The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, renowned journalist Scott Pelley just highlighted how Donald Trump is working to stifle free speech in America, and how he plans on fighting back. This is huge.

What a line from Warren Buffett this morning:

“Be kind, and the world is better off. I'm not sure that the world will be better off if I'm richer."

Great turnout in Stamford, CT. We marched to Lind McMahon’s WWE steroid factory to say, ‘Hands Off Education!’

It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.

Just left our town hall in Stamford. 1000 people ready to take action against Trump’s thievery and corruption.

Heading to airport now to fly to Michigan for tomorrow’s town hall in a district where the GOP Rep is hiding from his voters.

LFG.

Important. Either Trump is so far gone mentally he doesn’t know what he’s doing, or people are acting in his name without his knowledge. This was an order with enormous implications, and the President of the United States says he didn’t do it.

There are more cases of measles than there are trans athletes in America.

Guess which one Republicans in charge are focusing on?

You know where you can go and not worry about breaking the economic blackout today?

Your local library! All those books and you won’t spend a penny!

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder

At the press conference outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Chris Van Hollen:

"Elon Musk may get to be dictator of Tesla...and he may try to play dictator here in Washington D.C., but he doesn't get to shut down the Agency for International Development."

BOOM!

We are not in a cult. THIS is the time to build the Democratic party back up by undoing what hasn't and won't work. And that only happens when we're honest about where we've gone wrong. To paraphrase James Baldwin, we can criticize our own party because we love its promise.
