Two presidents at the U.N., 10 years apart. The difference couldn't be clearer.
A panel graphic comparing President Obama's and Trump's speeches at the United Nations General Assembly.

First panel (Obama, 2015): "We can choose cooperation over conflict. That is not weakness—that is strength."

Second panel (Trump, 2025): "Your countries are going to hell."

Black text on a white that says the following:

The allegations in the Cornell sexual assault case are deeply disturbing and gut-wrenching. Cornell University has failed this survivor.

I fully support Governor Hochul's decision to name Attorney General James as special prosecutor in this case and look forward to the complete and extensive investigation that is to come. 

Accountability and justice cannot simply be values, they must also be delivered.

Trump said "I don't rule anything out" when asked about potentially invoking the Insurrection Act to place troops at polling locations (federal law makes it a crime to put armed troops at the polls). He's going to lose the midterms, he's a desperate man, and all he's got to offer is "we'll see."

Trump could nominate the worst person with a law degree in America and this Republican senate will confirm that person. That includes Susan Collins, who always confirms Trump’s justices. The only chance you have to keep that person off the court is to elect Democratic senators.
