(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Kenyatta: Trump in just six weeks has made life more expensive, has made America sicker, has made us weaker. And he got up on that stage and just lied to the American people. The only American energy that was unleashed was the full gaslighting that we saw in front of our face.

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy. All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

WARNING: There’s a fake Facebook account that pretends to be mine and that copies lots of my BlueSky posts but isn’t me at all. It intersperses some deep fakes that look and sound just like me but that suggest actions involving something called “QFS,” which I know nothing at all about.

Trump has no idea what Musk and DOGE are cutting. Republicans in Congress certainly have no clue. Musk’s "transparency” is full of lies: 5 of the top 7 line items were proven to be false. These cuts hurt ALL Americans — Democrats and Republicans alike.

We fight on all fronts. Republicans are trying to pass another resolution blaming the country’s problems on gay and transgender kids and drag shows. To distract from measles outbreaks, rising costs, and the stock market crash. I’m on the Senate floor now to stop it.

The Army deleted my “Why I served” video where I talked about how I decided I wanted to attend West Point/join the Army after one of the cadets my family used to sponsor died in combat. Probably deleted because she was the first black woman to be CSM at West Point.

We’re receiving word that General Services Administration leadership are firing more people tonight. Our dedicated colleagues should be eating dinner with their families or putting their kids to bed, not having their lives upended. The public will suffer, too. We stand with all of you.
