tRump is the worst president since the word was invented.

My kids know an American flag when they see one – but they don't yet know all that it represents. When they're old enough, here is what I'm going to tell them:

#NoKing

Newsom: This Saturday, he's ordering our American heroes, the United States military, and forcing them to put on a vulgar display to celebrate his birthday, just as other failed dictators have done in the past

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now. When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was on🔥 @kamlager-dove.house.gov

Rep. McIver was conducting oversight. That’s her duty as a Member of Congress. This isn’t justice—it’s retaliation. A political stunt meant to silence anyone who dares to hold power accountable. They may think they can scare us into silence. They’re dead wrong.

Newsom: I told the president, just get it over with. Arrest me. Move on. If you need someone’s head to scalp, then do it with me. But stop messing with these kids. Stop messing with four-year-olds. Kids in elementary school

The game show I'd pay to see is tRump, Hegseth, Noem, and Vance locked in a room with a single stick of eyeliner and a single pot of face glaze and see who emerges victorious.

I voted NO on their “big, beautiful” bill because it will strip health care from 14 million Americans—including nearly 130,000 people in my district who rely on Medicaid.

Just a reminder for any member of Congress who seems to have forgotten...

Buttigieg: I’m not even an elected official or running for anything— I’m here. I can’t help but notice a lot of people who are elected officials aren’t. There’s a reason for that. They don’t want to have to explain this stuff

Yes, I'm pissed about the jumbo jet too. But this is actually the most important story today.

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

Pass it on…

I'm thinking the chances are high that trump thinks "due process" is actually "DO" process and refers to the elaborate hair rituals he performs every day.

“We’ve got to remember how we got here—from Selma to Seneca Falls. We are here because of the power of the people. Change does not come from Washington. It comes to Washington.” Powerful words from Cory Booker at the Capitol sit-in right now. It’s up to all us, the people, to bring about change.

Proud of Sen. Van Hollen, who is a man of action and integrity. Maryland is lucky to have him fighting for us.

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

But the checks were so big! And the people who got them were so vetted!

It may be breaking, but @booker.senate.gov's voice has never been more powerful. Thank you, my friend, for speaking out for freedom, justice, and the country we love.

All respect, support, and gratitude to Cory Booker, who is a patriot and a leader.

Florida & Wisconsin, I hope you understand the assignment today! The entire Country, no World, is watching you. Please show up in record numbers and support candidates who will support the constitution & not the con!

Sending all positive energy to Susan Crawford in her race for Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Sen. Booker is an American hero.

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Sen. Cory Booker has been speaking on the Senate floor for more than 13 hours — taking aim at Trump, Musk, and America's 'moral moment'. Just after hitting the 12-hour mark, Booker said, "I am standing here because of a national crisis that is growing."

Listen to Bernie!!

This will make you smile because, lord knows, we need it right now.

Requiring Disabled to attend every meeting in person at Social Security is cruel and wanton punishment for being born imperfect or being injured into disability Most of these people cannot easily accomplish this

I care deeply about who Michigan will elect as Governor and send to the U.S. Senate next year, but I have decided against competing in either race. I wrote more here about my decision and how I view the work required of us all in this moment:

Go ahead and stay silent. Let fear rule you. Watch injustice happen. Just don’t act like you did not know and accept that you are the latest in a long line of cowards who learned nothing from the past. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

I believe you mean crypt president.
