Greetings from Washington-Dulles Airport! As a Member of Congress, former Meteorologist, and proud aviation geek, I still do not believe DCA Reagan Airport is safe enough. Until more protocols are put in place to reduce risk, I urge travelers to utilize IAD and BWI.

They were in the basement by themselves feverishly trying to tune in the channel to get a partial glimpse of a boob.

It’s not smart to piss off Mr. Panican. P.S. Words I never thought I’d string into a sentence, but here we are.

Saying this is like having a fifth grader teach the Econ class is too much of an insult to fifth graders. Spoiler alert: Tariffs are a tax. Inflation and a crashing GDP is not how we make America great again.

🇺🇸 Today is Vietnam Vets Day 🇺🇸 I am fighting to make sure this administration doesn’t go through with their plan to fire 80,000 workers from the VA health system, especially since it directly affects Vietnam vets suffering from toxic exposure and other long-term effects of the war.

Last I checked, screwing over our farmers and veterans is not a good way to make America great.

Somebody should whisper in Trump’s ear that we need to take Puerto Rico from the “Carribelonians” and make it our 51st state.

My folks’ neighbors in Florida are selling their home and are “never coming back.” They have Ontario license plates and “no longer feel welcome.” Who knows how much the U.S. economy is/was driven, just by us being welcoming?

Right now in America 🇺🇸 Imagine being violently interrogated at the airport for no reason. You’re stripped naked, forced in cold showers, not allowed to sleep, and denied medication. This happened here for no reason. The actions of this administration must be stopped. www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...

If you don’t know why I care so much about the education of our children, watch this clip from seven years ago. I won’t sit around while Elon Musk tries to destroy our education system. Every child, no matter where they live is entitled to a special level of learning.

The entire Central U.S. is under a weather advisory, watch, or warning. Imagine if we didn’t have the National Weather Service to do this important work for us.

My NO vote on the Musk CR in the House was to protect services and shield Illinoisans from dangerous cuts. This is not the time for appeasement. We must stand unified against Musk’s attacks and I am urging Senators to stand firm.

Congresswoman Sarah McBride is one of the most decent people I’ve ever met. I will always stand up for every LGBTQ+ person…whether they are in Congress or anywhere back home.

This is pretty good. And by good, I mean a devastatingly and accurate example of how this administration is not finding any waste, fraud, or abuse.

Hey! With earliest of the year 70s possible in local history, it’s a good time to look closely at your ceiling fans to make sure they’re working for your benefit. It’s also a good time to look at your government to make sure it’s working to your benefit.

I took a call from a family-owned lumber company in Western Illinois who said their next shipment of 2x4’s from Canada is labeled “Cost TBD.” “We have been in business since 1984 and if lumber prices go up, we will go out of business.”

While the President is focused on punishing Canada for some reason, he’s ignoring the real Americans who have grocery and gas prices going up, medicine prices going up, insurance prices going up, everything going up including unemployed workers. An incredible cost we pay with no reward in the end.
