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.

Fox News must fire Brian Kilmeade – and completely and utterly denounce his genocidal beliefs. Now.

Remember how this united us as a country.

Today we are divided like never before.

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.

Only someone who avoided the draft would want to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

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.

Pritzker: Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: Once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next

Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. 

Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around.

Minnesota is heartbroken.

From the officers responding, to the clergy and teachers providing comfort, to the hospital staff saving lives, we will get through this together.

Hug your kids close.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
