Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Republicans scheduled our Rules Committee hearing for their reckless reconciliation bill for 1am. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. They know their Medicaid cuts are indefensible, so they’ll try to pass them in the dead of night. Whether it’s 1am or 1pm — I’ll be there to defend my constituents’ healthcare.

Republicans have scheduled their budget (that slashes $1 Trillion in Medicaid for a tax cut for the rich that explodes the debt etc) — for a 1AM vote. How many things have you done at 1AM that you were proud of? Says it all, really.

Just a reminder that the guys that flew the airplanes into our Twin Towers are now showering gifts on the U.S. President. Call me a cynic, but I don't think the gifts are due to their newfound love for democracy.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

Maybe democratic leaders need to make it clear now: if you’re a nation that engaged in absolute corruption with the Trump family, you will absolutely pay a price when he is out of office. Our people deserve better

Alcatraz brings in between $20 million and $34 million a year in tourism revenue for the National Park Service alone. The cost to renovate Alcatraz could be as high as $350 million to house 300 prisoners. In 1959, it cost over 3x more to house inmates there vs. another prison... 🧵

Andrea Jenkyns pledges that Reform will "reset Britain to its glorious past." Hitler said he would make Germany great again. Mussolini promised to restore the glory of the Roman empire. Never trust politicians who promise to make your country great again.

NEW: Crowd now growing at the Capitol where Cory Booker and Hakeem Jeffries are staging a sit-in on the steps. Is this building into something? If you’re in DC, they’re encouraging folk to come down there & support. #Resist (📸 Sen. Brian Schatz)

This was one of Virginia's last tweets on Twitter. She said "Pam Bondi's files were not enough". And now she's dead, just like Epstein.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump demanded action—and now the IRS is moving to strip Harvard’s tax-exempt status. This isn’t about taxes. It’s about power. Punishing a university for refusing to bend on diversity and free speech is authoritarianism, plain and simple. If they can do this, who’s next?

Just ended a call w/ 2 former Harvard in-house counsel colleagues, MIT counsel, 2 NIH scientists, and 2 law firm lawyers who do higher ed (like I did). Plainly, things are bad. If this many brilliant minds are anxious w/ no clue what to expect, things are bad; will relay instructions as they come.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
