A few weeks ago, my dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I won’t lie—it's been incredibly challenging for me and my family.

Now, I’m embarking on a journey to answer the questions so many of us face when it comes to providing care for our loved ones.

I hope you’ll join me.

Senate Republicans are trying to hide how bad Trump’s unqualified and radical nominees are by moving them forward in one package.

Americans deserve to see for themselves who they’re trying to appoint to serious positions of power.
December 9, 2025 at 2:19 AM
Pete Hegseth must release the unedited videos of his reckless and dangerous strikes in the Caribbean.

Congress will withhold a big chunk of his travel budget until he does so.

The American people deserve full transparency.

Republicans are nowhere on healthcare, and the clock is ticking.

Americans’ livelihoods are at stake. Our healthcare system is at stake.
December 9, 2025 at 1:08 AM
This week Republicans have a choice to make:

Support our bill for a clean, three-year extension of the ACA tax credits OR send premiums through the roof for millions of Americans.

Donald Trump has failed to deliver on the #1 thing the American people care about:

Costs.
December 8, 2025 at 11:55 PM
Add this to the list of ways Trump is raising your costs.

The planned merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern will increase prices for everything—from groceries to holiday gifts.
December 8, 2025 at 2:58 PM
Straight from DOD Inspector General’s Signalgate report:

This behavior is not just unprofessional—it’s dangerous.

Hegseth must resign NOW.

My message to Senate Republicans: When you choose bad nominees, you pay a price.

Just look at Secretary Pete Hegseth.
December 4, 2025 at 9:00 PM
Senate Republicans will try to push a nominations package that confirms a slew of horribly unqualified, radical nominees in one fell swoop.

Senate Democrats will oppose every single one of them.
December 4, 2025 at 8:17 PM
Pete Hegseth is not qualified to serve as Secretary of Defense. Our troops deserve better.

He must resign.
December 4, 2025 at 7:55 PM
Republicans have no hope of solving America’s healthcare crisis on their own.

They have NO plan.
December 4, 2025 at 7:17 PM
The NYC Young Republicans are pivoting from having Nazi-sympathizers in their ranks to featuring them at their galas.

When people show you who they are, believe them.

For President Trump to pardon one of the worst convicted narco traffickers while claiming he wants to fight drug smuggling is hypocrisy and corruption at its ugliest.
December 4, 2025 at 3:20 PM
Pete Hegseth needs to tell the truth and release the full, unedited video of the September 2nd boat strikes.
December 3, 2025 at 7:19 PM
While Democrats are united in lowering the cost of healthcare for Americans, Republicans are a total mess.

One day, Trump floats a so-called “healthcare plan."

The next, Speaker Johnson forces him to shoot it down.

And the American people are paying the price.
December 2, 2025 at 9:24 PM
We need a classified briefing from the Department of Defense about what happened during the operations off the coast of Venezuela.

Secretary Hegseth must be part of those briefings, and he should go one step further and testify publicly before the Armed Services Committee, under oath.
December 2, 2025 at 7:47 PM
Pete Hegseth must release the full tapes of the September 2nd attack.

He says he did nothing wrong, so he should prove it.

The American people want the truth.
December 2, 2025 at 7:21 PM
Trump just pardoned Juan Orlando Hernandez, the former President of Honduras convicted of trafficking 400 tons of cocaine to the United States.
December 2, 2025 at 6:26 PM
Today would be a great day for Pam Bondi to release the Epstein files—a full release of the remaining files.

The 30 day deadline is near. The complete truth must come out.
December 2, 2025 at 3:27 PM
Trump’s only principles are hypocrisy and corruption. 

Bombing unmarked boats in the Caribbean one day, pardoning notorious drug traffickers the next. 

It’s all the more reason for the Senate to conduct vigorous oversight of this Administration’s actions. And we will.

From my family to yours, wishing everyone in New York and across America a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Today, we remember that our country is strongest when we show gratitude, care for one another, and look out for those who need it most.

My heart breaks for the victims of this horrific shooting in Washington DC near the White House.

I am closely monitoring the situation and am praying for the wounded National Guardsmen and their families.

I thank all the first responders for their quick action to capture the suspect.
November 26, 2025 at 8:26 PM
Today would be a great day for Pam Bondi to release the Epstein files.
November 21, 2025 at 7:43 PM
The Epstein Files Transparency Act has passed the Senate with unanimous consent—but the job is not done.

This bill is a command for the president to be fully transparent and provide full honesty to the American people.

Anything less than full transparency will be unacceptable.
