I had an excellent call with President von der Leyen about the road ahead for Canada-E.U. trade. Canada and Europe are strong, reliable partners. In a shifting global economy, that matters more than ever. We’re ready to secure new transatlantic business opportunities together.

Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake.

Can’t emphasize this enough: if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the debased assault on our country, the antidote is connecting with other people in the flesh who are feeling the same way. There are millions of us.

When one of the dogs who I shared a home with barks at the other dog in the home, I get it. I do not like it but I do get it. When people are cruel to others just because of who they are and what they believe when who they are and what they believe are not hurting anyone, I do not get or like it.

I know this is going to sound naive or earnest, but I genuinely find myself shocked by how little people seem to be upset by the levels of corruption we're seeing. Is that the median voter assumes everyone is corrupt already? Or isn't actually getting stories about the corruption?

1. Finally some fight. "Have you no decency!?" asked Rep. Keating after a Republican rep called Sarah McBride "Mr. McBride" repeatedly. McBride shot back, calling the chairman "Madam Chairman." Fireworks erupted, Dems protested, and the hearing was cancelled. Subscribe to support my journalism.

70%+ of flu fatalities are over 65, & nearly 1/3 of our 9th District neighbors are 65+. Am I surprised that the FDA cancelled a meeting with experts to choose next year's flu vaccine? No. Angry? Hell yes. GOP Senators who confirmed RFK Jr. based on vaccine assurances sure have a lot to answer for.

Being vegan isn’t about weakness—it’s about strength. Strength to reject the norm, face criticism, and stand firm in compassion. It takes resilience to fight for a kinder world while others mock. That’s real strength.

Last night, 99% of House Republicans voted to codify the Trump-Musk coup. Every Democrat except Rep. Golden stood united against this extreme MAGA spending bill. Senate Democrats still have the power to stop this sham of a government funding bill by holding the line. Contact your senators ASAP. 👇

If Linda McMahon and the Department of Education believe in "efficiency and accountability" (after laying off half of the department), then I'm sure they'll gladly publish a list of every position that has been eliminated and why that position is no longer needed.
