Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private server or Pete Hegseth using the nuclear codes as his password on Pornhub, both parties have ignored our nation's security.

I feel like the fact that Martha Stewart was sent to prison for far less than what Donald Trump and his band of clowns have done and are credibly accused of should be a bigger story.

Today marks the 60th Anniversary of Bloody Sunday. Organized by John Lewis, 600 people peacefully marched for the right to vote & to protest police brutality. They were violently beaten by law enforcement. Horrified by the savagery, the nation pushed to pass the Voting Rights Act.

Is now a bad time to remind everyone that we’re paying for Leon’s rockets that are crashing, burning and dropping debris, placing the public and danger? Last night‘s mess shut down four airports.

If you are spending any time attacking Democrats rather than focusing on what Republicans are doing to destroy our democracy then you are wasting value time.

The Oval Office ambush is wake up call #742 to Europe: America doesn’t have your back & you are out of time. Seize Russian assets in the EU, embargo Russian energy, allow Ukraine to hit targets on Russian territory with our missiles, & prepare new air defense & troop commitments.

President Trump is firing American workers who monitor bird flu outbreaks, safeguard nuclear facilities, and now those who promote American history in Dorchester – all to help pay for tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations.

If you are wondering why the country that helped America with its recent forest fires is being punished with more tariffs than China, which never helps America, Elon Musk owns an enormous car manufacturing plant in Shanghai. With Elon and Donald, it all comes down to their dollars, not your lives.

NEW: Switzerland's central bank, substantially owned by local Swiss governments, bought $1.78 million in Trump Media shares, according to documents obtained by CREW. Foreign governments can pad Donald Trump's bottom line and potentially influence him by buying shares, and they're doing it.

Who else thinks it’s very strange that Trump is levying 25% tariffs on our allies Canada and Mexico, but only a 10% tariff on our adversary China?

I hope folks understand what’s happening here. Some in the administration view concentration camps inside the US as maybe a bridge too far. So they’re starting with Guantanamo Bay, away from prying eyes and 24/7 coverage.

Look, Professor Schwarcz is literally one of my all-time favorite professors. But this is the game the far right plays! They make endless bad-faith arguments, insist you engage with them in good faith, and that's how ideas previously once unthinkable creep into the window of possibility.

Sick of people calling everything in crypto a Ponzi scheme. Some crypto projects are pump and dump schemes, while others are pyramid schemes. Others are just standard issue fraud. Others are just middlemen skimming off the top. Stop glossing over the diversity in the industry.

I wrote about how Congress has turned into a senior center. How many AOCs are never elected because 80-year-olds refuse to step down? How many young lawmakers don’t acquire leadership roles — and miss out on years of experience — because seniority is prized above anything else?

Pete Hegseth says he no longer believes what he wrote in his book that gays in the military have weakened military cohesion and effectiveness. When did Hegseth write that? Checks notes: 2024. Yes this year. Hegseth has ZERO credibility. Plus he's a rapist and anti-Muslim bigot!

As the oligarchy begins to take shape, this meme seems more prescient than ever. They have convinced you that immigrants are your enemy while they pick your pockets at the same time, you’ve been duped. It’s the billionaires who are ruining this country,not migrants. Always has been. #RiseAndResist
