I truly believe the creative parts in us need to be nourished whenever possible. I enjoyed visiting the REHAB Hospital of the Pacific to tour the facility, visit with staff, and chat with participants in the creative arts program who create beautiful artwork as part of their rehabilitation!

Thanks to Donald Trump and Washington Republicans’ cost-raising tariffs and war in Iran, Americans are spending more on nearly everything:

Yikes. Even the PolluterPage tees off on Trump’s Venezuela Oil Scam, comparing it to “The Godfather.” Once again, the Trump administration goes “gangster gong show.” Someone will pocket some mighty change, you can bet. www.wsj.com/opinion/trum...

“Lower prices on day one” has to be one of the most blatant and audacious lies ever told by a Presidential candidate in the history of this country. Georgia is now paying over $4,000 per household in tariffs. Outrageous.

This new information shows clearly how USPS sloppiness & incompetence are intended to create chaos—& sabotage mail in voting. I am demanding answers & accountability & thank @wbaidlaw.bsky.social for helping to bring forward the whistleblower’s account.

This brave whistleblower has disclosed dramatic details about USPS’ seemingly illegal plot to undermine November’s midterms. The system is purposefully designed to fail—& risk voting rights for millions of Americans who cast ballots by mail.

As our national debt sets new records, I’m cosponsoring the Billionaires Income Tax Act. It'll raise $50 billion every year to cut our deficit and fund critical priorities—while only impacting one out of every 400,000 Americans. We can't leave this crisis to our children.

Secretary Hegseth lacks the depth, skill, and experience to lead the Pentagon. At a time when America faces threats from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea, we can’t afford the failed leadership we have right now at the Department of Defense.

The perpetrators who are responsible for these acts of violence must be arrested, prosecuted, and held accountable. Violent attacks like these are unacceptable and exactly why comments like those of Itamar Ben Gvir are so dangerous.

Our thoughts are with Vincent Anthony Siqueiros, Cameron Davis Capara, and their family and friends. Two lives needlessly cut short by gun violence in a targeted attack on our city’s LGBTQ community. There’s no place for hate in Tucson.

Scammed some people and need a pardon? A tariff exception? A bank charter? If you’re a billionaire Trump donor, you may be in luck. But if you’re an American looking to save for retirement or invest in a company you like — the Trump Administration wants to keep you in the dark.

While Trump pushes to fast-track data centers, ratepayers across the PJM grid area are paying $37 BILLION more in their utility bills to subsidize the electricity needs of data centers. Once again, Trump puts the billionaire class ahead of working people.
