I ran for Congress in 2024. I am now supporting Bajun Mavalwalla for Congress in 2026 for Washington's 5th CD. You should support him as well.
Disturbing, to say the least.
Trump has hung a picture of Putin in the White House. Trump wants everyone in America to know who he loves the most and he wants to see his picture every day.

The United States Attorney General should be an elected position similarly to how 43 out of 50 states elect their Attorney General separately from their Governor.

Thank you @govwesmoore.bsky.social.

Excellent job.
We’ve made historic investments in our local law enforcement while also targeting the root causes of crime, including fighting to end child poverty in our state.

Russian military airplanes are so vulnerable, that they have to be protected by the president of the United States.

A stand-up comedian in Russia, Artemy Ostanin, is facing six years in prison for telling a joke that offended some veterans.

Is anyone in MAGA going to speak up and defend this man's free speech rights? They seem to care a lot about free speech in Europe but never mention Russia.

It does make for an interesting contrast to see people argue that Biden left the border open while also arguing how there were no issues during the millions of deportations during Biden's administration....

#GVerse So Republican Alabama Rep.Barry Moore held a town hall in Baldwin County where he was asked why immigrants aren’t getting due process & he said they aren’t allowed it & his constituents let him know he was full of crap & it’s a violation of the Constitution & he fled out the back

The non-compliance is troubling, to say the least.
US District Court Judge Patrick Schiltz ordered acting ICE director Todd Lyons to appear in court Friday & warned he could be held in contempt for repeatedly failing to comply with court orders.

ICE has repeatedly ignored or delayed bond hearings & release orders for detained immigrants.

Trump sends Witkoff (from a Russian family and whose son manages Trump's crypto business) and Kushner (manages Middle Eastern wealth funds) to negotiate a "peace deal" with Dmitriev (Manages Russia's/Putin's wealth fund) behind closed doors.

Nothing to see here...
Any territory Ukraine withdraws from Russia will occupy, and the Trump-led US will let them.

Doesn’t matter what Putin or Trump officials say now or what Ukraine gets in writing, no promise from them is credible.

I’m pretty sure the Ukrainians know this. Anyone trying to pressure them should too.

Fair question.
Ironic how the Epstein files were required to be released by law and the Trump admin just said "no thanks". What are we even doing here?
January 29, 2026 at 1:24 AM
@warnock.senate.gov Thank you. ICE agents know they act with impunity and that empowers them to be more aggressive. That needs to change.
Here’s the unspoken truth.

ICE has become accountable to one person only: Donald Trump.

He is building a paramilitary force with no guardrails and it’s already trampling our rights as Americans.

Thank you @govwesmoore.bsky.social. Bipartisan Committees is the best approach to creating district maps.
The new maps created by the Governor’s Redistricting Advisory Committee not only make our districts more competitive, but also make sure that Marylanders’ voices are actually heard.

Trump is potentially offering US peacekeepers in Ukraine if Ukraine is willing to give up the rest of the Donbas region to Russia. This is all an obvious trap and Zelensky knows it.

Ukraine's new Minster of Defense is turning the elimination of Russia soldiers on the battlefield into an E-Sports competition. Drone units earn "ePoints" and are competing with other units on a leader board. This is wild!
