$429,000. $367,000. $501,933. We should not have a system in which Americans cannot decipher whether these numbers represent the price of a home or a student loan balance.

An incessant whine. 24 hours a day. 7 days a week. 365 days a year. For this Virginia neighborhood, it never stops. This is how bad decisions by politicians hurt people. Day One, I’ll implement a data center moratorium and tell greedy developers that Florida’s not for sale.

🚨BREAKING: In a win for Vermont voters, a Biden-appointed federal judge dismissed the DOJ's lawsuit seeking access to the state's unredacted voter registration list. The department is now 0-24 in its sweeping legal hunt for states' private voter data.

AI data centers' gas turbines and backup diesel generators are polluting the air in our communities. But instead of protecting us, the Trump administration is using the AI boom as justification to gut pollution controls and the Clean Air Act. Tell the EPA to protect our air ⬇️

AI data centers are trying to avoid accountability
Tell the EPA you oppose its proposed rule that would allow AI data centers’ backup generators to avoid clean air rules and keep communities in the dark.

We are projected to spend $268 BILLION on deportations — costing the average American taxpayer about $2,358 (according to @epi.org). But somehow we “can’t afford” to make sure hungry children can eat or ensure everyone, no matter their income, can access healthcare. Priorities.

Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳

Todd Blanche told me privately that he “made a mistake” creating the MAGA slush fund. I asked him about it under oath. And he lied to Congress. His willingness to casually lie under oath shows how far he will go to avoid offending his only boss: Donald Trump.
