I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah.
Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence.
Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.
BREAKING: Republicans in the Texas House just bowed down to Trump and passed a bill creating five new likely GOP seats ahead of the 2026 midterms.
Shame on them. They are to blame for the gerrymandering arms race that we will now see across the country.
Gov Morriseyβs plan to send the WV Guard to DC disrespects those who serve by using them as political pawns and hurts communities recovering from flooding who need their help.
If he gives a damn about flood victims or the Guard, he should immediately call them back.

Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake.
Now, heβs activating the DC Guard to distract from his incompetent mishandling of tariffs, health care, education and immigration β just to name a few blunders.

The SAVE Act is a trick, and the American people arenβt falling for it.

1/5 This morning I published an article in the
@nytimes on why Trump's threat to fire Jay Powell endangers the institutional architecture of American prosperity. The Fed needs insulation from the president to maintain price stability and full employment.

A constitutional crisis is looming. A president who ignores or intimidated judges who rule against him. A Congress passing legislation to dismantle judicial independence.
Checks and balances, and our fundamental rights, are at stake.

This is the energy we need from our leaders right now.
Bring him home.
It is remarkable how much damage Trump and his enablers have done in less than three months...to our economy, the rule of law, our standing in the world, and so much more.
Voters will remember β and history will remember β who continues to stand with him.
Every elected official should be demanding that the administration follow SCOTUS's order and return Garcia to the U.S. immediately.
The President is not a king, and court orders are not optional.
If they can bypass courts for him, then they can try to do the same to any of us.
Exclusive government communication on the struggling platform owned by Trump's biggest donor...They're not even trying to hide the corruption at this point.
