Russia's kidnapping of innocent Ukrainian children is an atrocity. These kids are taken from home—often with false promises of safety—and many are forced into military training camps. We must work to find them and demand Russia send them home.

SHARE this as a reminder to EVERY member of our military:

“We don't take an oath to a King.

We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator”

“We take an oath to the Constitution."

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

Let this sink in.

Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence.

During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.

This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”.

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️

They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador.

Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose.

No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

The GOP’s reconciliation bill is one of the worst environmental bills I’ve ever seen.

It guts public input, silences tribal and community voices, slashes environmental protections, and hands sacred and public lands to the lowest bidder with no accountability.

Last night was the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

In a Dec. report, the NIH listed numerous climate change and health projects it was funding, including research to examine the health impacts of the Maui wildfires and to develop models to predict dengue virus transmission by mosquitos.

The Trump administration has since pulled the report offline.
