These two ineffective Dem leaders lack backbones, guts and listening to the people they are supposed to serve. IMO, both need to be replaced asap as they are siding with the fascists more often than the people. #StopFundingICE #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

As governor, I’m proud to work with the Legislature to raise the minimum wage to $20 for fast-food workers and $25 for health care workers.
Meanwhile, workers in red states still earn just $7.25 an hour. Try paying rent, raising a family, or affording an education on that.

I’m starting to think maybe they need to get rid of that damn peace prize. Seems like it causes more harm than it’s worth. We got peace prize recipients offering to trade it to imperialist regime changers who murdered her countrymen in exchange for political power.

We have so much opportunity in Canada — to create better jobs and a more independent economy, and build better futures for our grandchildren.
I sat down with Global News last week to talk about how we're going to seize those opportunities and build Canada strong.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case.
The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant.
Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.
