NEW: At least two people were killed and five others were injured today in the shooting at FSU in Tallahassee, Florida.
Our students are being SLAUGHTERED as so many of our leaders send their empty thoughts and prayers. When will enough be enough?
As I have always warned, tariffs are bad policy, and trade wars with our partners hurt working people most. Tariffs drive up the cost of goods and services. They are a tax on everyday working Americans. Preserving the long-term prosperity of American industry and workers requires working with our allies, not against them. With so much at stake globally, the last thing we need is to pick fights with the very friends with whom we should be working with to protect against China’s predatory and unfair trade practices. That includes what we do on trade.
Just left the Senate after voting a hard NO on the “one big, beautiful bill.”

We expected this from Trump. Your failures to do your jobs, provide oversight, and stop this debacle from happening was a choice and a testament to your weakness.
Republicans, you own the financial destruction happening in America.
Obama just said what everyone’s thinking but too many are afraid to admit: If he had done even a fraction of what Trump’s doing—blacklisting press, punishing dissent, targeting student protestors—the outrage would’ve been deafening.
But now? Silence. Because when the Constitution gets torched by someone in your tribe, suddenly principles are optional.
This isn’t about policy anymore—it’s about power unchecked and hypocrisy on full display.
To channel Fannie Lou Hamer…if I fall, I’m going to fall six feet, three inches, forward.
I’m not going to back down, I’m not going to give up on the cause of freedom.
