NH House Republicans file a bill, HB1703, requiring even 8 yr olds to register their bikes at $50 per year. NH doesn't even require registration for guns which, by the way, are the leading cause of childhood deaths. The GOP is out of control. #NHPolitics gc.nh.gov/bill_status/...

My power is my vote as a Senator, and I’m not voting to send an extra dollar in funding to ICE/DHS while they trample on Minnesotans like this.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

When federal agents grab people off the street without clear warrants, refuse identification, and disappear them into unmarked vehicles, the word “detention” stops fitting. That’s fear as policy — and it demands accountability, not spin.

The HB 155 corporate tax cuts will cost $26m a year. That’s $26m taken from funding our towns rely on, for things like education, housing, community services, forcing them to make up the difference by increasing your property taxes.

NH deserves better.

I’ve spent my career studying how regimes justify the unjustifiable. So when a civilian driver is labeled a “domestic terrorist,” I know what that language is doing — building a permission structure for violence. Minneapolis isn’t just a tragedy. It’s a warning. I break it down in my new essay.

77 years ago today, Eleanor Roosevelt led passage of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Last month, Trump deleted human rights from the U.S. National Security Strategy.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.
