I want to sincerely thank every single one of my Senate Democratic colleagues who came to the floor, not to just support me, but to share incredibly powerful stories and ask important questions their constituents want answers to.

I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader.

We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

Donald Trump was not elected because people loved him.

He was elected because he promised to bring down prices.

He's already breaking that promise.

You have two options: fight or flight.

We choose to FIGHT!

We will protect Medicaid!

We will protect our Democracy.

We will protect our constitution.

Folks defending Gavin Newsom for platforming extreme seditionists reminds me of the people who defended Tulsi Gabbard for supporting Assad and Putin.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

Trump is slashing another 1,000 jobs at NOAA.

The National Weather Service, which is part of NOAA, provides life saving weather forecasting in the US.

A study found that for every $1 invested in NWS, it produces $73 in value to Americans. 

Again, this isn't about efficiency.
The US agency that monitors weather will cut another 1,000 jobs, AP sources say
Multiple sources tell The Associated Press that the Trump Administration is starting another round of job cuts — this one more than 1,000 — at the nation’s weather, ocean and fisheries agency.

Per @pattymurray.bsky.social:

“I will not vote to weaken my power to fight for WA state.

I will not vote to turn YOUR taxpayer dollars into Trump & Elon's personal slush funds.

I will vote NO. We should pass my short term CR, avoid a shutdown, and do our jobs.”

He said he would easily end the war 24 hours after taking office, he knew exactly what to say to Putin to make it happen, and it would just take one conversation. Here we are two months in and all he has is bullshit while the killing continues. bsky.app/profile/atru...
REPORTER: Is there anything you can do to pressure Russia to accept a ceasefire?

TRUMP: Yeah. We can. But I hope it's not gonna be necessary.
