We need real solutions and bold investments to address the housing affordability crisis in America.

With the support of @DanielLurie and other great leaders, I introduced the Housing Boom Act to help spark a new housing boom across the country.

Travelers don’t need fancier outfits or new snacks. We need basic protections when flights are canceled. Infuriating that the Trump administration is prioritizing style over substance—while stripping away the rights passengers actually depend on.

Trump turned the Kennedy Center Honors, a nonpartisan celebration of the arts turned into a prop for his ego. Celebrities used as set dressing, and the whole thing staged like a campaign commercial. It’s not about honoring artists it’s about manufacturing optics. We ALL see it.

Great financial crisis? You mean when the housing market collapsed, banks went under, our GDP sank, the working class lost trillions in net worth and unemployment soared?

Seems like a repeat of the last time we tried to bully the world with isolationist tariffs.

Not good.

There is virtually no fed criminal law for wealthy people in America right now. Doesn’t exist. Trump’s DOJ either drops their charges or he pardons them. Anyone can buy their way out of prison for the right price on any charge, with crime victims left shattered with no justice.

🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

The border is not secure. What the hell is he talking about? Trump gutted the joint terrorism task force and the National Security Council. JFC
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

Gavin Newsom lit into an audience full of financial power brokers today, criticizing what he cast as their complicity with Trump’s agenda. He told attendees of the New York Times DealBook Summit that they should look into the kneepads he’s selling, in parody, to those “groveling to Trump’s needs.”

All corporate CEOs should understand: If you agree to attend an event at the White House, you are very likely to be filmed nodding appreciatively at a delusional racist rant. If you're ok with that, go. If not, you probably should stay away.
