Governor Moore and AstraZeneca Announce $2 Billion Investment to Expand Manufacturing in Maryland, Supporting 2,600 Jobs

We've announced the largest private capital investment in Maryland in the last 10 years.

This partnership will bring hundreds of new jobs to our state, strengthen our countryโ€™s medicine supply chain, and accelerate the development of life-saving therapies.

This is lunacy. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is, at best, an environmental lawyer. He has no experience or degree in medicine or science.

This is tantamount to me, an English major, giving NASA a Post-It outlining how they should revise their entire approach to the astrophysics of dark energy.

US federal employees were stripped of their collective bargaining rights under a Trump executive order, but now may get them back. Dems got enough signatures on a discharge petition to force a vote in the House. Great job Dems! Sidestepped Johnson! thehill.com/homenews/hou... @demsabroad.bsky.social

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items โ€œpotentially divisive.โ€

Only a few generations ago our armed forces fought against these hate symbols and the dangerous ideologies they represented.

Bigotry is not โ€˜potentially divisiveโ€™ โ€” itโ€™s a blight on the past and present and an antagonist to the success of our armed forces.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit โ€” all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.

Trump doesnโ€™t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

Donald Trump's idiotic proposal to sell off California's coasts to his Big Oil donors is dead in the water.

We will not stand by as our coastal economy and communities are put in danger.

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we pause to honor the transgender people lost to anti-trans violence this past year.

This is not just a statistic; each number is a human being, loved and missed. We remember them. ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ

It is abhorrent that the President just threatened death upon members of Congress.

We must condemn all threats of political violence, especially when they come from someone who has incited a violent attack on the Capitol.

Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."

Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

Kamala Harris was recently in Toronto, talking about her 2024 presidential campaign. She was asked what advice sheโ€™d give to the Democratic Party for the next elections.
โ€œThey are cheating!โ€
โ€œFight fire with fire!โ€

Federal court clears new Texas congressional map for 2026 // Federal court blocks new Texas congressional map for 2026 The decision is a major blow for Republicans, in Texas and nationally, who pushed through this unusual mid-decade redistricting at the behest of President Donald Trump.

BREAKING: A Federal Court has BLOCKED Texas republicans from using their new maps in the 2026 midterms. The ruling must be appealed directly to the Supreme Court. Unsure why the Trib has two conflicting headlines. www.texastribune.org/2025/11/18/t...

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just โ€œdeemed as passedโ€ the Epstein resolution.

That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the Presidentโ€™s desk.

Wow.

This will no doubt be challenged all the way to SCOTUS, but as of right now, Texas canโ€™t give Trump the 5 extra House seats he requested.
