@TheFigen_ That's the winning ticket to happiness! Dancing with your baby matters big time. We're made for dancing to music, feeling the rhythm, sparking the language instinct.

Today, my son Sam and I showed Speaker Johnson why you don't mess with moms.

Thanks to overwhelming bipartisan support, we stopped the Speaker’s attempt to kill our resolution to allow new parents in Congress to vote remotely.

This is a major step forward in our fight to remove barriers that make it difficult for new parents to serve in Congress, and I’m incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made. Thank you to everyone who stood with us today.

Investors, consumers and companies are showing the first signs of souring on Donald Trump’s vision. With his aggressive and erratic protectionism, he is playing with fire https://t.co/IlrQIAbNdR

Zelenskyy has shown his gratitude to the American people many times over. I'm thankful to him for showing what a brave and steadfast leader looks like.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

Answer to Vance: Zelenskyy has thanked our country over and over again both privately and publicly.
And our country thanks HIM and the Ukrainian patriots who have stood up to a dictator, buried their own & stopped Putin from marching right into the rest of Europe. Shame on you.

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. NUCLEAR SUB FORCED TO TURN BACK AFTER FUEL SNUB

The USS Delaware (SSN-791), a Virginia-class nuclear attack submarine, found itself stranded off Norway’s coast after Haltbakk Bunkers (HB), one of the country’s largest marine fuel suppliers, refused to refuel it.

This move isn’t just a business decision—it’s a political statement.

In an official post, HB condemned President Trump’s recent actions as a “backstabbing TV show,” praised Ukrainian President Zelenskyy for his restraint, and declared “No Fuel to Americans!” while urging other European suppliers to follow suit.

The timing? Impeccable. This comes right after the contentious Trump-Zelenskyy meeting, where Vice President JD Vance accused Zelenskyy of leading “propaganda tours” to highlight Russian invasion destruction, provoking a heated exchange and creating a public spectacle. Coincidence?

Or are we witnessing U.S. influence being whittled away while adversaries take notes?

I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.

We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.

It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.

It's an insidious power that has been hiding in the shadows for some time...and when the stakes were at their highest in this election, it fully revealed itself.

The American Oligarchy.

They control our Supreme Court, much of Congress, and the flow of information to the masses via legacy, mainstream and social media.

They decide the national conversation, how to keep us at each other's throats while they continue to amass wealth and power completely unchecked.

They put their thumbs on the scale of justice and poured billions into this election. They chose Trump because he was desperate and would capitulate to their demands. They chose a running mate to replace him in case he became too unhinged to control.

Consider how many disqualifying facts about Trump never saw the light of day...or didn't get the attention they deserved...or got drowned out by propaganda. They took a mentally spent buffoon and presented him as a hero to the masses.

Despite Biden successfully steering us out of a global recession and strengthening our economy, they maintained the national tone about the price of groceries being too high. Despite Trump's obvious mental decline, their media outlets remained reticent to press the issue.

We struggle to unite as a nation because they're too good at keeping us divided. We are drowning in disinformation because they control all of it.

They have successfully created imaginary villains for us to fight...each other.

It seems like we are a democracy careening towards fascism, when the reality is they're using the specter of fascism to keep us on edge while they turn America into a compliant oligarchy.

Whether you are a democrat, republican, independent or MAGA, we have a common foe.

Some of us just don't know it yet.
