Honored to be named Distinguished Democrat of the Year by @haverhilldemocrats.bsky.social

From Haverhill to Holyoke, families want fairness, opportunity & a gov’t that has their back. That’s what I’m fighting for every single day.

Thank you for all that you’re doing!

Finally, I had the chance to add a page to the @haverhilldemocrats.bsky.social website about Pride Day in Haverhill, MA: haverhilldems.org/pride-day-in...

I'd Lost A Few Things. 'No Kings Day' Helped Me Find Them Again Photo by Travis Long tlong@newsobserver.com

NO KINGS DAY was not a dour, dismal acknowledgement of certain defeat, as much as it was a joyfully defiant dance party of pissed off people who haven’t let a minority movement of misery make them in capable of jubilation.

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla.

This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

House Dems demand testimony from Noem after Padilla handcuffed in LA “If it can happen to Alex, it can happen to ... anybody,” Rep. Jimmy Gomez said.

House Dems are demanding that Noem testify before Congress after Sen. Padilla was detained by federal agents at her DHS press conference in LA.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference.

But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

RFK Jr. ousts entire CDC vaccine advisory committee Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has removed every member of a scientific committee that advises the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on how to use vaccines.

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process.

So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel.

Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

ActBlue fires back at GOP investigation, saying it appears unconstitutional and partisan In a new letter obtained by POLITICO, the Democratic fundraising platform says committees investigating it may be improperly collaborating with the Justice Department.

EXCLUSIVE: ActBlue is firing back at a House GOP investigation into its workings.

The Dem online fundraising platform says the probe appears to be an unconstitutional abuse of power to help the White House.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
