Tyre Nichols should be alive. So should Atatiana Jefferson, Antwon Rose, Mike Brown, and Philando Castile.
Police violence is crime.
We cannot say that we care about crime, but then do nothing over and over and over when the crime is committed by a police officer.

Representation matters.
We didn’t come to Congress to be silent.
We came to Congress to be a voice for families who are displaced in refugee camps and those seeking justice around the world.
Because that’s what this child survivor of war would have wanted.

underrated that Hakeem Jeffries is, instead of focusing on leading a minority that’s a minority because of Kathy Hochul and the New York Democratic machine, stumping for a garbage anti-worker nominee advanced by Kathy Hochul and the New York Democratic machine

2022 was one of the deadliest for Palestinians in memory. Now, Netanyahu’s new far-right government, led by racist extremist Ben-Gvir, has already murdered 7 Palestinians including 3 children. We can't keep sending billions each year to an apartheid state violating human rights.
