“They came into the building understanding it was a daycare. They did not have a warrant. It is a violation of our rights. It is a violation of these children’s rights. They are terrorizing our community.” Trump’s ICE goons raided a damn daycare.

I hope I’m wrong but if we lose in November I think the main reason why will be the number of young men of all races that are no longer Democrats. There’s been a taboo about talking about this because we understandably are hesitant to make men a main point of conversation (given we have been for thousands of years) but we have a real problem to deal with. At this point with 60 days to go there isn’t much we can do to recover it other than turning out more young woman and trying to slow the departure of young men. I think a lot of this is caused by Covid and the epidemic of male loneliness in this country and the ensuing commodification through social media of misogyny. Long-term, we have a lot of work to do to provide positive examples of what actual masculinity looks like that is not defined by putting down women or other people, but by lifting others up and being a true leader.

I prosecuted sex predators. Trump is one. I shut down for-profit scam colleges. He ran one. I held big banks accountable. He's owned by them. I'm not just prepared to take on Trump, I'm prepared to beat him.

The Adirondack Land Trust just received a $3 million grant to develop 3.5 miles of wheelchair-accessible trails on two properties: along the Loj Rd. in Lake Placid and at the Glenview Preserve just north of Saranac Lake. northcountrypublicradio.org/…

Thank you to @VASenateDems for entrusting me in the role as the next Majority Leader. No one can fill @DickSaslaw’s shoes but I will work hard everyday to protect our majority and pass progressive legislation to benefit Virginians.

VIRGINIA- We have until 7 p.m. on Tuesday to spread the word and turn out the vote to save our Commonwealth. List to what Speaker-Emerita Pelosi and I said today- and RETWEET this so every Virginian hears our message before the polls close.

People insist on comparing other cities to NY. It’s a fool’s errand, especially around Halloween.

House Democrats are proud of the historic progress For The People that we delivered with the slimmest of majorities — but we are focused on the progress that we will make for the future when women candidates and women voters drive our victories in this election! -NP #WomenLEAD

Nancy Pelosi served 2,920 days as Speaker. Kevin McCarthy lasted 270 days as Speaker. That's 27 scaramuccis or 0.093 of a pelosi.

Challenge accepted, sir. In my latest for @opinion, I propose creating a children’s trust fund from the revenue collected from the estate tax. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Use the Estate Tax to Finance Early Childhood Education

No program can give the middle and working classes an equal chance to compete with the dynasty class, but the government can put a thumb on the scale for the better.

Sen. Kennedy praised affordable childcare as a goal but was skeptical of costs. “Fair question is: where’s the money gonna come from? Doc?” (I’m doc) My response is that tax cuts can’t achieve social policy, and they’ve had twenty years and trillions of dollars to prove it.
