Trump’s talk of nationalizing elections is not a distraction from the Epstein files; it is happening. His legal team has pursued this since 2016 and he has said that only elections he wins are fair. More than 60 cases in the 2020 election, including those reviewed by judges he appointed, found (1/2)

As a longtime proponent of nuclear energy, I am totally against exempting them from environmental review. To do will undermine confidence & could be dangerous. Nuclear is the only form of base power that releases no regulated pollutants or greenhouse gases while producing power.

I am sickened by what is happening in Minneapolis and my heart goes out to the families of Alex Pretti & Renee Good & everyone else who has been affected by this crackdown. When you give men military weapons, camouflage, little training & allow them to mask their identity (1/3)

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

In perhaps the most breathtaking abrogation of its responsibilities, the Trump administration is now openly showing its disdain for human life. By deciding that the Environmental Protection Agency will no longer consider the impact of regulations on human health, the Administration is ignoring(1/5

The mission of the EPA is to “protect human health and the environment”. The agency has saved tens of thousands of lives in its history. To see this administration blatantly ignore Congress & put American lives in jeopardy is unconscionable. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/c...
