One factor in the recent homicide decline was the Biden admin's clampdown on gun trafficking. Now, the Trump admin's pulling back on several fronts, raising odds that the flow of illegal guns will rise, w/ ill effects down the line. My latest @propublica: https://t.co/7Ys5khFOWV
Generation after generation, men and women put on the uniform knowing the risk — and went anyway knowing they might not come home. Knowing their families would carry that for the rest of their lives.
To the families still carrying that weight — I see you. The pain doesn’t go away, but neither does the pride.
Freedom has never been guaranteed. It has to be earned, defended, and sometimes paid for in the hardest way imaginable. Today on Memorial Day, we stop, we slow down, and we remember those who did.
We honor them.
We thank them.
And we work hard to live up to what they died for. Keep the democracy they believed in worth believing in. That is the ultimate tribute for their sacrifice.
Love this for Nashville. None of it possible without the leadership of @JohnCooper4Nash whose relentlessness and vision and ability to tune out the *noise* made it happen
NEW: The integrity of our elections is not a partisan issue—it is the foundation of our republic
That’s why DDA is calling on every candidate in the May GA Supreme Court election & the incumbents above all—to make an unambiguous commitment: accept the results
My statement -TN:
To give you a sense of how stupid this is, on the 20 minute drive between the Krispy Kreme on Thompson Lane in Nashville and the Krispy Kreme on Mallory Lane in Brentwood, you pass through five different congressional districts.
State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important.
Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin, the only two candidates in the race with strong records of standing up for all Georgians.
Early voting is already underway and Election Day is May 19th. Find out where you can vote at https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB.
Over 4,000 young Americans are alive today who might not be — because of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline we built together.
The grief of losing a child is something that no parent should ever have to know.
We launched 988 in 2022. We invested in it. We fought for it. And now the data is in: an 11% drop in youth suicide. Thousands of kids who picked up the phone instead of giving up.
In my view, that’s what government is supposed to do.
A show for people who love politics but hate themselves.
A show about what will be, burdened by two has-beens.
A show that is like a fantasy football punishment for losing presidential elections.

An unforgettable evening in South Carolina celebrating our 46th President, @JoeBiden.
I have seen up close his heart, his compassion, and his unwavering belief in this country. When so much felt uncertain, he chose hope, steady leadership, and faith in the American people.
Honored to work with the amazing @AJASONLENAR and @ChristaleSpain to create a tribute video marking the anniversary of that historic victory and the work that followed. Grateful. 💙
