Every major Democrat has millions in their campaign account. The threat to democracy is big enough that we need to be funding mobilization and messaging right now - not just banking money for the next election. If we don't build right now, there might not be another election.
scoop: @ChrisMurphyCT is donating 100k from his political fund to Indivisible β the latest in a series of donations he says total ~1m to progressive organizing groups across taking on the Trump admin Murphy said fellow Dems should take notes w @bkamisar

The conversation @ezraklein has on his pod today with @TaNehisiCoats is just excellent, not easy to have, and the kind we need more of right now. Well worth a listen.

We need to do better, especially when we disagree. Driving ourselves further into polarized echo chambers as opposed to acknowledging pain isnβt going to solve anything and will only push towards radicalization.

I am proud to overall see left and right condemn violence. Yet to those on the left, come on. If you think political violence only happens to those you disagree with, remember Melissa and Mark Hortman. This violent and treating Americans as enemies must end.

Iβm a proud progressive and disagreed with Charlie Kirk on pretty much everything, but seeing people celebrate the loss of a fellow Americanβs life through political violence is horrifying. We have lost our way as a country. We need to do better, especially when we disagree

Ezra Klein on Charlie Kirk: βYou can dislike much of what Kirk believed and the following statement is still true: Kirk was practicing politics in exactly the right way. He was showing up to campuses and talking with anyone who would talk to him. He was one of the eraβs most

We agree with Charlie Kirk on basically nothing. Except that he deserves the right, as every human does, to speak freely without the threat of violence.

Before tonight I couldnβt have told you the name of any player on the New Jersey Devils. Now Markstrom may be one of my favorite players on the NHL to watch. Just wow.

Retail sales, manufacturing, home sales, and consumer confidence are all trending down. Grocery prices are soaring. The Atlanta Fedβs GDP estimate has gone from +3% when Trump took office to -2.8% this week. America isnβt back β itβs facing a recession.

Thatβs Tammy Baldwin β not me. You can keep track of all the hundreds of white men but itβs the 28 women in the Senate that trips you up, @FoxNews?

For those watching at home: a new mom with her 1-month-old baby just flew across the country to save millions of Americans from losing their Medicaid. @RepPettersen is a hero (and Congress should support our bill to allow proxy voting for new parents bc she shouldnβt have to be)

This is what Pete Buttigieg was doing as Secretary of Transportation, apparently.

Honestly, loving the bipartisanship here and the glance behind the curtain. For all we see on the news, our Reps. do have personal relationships and get to know each other.
As I continue to try and get to know all my new senate colleagues, I did a 1 on 1 with Sen. @lisamurkowski last week β and she surprised me with a gift of a dozen Alaskan salmon. Honestly, thatβs hard to beat!

Per @RepNancyMace's suggestion, #GRWM while I explain how USAID prevents terrorism and keeps Americans safe. https://t.co/lPrHY0zpF2
.@RepSaraJacobs, will you make a GRWM talking about why you & your party love terrorism?

Hereβs Kamala Harris handing out meals to families who have been impacted by the wildfires in LA. Her first day out of office and sheβs continuing to serve the public. This is what a real leader looks like.
