The Supreme Court decided Callais on April 29th.
Since then, Black political representation has been under direct assault across the South.
And I haven’t heard a mumbling word from @BernieSanders.
I checked both his X accounts — silent.
I checked his Instagram — nothing.
I checked his Senate website — crickets.
At this point I’m starting to get worried. Has anybody checked on Senator Sanders?
Because Black political power is under attack and somehow we can’t seem to run him down.
If y’all know somewhere else to check, let me know so we can get word to him.
The President’s words matter. Posts like these increase the risks to Members of Congress including Leader Jeffries. Threats against Members increased 58% between 2024 and 2025. For years, threats against me and my office were rare. In the last year since - Trump returned to the White House and his rants have become more unhinged - threats have become more common, and more explicitly racist, sexist, and violent. If Trump can’t control himself, the Cabinet should do its constitutional duty and remove him via the 25th Amendment.
It’s Teacher Appreciation week, let’s agree on something. Teachers deserve more than our gratitude. They deserve real investment in their pay, and their students. No matter where you stand politically, supporting teachers is supporting our children and grandchildren’s futures.
WE DID IT. Yesterday, we submitted our petition signatures to officially get on the ballot. This isn’t my campaign it’s ours. Thank you to every single person who signed, knocked doors, and believed in our vision for NJ-12. The real work starts now. 🗳️ #nj12#shanel4congress

🇺🇸 Grateful and fired up.
We’ve recovered millions in earned benefits, expanded veterans services, and built real partnerships with the Lyons VA right here in Somerset County. The Veterans Caucus sees that work, and they’re with us for NJ-12. 💪🏾 https://t.co/IwL4jcvZyA
