How grotesque. The Republican reconciliation bill cuts nutrition programs for hungry kids in order to give tax breaks to billionaires. Good luck to my Republican colleagues in explaining the morality of that to their constituents.

The Trump Admin just decided to send thousands of innocent people who have been living and working here legally into imminent danger in Haiti. Trump will tear apart families, rip up communities, and leave businesses and nursing homes short handed. And no one will be safer.

We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it?? Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

Happy Juneteenth! Today we celebrate the anniversary of Union troops' arrival in Galveston, Texas on June 19, 1865, with the news of the Emancipation Proclamation. Today we must continue the work of breaking down inequality and injustice in all of our systems.

Today we honor Juneteenth, a reminder that freedom was fought for, not given. We must honor the past by continuing to fight every day for justice, truth, and equality.

On June 19, 1865, the last slaves in Galveston, Texas rejoiced as they received word of their freedom. 160 years later, we recognize #Juneteenth as a celebration of their strength, resiliency and dreams, and recommit ourselves to working toward a more just and fair society.

Praying for all American troops who may be in harm’s way. Regardless of your politics I think we can all agree to the safety of our troops.

Does anyone think these unspeakably evil political assassinations of Democratic lawmakers would’ve occurred without the vicious permission structure erected by Trump, Vance, Rubio, and their MAGAts? www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

If we were a serious country, here is how we'd talk about Biden vs Trump: 1. Biden was too old, but he ran the most competent government in our lifetimes & it was full of highly qualified experts 2. Trump is too old & a criminal fascist & the government is failing & full of malevolent incompetents

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY. And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon. And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...
