Great job @HawleyMO & @SenWarren LOVE THIS.
Anyone in Congress that doesn’t support this, doesn’t want lower cost healthcare for Americans.
This is a no brainer. Let’s hope @POTUS puts his weight behind this
Minnesota may be known for our lakes, Bob Dylan, and Prince - but our civic engagement runs deeper.
If Donald Trump intended to make an example out of Minnesota, then I am damn proud of that example.
Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come. This is one of them.
Taken just a few minutes ago outside the ICE facility in Portland that Trump claims is under siege. My message to Donald Trump is this: we don’t need you here. Stay the hell out of our city.
I’m not writing this as a fan, but as a dad. A football-loving, middle-aged man who’s watched the noise online grow louder and uglier. And I can’t stay silent anymore.
I’m talking about Taylor Swift. Not her fashion or fame, but the way people grown adults mock her simply for cheering, smiling, and showing up for someone she loves. That’s what bothers you?
Our kids notice. Daughters hear the jokes about “too much Taylor.” Sons learn from the eye-rolls about which women society chooses to ridicule for being visible and joyful.
Here’s the truth: Taylor Swift has earned over 300 awards, including multiple Grammys. Her Eras Tour added nearly $5 billion to the U.S. economy. She donates to food banks in every city she visits, quietly and without asking for applause. Her lyrics are studied at the world’s top universities, not because she’s famous, but because she’s brilliant.
And when a radio DJ assaulted her and sued her, she didn’t hide. She counter-sued for one symbolic dollar, won, and reminded young women everywhere: you matter, and your voice matters.
So no, I’m not a fan because of her music. I’m a fan because she uses her platform with strength, dignity, and purpose. Our daughters deserve better. Our sons need to learn that kindness, success, and womanhood are never reasons for ridicule. Via~Nature Mind
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped…”

.@GavinNewsom: "I'm sick of it... This party needs to wake up. These guys aren't screwing around. And I say this not in a literal sense, but they're assassins when it comes to the way they weaponize grievance and the way they play politics. Enough. I mean, what more goddamn evidence do we need? They have rolled back the last half century in real time. That's just six months, right? Can you imagine this guy having an additional 42 months with no system of checks and balances? No oversight? I mean, seriously, the hell else more evidence do you need?"
A federal judge has ordered the National Institutes of Health to reinstate hundreds of millions of dollars in grants canceled by the Trump admin, saying the terminations were illegal and discriminatory.
Here’s ACOG’s statement concerning the removal of pregnant women from COVID vaccination recommendations:
“We also understand that despite the change in recommendations from HHS, the science has not changed. It is very clear that COVID-19 infection during pregnancy can be catastrophic and lead to major disability, and it can cause devastating consequences for families. The COVID-19 vaccine is safe during pregnancy, and vaccination can protect our patients and their infants after birth.”

That’s a shame. If your Republican representative won’t meet with you because their agenda is so unpopular, maybe a Democrat will.
Hell, maybe I will. If your congressman refuses to meet, I’ll come host an event in their district to help local Democrats beat ‘em.
CNN's Abby Phillip working overtime to sanewash Trump today. Trump's statements about Jimmy Carter have not been "incredibly gracious." Trump routinely smeared him during his stump speeches as second worst president in history, behind Biden -- even as Carter was in hospice care
The Presidential Medal of Freedom is among our nation’s highest honors. I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this award than you, @HillaryClinton. I’m so happy we could celebrate together.
BREAKING: Heads exploding all over MAGA world as President Biden bestows the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Hillary Rodham Clinton! 🥇
BRAVO! 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
Wes Moore watching the Army-Navy game in the stands with cadets, while Trump "watches" from a suite with billionaires, perfectly captures the energy Democrats need to bring over the next four years. Wes Moore gets it.
