We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.

This is why I will never give up. This great country is in the middle of it.

Commentary: President Donald Trump is plainly using his office to further his private business empire.

As Donald Trump leads America down the path to becoming a failed state, we have lost 24/7 weather services in parts of the country. Along with massive deterioration in Social Security services caused by Musk, American decline at the hands of billionaires couldn't be more stark.

I’d say that Kennedy Jr.—whose deranged conspiracy theories are now likely to cost America a new COVID-19 booster this fall—won’t be happy until his narcissism costs tens of thousands their lives, but the truth is he won’t be happy then, either. He’s a miserable man engaged in miserable misconduct.

Whole Foods' attempt to overturn workers' unionization vote at a store in Philadelphia has been rejected by the NLRB. The board overruled Whole Foods' claims of misconduct in the election and said the union should be certified, Bloomberg reports.

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’ One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

"I think we are in a moment where Jesus is a victim of identity theft. I don't know what Bible folks are reading—attacking the poor in the name of the faith," says Sen. Rev. Raphael Warnock.

WATCH: Sen. Van Hollen says he’s headed to El Salvador tomorrow morning to seek the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia—and to hopefully visit him in prison. "I promised his wife and his family that I would do everything I could 24/7 to try to bring him home. And that's why I am going to El Salvador."

“If you're not speaking up for this man, there will be no one left to speak up for you,” says Gov. Tim Walz on Kilmar Abrego Garcia. “I'm convinced now [Trump is] not going to listen to the courts.”

Didn’t get a chance to post this earlier, but there was a huge turnout in support of Kilmar Abrego Garcia at the federal courthouse. From my seat in the jury room, I heard the supporters outside chanting throughout the hearing.

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
