I am an American. My roots run deep - back to the Mayflower according to family legend - but the great thing about being an American is that everyone, from the first settler to those who became citizens today, is equal. You are all every bit as much Americans as I am. So stay strong!

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is on hour eight of his marathon speech opposing Republicans’ budget bill.
Jeffries argued that the House should represent American needs, a standard he says the bill does not meet.

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com thanks to your guest Wendy Sherman for her closing…We still have war raging in Ukraine…we have people suffering in Gaza. I believe trump is using Iran as a distraction. We still have ICE violence in the street. Let’s not forget the chaos trump has created.

My kids know an American flag when they see one – but they don't yet know all that it represents.
When they're old enough, here is what I'm going to tell them:

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

When 49.8% of voters elected a would-be dictator, we knew there would be bad days ahead. This is one of them. He’s determined to destroy Harvard if he can’t control it. And bribery is the main course at tonight’s dinner for his crypto pals.
Stay strong, folks. This country is worth fighting for.

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

The GOP's budget would make brutal cuts to food assistance and our colleagues won't shield veterans from their cruelty.
Veterans are not waste. They're not fraud. And they're not abuse.
