The president has no role in elections. Six disgraceful partisan hacks on the Supreme Court have just given him a lawless green light to manipulate votes by mail for voter suppression. The Roberts Court majority fits more in Putin’s Russia

As Trump moves to gut Head Start—a program thousands of Arizona's working families rely on—I met with parents and providers to hear what's happening on the ground. Head Start has given kids a fair shot since 1965. I’m fighting to make sure it’s still here for the next generation.

A nuclear deal for the Saudis. A media blackout for Kushner’s corruption.
On Wednesday, the Trump administration signed a 30-year nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia that paves the way for the kingdom to enrich its own uranium.

Trump just invoked a 1950 wartime law to spend $700 million propping up the coal industry, much of it to power AI data centers. A petition asks Congress to block it—coal is the most expensive, most polluting power there is, so this won’t lower energy bills, it’ll raise them. Back wind and solar.
