I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP.

There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp' Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to โ€œdrain the swampโ€ of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Hereโ€™s why that will never happen.

1. You canโ€™t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didnโ€™t get vaxxed. Unethical.

The suggestion that Leon & his pubescent posse are showing up at Govโ€™t institutions & within hours identifying & responsibly cutting waste in specialties that he has no background or understanding is PREPOSTEROUS.

Heโ€™s not cutting waste- Heโ€™s destroying our institutions & stealing your info.

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

Dear World, (An Apology From Decent Americans) Dear World,

Dear Leaders of the Free World,

Fight him at every turn.
Make his life miserable.
Expose his ignorance and sociopathy.
Oppose and condemn and marginalize him.
The decent people of this nation are not with him.

We stand with you.

As of this moment, Canadians are united as one in defiance of tyranny.

Americans? Most Americans have no idea that the idiot monster they elected because they forgot to vote has started a massive trade war that will upend their lives.

Tariff On Canada Not Justified By U.S. Immigration And Drug Claims Evidence suggests that the justification for a 25 percent import tariff on Canadian goods and services does not hold up to scrutiny. Here is why.

Be clear about this. Only a tiny percentage of fentanyl comes from Canada.
โ€œ less than 1% of all fentanyl seizures occurred at the U.S.-Canada border.โ€œ

Trumpโ€™s tariffs are a tax increase for Minnesota families, plain and simple.

While Trump raises prices, Iโ€™m proposing the first sales tax rate cut in our stateโ€™s history to help Minnesotans weather the storm.

Soooooโ€ฆ

Donald Trump opened two dams in California which hold precious water resources that farmers depend on.

Nearly flooding communities?

And the water isnโ€™t even going to Los Angeles?

Where the fires are already out?

Bro is inept.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he has not spoken with the air traffic controllers who were in the tower at the time of the crash.

What exactly is he doing then?

FAA says a military helicopter collided with the American Airlines passenger jet from Wichita near DCA.

There must be immediate hearings on how the federal government/Department of Defense allowed this to happen and if removal of safety protocols and recent personnel changes led to this incident.

These Democrats Aren't Afraid Of Trump. Not One Bit. Onward.

We are 8 days into Trumpโ€™s chaos, but there are some absolute bright spots: outspoken, forceful, determined leaders, who will never cower to Donald. If we want to beat Trump and maga, these are the types of champions weโ€™ll need to rally behind.

Iโ€™m confused how awarding 4 years of back pay in a lump sum to 8,000 service members who were discharged for refusing to get vaccinated is good for the morale of the other 99% of troops who spent the last 4 years working their asses off on active duty for that same pay.

Dems should see the FOTUS IG memo as an opportunity.

If they can take a break from creating moments of comity they should be firing off letters to IGs saying they expect them to remain on the job & continue investigations, until FOTUS complies with the law.

There can be no compromises on this.

"If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you "

You get the point.

FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

Egg prices are soaring again. Hereโ€™s why and what to expect Bird flu has killed millions of hens in recent weeks, shrinking the supply of eggs and hiking up prices at grocery stores.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH**
