Election security is national security. And in its crusade against federal agencies, the Trump administration is gutting parts of the government that help protect against cyberattacks, combat foreign interference, and regulate campaign finance in federal elections.

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Trump is blaming Ukraine for starting the war. The White House claims Musk isn’t running DOGE—& Trump has no clue what it’s doing. Homan is after AOC and Trump works to bail out Mayor Adams. Uncovered with Ron Filipkowski and Anthony Davis is live.

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed. Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio. He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.
