The Felon in Chief - and the world’s greatest threat to peace, democracy, and humanity - pardoned a convicted drug trafficker. All while extrajudicially bombing smaller boats ‘suspected’ of drug trafficking. Utter insanity - literal insanity.

I'm co-leading a bipartisan coalition to urge Congress to reject Big Tech’s efforts to prevent states from enforcing AI regulations.

States should be able to enact their own regulations and protect its residents from AI's risk to children, public health, the economy, and more.

A judge ruled Lindsey Halligan’s appointment unlawful, and the cases she brought against Comey and James were tossed. So why should taxpayers fund the salary of someone who didn’t legally hold the position? We deserve accountability and clear answers.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Again, every elected Democrat needs to put out a video stating exactly what Kelly and the others said. If ever there were a line to draw in the sand, it’s here. The military is not the president’s Praetorian Guard.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

I still can’t figure out why the taxpayers of this country have to pay for FBI security details for the girlfriend of the Director.

Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

Gallego to Hegseth: "You will never ever be half the man that Sen. Kelly is. You, sir, are a coward. And the fact that you are following this order from the president shows how big of a coward you are. I can't wait until you are no longer the secretary of defense."

If Lincoln could speak of a “new birth of freedom” amid such darkness, surely, we can speak of national renewal today—not as nostalgia, but as obligation, a shared purpose toward which we can work.

Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

Perhaps Marjorie Taylor Greene can spare a thought for Paul Pelosi now she fears the power of Trump's rhetoric.

Don't get me wrong, nobody in this day and age, in a civilized society should feel threatened, especially by one's own nation's leader.

Trooper MuffinTop ought to be fully investigated - beyond this outrageous incident. If he displays this level of aggression under these circumstances, imagine how he reacts/acts under real pressure. I’d bet my last sweet penny that he’s treated others terribly.

Greene also said that as a Republican who votes “overwhelmingly” in favor of party legislation, “his aggression against me also fuels the venomous nature of his radical internet trolls (many of whom are paid), this is completely shocking to everyone.”
