When we came into office, we uncovered a $12 billion budget deficit.

Today, I’m proud to say we brought it down to zero.

We didn’t close the gap on the backs of working people.

We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets and making historic investments in public housing.

Call it Pothole Politics. Call it Democratic Socialism. It's government that delivers for the people who make this city run.

That’s what New Yorkers deserve. And that’s what we will keep fighting for every single day.

New data reveals that newborn deaths are skyrocketing under Trump and RFK Jr.

This comes as the Trump administration has stopped recommending the Hepatitis B vaccine to newborns and RFK Jr. refuses to agree that the vitamin K shot is safe and necessary for infants.

Thomas Massie reveals that the White House took Lauren Boebert to the White House Situation Room, a room used for major crises, and demanded that she remove her name from the Epstein discharge petition.

"The president vetoed a bill that would've brought water to a large portion of Colorado."

"Why are people in Colorado being deprived of water because their representative wants to expose a child trafficking ring?"

A wild story from @_VictoriaGibson and @GhadaaSharif: the federal Liberal government promised FIFA that if Canada hosted some World Cup matches, it was willing to override some labour rights, like mandated days of rest.

New: Babies who don’t get the vitamin K shot are 81 times more likely to develop severe bleeding. In many cases, oxygen can’t reach their brains and blood pools around their skulls. Yet driven by misinformation, more parents are refusing the injection. https://t.co/CdX5i3SKZN

New details have been released about Palm Beach International Airport, recently renamed to Donald J. Trump International Airport.

Their new contract requires the airport to purchase Trump merchandise from Trump's own licensor, directly violating the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution.

New: Investigators found that leaders of a prison gang in Puerto Rico were selling inmates drugs in exchange for voting for Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón, a longtime Republican. After Trump’s election, prosecutors were told not to pursue charges. https://t.co/W5STcmWguR

The government knows our marches for Palestine are made up of all faiths and none.

The are suppressing our hard-fought right to protest for one reason: to hide their complicity in genocide.

Israel’s occupation must end. Until then, our movement for peace isn’t going anywhere.

This is disgraceful, @Reuters. He is charged with the attempted murder of THREE men, two Jews and one Muslim. It is wholly unacceptable for a newswire to mislead the public by reporting incorrect information.

Why isn’t every major news outlet covering the fact that Israel now controls nearly two-thirds of Gaza?

They were not intercepted. They were abducted in international waters.

This is piracy - and is a flagrant violation of international law.

I co-introduced historic legislation to increase the minimum wage to $25.

As someone who taught economics at Stanford, here is why it makes sense.

The real minimum wage was $14 in 1968.

Today it is half, but productivity has increased 2.5x.

Instead of extractive capitalism, we need a free enterprise system that pays workers what they are worth.

The US Ag Dept rejection of all 4 women farmers chosen by their peers for the United Soybean Board seems like a small thing. But "it’s really a big deal because it’s just another thing of where the current admin views women, and what their role should be."

Colorectal cancer rates in adults under 50 have doubled since the late 1980s.

One in five colorectal cancer diagnoses now occurs in someone under 55, up from one in ten in 1995.

A new study highlights the most concrete factor responsible for this trend.

Using DNA methylation profiles as molecular records of lifetime exposure, the authors compared cancer patients under 50 with patients over 70 and identified the herbicide picloram as a significant new risk factor.

There are converging lines of evidence.

The picloram exposure signature was significantly elevated in early-onset tumor tissue and replicated across nine independent patient cohorts. Across 21 years of US county-level data spanning seven states, higher picloram use tracked higher early-onset CRC incidence, and the signal held after adjusting for income, education, and the use of other pesticides.

Picloram associated tumors also showed a distinct molecular profile, with APC mutations at 74% versus 90% in low-exposure tumors, suggesting these cancers follow a different biological pathway than classical CRC.

Picloram entered commercial use in 1964. Patients now diagnosed in their 70s were already adults before meaningful exposure was possible. Patients now diagnosed in their 30s and 40s were exposed across childhood and adolescence, the developmental windows when epigenetic programming is most plastic.

This study delivers the first triangulation of molecular, ecological, and temporal evidence pointing at a specific environmental driver of one of the steepest cancer trends in modern epidemiology.
