I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Senate Republicans don’t want to bring in Jack Smith to testify before the American people to ask him why he subpoenaed limited phone data on 8 co-conspirators to overturn the election, they just want a quick $1 million check from the taxpayers instead.

“The story of America has never been one of perfection—it has been one of persistence, self-correction, and conscience. Who we are is not fixed. But who we become is a choice.”
"I want to offer a different kind of reflection from an old veteran, one that doesn’t reduce service to a slogan but helps show its lived reality."

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.

No matter how they voted last night, every one of them has a say in maintaining Chuck Schumer and Dick Durbin as their caucus leaders. Every one of them is accountable here.

Rep. Jason Crow: "Trump and Republicans were the ones that shut this government down because they froze us out of negotiations. They literally recessed the House of Representatives over a month ago and haven't even opened the doors, so we can't even debate, vote, or negotiate."

What a huge victory for public safety in Virginia 👏👏👏

Congratulations to every gun safety champion who held and flipped important seats to regain this gun safety majority. Now it’s time to get to work and pass the laws we know save lives and fight crime.
Virginians have once again established a gun safety stronghold across the commonwealth! With the wins in the House of Delegates and the election of gun safety champion Governor-elect Spanberger, a safer future is finally within reach.

My brother Mike (pictured below) has been wandering the streets for days now. He keeps trying to hold pretend press conferences but then insists he doesn't know anything about anything. It's very sad!

If you have seen him, please let our family know!

- Increasing your healthcare costs
- Cutting SNAP
- Not paying workers

This is all thanks to the Republican shutdown.

Turns out the sweetheart deal that Trump's former Labor Secretary Alex Acosta gave Epstein back in 2008 was even worse than we thought. Epstein's emails show Acosta tanked an investigation that had Epstein dead to rights on money laundering, and other financial crimes.

Reporting in the Guardian corroborated in the Post- "The Pentagon has ordered thousands of specialized National Guard personnel to complete civil unrest mission training over the next several months..." indicating Trump’s effort to send military forces into urban centers could become the norm.
