A right-wing extremist violently assaulted Paul Pelosi today. My prayers are with Paul Pelosi, Speaker Pelosi and their family.

The suspect in the attack of Paul Pelosi has been confirmed to be a 42-year-old right-wing extremist who spread 2020 election conspiracy theories, COVID disinformation, and hatred of the Jan 6 committee.

Why are Dems expanding the lead on the generic ballot? Because Dems are putting #PeopleOverPolitics and focused on lower costs, better-paying jobs and safer communities.
What are Republicans focused on? Inserting local politicians between you and your doctor.

Why are Democrats ahead in the new NBC poll? Because Dems are putting #PeopleOverPolitics and focused on lower costs, better-paying jobs and safer communities.

Iran and China don’t post their secrets on the internet. US patriots risk their lives to help our national security. These classified documents that Trump illegally took could also reveal sources and methods.
Donald Trump was, and remains, a walking national security hazard.

There are people in the field, right now, putting their lives on the line to get crucial intelligence back to the US so we can protect ourselves. Trump isn't just risking THEIR lives by stealing documents. He's risking YOUR life by compromising security. washingtonpost.com/national-secur

Republicans have an awful lot to say about inflation — until it’s time to join Democrats to fight price gouging and lower your costs!
It’s almost as if Republicans don’t really care about cutting costs and are just using your pain for political gain. Almost.
Vote them out. -NP

Nearly two years later the GOP Big Lie Party still cannot explain who stole the election nor how it was purportedly done. Was it Hugo Chavez? Italian satellites? 7 million dead people who voted?
Donald Trump lost. That’s what happened.
