Black voters, notably Black women voters, are the base of the Democratic Party. They rejected Bernie Sanders. He lost fair and square. Twice. White male grievance politics aren't just for Trumpers.

Hawaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

Our commonwealth joined together today to honor the life of a Kentucky hero, Kentucky State Police Trooper Hayden Phillips. We must keep his memory and legacy alive for those who loved him, especially his wife, Jordan, and their three sons, Kason, Konnor and Knox. Let us never forget.

'My husband emotionally abused and humiliated me and you should let his party treat you the same way' isn't the winning message Republicans seem to think it is. Especially during the week the Cornell rape case continues to be in the headlines.

Trump has: -Cut protections for national monuments to open them up for mining -Pushed to open up our national forests for construction and logging -Proposed building data centers on thousands of acres of federal lands Nothing is sacred to this regime. It acts solely on behalf of the oligarchy.

My investigators have confirmed the Trump administration is hiding interview documents it conducted with some of Epstein’s banks, and there could be more. There’s no limit to how far Scott Bessent, Kash Patel and Todd Blanche will go to continue this cover up.

Today's jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy. What's required is investment in working people — and better wages. When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs. Remember this.

Any Democrat running for President who wants to win the nomination and then the general election absolutely must commit to prosecuting Trump, Hegseth, Patel, and all corrupt members of Administration. They must be held accountable.

The midterms are being flooded with dark money & Trump is doing everything he can to suppress the vote. But remember — WE THE PEOPLE outnumber Trump and his billionaire backers. Keep phoning. Keep canvassing. Keep getting out the vote for candidates on the side of working people. It is essential.

Trump invited his billionaire pals to the state dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping last night. Since he’s been back in office, the wealthiest households have gained 8,000 times more wealth per household than the bottom 50% of households. It’s clear who he governs for.
