Kushner: If Iran is willing to finish the deal that they've been discussing with us to give up their ability to create nuclear weapons then obviously he is willing to make a deal but right now they are not showing any interest in doing something that makes sense for us.

France calls out the U.S. at a UN meeting: “The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore. Today, it stands alongside North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali and Russia. Isolated. And the world no longer listens to it.” U.S. representatives stormed out of the meeting. Well said France! 👏🏼🇫🇷👏🏼

Blanche only met with them because Tom Tillis made this a condition of getting his yes vote. What a sellout. Tillis talks tough, but it’s just like one of the other confirmations, Hegseth I think, where he made one weak demand and then gave up his yes.

Trump will lie about the 2020 election. Trump will lie about the 2026 election. But, if Trump claims powers he does not have, or tries to undermine free and fair election, we will sue and we will win. If you doubt me, take a look at my record in beating him and his allies in court.

Ding, ding, ding. I would pay good money for any reporter to ask him that and watch him sputter. Another easy question would be: “So you’re saying YOUR administration failed in 2020 to stop election fraud because YOU were in power then.” Or: “If Democrats are so good at rigging elections, why 1/2

The US is hosting the World Cup and just turned away Africa’s top referee at the airport 3 days before kickoff because of where he was born. Omar Artan had a valid visa. He had a historic assignment. They didn’t care. Disgraceful. #USDemocracy #Pinks newrepublic.com/post/211508/...

Top African Referee Barred From Entering the U.S. For World Cup

Omar Artan was set to become the first Somalian to officiate a World Cup match. He was denied entry to the United States on Monday at Miami International Airport.

Ken Paxton was indicted for scamming his own friends. He convinced them to invest hundreds of thousands in a company while secretly pocketing a commission. Paxton sold out his own friends for a quick buck. What makes you think he won't sell you out in the Senate?

Do people really think that Latinos are going to vote for a white billionaire over a Latino man with a long history of government service? Latinos are fleeing the Republican Party right now. Most Steyer voters seem to be white progressives (like Bernie’s who never captured black voters’ confidence).

Members of the military that have been sent to fight this war with Iran, can’t just decide to go home to avoid tough things. Mike Johnson and John Thune sent Congress home early for the holiday at a time of war to avoid a vote that Trump will tantrum about. Disrespectful and disgraceful.

For more than a decade, Stephen Colbert has been one of the top voices of late night—making us laugh and, even more importantly, reminding us who we are and what America stands for. Michelle and I enjoyed being Stephen’s guests—even when the games were rigged—and we’re grateful to call him a friend.

Everyone knows "1776" was *the* battle cry of the January 6 insurrectionists, right? I wrote a book on the armed rebellion Trump incited, and if you missed that his Terrorist Slush Fund is $1.776B *explicitly* to signal its aim of making MAGA terrorists rich, that's... a big miss.

Ofc you’re “allowed” to mock a woman who is running for office to try to contribute to the city. What is says about your need to do so is open to interpretation. In my view, especially since Trump came on the scene, too much mockery, misogyny and rudeness. Why put people down?
