BREAKING: In a powerful display of solidarity, thousands of Americans are marching in Selma to protest against the Supreme Court's rulings gutting the Voting Rights Act. This is amazing.

It was inspiring to watch the Artemis II launch yesterday — @NASA’s first crewed mission around the moon since 1972. Our space program has always captured an essential part of what it means to reach beyond what we thought was possible, and I hope the four brave astronauts on this mission will inspire a new generation to follow in their footsteps.

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future. As we mark 100 years of celebrating Black history, let’s honor the sacrifices of the leaders who came before us, and recommit ourselves to continuing their work.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

Change has never been easy. It takes persistence and determination, and requires all of us to speak out and stand up for what we believe in. As we honor Dr. King today, let’s draw strength from his example, and do our part to build on his legacy.

Threatening allies while refusing to lower health care premiums and turning Midwestern cities into battle zones... Americans don't want this and don't have to accept it.

We must use the tool that has been working in more and more situations over the past year: intense political pressure, especially on elected Republicans, to change their behavior.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

It's a bad deal.

Everyday life - making it better and more affordable - must always be our bottom line.

For months, I’ve been hearing from people bracing for their health insurance bills to skyrocket - so much that some will lose coverage altogether. Some say they simply haven't even opened their letter yet, dreading the bad news.

Any deal that fails to address this directly is a bad deal.

Powerful: Packers star QB Jordan Love and his foundation donate substantial funds to LGBTQ+ organizations.

They have also donated money to local LGBTQ youth groups.

Love’s foundation has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to different causes & charities.

A true role model on and off the field 👏

New Jersey and Virginia have chosen well by electing @MikieSherrill and @SpanbergerForVA as their next governors!

They are proven leaders who won by focusing on what matters most - how politics and policy can make everyday life better and more affordable.

The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, responds to Donald Trump calling him a horrible mayor:

“I think he’s got a crush on me, it’s either that or he believes in giving me squatter’s rights inside his head… He is racist, he is sexist, he is misogynistic, and he is Islamophobic."

BREAKING: Democratic Congressman Maxwell Frost drops a bombshell on Donald Trump and reveals that "about 20 Republicans" oppose the disastrous "big, beautiful bill" that MAGA is desperate to pass by Friday.

This could spell disaster for the White House...

"They can only lose three or four [votes], and it’s done," Frost told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. He explained that both so-called moderates conservatives as well as far-right Republicans have serious issues with the bill. The legislation simultaneously guts Medicaid and skyrockets the debt — meaning that it hurts average Americans while also violating the concerns of fiscal hawks.

Frost observed that despite their hesitation to vote for this bill, Republicans at both end of the conservative spectrum seem to "always fold." He hopes that in this case, they can be persuaded to stand strong.

"They put up a little fight, so that way they have some footage that they can put behind their ads during election time, and then they fold right away," he said. "Sometimes they stick to it, so we’ll see.”

"But the most important conversations, the most impactful ones, are actually [with] constituents and the people reaching out, and that’s why the big strategy right now is delay,” he continued.

Frost stressed to Psaki that Democrats must harness growing public outrage to kill the "horrible bill." The more that we fight against it, the more the public learns about it, and the more unpopular it becomes. The only thing that can ultimately convince Republicans to oppose this legislation is fear of their own constituents. At the end of the day, all they really care about is their political careers.

"Every minute we keep this bill from passing, it becomes even more unpopular, and every minute we keep it from passing, that means there’s more people going to the district offices, calling the offices in D.C., sending letters, protesting, reaching on social media,” he said.

"When that compiles, we get to the point where hopefully many of these members will stick to it and vote ‘no,’ and that’s our goal,” Frost added.

Please retweet and ❤️ to urge Congress to kill the bill!

VP Vance has cast the deciding vote in the Senate to cut Medicaid, take away food assistance, blow up the deficit, and add tax breaks for the wealthiest.

This bill is unpopular because it is wrong.

Congress votes this week, but it’s our voices - and our votes - that will have the final say.
