Trump keeps saying #Portland is burning to the ground', 'the place is burning down'. Even the #FOXNews weather cams can't back up his nonsense. www.kptv.com/weather/cams/
No Warzone here Mr. President.

Release the jobs report. And while you’re at it, release the Epstein files.

A federal government shutdown doesn’t help anyone.
Republicans, do your damn job!

Oregon gov says Trump troop deployment could cost taxpayers up to $10M That’s a significant increase over estimates released by the Oregon Military Department Tuesday.

Taxpayers are on the hook for $10 million to feed Trump’s delusion that Portland is 'war ravaged.'

Ten. Million. Dollars.

All for National Guard troops to discover that Portland has incredible bakeries, world-class farmers markets, and a community that takes care of each other?

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.

I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.

Federal agent: β€œWe are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

We held our first public eventβ€”The People’s Power Hourβ€”where we came together to talk redistricting and rebuilding the Democratic Party. Full of energy, ideas, and community.

Shoutout to my wife Saba for the birthday cake and our team for making it happen.

More to come. Let’s climb.

A Solution to Abuse of Executive Power Both parties have misused presidential power. Congress must act to end it.

In the wake of the president’s abuses of power, it won’t be enough for politicians to merely orate about restoring the rule of law. The only way to overcome that skepticism is with action.

Just joined @tinakotek.bsky.social, Mayor Keith Wilson, @repbonamici.bsky.social, and my state, local, and federal colleagues to speak out against Trump sending federal troops to Oregon. We don't need them, and we don't want them. Hear more:

The war on marijuana has punished Black and brown Hoosiers for decades.

Legalize it. Expunge old convictions. Reinvest in the communities most harmed.

The Trump Admin has instructed ICE to racially profile, intimidate, & detain our Latino & immigrant communities.

As a result, young children are missing school, parents are missing work, & families are living in fear due to the threat of deportation or, worse, separation from their loved ones.(1/2)

I could not, in good conscience, vote for a dirty, partisan spending bill that strips away health care affordability.

I voted NO.

I was in #OR02 and visited with health care workers and providers at Adventist Health Columbia Gorge, where we discussed the effects that H.R. 1 will have on their services and care they provide for rural Oregonians.

Watch my video to hear my promise to protect health care.

What a magical night!!! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate our 30th anniversary.

But the party isn’t over, you can still support Greater Chicago Food Depository! So far we’ve raised $2,042. That's 6,126 meals for our neighbors! myfooddrives.org/fundraiser/6...

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents.

It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually.

This is a huge step forward β€” and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

Oregon fights back after losing $86M in solar funding The state has filed an administrative challenge to claw back the Solar for All grant award terminated by the Trump administration.

BAD NEWS: The Trump Admin is TAKING back $86.6 million in solar funds that would have delivered reliable and affordable energy for low-income families.

GOOD NEWS: In Oregon, we are not backing down.

We’re dedicated to a more sustainable and affordable path for our children and grandchildren.

If you get your health care through the Affordable Care Act, watch my message to you about how your premiums may go up the next time you re-enroll.

Make sure to share this video with at least one neighbor who needs to know this information. (1/2)
