It will be at least 40 years before our loved and lovely America recovers from the wounds this selfish, stupid, and ego-driven man has inflicted. That it will recover seems certain to me, but it will leave scars.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

The Senate has finally voted to rein in Trump's war against Iran. The President cannot bypass Congress and start a war, especially one with no plan or timeline that only makes Americans less safe. Today we made that clear.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

Pete Hegseth wants an additional $80 billion in taxpayer money to pay for Operation Epic Failure in Iran.

Get lost.

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

In 1997, actor John C. McGinley’s son, Max, was born with Down syndrome. Shortly after, John's talent agent pulled him aside to deliver what was framed as practical advice: Do not talk about this publicly. Keep it quiet. People will stop hiring you.

For some, that might have sounded like reasonable career preservation. Protect the livelihood, avoid the spotlight, and pretend nothing had changed.

John’s response was immediate. He fired the agent.

Then, he did the exact opposite of what he had been told. He brought Max everywhere. Red carpets, talk shows, film sets, and public events. Wherever John went, Max was right beside him. At a time when society still largely preferred to keep individuals with developmental disabilities out of sight, John made a different choice. He made his son visible. Openly, proudly, and entirely without apology.

What began as a father's protective instinct grew into decades of fierce advocacy. John became one of the country's most recognizable voices for Down syndrome awareness. He spoke at global conferences, testified before Congress, and fought hard for employment law reforms that created real opportunities for people with disabilities to work, earn, and live independently.

During this journey, a reporter asked John a question that revealed far more about society's biases than it did about Max. The reporter asked if John ever wished his son were normal.

John didn't hesitate. He replied that Max was normal. The question wasn't. It was a blunt rejection of the idea that a person’s worth is measured by how well they fit into a narrow, conventional box.

Decades have passed since that conversation. Max is now 27 years old. He works, navigates his community, and lives an independent life filled with possibilities that the critics in 1997 never could have imagined for him.

Reflecting on their journey, John often says that Max never limited his life. He expanded it. Through his son, he learned what love, patience, and true commitment require.

The world signaled early on that it would have preferred Max to remain hidden in the shadows. John spent nearly three decades ensuring that the world looked Max right in the eye. Some fathers protect their children by shielding them from the world. Others protect them by refusing to let the world look away.

True inclusion begins when we stop treating differences as deficits. Max didn't need to change to fit into the world.

The world needed to change to make room for Max.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis.

Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention.

So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption.

1/ Here it is - in one🧵

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

I don’t say this often these days, but Congress actually passed something good.

My bipartisan housing bill to build more housing, lower costs, and stop private equity's housing grab is becoming law.

[H A S S A N @Neo_Manifesto]

My brother @iamslickrick01 is speaking facts here
Prince wasn’t even respected by mainstream media as a guitarist, he showed all of them and their favourites live on TV who he was and the whole world was blown away
We fans always knew and that performance was just another Tuesday

When not destroying our national treasures...

[Governor Tony Evers @GovEvers]

No kid should ever go hungry. President Trump and the Congressional Republicans who voted for this—including every Congressional Republican from Wisconsin—should be ashamed.

[Captain Mark Kelly @CaptMarkKelly]

The President just made thousands of stock trades — and then he turned around and made decisions that shifted those companies’ bottom lines. It's corrupt, and we need to end it.

If Congress doesn't act now, Social Security benefits could be cut by more than 20 percent after 2032.

@BernieMoreno and I have a bipartisan solution: lift the Social Security payroll tax cap.

We need to save Social Security for the next generation. Let's get this done.

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

How about starting with the man in the Oval Office who's been spending taxpayer dollars on:

- A Ballroom
- A Reflecting Pool
- A Wrestling Match
- Golf Trips

But I guess it's hard to go after the man who gave you your job.

Went to see Mariska in her Broadway Show, @brilliantbway ... Ive know Mariska for over 26 years now and everything she does is so amazing 👏 but watching her on stage was a sight to see!! I somehow made it in the show!
