26 years ago, we eradicated measles. Now, this year alone, there have been over 4,000 cases, 40+ outbreaks, and people have died. RFK Jr.'s anti-vax rhetoric & conspiracy theories have consequences. He must resign NOW. Vaccines are safe & effective. Period.

"No new wars" turned out to be one of the most egregious lies ever told by a presidential candidate.
- SW
Yup. “The bipartisan legislation, unveiled last week, represents the most aggressive response yet from Washington to data centers amid growing backlash over their energy and environmental impacts.”

We met with Coloradans who are fed up with soaring utility bills. Here’s what we need to do to make energy cheaper: ➳ End Trump’s illegal war in Iran ➳ Fight for energy assistance programs ➳ Make Big Tech foot the bill for their data centers, not Colorado families

More open disclosure, not concealment— insisting on legal rights & resisting all Trump’s bullying & threats. Appeasement is not a strategy.

Trump’s latest investigative ploy is another sign that Yale & other schools need to stand strong— together— not bend & negotiate. thehill.com/homenews/edu...

From the shores of Lake Superior to the surface of the moon, Margaret Hamilton expanded what we believe is possible. Our thoughts are with her family and all who loved her. May she rest in peace.

When the guidance computer was overwhelmed in the final seconds of descent, the system she and her team built kept the landing on track. In 2016, she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and across her life she showed generations of women and girls that they belong in science and technology.

Michigan lost a quiet giant this week. Margaret Hamilton, who grew up in the Upper Peninsula and graduated from Hancock High School, went on to lead the team that wrote the onboard flight software that put Apollo 11 on the moon.

Another egregious lie from Donald Trump: days after he promised to stop wasting your taxpayer dollars on his campaign ads, another ad aired that still says it’s “Paid for by the U.S. Government.” WATCH:

You shouldn’t have to pay for AI data centers. The Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act will hold data centers accountable for their grid costs and lower utility bills for families.

The need for federal guardrails around AI is absolutely urgent. AI should be safe, transparent, and actually benefit working people–not just billionaires. I was in Olympia to hear what WA leaders are already doing to regulate AI.

A beautiful evening in Northfield for the Governor’s Pheasant Opener. Pheasant hunting is a Minnesota tradition and this year we’re celebrating new public land: a 101-acre island added to the Circle Lake Wildlife Management Area in Rice County.

We went from sanctioning Russian oil to buying it in three weeks. Instead of ending his disastrous war in Iran, Trump is now funding Russia's war in Ukraine. We used to hold dictators and autocrats accountable. Now our president negotiated a deal to fund Putin's unjust war.

Putin told Iran the locations of our warships. Today, Trump rewarded him by lifting sanctions and allowing American dollars to fuel Russia’s war machine. Our troops are in harm’s way, and the President cut a deal with the adversary putting a target on their backs.

We have to put an end to it, and hold those responsible, accountable.

Yesterday in New York, ICE agents shot yet another person. This time, while his on 5-year-old child was in the same car. From coast to coast, ICE's brutality continues to traumatize our communities. This administration is using your tax dollars to implement their violent anti-immigrant agenda. 🧵

Yet another person has been shot by ICE — this time in New York City while his 5-year-old son was sitting in the back seat of the car. There must be a full, independent investigation into this incident - the American people deserve answers and accountability now.

As Governor, I will take on gang violence by establishing a Regional Gang Violence Task Force, help local police hire & retain more officers, & make sure police and first responders have the resources they need. I’ll bring my experience as a former prosecutor to the job of keeping Minnesotans safe.

Now, an on-camera death will make him a martyr and cause célèbre enshrined in history. This is likely the very last thing I imagine the families of the slain would want.

Just as terrorist groups used on-camera executions as propaganda for their cause, this video will be used in recruitment videos by America's enemies for decades to come. It also gives Hasan exactly what he likely wanted when he walked onto Ft. Hood and started shooting.
- ES
This has never happened before in America, and for good reason — it's the kind of thing we got used to seeing from the Taliban or ISIS, not the U.S. military.
- ES
Nidal Hasan's crimes at Fort Hood were horrific. His actions destroyed families and he deserves no sympathy. But Pete Hegseth's decision to livestream his execution is not about Mr. Hasan — it's all about all of us.

It’ll do next to nothing to lower fuel costs, but it the costs to our security and our standing in the world will be enormous.

Lifting sanctions against Russian diesel as they step up their attacks on Ukraine again shows there are no values underlying Trump’s foreign policy and there’s no limit to what he’s willing to do to help his political prospects.

Trump is doing a deal with the devil to try to help his flailing political fortunes from the shockingly high diesel prices caused by his own reckless, illegal war in the Middle East.
