Adam Toledo was 13. He was unarmed and had his hands up when the Chicago police shot and killed him. It's absolutely sickening that the police LIED about an "armed confrontation" when they shot him.
They killed a frightened, unarmed child and then slandered him.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott says the Uvalde shooter had a "mental health challenge" and the state needed to "do a better job with mental health."

Puerto Rico still hasn’t recovered from Hurricane Maria.

So, if you're listening to Donald Trump... STOP. The man is lying like always and doesn't understand how an election works. Take a nap. It's a better use of your time.
Just remember: Every vote must be counted because that's how democracy works. Let the math do its thing.

Another Fort Hood soldier has gone missing. This time it's 23-year-old Elder Fernandes.
What is happening at Fort Hood? When are our leaders gonna step in, shut this place down, and find out what the hell is going on? This is not normal.
Hey👋🏽,
We're so proud of the 8.2 million Latinos that already voted, and we're so proud of all of our people that are gonna cast their ballots today!
Remember, 3.7 million Latinos turned out in 2016.
