Really hoping that Sen. Booker overtakes the 24 hours and 18 minute record held by Strom Thurmond for his protest of the Civil Rights Act of 1957 to make this our nation's longest legislative protest.

Today, the richest man on the planet stood in front of the Resolute Desk and complained that federal workers were an "unelected" branch of government with "more power than any elected representative."

Meanwhile, he bought his way into the Oval Office and arguably has more power than the President.

You often hear the Right complain of the Left's politicization of tragedy, but no one seems to politicize tragedy more than Donald Trump.

Elon Musk just spoke at an AfD rally in Germany and said he thinks Germans focus too much on "past guilt" and need to "move beyond that."

If it walks like a Nazi, salutes like a Nazi, and talks like a Nazi, it's a Nazi.

Congress conferred full birthright citizenship to Native Americans in 1924, already absurd to have taken so long (or any time at all), but now Trump wants to question even that.

How could there be any group of people more entitled to citizenship on this land than Native Americans?

1 day after receiving a pardon from Trump for his actions in the Jan. 6th insurrection, Daniel Ball was arrested on a firearm charge. Others pardoned were celebrating that they could now buy guns.

The connection between extremist threats to our democracy & firearms in America is clearer than ever.

The shooting today at Antioch High School in Nashville was absolutely terrible, and absolutely preventable.

For reference, Donald Trump shut down the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention as one of his first official acts.
