Guns are the leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 18 and 20. This demographic also commits gun homicides at triple the rate of people over the age of 21.

Join me for a fundraiser for @leelagray.bsky.social, a retired Army Brigadier General who won her Dem primary last night to represent Florida’s 13th Congressional District. Leela is taking on my Congresswoman, MAGA Republican Anna Paulina Luna, in November. RSVP: secure.actblue.com/donate/0825sw
Rep Lauren Underwood was the first Black person, first woman, and first millennial elected to represent her Illinois district, which she flipped from red to blue, defeating a four-term GOP incumbent. She’s had 14 bills signed into law by both D and R presidents. She’s the future.
Yesterday, my NIH IMPROVE Act passed the House unanimously! The next step? Getting it passed in the Senate. When I came to Congress, my goal was simple: end pregnancy-related deaths. This funding gets us one step closer to ending these maternal health disparities.

Wisconsin voters should decide this primary. Not billionaire MAGA donors. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/15/u...
For eight years, Governor Tony Evers has used his veto power to block GOP bills that would have restricted abortion access, removed environmental regulations, and a $3 billion tax cut that would have reduced the state’s ability to fund schools, health care, and local governments.
This race will have significant down ballot consequences. All 99 seats in the assembly are up for election. To win control, Dems only need to gain 5 seats. Seventeen of 33 Senate seats are on the ballot. Dems only need 2 seats for control. Instead, we may be looking at a Republican trifecta.
"I never would and never will criticize Mao Zedong… one of the great leaders of this world... who changed the entire universe … There was a lot of fucking excess... but China would not exist without Mao." Mao’s rule resulted in 40M deaths.
Looks like this is the Dem Senate candidate in Maine, so let’s all get on board and support the candidate in Maine: www.jacksonformaine.com
“The angst speaks to a concern from some longstanding residents in rapidly gentrifying neighborhoods where democratic socialism is gaining a foothold that is being driven by a mostly white young movement that supports the Palestinian cause against Israel.” www.nytimes.com/2026/07/19/n...
Before plagiarizing Shirley Chisholm, Hasan Piker says, “We don’t need those Democrats anymore!” meaning anyone who isn’t a socialist. He is a dangerous, hateful extremist and anyone campaigning with him should be held accountable by voters.
Dressed like Mao and talking about how much he hates the majority of Democrats as an invited guest of @collegedemocrats.bsky.social Our party having a normal one.
Norman drew his weapon after a conversation about domestic abuse legislation turned to a debate over gun violence prevention policies. He laid the gun on the table for about 5-10 minutes, stating, "I'm not going to be a Gabby Giffords.” abc7news.com/post/congres...
Ah yes, the man who pulled out a gun during a meeting with Moms Demand Action volunteers.

Conservatives in 2000: Mothers are saints and zygotes are full fledged human beings who deserve voting rights. Conservatives in 2026: Mothers are dirty whores and babies are cum trophies.
GOP candidate Brandon Herrera on moms advocating politically: “Just because you let somebody creampie you doesn’t mean I have to give a shit about your political opinions. The fact that you kept your cum trophy doesn’t make you any less wrong about the dumb shit they you say.”
ICE agents must immediately suspend most vehicle stops during enforcement operations nationwide, except in cases involving serious criminal targets. The change is temporary while ICE provides additional training on vehicle-stop tactics.

Also, gotta love that Ro spreads the blame to a woman Senator and a women’s reproductive rights group but not, you know, Bernie Sanders.
Ro Khanna is the ONLY Platner endorser in Congress to publicly express regret over his decision. And all he said was, “ I wasn’t the only one. You had Planned Parenthood. You had Senator Warren. You had the entire Democratic Party. But I did get that call wrong.” www.notus.org/congress/thi...
