The House is CLOSED for business. Votes are cancelled. Republicans have left town. Chamber doors are locked.

But I’m still here, ready to work, ready to fight, and calling on the Speaker and GOP to BRING BACK THE HOUSE!

Finally some peace and quiet.

The Netherlands has become the first country in the world to successfully eliminate stray dogs, ensuring that every dog has a home.

This remarkable achievement stems from a combination of strict animal welfare laws, large-scale spaying and neutering programs, and a strong culture of responsible pet ownership. The Dutch government has long supported widespread sterilization initiatives and enforces tough penalties for animal abuse and abandonment.

While an estimated 200 million stray dogs exist worldwide, the Netherlands stands out as a global leader. In Dutch cities, it is common to see dogs riding in bicycle baskets, relaxing under café tables, and even joining their owners on public transport, a reflection of how deeply integrated pets are into everyday life.

The country now serves as an inspiring model for animal welfare, demonstrating how coordinated policy, cultural awareness, and compassion can effectively solve a challenge that continues to affect many other nations.

My father died of a heart attack at only 39 years old.

I’ve always kept an eye on my health because of that history. Now, I’m walking every day and taking a GLP-1 so I can be around for my family.

My health journey isn’t over, but sharing this might help others.

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

An elementary education major breaks down in tears while describing her fear that she may never be able to afford a home: What are some steps you will take to help me and others achieve that?

The stakes in this race are high – Wisconsin can’t afford to elect a governor who’s in Donald Trump’s pocket.

At 6 years old, Alex wrote to President Obama offering to welcome a young Syrian boy into his family.

His letter reached the United Nations, the White House — and, 10 years later, the Obama Presidential Center.

A small act of kindness can travel farther than we imagine.

Trump’s racist and lying tirade against Angie Nixon tells you one thing. They're EXTREMELY worried she’s going to win.

And they should be scared because, with your help, she WILL win.

I look forward to campaigning with Angie and our friends in Florida in the very near future.

"That's a little weird," Danes and Greenlanders shared their view of President Trump's announcement of a deal struck on Friday to bolster U.S. military presence in a NATO ally's semiautonomous territory.

Trump said the new security deal would give the U.S. "permanent control over security, and all other needs, in Greenland, completely addressing ALL of our many U.S. concerns."

Denmark and the U.S. already have a long-standing security agreement that has allowed the U.S. to deploy forces in Greenland, and it was not immediately clear how this deal was different.

[Gina Hinojosa @GinaHinojosaTX]

Under Greg Abbott, our property taxes have gone up 85% while he took millions in donations from billionaires and corporations.

If he wanted to lower taxes, he had plenty of chances to do so in the last 12 years he's been governor.
