Mike Rogers is bought off — $5M from corporations to run his previous campaigns. He only cares about power and going back one more time through the revolving door to make another $14M.

Today, I'm releasing my Farmers Over Billionaires platform to champion Michigan farmers. Our broken politics has always favored corporations, monopolies, and billionaires over Michigan rural communities and family farms. That ends when I get to the United States Senate.

Looks like Trump's bold strategy of committing war crimes has once again failed to win over the Nobel Peace Prize committee. Tough crowd.

I note how Christian Nationalists, who think the public execution of Jesus was the most horrific thing humans ever did, are giddy at the prospect of getting to watch a public execution on live streaming—being so “pro-life” and all . . .

Targeting Microsoft or the PERM program in this way simply undermines legal immigration and weakens America’s ability to innovate.
Statement on Trump Suspending Microsoft from the PERM Program:

This is a crucial issue for me as the top Democrat on the Immigration Subcommittee, the only member of Congress to have actually had an H-1B visa, and the Representative for tens of thousands of Microsoft workers. The administration has been consistently working to take away legal pathways for immigrants to contribute their talents to our country, and this is yet another of those attacks.

The PERM program is the first step toward an employment-based green card for countless workers who want to contribute to this country, and it lays out a clear process with steps to ensure that this is a net benefit to our economy and does not harm American jobs. Our economy, our communities, and our families depend on immigrants in many sectors, including the tech sector, and heavy-handed attacks like this only hurt efforts to build a strong, stable, and diverse base of workers who have legal pathways to come and be in the United States while also protecting U.S. workers from unscrupulous employers.

You don’t fix a broken immigration system by taking a hammer to legal immigration. Microsoft has been a leader in advocating for comprehensive immigration reforms that modernize an antiquated immigration system and provide more — not fewer — legal pathways for immigrants from all over the world to work here and be with their families. Targeting Microsoft or the PERM program in this way simply undermines legal immigration and weakens America’s ability to innovate.

In case you needed further proof that Trump has no clear plan or exit strategy for the Iran War, here he is casually mentioning an attack on two American cities. Total insanity.
Three stacked images of Trump speaking with quotes overlayed. Text reads, "With the war, it’s just a little artificial. It’s [prices] a little bit high. It’s a small price to pay... Let them take out Los Angeles. Let the take out San Diego."

Tariffs may be Trump’s “favorite word,” but they certainly are NOT making working Americans any richer. Quite the opposite. We’ve got to get our country back on track.

3.5 million immigrants are projected to lose legal status by the end of 2028. That’s $79 billion in lost economic contributions and more than a million U.S. citizen kids who will be living with someone who has lost status. Republicans don’t give a damn about legal immigration.

ICE has notified me that another person has died in their custody. This is the 58th death under ICE’s watch since Trump returned to office. That’s 58 too many. We need to dismantle ICE, eliminate private, for-profit detention centers, and reform our broken immigration system.
