimillionaire who has more in common with Trump & Elon than any of us. I'm running to replace him. Are you with me?

The guy who covered up a kid being murdered thinks we will trust him with our children.
When it comes to our adolescents, it’s either going to be adults or the algorithms that raise our kids. No child under the age of 16 should have access to social media. TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and others are too powerful, too addictive, too alluring and too often target our

It would be nice to get real solutions on the cost of living Housing is more expensive Layoffs are increasing Electricity prices are spiking Grocery prices are nuts Instead we are shutting down roundabouts instead of helping working Houstonians keep money in their pocket.
We’ve heard residents, pedestrians, and local businesses loud and clear. This broken roundabout at Patton and Irvington has caused chaos for too long. We’re fixing it and bringing real solutions to the Near Northside.

Just be up front, and say you don’t actually care about winning Trump voting Latino voters in Texas, and you dislike that their perspectives matter. It’s more efficient.
They literally voted for the people currently terrorizing them and their communities. Even when Republicans told Latinos they would do it, they preferred Republicans deporting them to a Black woman leading them. We’re gonna speak the truth, they can be mad all they want.

Hear that lazy reporters
Progressive in energy ≠ progressive in action. In New York & all over the country, we’re seeing candidates framed as “progressive” without a platform centered around uplifting the material conditions of the working class. Don’t say “progressive” before you see the policy.

Unselfish and amazing
That’s why today, I am making the difficult decision to step aside so we on the left can consolidate behind a unified progressive candidacy.

One of the issues in the party is that there are people who support the establishment and people who don’t. But many progressives make the mistake of conflating voters affiliated with the establishment with the establishment itself. That’s not healthy or fair. It is

I’m tempted to just splice this with her initial ad, Trump talking about affordability, and make an actually good launch version, lol.
Jasmine Crockett: I don't know who disagrees with the fact that affordability is a real thing, except for the president who says it's a Democratic hoax... my message is real simple; I'm looking out for you, your survival, and the survival of your kids.
