Proud of my friends at Sandy Hook Promise. Countless lives have been saved thanks to their Say Something tip line. This is what school safety can and should be. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Schools should be safe havens, not places of fear. Heightened immigration enforcement is putting vulnerable students at risk. Every child deserves to learn without the shadow of separation hanging over them.

I’ve known and worked with @joyannreid.bsky.social for over a decade and it’s been, well, a joy. She’s brilliant and fierce and irreplaceable. One of my favorite nights ever was getting to interview her for this live #WITHPod podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

From a guy who used to work there: Rachel is a remarkable person and the best TV news talent there is. If she says something is fucked up, it is. Getting rid of Joy, who dared to see through this fascism bullshit years ago and had the gall of occasionally being funny about it, is dumb.

Lucky 8 management is using one of the oldest tricks in the book, but their stalling won't discourage us. We'll continue to fight until workers at Lucky 8 have union recognition AND protections. We're just getting started, Lucky 8. #UnionStrong

MURKOWSKI comes out against Hegseth for DOD, first GOP opponent. "The leader of the Department of Defense must demonstrate and model the standards of behavior and character we expect of all servicemembers, and Mr. Hegseth’s nomination to the role poses significant concerns that I cannot overlook."

The Hegseth hearing is doing one thing incredibly well: it’s establishing that when his leadership at DoD fails, it’ll be clear that GOP Senators knew, excused it, and they own it. Serious concerns about experience & judgment are literally being laughed off.
