I'm sick after seeing the video of Charlie Kirk being shot.
Violence against civilians is never okay. Political violence — no matter who is hurt — will always beget worse political violence. And it has no place in our country.

🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 to the amazing conductor on @mbta-cr.bsky.social train 736 inbound. He helped the mom of an infant lift her stroller on board, warned passengers which parts of the car were not as well air-conditioned AND let me catch my breath after a sprint from the parking lot before asking for my ticket.

Thank you @mbta-cr.bsky.social for holding the train while I sprinted the entire length of the platform - and for opening a door closer to where I was so that I didn’t make the whole train late. I always forget only one door opens midday!!

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks.
We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.
