Yes, Pete Hegseth is so incompetent that our troops go without necessary medical care, but at least they are called "warriors" now while they go untreated. So it all evens out . . .

My office seized cash, gold bars, multiple aircraft, luxury items, and more from Yuma doctor Irfan Fazil after he was caught defrauding our state's Medicaid program of $36.5 million. He'll spend 7.5 years in prison and will pay back every dollar he stole from taxpayers. www.azag.gov/press-releas...

Barack Obama is back in his role as Democrats’ closer-in-chief. He just cut ads for 24 Senate & gubernatorial campaigns—targeting races where he can help move persuadable voters. At 57% favorability, Obama is the most popular living president. Expect to see much more of him before Election Day. 💙

I called my 92 year old grandmother last night to tell her Trump's poll numbers had fallen even further because I knew she’d be delighted. She giggled and said, “Did you hear that Jim Baker fucker died today too?”

More than 500 U.S. citizens have been detained by ICE, according to ProPublica. 70% of ICE detainees have no criminal conviction. Trump’s promise to go after the “worst of the worst” was always a lie. It was always a pretext to terrorize Black and brown communities. Remember this.

For the first time, we’re partnering with labor unions to speed up and modernize hiring for city jobs. It should be easy, fast, and fair to find a good-paying job serving the city we call home — and after 100 years, we’re due for an update.

If they had believed Anita Hill, wouldn't have Justice Thomas. If they had believed Christine Ford, we wouldn't have Justice Kavanaugh. If they'd believed Epstein victims, we wouldn't have Trump. If Sandra MacDonald had been believed think how many Jane Does there wouldn’t have been.
