James Talarico, a Democrat, is quoting Scripture in his victory speech, and the crowd is cheering.
Democrats don’t hate religion. We hate watching people weaponize it.
Faith isn't the problem. Using God as a weapon against your neighbors is.

Today, Haley Stevens endorsed Donald Trump’s most savage policies—the brutalizing of Hispanics, the killing of US citizens in American streets, the launching of endless wars, the gutting of Michigander’s health care, his war on civil rights, higher gas prices, more expensive groceries, less health care, and endless corruption. A vote for Mike Rogers is a vote for Donald Trump. End of story.

We're all paying the price after Republicans increased the cost of living - look no further than an order at Waffle House.

I believe this will be considered one of the most important videos in US history from this time.

The fact that Trump will remove tariffs to help Republicans win elections, but he won’t remove tariffs to help Americans afford necessities, tells you exactly what his priorities are.
BREAKING:
The United States is expected to remove 50% tariffs on some Canadian products in a bid to help Maine Senator Susan Collins and other Republicans in the upcoming midterm elections.

If Jalen Coker indeed can’t play tonight, America should expect to see plenty of John Metchie tonight.
I caught up with the Panther receiver about his journey back to college qb, and how he’s found a new home in Carolina.

I’m not sure any goalie has wanted to score more than Igor.
It was obviously gonna happen eventually… but what a moment for it

You never know when your chance will come. But when it does, you better be ready.
In the wake of Jonathon Brooks' injury, #Panthers RB Tre Tyus is set to make his NFL debut on Sunday.
He isn't letting the moment get too big, but he's ready.

“Instead of respecting the law, those in power invoke it when it serves their interests and disregard it when it restrains them, treating even justice itself as though it were a commodity to be bought and sold.” — Pope Leo XIV

I can understand why Americans chose McCain or Romney over Obama, Bush over Gore or Kerry, or Bush Sr./Dole over Clinton. I may disagree, but I can understand those choices.
What I will never understand, for as long as I live, is choosing Trump over virtually anyone else.

The Statue of Liberty was restored in the 80s, the Washington Monument needed repairs in 2011 after an earthquake, again in 2019 for elevators and security, and the Lincoln Memorial restoration began in 2016
Not a single location was renamed for the administration overseeing it.

Reminder to those who apparently don't know: the Kennedy Center was financially robust, with many private donors, before this administration undermined it, chased out the National Symphony, Washington Opera and others. Trump has forced it into bankruptcy out of sheer vanity.
The Kennedy Center was a beloved Washington institution, enjoyed by millions of people. It has been destroyed for no real reason. Just vanity, carelessness, indifference.

I just watched a 45 minute conversation with @HillaryClinton on @Morning_Joe.
How anyone could listen to that intelligent, serious discussion and think the US made a better choice by electing Donald Trump in 2016 is something I never will understand.

The 40-hour work week. The weekend itself. Lifesaving safety standards.
Organized labor has changed our country for the better.
This Labor Day, we recognize the achievements of our unions and the workers who make the American way of life possible.

I’ve said it my entire career: the middle class built America. And unions built the middle class. To every worker who's ever punched a clock, worked a double, or walked a line for fair wages – and to everyone who stands up for them, at the bargaining table, in the statehouse, or on the shop floor: thank you. This country runs in large part because of you.
