History will judge Chuck Schumer as entirely ill-equipped for this moment. We're a year into Trump's second term, and Mr. Schumer has shown no improvement in comms or strategy. I try my best to see the good in our party leaders because I understand we're in uncharted territory,

I will not vote for a DHS budget that gives more money to Stephen Miller’s goon squad. I won’t fund terrorizing communities or targeting everyday people just trying to live their lives.

The next government shutdown could hit at the end of this month, and if the budget bill includes more funding for ICE, then shut it down. Shut the government down. ICE is a horror show of abuse, a violent culture, and routine human rights violations. Every Democrat in Congress

ICE is now using a Palantir tool to map neighborhoods and assign “deportation scores” in “target-rich environments” fed by HHS data. Today it’s immigrants. Tomorrow it’s dissidents. If you think this won’t be repurposed for activists or protesters, you aren't paying attention.

In May, I told Rubio that locking up students for exercising their free speech rights was outrageous & unlawful. He scoffed. Now, a judge has said he & others engaged in an “unconstitutional conspiracy” to take away those rights. We must defend our freedoms at every turn.

Mark my words: the violence by ICE will get worse and their terrorism will become far more visceral than it is now. And when that happens, think about the Democrats who are currently downplaying it. When this happens to your loved ones and you're shocked because you never thought

How to lose the 21st century to China: 1. Unilaterally disarm regarding the soft power competition by ending economic aid and international media agencies. 2. Impose tariffs irrationally on everyone. 3. Invade Greenland, break up NATO, and isolate the US from the entire world.

It’s not a coincidence that as union membership goes down, wealth inequality has gone up. It’s not a coincidence that the decline of union membership mirrors the decline of the middle class. We need labor organizing to return the balance of power to the hands of hardworking

The Virginia legislature today passed four constitutional amendments — by day 3 of 2026 session: —protect abortion rights —repeal the same-sex marriage ban —allow mid-decade redistricting —greatly expand voting rights restoration. These will all go to 2026 referendums.

I think we are getting close to the point at which the athletes on Minnesota professional sports teams should start refusing to take the field/court/ice Something has to be done to underscore the national emergency we are in, because I still do not think corporate media gets it

Let's level set the discussion: What we have learned from Los Angeles, Chicago and now Minneapolis are: 1) The blitzes of ICE and CBP agents into cities has PROVOKED rather than prevented chaos and mayhem. 2) The vast majority of people they're seizing are NOT criminal aliens.

"Sen. Chris Murphy, the ranking Democrat on the DHS budget subcommittee, plans legislation that would require agents to have warrants for arrests, ban them from wearing masks, limit the use of guns by ICE, and restrict the Border Patrol to the border." https://t.co/fcaulzFK1z

The struggle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right. The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. Everyone must choose which side they’re on.

Five years ago today, Donald J. Trump sent a mob to attack the Capitol and then did nothing for 187 minutes as he watched law enforcement fight for their lives and our democracy. Despite his attempts to whitewash January 6, 2021, we remember the violence of that dark day, the

Dear Greenland: For what it's worth, most Americans are mortified over the embarrassing antics of the Trump admin regarding your autonomy. We think it's fucking weird behavior, too. Greenland is for Greenlanders.

The reason why @ZohranKMamdani is taking such an aggressive posture against bad big landlords like Pinnacle is simple, he’s able to do it bc unlike most of our prior Mayors he wasn’t bribed by them

In less than a week, I will be sworn in as the next mayor of New York City. It was only possible because of the more than 100,000 people who volunteered on our campaign. Here’s a story about one of them, my mother.
