2025 felt like the longest year ever, but amidst all the chaos and lawlessness, one thing remained constant. Trump and his Republican allies did NOTHING to lower the soaring costs faced by working Americans. At this point, it’s clear the only pocketbooks they care about are those of billionaires.

15 years ago, Gabby Giffords was shot while hosting a community event in Arizona. Since then, she has dedicated her life to protecting others and ending gun violence. Her courage inspires us every day to keep fighting to end the scourge of gun violence in this country.

January 6, 2021 was an attempted coup meant to prevent the peaceable transition of power in our democracy.

This was the darkest day in modern American history, but Republicans are either openly celebrating this insurrection or ignoring it. Completely disgraceful and despicable.

The results are in for our Frosh Fantasy Football League. Minfinite Jest (my team) lost in a close final to The Sleeper (@juliejohnsontx.bsky.social). CMC and Chase Brown were awesome, but injuries to Mahomes, Davante Adams, and Marvin Harrison cost me.

Congrats Julie!

This is political retribution, plain and simple. Pete Hegseth is trampling our Constitution to go after Trump’s critics. It’s wrong, it’s illegal, and Hegseth must be held liable.

The invasion of Venezuela isn’t just 100% illegal, it’s also 100% stupid. This is a country of 30 million people. Occupying and running this country will cost us trillions at a time when too many people are already struggling to pay the bills.

Republicans need to stand up to this madness.

This decision is another example of extremist judicial activism by Trump judges who are making laws from the bench that inflict violence on our communities.

We must put a stop to this insanity. The first step is taking back the House later this year.

TL;DR

This is the most corrupt administration in history, and Trump is accepting bribes on a scale we have never seen in this country.
Trump’s Tangled Web of Deal-Making, Policy and Riches
The president, his family and some of their closest associates have engaged in a sprawling campaign of deals that stretches across industries and the globe.

2025 felt like the longest year of my life, but I’m thankful for those who worked tirelessly to fight for our democracy and make the world a better, kinder place. Here’s to 2026! Happy New Year!

Good riddance to 2025. May 2026 bring lots of much-needed change and a restoration of empathy, the rule of law, and democracy to our country. Happy new year!

Merry Christmas! I hope your day is filled with love, laughter, and cheer. For those of us who celebrate this holy day, let us be renewed with the spirit of loving thy neighbor, fighting for the vulnerable, and speaking truth to power.

The epidemic of gun violence in this country is unacceptable and cannot be normalized. I’m thankful to have the endorsement of Stop Gun Violence. Together, I am hopeful we can make progress towards eliminating gun violence in this country.

Trump may not literally be stealing Christmas this year, but he might as well be, as his economic policies have massively raised the costs of the gifts we give and the food we put on our table, all so billionaires can buy more yachts. His heart is indeed two sizes too small.

The DOJ is required to release the Epstein files today. But given their total disregard for the rule of law, they cannot be trusted. House Oversight Dems must be determined and diligent. The survivors—and the American people—deserve no less.

Corporations are making record profits even as the real economy tanks and working families are facing soaring costs. Trump’s tax giveaways to big businesses and the wealthy are driving this growing inequality, and this is not sustainable. It’s time to put average Americans first again.

🚨BREAKING:

We just learned that the court in my lawsuit — Neguse et al. v. ICE — has temporarily stopped the Trump administration from blocking Members of Congress from unannounced oversight visits to immigration detention facilities.

The rule of law will prevail.

Across the nation, families are bracing for a massive spike in their health care costs. Meanwhile, Republicans are making vacation plans and the Trump family is raking in billions in bribes from foreign governments and businesses.

What’s on Trump’s Xmas list this year?: 

✈️ $400m private jet 
🏛️ $300m ballroom 
🕰️ Solid gold Rolex
💰 Engraved gold bars

But Trump is on the naughty list, so instead of asking Santa, he asked a bunch of foreign governments instead!

It was wonderful spending the evening with the @dpoc.bsky.social in my home city of Irvine. Always grateful to celebrate with people who embody the true meaning of the holidays– welcoming the stranger, helping those in need, and fighting for a kinder, more inclusive community.

Americans are dealing with soaring costs and a stagnant job market, so naturally, Donald Trump is laser focused on building a gilded ballroom and renovating DC’s golf courses.

Big thanks to ICV College Dems for hosting me for a Q&A session last week. I‘m always grateful for the chance to hear from the next generation of leaders. Our democracy is stronger when young people are engaged and their voices are heard.

In the real world, families are being hammered by soaring costs and a flailing economy. Meanwhile, Trump- who appears mentally impaired- is living in a fantasy land where the economy is in “A+++++” territory and concerns about rising costs are a “hoax.”

Wishing you and your loved ones a happy and joyful Hanukkah!

Our democracy depends on a clear separation of powers. Donald Trump, with the full support of a corrupt and partisan Supreme Court, is defying the Constitution and asserting the powers of a dictator. This cannot stand. #NoKings

Fantasy FB playoffs have begun!

In our freshmen House league, it’s me vs. Johnny O (I’m on the right w/ a HUGE night from Kyle Pitts Sr.) and @mannionforny.bsky.social vs. @mcdonaldrivet.bsky.social.

@juliejohnsontx.bsky.social & @suhasforvirginia.bsky.social finished 1/2 and have a bye.
