Pete Hegseth needs to resign or be fired. Now. He’s a walking, talking national security embarrassment.

The disastrous and illegal Venezuela strikes - and his refusal to accept responsibility - should be the last straw.

Medicare *shouldn’t have* premiums…or copays or deductibles.

Medicare should cover vision, dental, and hearing.

And Medicare should cover everyone.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

What do you call a leader with no followers? Just a guy taking a walk.

He's not just a senator. He's the *leader*. His job isn't his personal vote. His job is to unify and lead his caucus against the regime.

Pritzker gets it.
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.

Governor Pritzker is right. No more blank checks for Netanyahu’s right-wing government and its military. No more blank checks for war crimes against Palestinians.

There are more than a million Dominicans in NYC, and yesterday on 6th Avenue I felt every bit of that pride.

Thank you for welcoming me in to celebrate the vibrant, beautiful culture and community that does so much for our city. 🇩🇴

Netanyahu’s plan to reoccupy Gaza is key to the far-right’s goal of taking over Gaza & the West Bank and forcing Palestinians out. Meanwhile Trump is making us a subcontractor in this operation. US taxpayers should not be funding what amounts to ethnic cleansing by another name.

We have a new inside look showing you how committed the US is to Israel — even at the expense of Americans, including one killed weeks ago.

Now, almost too aptly, right after that (and after Congress responded by giving more weapons to Israel), Israeli settlers have just killed *another* American:

To them every part of government - even Social Security - is just a source of enrichment for their billionaire friends. "Privatizing" Social Security is just about getting Wall Street a bunch of fees to manage money.

Just one reason I think Zohran Mamdani is a wonderful human being.
New Yorkers—as you watch the horrific images of kids starving to death in Gaza, remember 3 things:
1. Netanyahu is enabling this starvation, can stop it, & won’t
2. Cuomo has voluntarily joined Netanyahu’s legal team to defend his war crimes
3. Mamdani say he’ll to arrest Netanyahu if he visits NYC
