Early childhood makes or breaks both individuals & society. If you want to know why we are where we are, and where things are going, this is the main timeline to support.

I am devastated and outraged by the horrific act of violence that occurred outside the Capital Jewish Museum. My deepest condolences go out to the families, friends, and colleagues of the victims.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

YouTube is the perfect place for “Katie Unleashed.” We’ll talk about the law, politics, and culture. You’ll hear from trusted, familiar voices. And you’ll hear from new voices with fresh takes. It’s time we realize WE are the cavalry we’ve been waiting for. Let’s rock and roll, folks.

Federal judge dresses down Alina Habba: "Your role is not to secure convictions at all costs, nor to satisfy public clamor, nor to advance political agendas. Your allegiance is to the impartial application of the law, to the pursuit of truth and to the upholding of due process for all."

It seems like the head of the Department of Homeland Security should know what habeas corpus is. Especially since it is a pillar of the Constitution, the WH Policy Director has said publicly that they may suspend it, and DHS will have to enforce that. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Is it too much to ask for an IRS Commissioner who understands the law?

The GOP's budget would make brutal cuts to food assistance and our colleagues won't shield veterans from their cruelty. Veterans are not waste. They're not fraud. And they're not abuse.

Sorbo goes viral with another fake story. Rinse, repeat..

I have endured his scurrilous attacks for years. He has sued me for racketeering — and lost. He has unleashed his right-wing army of online trolls. Since his reelection, he has threatened me, defamed me and singled me out by name in two executive orders. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-t...

Yes, we noticed. You're still here.

We know. They gave you immunity.

This day keeps getting better.

I may be the only lawyer targeted by Trump willing to speak on camera, but for me it wasn't a choice. All of us have an obligation to speak out against what Trump is doing. All of us have an obligation to fight for democracy. I am fortunate to be a lawyer and to have a platform -- and I will use it.

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

Let's go Canada!! Congratulations our Canadian friends!!!

The worst thing you can do right now is hide or go quiet. Stand up and talk back.

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Read more from the funeral: wapo.st/3YdDGqM

"The podcast by Ben Meiselas and his brothers regularly outdraws Joe Rogan’s. Their secret weapon? Reason. Imagine!" Read now 👇

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

Everyone needs to see the best moments from Bernie Sanders and AOC’s rally in front of 36,000 people today. Something big is happening in this country.

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

Eugenicists are so stupid.

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

I’ve attended Rise for Freedom trainings the last two Thursday evenings and I will attend the next four. Join us for one or all. Bring people who also cherish freedom. rise4freedom.org

The stupid... it b-u-r-n-s...!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

Veterans getting fired, social security is at risk, and Elon is telling you what you don’t need in govt, all while he just got a $6billion space x contract today! He makes money on you!

This asshole raised prices and ruined your retirement savings, and now he's out golfing for the rest of the weekend.

😂😂😂😂

Welcome to Idiocracy.

Welcome to "Liberation Day" when Donald Trump threatens, yet again, to drive the North American economy off the cliff. Here's my latest on Trump's attack on workers and family budgets. substack.com/home/post/p-...

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
