Really enjoyed chatting with @SarahEMcBride on what Democrats need to focus on. We have a lot of stars in our party.

🇺🇸 En Estados Unidos:
- Presos por cada 100.000 habitantes: 542.
- Es una tasa unas 8 veces superior a la alemana.
- En 2023 había aproximadamente 1,83 MILLONES de personas encarceladas.
- No todas estaban cumpliendo una condena.
- En 2024, las cárceles locales tenían unas 658.700 personas detenidas.
- El 68% de ellas todavía no había sido condenado por los cargos correspondientes.
- Eso equivale a unas 450.700 personas.
- Algunas estaban esperando juicio.
- Otras permanecían detenidas por diferentes motivos judiciales.
- Durante un solo año se registraron 7,9 MILLONES de ingresos en cárceles locales. No necesariamente de personas distintas.
- La estancia media de quienes ingresaron y salieron durante ese periodo fue de 31 días.
- El 19% de los detenidos en cárceles locales estaba recluido por delitos menores.
- La tasa de encarcelamiento local de personas negras era cuatro veces la de personas blancas.
- Había 105.900 personas detenidas por incumplimientos de condiciones de libertad vigilada.
- Entre 2020 y 2024, el número de mayores de 65 años en cárceles locales aumentó un 80%.
- Y un 11% de las cárceles locales funcionaba por encima de su capacidad oficial.
Los datos tienen algo todavía más sorprendente.
En EE. UU. puedes estar en una cárcel local sin haber recibido todavía una sentencia condenatoria.
No todos los presos son delincuentes condenados.
Y no todas las cárceles albergan a personas que ya han sido juzgadas.
Unos llaman a esto mano dura contra el crimen.
Otros, encarcelamiento masivo.
¿Seguridad o un sistema penitenciario que ha ido demasiado lejos?

La cantidad de gente que Estados Unidos tiene en la CÁRCEL debería estudiarse.
🇪🇺 En Europa, presos por cada 100.000 habitantes:
🇩🇪 Alemania: 69
🇮🇹 Italia: 112
🇵🇹 Portugal: 121
🇪🇸 España: 126
🇫🇷 Francia: 131

Eu e Janja vivemos hoje um momento de muita emoção na Catedral Metropolitana de Manila, nas Filipinas. Visitamos a Capela de Nossa Senhora do Pilar, onde rezamos diante da imagem de Nossa Senhora Aparecida, padroeira do Brasil, doada pelo Santuário Nacional de Aparecida à Catedral como presente ao povo filipino.
Foi emocionante ver um símbolo tão querido da fé e da devoção do povo brasileiro atravessar oceanos e ser acolhido com tanto carinho tão longe de nossa terra. A presença de Nossa Senhora Aparecida em Manila é também um símbolo dos laços de amizade, fé e esperança que unem brasileiros e filipinos.
Fomos recebidos pelo monsenhor Rolando dela Cruz, reitor da Catedral de Manila, e pelo monsenhor brasileiro Guilherme Sanches, da Nunciatura Apostólica nas Filipinas. Tivemos também a alegria de compartilhar esse momento com religiosos brasileiros que estão nas Filipinas.
Saímos dessa visita com o coração cheio de gratidão. Que Nossa Senhora Aparecida continue abençoando nossos dois povos, aproximando nossos países e inspirando um futuro de paz, solidariedade e fraternidade.

At the @MajorityDems #WhatsNext Conference today, I shared my strong view that capitalism in America today is fundamentally broken for most people. How is it possible that there are nearly 10 million Americans working full time who are still so poor that they are on Medicaid and food stamps? At the same time, some people are buying $100 million homes, just to knock them down to build something bigger. It’s obscene. It’s immoral. And it’s not sustainable. #WhatsNext

There is a wave of decency sweeping through our political discourse. Many Republicans reached across the aisle to vote for goodness over toxicity, because they recognized our nation is bigger than Red vs. Blue.
Let's ride the wave to a better future.
Iowa Gov.-elect @RobSandIA told Democrats in Denver today how he won a red state: 200 public town halls where he handed the microphone to Republicans.
He opens each one by asking the crowd to applaud neighbors from the other party, then leads them in “America the Beautiful.”
Quoting St. Francis, he said actions speak louder than words. He told the story of giving the mic to Gary Leffler, one of his most persistent online critics, a few months before Election Day.
“There’s really only three people that don’t answer questions: criminals, liars, and politicians,” Sand said.

This is the big Alaska vote drop we’ve been waiting for! It confirmed what we’ve known for the past week and a half: Mary Peltola will be Alaska’s next U.S. senator, bringing Democrats to a sweet 56 seats—the most either party has held in the Senate since 2010!

Acaban de gritar a Abascal en Toledo:
"¿Por qué no te pones a trabajar? ¿Cuánto has trabajado? ¿Cuántos años cotizados llevas?".
Ha nacido un nuevo héroe. Orgullo y honor a él.

ALEXANDER: The implication that this policy is new or that it stems from efforts that began under Biden is demonstrably false.
TRUMP: Who said that, you?
ALEXANDER: It's been on the FAA's website since 2013. Why didn't you change the policy during your first administration

This is an all time embarrassing press conference. Haven't seen something this embarrassing from this administration in, well, days.

Colom ran a masterclass campaign and will be very tough to beat in 2032. All he needs to do is win ~8-12% of White Rs and he has a lot of leeway with his voting record to earn their support.

Another county has fallen to Democrats in the California governor's race after today's updates.
Xavier Becerra now leads in Tulare County, which has voted Republican in every presidential election since 1968.

No, you’re crying
Talarico: On election night, as I was delivering my victory speech, I noticed a woman up front. The lights were bright, so I couldn’t see her face, but I was struck by her attention, how closely she was listening, how much this moment meant to her.
As I finished speaking, I looked down again, and she had made her way to the front of the stage. I bent down to shake her hand, and I realized who she was.
She looked me in the eyes, and she said, “I’m so glad you have my father’s job.”
Lucy Baines Johnson was there to see another public school teacher take her dad’s Senate seat.

Stranded in Denver with my friends at @MajorityDems
I ain’t scared to drive back to Kansas City tonight. Did that last before the ‘23 NFL Draft in Kansas City. We’ll see how this goes.
