Instagram's own research found that one in five teens feel worse about themselves after using the app. They did nothing to help. I took them to court for profiting off the youth mental health crisis. Now, teens will be protected from exploitative features like unrealistic, harmful beauty filters.

About the moment in last night's debate when Sen. Markey didn't understand how we need to differentiate Claude and Siri: re-electing someone who doesn't understand the risks of AI makes no sense. Markey's answer was what my elderly parents would have said.

Well, I have to disagree with Fredi Walker on this one. Lynch imperiled the ACA for no goddamn reason when its passage teetered on a knife’s edge, and voted to let ICE disappear people first and ask questions later with the Laken Riley Act. This has everything to do with Lynch personally.

Ed Markey still hasn't returned the $62,000 he took from the DSCC. Democrats can’t afford to waste campaign resources. Taking DSCC funds to help hold on to your safe blue seat means less money to the fight to win our Senate Majority.

I don’t agree with all Abdul El-Sayed’s views, but GOP “othering” is a disgrace. He was born in US, educated at Bloomfield Hills Andover, where he captained football team; Univ of Mich; Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar; Columbia, where he earned an MD. Debate his views, not whether he’s a “real” American.
