Again, political violence has no place in this country.
I probably don’t agree with Charlie Kirk on a damn thing, but that doesn’t matter - he’s a husband and a father.
This is despicable and can’t become our new normal.

The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible.

The Democrats who forged Trump’s signature on that card and put it in Epstein’s papers 22 years ago to frame him when he was president in 2025 sure were diabolical.

Political violence is always immoral and always counterproductive for a healthy democracy. It solves nothing. It only leads to further violence and ultimately enables scapegoating of vulnerable communities. Committing acts of violence against those who disagree with us helps no one.

This is a perfect statement. Thank you, Congresswoman.
Some in Congress can’t muster maturity when they have a transgender colleague. But members of the U.S. Armed Forces can—and have.
My NDAA amendments repeal Trump’s cruel trans military ban & restore retirement benefits to trans veterans forced out of service.

"Harvard can't use race as a factor in admissions, but ICE can use race as a factor in detentions" is a retrenchment essentially to a pre-Civil War understanding of the Constitution. It's vanishingly few steps removed from "Latinos have no rights which the white man is bound to respect."
