Americans’ approval of the Supreme Court just hit a record low — 61% disapprove in the latest Gallup poll. We need bold reform, including term limits, to restore faith in our nation's highest court. news.gallup.com/poll/713096/...

There are real costs of having a president focused on sore-loser election lies, corruption, and endless wars. Imagine if we a had president who woke up today and did everything in their power to lower prices — and partner with Canada to stop the plumes of smoke over our nation.

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah. Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence. Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

BREAKING: Republicans in the Texas House just bowed down to Trump and passed a bill creating five new likely GOP seats ahead of the 2026 midterms. Shame on them. They are to blame for the gerrymandering arms race that we will now see across the country.

Gov Morrisey’s plan to send the WV Guard to DC disrespects those who serve by using them as political pawns and hurts communities recovering from flooding who need their help. If he gives a damn about flood victims or the Guard, he should immediately call them back. www.reuters.com/world/us/wes...

West Virginia governor to deploy National Guard troops to US capital

Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake. Now, he’s activating the DC Guard to distract from his incompetent mishandling of tariffs, health care, education and immigration — just to name a few blunders.

Republicans in Congress have the power to end Trump's tariff chaos today. Instead, they're ceding their own power and letting him raise prices on every American, shrink retirement accounts, and likely push us into a recession that will cost American jobs.

Sean Eldridge @seaneldridge.bsky.social · 07/04/2025
Prices will rise for all Americans. Retirement funds will shrink. And most businesses will hit pause on new projects and layoff workers. All because of an incompetent and corrupt leader who has no plan — and a Republican Congress that has the power to stop him, but chooses not to.

Congress has the power to cancel these senseless tariffs, and they're refusing to use it. GOP lawmakers are letting Trump raise prices, tank the markets, and potentially sink our economy into a self-inflicted recession. Let's make sure every voter knows.
