I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

Today the Pentagon censured Senator Mark Kelly and moved to strip part of his earned military retirement benefits for stating the truth.

This administration is trying to convince Americans that truth is whatever it says it is—even when the evidence is plainly in front of us.

This is the exact opposite of what Trump said he'd do. Instead of putting a stop to endless wars and lowering prices, he's threatening new conflicts and making your life even more expensive.

ICE is no longer arresting immigrants only. They are arresting anyone who films or speaks out. Sending them to concentration camps. I have been criticized for my analogy to 1930’s Germany. That is what we are witnessing.

So Trump decided that the current regime in Venezuela stays. That the people don't get the winner of the last Presidential election. He's keeping the corruption, the thugs, the secret police, all the powers of a dictatorship. Trump is a fk up. And he'll fk this up like everything else he touches.
