It's a lie. How disappointing from you, NPR.

Joni Ernst’s lifelong legacy for women serving in the military from her time in the Senate is Pete Hegseth.

Every woman denied promotion, denied a job specialty, sexually harassed, or forced out for bs reasons, owes it all to Ernst and the Republican Party.

Leader Jeffries responds to Trump: "The next time you have something to say about me, don't cop out through a racist and fake AI video. When I'm back in the Oval Office, say it to my face."

Senator Murphy, you and your colleagues ARE THE LEADERS of the opposition. You and your Democratic colleagues need to lead the way and outline steps to take. Schumer, Jeffries and the rest of you need to lead or get out of the way.

We're witnessing the culminating rot of shareholder capitalism in real time.

Some of the most powerful corporations in America have sided with an authoritarian regime in order to protect their short term profits β€” the fundamental rights of everyone else be damned.

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures.

Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims.

Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.

Trump's termination of federal grants for universities has jeopardized lifesaving research breakthroughs at Harvard Medical School β€” including treatments for cancer and developmental disorders.

His attacks on higher education will hurt us all.

Some call us shortsighted if we focus on retaking Congress in the midterms rather than on what comes next. No! That’s like calling shortsighted those on the Titanic who focused on avoiding the iceberg rather than on the rest of the voyage. There’s no β€œrest of the voyage” if we hit the damn iceberg!

I just went on Fox News to tell the truth about the redistricting power grab in Texas.

I asked a simple question: β€œIf Republican policies are so popular, why do they need to redraw these maps; why not run on their policies?”

He refused to answer β€” and cut the interview early.

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

Your kids get a max of two toys and then grow up to work in the same factory as their father and grandfather screwing in tiny screws. It’s called The American Dream.

ursula von der leyen tells zeit newspaper: β€œthe west as we knew it no longer exists.”

"europe is still a peace project. we don't have bros or oligarchs making the rules. we don't invade our neighbors, and we don't punish them."

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people.

We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Live: Speaking on Trump, Musk, and America’s Moral Moment on the Senate Floor | Senator Cory Booker YouTube video by Senator Cory Booker

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

It’s like Watergate, only in this version Nixon directly mails the tapes to Woodward and Bernstein

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives.

Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

Murphy: "The destruction of our democracy is part of this story ... this is super unpopular, what they are doing. Nobody wants their healthcare to disappear ... so how do you get away with it? You try to destroy our democracy. You try to crush dissent. You threaten members of Congress with arrest."
