Small businesses are what the American spirit is all about. I especially treasure independent bookstores. That’s why I’ve partnered with a few stores to share signed copies of my new book, PROMISE ME, AMERICA. It’s out on Tuesday, and you can order your copy now at https://t.co/ONtDpyQaeR.

Lakshya Jain, machine learning engineer and political data analyst, refuted the idea of needing a straight white male as the Democratic nominee in 2028 at @MajorityDems 'What's Next' event today:

"After the '24 election, a lot of donors told me, 'I think we've got to nominate a white, straight male as the next Democratic nominee, because we can't afford what happened to Kamala Harris.'

And I said, if you're focused on that, you're definitely going to lose. Because there's not really any evidence anywhere, in all the analysis we've done, in any cycle, to suggest that minorities are less electable or that women are less electable. Actually, women did better than men in battlegrounds."

Thank you Senator @SenatorWicker. I look forward to working with you to improve our beloved state. Mississippi has bestowed on me the honor of a lifetime and I’ll spend every minute doing everything I can to be worthy of that trust. #MississippiMatters

"Several voters at the Columbus rally with Harris told CNN that this was the first time they were feeling like their votes mattered."

Today, we honor the veterans who have served our country.

It was one of the greatest honors of my life to serve as commander in chief, and our service members, including my son Beau, are always on my mind. Our country is a safer place because of them.

I’ve always said America is a place of possibilities. But those possibilities could not be realized without the sacrifice and dedication of our veterans and service members. Their choice of country over self is one we can never take for granted.

To our country’s veterans and their families, thank you for your service and sacrifice. May God protect our troops.

WOW! This is something you NEED to see!

Earlier today in Ireland, while Hunter Biden was receiving an award, a student began shouting about Gaza.

But instead of letting security remove the student, HUNTER STEPPED IN, stopped them, and delivered an absolutely WONDERFUL response.

No hostility. No running from a difficult question. Just compassion, dignity, and respect.

THAT is Joe Biden's son, through and through.

Like father, like son.

JUST LISTEN! 👇🇺🇸🇮🇪

For anyone who hasn't heard about this yet: ICE showed up at the front door of Dr. Ann Lawani in Lodi, California, while she was still in her pajamas, shackled her at the wrists, waist, and ankles, and shipped her all the way to a detention center in Louisiana.

She’s a frontline nurse who worked through the worst of COVID, directs the master's nursing program at the University of San Francisco (overseeing 230+ nursing students), and takes care of her 83-year-old dad.

When her family and lawyer tried to find out where she was taken, ICE’s online locator came back with "0 results." It turns out ICE quietly changed its policy the day before her arrest to stop listing thousands of detainees in the public database, so her family had no idea where she was for days while she was bounced from Stockton to Bakersfield to El Paso to Louisiana.

DHS put out a statement claiming she had a 2013 removal order, but they conveniently left out that on the *exact same day* in 2013, an immigration judge granted her Withholding of Removal blocking her deportation to Nigeria because she faced persecution there.

She has zero criminal record, has checked in with ICE for 13 years, and has a valid federal work permit through 2029. Because they legally can't send her to Nigeria, Rep. Josh Harder says ICE has been trying to quietly deport her to an undisclosed third country behind her lawyer's back.

Why did trump do nothing when told Jensen Huang was having an affair with a Chinese spy that wanted AI chips? Because trump cares more about his damn @WhiteHouse ballroom than he does about American national security.

Nvidia made at least a $25 million donation to the ballroom.

CBS is reporting that Susie Wiles's old lobbying firm has made $186 million under the Trump administration. Tell me again how food stamps that help a single mother feed her child while she works a full time job are the problem.

A vitória do senador democrata e advogado Scott Colom eleito pelo estado do Mississippi é a quebra das barreiras do racismo e da segregação racial.

É a quebra do preconceito, do racismo violento no Mississippi um estado de segregação racial violenta, de luta pelos direitos civis, de assassinatos de negros e considerado o estado mais perigoso para os negros americanos do Sul dos Estados Unidos. Uma questão de justiça e de resgate com um passado injusto e de covardia contra os negros.
