Virginians are tired of the chaos. On Tuesday, we'll turn the page.

I don't resent poor people who use food stamps to buy another soft drink.

I resent rich people who take away the funds for food stamps to buy another yacht.

Obama: I believe in an America where we don't fear each other. But look out for each other. And if we want that story to continue. If we believe in that better story. We need leaders who believe in it too.

Kamala Harris ~ β€œWe refuse to kneel at the foot of a tyrant…We believe in the Constitution. We believe in the power of the vote. And we are prepared, when necessary, to fight fire with fire.”

β€œAnd part of what I’m here to say today is other states need to step up too.”

Obama: They never miss a chance to scapegoat minorities and D.E.I. For every problem under the sun. You got a flat tire? D.E.I.. Wife mad at you? D.E.I..

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

Tylenol SUE his decrepit ass!
In a humiliating reversal, RFK Jr. walks back his Tylenol autism claim - now saying data is only β€œsuggestive” and β€œnot sufficient to say it definitely causes autism.” #cdnpoli

The reason 42 million Americans are on SNAP is because employers aren’t paying living wages.

BREAKING: a federal court officially blocked Trump’s executive order demanding voters show proof of citizenship.

No president can violate the separation of powers to change our elections and disenfranchise eligible voters. Period.

As health care premium costs spike, millions of Americans will have to choose between affording groceries and being able to go to the doctor when they get sick.

No one should have to make this choice, and I’m working to find a path forward.

Popok: The blue states and cities effectively brought the cases. The red states are suffering, and their AGs are sitting on the sidelines. There’s no red state that brought a case. Think about that: not one red state attorney general brought a case to help prevent starvation and suffering. None.

Rep. Adam Smith: "This country has not agreed to have the death penalty for drug smuggling. If we want to have that policy conversation, we can have that policy conversation, but the president has unilaterally decided that lethal force is going to be applied. It's an enormous expansion of power."

Thousands of you shared heartbreaking and maddening stories with me about rising health care costs. But the fight is far from over.

If you're willing to record your story, we can make sure GOP lawmakers see and hear the direct impact of their policy failures: wintheera.myctbl.com/share-your-s...

When we were deployed, some Afghans risked their lives to help us. Now Trump wants to send them out to be killed by the Taliban.

It’s a disgrace, a betrayal, and a decision that endangers future US troops.

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Everywhere I go, Virginians tell me they’re worried about losing their jobs.

They’re worried because Trump has spent all year attacking our economy.

They’re tired of being cast aside by their leaders β€” and they’re ready for a Governor who will stand up for their jobs.

Dr Oz: β€œI think we all agree that Covid has passed”.

No we do not agree!

Anyone who thinks Covid has passed has no business in charge of public health.

It’s still here. It’s still killing and disabling.

Get your booster if you can. Wear a mask (ideally an N95) and clean the air!

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda:

"He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her."

"She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

The same people who think buying junk food with SNAP benefits is β€œabusing the system” are fine with wealthy parents using vouchers to send their kids to private schools.
