We’re on the verge of a government shutdown because Republicans refuse to fix the health care emergency in America. I’m on my way to the Senate floor to sound the alarm.

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

Hakeem Jeffries has appointed Eric Swalwell, Jasmine Crockett, Jared Moskowitz and Jamie Raskin to serve as the democratic members on the new January 6th committee. What great choices in my opinion, all four of these members will fight to make sure the truth is not whitewashed.

We’re an unserious nation… Trump and Hegseth chatting: “This economy is tanking fast. I’ve got it—let’s rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War. Maybe that’ll distract them.” The name change is juvenile. The country’s being run by middle school bullies.

I don't know why I keep reaching in my mind for this analogy but American political culture feels to me right now like what Moses found when he returned from Mt Sinai and everyone had said "screw it" and started worshipping the golden calf.

Pay very close attention. On the campaign trail, Trump promised to release the Epstein files. Now that survivors are naming him as Epstein’s close friend, he’s calling it a “hoax.” Miss me with that bullshit.

The president is using the military to dismantle cities that didn't vote for him The president is using the military to distract from women speaking out against his and Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuses. We are not living in ordinary times. Extraordinary responses are called for.

Trump threatening members of Congress not to sign the Epstein files discharge petition saying it would be a “hostile act” against him is definitely something an innocent person would do. And scheduling a military flyover in the middle of the survivor press conference is also totally normal behavior.

You probably pay more in federal income taxes than some of America’s biggest, most profitable corporations. It’s not right — and we cannot afford to let it continue.
