BREAKING: Angela Alsobrooks just won the Democratic primary for US Senate in Maryland! The choice in Maryland is clear: Electing Angela Alsobrooks will stop Republicans from taking control of the Senate, and ensure that Republican Larry Hogan’s party cannot pursue their dangerous agenda like passing a national abortion ban.

Despite all the disfunction on Capitol Hill, the Congressional Black Caucus stands united. Congrats to my good friend and Maryland’s newest Congressman, Glenn Ivey! @glenniveymd #Congress #HakeemJeffries not #KevinMcCarthy ✊🏿

FWIW, as a former Republican who has some sense of what Democratic attacks work near the end of election campaigns: Every Democratic candidate should watch this clip—and the speech of which it was a part—and make that message his or her own. h/t @Acyn

To embarrass Northern liberals and humiliate Black people, southern White Citizens Councils started their so-called "Reverse Freedom Rides," giving Black people one-way tickets to northern cities with false promises of jobs, housing, and better lives. jfklibrary.org/asset-viewer/…

Just a few months ago I literally had to explain to Republican members of Congress how periods work. Their complete and utter incompetence is now killing women and pregnant people across the US. There remains no legitimate grounding or basis to force birth in the United States.
‘6 weeks pregnant means 2 weeks late for your period’ — Watch @AOC school Gov. Greg Abbott on the problems with Texas' new abortion law

I will explain this to you slowly: exercising our right to protest is not obstruction of Congress nor an attempt to overturn democracy. If one were a heinous enough person to do that, they’d likely seek a pardon for it too. But only one of us here has done that. And it ain’t me

How I see it. THOMAS: Impeachable. KAVANAUGH: Perjurer. GORSUCH: Stolen seat. BARRETT: Stolen seat. ALITO: Garden-variety sociopath.

Having considered the financial challenges facing our campaign in the coming weeks, my running mate Nancy Navarro and I have made the difficult, yet necessary, decision to suspend our campaign activities, effective immediately.
