Today, we remember the students and staff whose lives were taken at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School eight years ago.

Out of this horrible tragedy, young people started a movement to end gun violence, and Democrats will never stop fighting alongside them.

Trump's masked thugs immediately labelled Renee Good and Alex Pretti as “domestic terrorists.” Now this.

All they do is lie.

ICE might be leaving Minnesota, but it’s time for accountability and reform.

Trump can lie all he wants, but he doesn’t get to rewrite reality.

Republicans allowed health care premiums to double for millions of Americans. Now families have to choose: Put food on the table or pay for their health care.

This is what the Republican Party did.
Trump: Nobody's doing more for health care than the Republican party

The people of Minnesota showed the nation that neighbors standing together, helping one another, are stronger than Donald Trump and his masked thugs.

Thank you 💜
The Trump administration has announced their federal immigration surge in Minneapolis will be concluding.

I'm so proud to be a Minnesotan.

We showed the nation that neighbors standing together are stronger than Donald Trump and his masked agents.

Cruelty will not win. Now we continue the work. For Renee and Alex. For Liam Ramos. For people everywhere who deserve liberty and peace.

The Trump administration’s attempt to indict six Democratic members of Congress was an anti-American effort to weaponize the government against those who had the courage to speak out—and it was soundly rejected by a grand jury of Americans.

We are not scared of Trump’s regime.
Host: A grand jury declined to indict 6 Democratic lawmakers who posted a video urging service members to disobey illegal orders. The very fact that the Justice Department put this before a grand jury at all is notable.

Elizabeth Bennett-Parker’s win is another clear sign that voters are rejecting Trump and the GOP’s billionaire-first agenda and are instead choosing Democrats who will fight for working families.

This win guarantees a Democratic trifecta in Virginia—congratulations Elizabeth!
HUGE: Democrat Elizabeth Bennett-Parker wins the special election for Virginia Senate District 39, protecting the Commonwealth’s Democratic trifecta.

Congratulations, Senator-elect Bennett-Parker!

Analilia Mejia ran a powerful grassroots campaign laser focused on ensuring our economy works for families, not billionaires.

New Jersey deserves a fighter and not a spineless Trump lackey, and we’re all-in to make sure she wins.

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick lied about the extent of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. He’s not fit to serve the American people.

It’s time for him to resign.
Sen. Van Hollen to Lutnick: You misrepresented the extent of your relationship with Epstein. You had interactions with Epstein over 13 years, including long after he was convicted of soliciting the prostitution of a minor. That does call into question your credibility

This weekend, Representative-elect Chasity Verret Martinez clinched a statement win in Louisiana House District 60, where Trump won by 13 points in 2024. She won by 24 points, a 37% swing!

Voters are demanding leaders who put working families first—those leaders are Democrats.
Congratulations to Chasity Verret Martinez on her election to represent House District 60.

She was outspent 3-to-1 and still won. This is what happens when grassroots Democrats show up and organize.

Proud of this win and excited to keep building power together. #LaDemos

Since I was elected DNC Chair, we’ve followed a simple philosophy: organize everywhere to win anywhere.

We’re making investments, registering voters, and rebuilding trust. The road ahead is long, but the ground is shifting unmistakably.

This clip really shows how far the Republican Party has fallen by putting all their chips behind Donald Trump and MAGA extremism.

A decent man like John McCain wouldn’t recognize today’s GOP.

"He's a decent family man that I happen to have disagreements with. That's what this campaign is all about."

Three-time Trump voter: I'm looking at this awful picture of the Obamas. What an embarrassment to our country. He is not worthy of the presidency. He takes bribes blatantly, and now he's being a racist blatantly. He's pathetic as a president, and I want to apologize for supporting this rotten man.

Donald Trump’s $10 billion IRS lawsuit is nothing more than another scheme for him to pickpocket the American taxpayer.

This is corruption in the open.
Sen. Gallego: Trump is suing your agency for $10 billion. Where would that $10 billion come from?

Bessent: The general fund

Sen. Gallego: So, taxpayers.

Bessent: Yes

Job losses on par with the Great Recession. National debt is ballooning because of Trump’s Big Ugly Bill. More money going to billionaires’ pockets, less to yours.

This is Trump’s economy.
Host: Weekly jobless claims rising unexpectedly to 231,000. Challenger layoffs, a challenging number here, 108,000. That was the worst January since 2009.

Bannon and Trump have a couple things in common.

One, they throw around threats when they know they’re going to lose.

Two, they’re in the Epstein files.
