Let me be VERY clear: if Americans can't access their Social Security Benefit, it isn't worth anything. First they went after phone services — now the website keeps crashing. This is NOT acceptable.

Social Security is the new Space X rocket

Took a walk this weekend and saw a lot of people pissed off at the Trump administration. I think a lot more are joining the club today as his tariffs tank the stock market and wreck the economy!

Is anyone familiar with the, "Mad King" (George lll) (Not Aerys ll from Game of Thrones) I studied World History a long time ago and recall that He was King when America was declaring independence... Pretty interesting politically...

Canada is not just Minnesota’s neighbor, it’s our number one trading partner. I led a bipartisan Senate resolution to stop these reckless tariffs that are harming our families, farmers, and businesses. www.startribune.com/klobuchar-he...

Pundits hate simplicity. If something is simple you don’t have to have pundit expertise to explain it. Trump Cabinet now has a public record as the stupidest Cabinet in history. This isn’t complicated. They are stupid rich people. Any analysis that doesn’t begin with their stupidity is stupid.

Boston was out in full force today ✊🏼

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media here—but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. —With love, Your American allies.

Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Trump golfed while the economic crisis he created wrecked our markets.

PROTEST IN BOSTON SO MASSIVE IT STRETCHES FROM BOSTON COMMON 2 CITY HALL PLAZA

Canada stands with Heard & McDonald Island Flippers Up (Not sure where this came from)

Yesterday, every single Republican & 30 Democrats supported Trump's $8.8 billion bomb shipment to help Netanyahu continue his annihilation of the Palestinian people. That isn't what the American people want. Below are my floor remarks to stop the sale. www.sanders.senate.gov/press-releas...

Cheryl Casone tries to find a silver lining: "We're now below 1,000 on selloff. The Dow is now down just 984 points."

JD Vance straight up lies on Fox & Friends, claims 40 percent of people calling the Social Security hotline are "actually committing fraud."

Musk fired the entire team responsible for managing the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), which supports approximately 6.2 million people across the U.S.—from Maine to Texas—in paying their heating and cooling bills.

Cory Booker was a light in the darkness! I watched, I listened, and even shed a tear because of the gift of hope he gave us.

I have been using my interview skills lately. No one has been able to answer 2 simple questions. "In what document is the Bill of Rights found." "How many amendments are in the US Constitution?" [Most people do know what # 1,2, and 5 in the Bill of Rights are though 😔]

Candidates charging for selfies at the polls! How embarrassed will citizens be of those photos in the future? Won't their grandchildren be proud... Grandma and Grandpa were ignorant.

Staff that administer programs to help the elderly, disabled people and poor families with basic needs lost their jobs amid the Trump administration's layoffs.

Booker finally yields after more than 25 hours of speaking 👏👏👏

BREAKING via WaPo: Mike Waltz and other members of Trump's National Security Council conducted government business over personal Gmail accounts, where they held conversations about highly sensitive information, including about military positions, powerful weapons systems, and more

The morning has arrived and he’s still speaking. Headed to the Senate floor to join Senator Booker in his marathon speech to stand up for people of this country. Thanks Cory!

Cory Booker is now in his *third hour* on the Senate floor—still speaking with heart, fire, and fierce conviction. He’s not just holding the floor—he’s holding the line for democracy. This is what moral courage looks like. Keep going, Senator. We see you. We stand with you.✊🏽💙 @booker.senate.gov

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Well, Donald, in just three months, you’ve turned your nation into a spectacle of disgrace. You think Canada is the nastiest country you’ve ever dealt with, yet you kiss up to Vladimir Putin, a war criminal...

If people could be, "bothered" to VOTE the outcome would have most likely been different! I know (knew) many people that didn't vote. I did. BTW, most people I "knew" no longer have contact with me. Even family. Oh well!

Never accused of being quiet, for the first time in my life I am stunned into silence...
