30 years ago today, the Violence Against Women Act was signed into law. Written and championed by then-Senator Biden, this landmark legislation transformed the way our nation prevents and addresses violence against women and provides justice and support for survivors.

Does anyone else agree that we must keep the memory of what happened on J6...on the front burner during this election year? Too people seem to have forgotten the true toll of Trump's treachery that day! Remember what Trump did before you think about voting for him! 🤔

I hope every California voter living in a toss-up House district - and there are several of them (#CA22, #CA27, #CA13, #CA45, #CA41, #CA40, #CA47, #CA03) - heard Donald Trump threaten to let the state burn to the ground if he becomes President.
Trump: The automobile industry is dead. The water coming here is dead, and Gavin Newscum is going to sign those papers. And if he doesn't sign those papers, we won't give him money to put out all his fires. If we don’t give him the money, he’s got problems

BREAKING: A Republican super PAC runs shockingly antisemitic ads in Michigan attacking Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff for being Jewish — horrifying voters. There really is no bottom with MAGA… The Future Coalition PAC has now spent close to $60,000 on YouTube ads aggressively pointing out that Emhoff is Jewish alongside images of the Israeli flag. The ads make sure to repeatedly refer to Emhoff as Harris’ "top advisor" in an effort to imply some kind of sinister manipulation. The ads lean into the "dual loyalty" trope that falsely insists that all Jews are more loyal to Israel than to the United States. The ads include several images of Emhoff in a yarmulke and show him visiting the Auschwitz concentration camp. "Kamala Harris is a strong leader for these difficult times. And joining Kamala will be her husband and top adviser, Doug Emhoff. Doug Emhoff, who would be the first Jewish presidential spouse ever,” says one ad. "Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff: making history, standing up for what’s right, supporting Israel.” Another ad states that Harris has "chosen a side" and will pick "Israel and the Jewish people" "again and again." Since Republicans have no popular policies to run on they're resorting to bigotry as usual. These people have nothing to offer America but hatred and division. We stand with Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff! Please retweet and ❤️ if you are disgusted by Republican antisemitism — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new pro-democracy social network that is exploding in popularity because Twitter and Facebook are trying to stop its growth — which is only making Tribel grow even faster.

VP Kamala Harris stands with LGBTQ community. She was one of the first people in America who performed marriage ceremonies for the LGBTQ community. Kamala believe in America's freedoms unlike Trump and his MAGA minions. Agree? Use the meme with a post. #VoteHarrisWalz

BREAKING: After being accused of being unhinged and not talking about his policies at the debate, Trump just now went off on Kamala Harris at a California Press Conference, claiming she's lying about working at McDonalds, even though she DID work at McDonalds. How the heck can people think this guy actually should run this country again?
