Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it. I’m introducing legislation to ensure that the Smithsonian preserves the propaganda tools that the Trump Administration is using to warp and censor American history in the president’s own authoritarian self-image.
My bill will allow future generations to learn about the president who wielded his powers like a tyrant-king and the Americans who fought back for democracy and freedom. https://t.co/a2eVKJXsdQ

I'm proud to be the first sitting U.S. President to visit the Amazon rainforest.
We must recommit to protecting our planet.
Our world's forests are one of the most powerful solutions we have to fight climate change.

This has been a dark week for Jews:
- A large-scale, premeditated pogrom injured dozens of Jews in Amsterdam. Media figures have yet to stop justifying the attack.
- A Jewish student in Dublin was cornered in a bar bathroom by three men who, after asking if he was Jewish and receiving a “yes,” beat him severely.
- A man in Crown Heights attempted to kidnap a visibly Jewish child walking with his father.
- A 13-year-old visibly Jewish child was slapped in the face by an older man on his way to school in Crown Heights.
- Two Jewish students at Chicago’s DePaul University were attacked by masked men while hosting a table inviting people to engage in peaceful dialogue about Israel.
- A visibly Jewish man in NYC was slashed in the face with a blade, requiring 18 stitches, by a man who shouted, “F*** you guys.”
This list can’t begin to capture the extent of antisemitic vandalism, verbal harassment, and intimidation — but it does highlight the escalation in physical violence against Jews.
And world’s horrifying indifference to it.
This week will go down in history as a turning point for violent antisemitism in the 21st century.

With these things in mind, I’ve done my research and come to the clear conclusion that I’ll be voting for @KamalaHarris and #TimWalz this time around.

There is, of course, an in-between place—but the more you lean toward the grand adventure side, the clearer the choice becomes. More good comes from focusing on building a world where disparities aren’t so pronounced…
