D'Angelo's music leaves behind a powerful legacy, one that will endure for years to come.

Tragically, he was taken far too soon by pancreatic cancer.

Black Americans face the highest risk of developing this deadly disease.

GOP put a man in charge of HHS that was responsible for 1/3rd of all of the COVID misinformation. Now they can’t be bothered to show up to do what they’re still being paid for. Time for the Dems to dig into and push Medicare for all.

D'Angelo did such beautiful work, and lovely collaborations. I'm so sorry that he passed away at such a young age. There is promising work being done with mRNA vaccines and pancreatic cancer, and I hope that we can move this vital research forward.

Hey Mike Johnson – the more you facilitate a cover-up and do everything in your power to prevent the release of the Epstein files – the more your constituents, the American public, and the whole world are going to believe you are guilty of the exact same types of crimes as Jeffrey Epstein.

No Kings' Day protesting is as American as apple pie.

What's not American is bailing out Argentina with 20 billion dollars while military members wait in line at food banks.

Powell: "Both supply and demand in the labor market have come down so sharply so quickly. The fact that the unemployment rate has barely moved is kind of remarkable."

Our nation’s story can’t be told without the story of the Indigenous people who first called this land home.

On Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor their histories, contributions, and resilience. We must continue to work towards a future rooted in justice and equality.

Please don’t back down. People need to see more of this strength and resolve from Democrats. And less of stuff like house Democrats signing resolutions honoring Charlie Kirk because they were afraid to be painted as political violence supporters.

8/ But Trump doesn't want to end the shutdown. Because he thinks he's a king and he doesn't believe the law applies to him. He thinks he has extra powers in a shutdown. He doesn't.

But the longer Republicans boycott talks, the more the shutdown will hurt. So it's their move.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

And that’s why we’re fighting back.
