Calling it fair to give transphobic views a voice is a trap. We've seen this before. framing exclusion as a reasonable concern was the same tactic used to justify racial segregation. You don't "both sides" someone's right to exist in public. That’s not a debate. it’s a double standard. End of story.

Today the Senate will vote whether to lower health insurance costs for Americans, or let them double for millions. I urge my Republican colleagues to join us and address this crisis.

Ghandi: “By its very nature, non-violence cannot ‘seize’ power, nor can that be its goal. But non-violence can do more; it can effectively control and guide power without capturing the machinery of government. That is its beauty.” Power to NO KINGS protests…

So much for lowering prices on Day One! Grocery bills are sky-high and Trump’s tariffs are only making it worse. Americans are hurting, 17 million people are about to lose their Medicaid and the GOP is handing out tax cuts to billionaires.

Jim Lovell wasn't just an astronaut or a commander; he was a hero. His courage and quick thinking inspired Americans to dream and explore all the way from our planet to the bright stars. Thinking of his loved ones today. May his memory be a blessing.

I AM NOT AN ACTIVIST. I AM A SCIENTIST. You don’t have to adjust your identity to meet the moment we find ourselves in—you simply need to engage in your civic duty as an expert in a given area by sharing your knowledge with the public and lawmakers. This is part of our duty as scientists.

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism. It’s disgusting and dangerous. If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign. Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness. To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.
