Trump wants to subvert our free & fair elections. He could not be clearer about this if he tried. So let me say this: Trump's fantasy of nationalizing our elections will go NOWHERE in Congress. Democrats will fight to protect our elections and remain VIGILANT.

Hell no. This is nothing more than an attempt to intimidate voters and fulfill Trump’s promise to “take over” elections. We will fight back.

Today, we honor Rosa Parks on what would have been her 113th birthday. In refusing to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus, Ms. Parks propelled the Civil Rights movement forward. May her bravery continue to inspire us all to keep pushing for a nation with justice for all.

Is Trump finally figuring out that the Koch operation (Leo/McGahn) really picked “his” Supreme Court justices; that Trump was their chump. Trump the chump! Hysterical.

One year after the catastrophic Eaton and Palisades fires, survivors are still facing significant challenges with their insurance claims. I am calling on the largest insurance companies to ensure survivors receive the compensation they're entitled to, and without further delay. No more hurdles.

NIH banned fetal tissue research to appease anti-abortion extremists—and at a committee hearing, the NIH Director couldn't provide scientific evidence to prove otherwise. I demanded to know how many projects will be halted by this anti-abortion policy decision.

Journalists hold power accountable, and this is NOT the time for sweeping layoffs. When newsrooms like the Washington Post shrink, our democracy suffers. It’s hard to hold power to account when you’ve laid off hundreds of staffers.

Happy to hear that 700 federal immigration agents are leaving Minnesota. But the questions we need to ask are, where will they show up next? And will the remaining 2,000 agents in MN finally change their tactics?

Emphasis on the BS. Pete Hegseth’s attacks on women in combat roles are a pathetic and misogynistic distraction that makes us less safe. Real leaders focus on readiness and retention, not culture-war stunts.

Big, profitable corporations often pay a lower tax rate than ordinary people like teachers and firefighters. Small businesses are paying more while massive corporations use loopholes to pay nothing. Let’s close those loopholes and make corporations pay their fair share.

I’m incredibly disturbed that Trump is mentioned over 1,000 times in the latest Epstein files. The DOJ is grossly mishandling this by not releasing ALL the files. The American people deserve transparency, and the victims deserve justice.

OpenAI's CFO suggested that the government could be a "backstop" if they can’t pay their bills. YOUR tax dollars as their "backstop." Meanwhile, OpenAI pays its employees an average of $1.5 MILLION dollars a year in stock compensation. Wow. That's just wrong.

A new report just revealed that 200,000 Georgians have already lost their health care because of GOP cuts. Republicans in DC kicked Georgians off their health care to give their donors a tax cut. I’m not ok with that.

ICE’s abuses go beyond the headlines. Residents are afraid to go to schools, to grocery stores, to even step outside. Agents are patrolling the streets like a military operation. A 20% reduction is not enough. All of ICE needs to leave Minneapolis now.

A devastating day for the paper of record in our nation's capital. Bezos just spent $40M sucking up to Trump with Amazon's 'Melania', but is now cutting a third of @washingtonpost.com staff – including much of the international & local teams – for "budget" reasons? (1/2)

Autonomous vehicle companies say their cars can do it all. But AVs still rely on remote human beings to navigate dangerous driving situations. We know nothing about who these people are, where they are, or how often they’re telling the AV what to do. I’m demanding answers.

Finally. This is an important first step, but there’s still work to do. This administration and its agents need to be held accountable for their campaign of reckless violence. It's time to get ICE off all our streets.

How can anyone believe Trump’s claims that ICE crackdowns are about crime when ICE is busy detaining preschoolers like Liam? Kids should be in school and safe at home with their families—not in detention centers 1,000 miles from home. It’s cruel. youtu.be/0gMqWklcuoI
