Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

On this day John Lewis was born. If you don't know why he's a civil rights icon, please read about him. In his honor, always get in good trouble. It's time. Just because the administration declares something illegal doesn't mean it's wrong. www.si.edu/spotlight/jo...

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

I’m forcing the Senate to vote on an amendment to reverse Trump’s layoffs of thousands of critical wildland firefighters. My colleagues claim to support our first responders. Time for them to prove it.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

NEW: Minnesota was just ranked a top state both to retire and to raise a family. By investing in the things that matter – economic opportunity, health and safety, and strong communities – we’re building the best state for all Minnesotans from childhood through retirement.

I cannot emphasize enough that the New York City subway is not scary. It’s one of my favorite parts of living here. I grew up in the suburbs having to drive on highways everywhere and that’s way scarier

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

So how do you stop a coup in the US? What does that even look like? If you remove the president, does the corrupt vp step up? And after he's removed, the corrupt speaker? Is the only way to change things violent?

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc

Hey my fellow Americans... if you're not sure what to write to your reps about, see if they're on Bluesky. If they are but inactive...write to them to ask for them to have a social media person. If they're not here, tell them to get on here.
