Super late to the party on this, but I don’t think it matters what kind of bullets that cop shot the Australian reporter with. Cops have no business shooting reporters in the first place.

You can't call immigrants lazy moochers looking for government handouts and then round them up at Home Depots where you know they are looking for work.

You can't say immigrants don't follow the rules and then round them up in courthouses where they are following the rules.

Get your lies straight.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

NGC 6302, also known as the Butterfly Nebula, is a remarkable example of how stars, as they age, can take on some nice shapes sometimes resembling flowers or insects.

Right now, we have an authoritarian president.

He called CNN "illegal." He is trying to encroach on the spending powers of Congress. He is going after the courts.

Trump does not respect our Constitution. He just wants more and more power for himself.

This is such a loss for Arizona and our Country. Chair Raul Grijalva has been a champion for progressive change his entire life. From the School Board to Congress, his leadership and voice inspired so many. Myself included.

Rest in Power, Chairman Grijalva.
Congressman Raúl Grijalva, who represents Arizona’s 7th Congressional District, has died, his office says.

Grijalva, who was 77, had been receiving treatment for cancer.

No. Now is not the time to play dead.

The Democrats have already played dead for too many years.

60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck. Millions of seniors are going hungry.

Now is the time to stand up for the working class of this country.

Netanyahu’s extremist government has halted ALL humanitarian aid into Gaza.

Starving children is a war crime.

UN leaders said: "International humanitarian law is clear: we must be allowed access to deliver vital lifesaving aid. We need to get aid in and the hostages out.”

Edward Coristine joined Elon Musk’s DOGE team at 19 but lost his Path Network internship in June 2022 after leaking proprietary information to a competitor. Following his dismissal, Coristine revealed on Discord that he still had system access and could have disrupted operations but chose not to.

47,000+ Palestinians killed. 111,000 injured.

Trump’s response? Forcibly expel Palestinians to make Gaza “a real estate development for the future. A beautiful piece of land.” 

No. Gaza must be rebuilt for the Palestinian people, not billionaire tourists.

This morning, I sent a letter to the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) regarding Elon Musk’s potential conflicts of interest.

Within minutes, the White House confirmed receipt.

By noon, President Trump fired the Director of OGE.

I want to know: Was this to prevent his answer?

I’m in Oversight Committee right now. Ranking Member Connolly just called for a vote to subpoena Elon Musk. Republicans out-number us on this committee, but many aren’t in the room. We’ll see who wins this vote. We deserve transparency and answers.

We are holding the Senate floor – and filibustering Donald Trump's nomination of Russ Vought.

I spoke for an hour about what they are doing, and how these disparate, destructive acts all fit together.

Hope you’ll watch.

They have to pay for the tax cuts for rich folks somehow.

We’re focused on feeding our kids.

Investing in our schools.

Making sure child care is affordable.

Regardless of the chaos unfolding in Washington, we’re making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up.

My timeline is full of people protesting in all 50 states, Senators speaking all night to filibuster Trump‘s cabinet nominees, and other Democrats getting in front of the camera to rally supporters and speak up.

On a night when my own tank is empty, these nationwide actions give me so much hope.

I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.

I cannot in good conscience support someone who denies and will dilute our public health protections, sow distrust in science, and oversee massive cuts to health care programs for vulnerable Americans.

Rock and roll was created by a Black woman — Sister Rosetta Tharpe.

Known as the Godmother of Rock and Roll, Sister Rosetta Tharpe was a singer, songwriter, and guitarist who served as inspiration for artists like Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash. We honor her as we still feel her influence today.
