Pete Hegseth and others Trumpers insist that everyone has a binary and biblical gender assignment at birth. But he insists on calling our brave female fighter pilots "boys." Is he that much of a misogynist, is he just stupid, or both?

Context for Sec. Hegseth's statement "we give glory to God" after Trump's unilateral and illegal act of war. Nothing subtle here.

Honored to receive National Marine Sanctuary Foundation's "Ocean Leadership Award" this week. As we continue pushing good ocean policy, I'll also keep fighting against Trump's disastrous agenda of crippling NOAA, demonizing science, and prioritizing short-term profits for special interests.

3 thoughts in response to Speaker Johnson here:
1. Adding the token "Judeo" here is a neat trick MAGA Republicans do to camouflage their Christian nationalism. Hegseth forgot that with his explicitly Christian "invitation" to the Pentagon workforce, so Johnson cleaned it up for him.

The MAGA Congressman in CA's 3rd district refuses to face his constituents in town hall meetings, so Rep. Sam Liccardo and I gave 400+ wonderful people in Roseville what they deserve: a real in-person town hall. Great questions, respectful civic dialogue. What are MAGA Republicans so afraid of?

Best Hootenanny ever last night in Petaluma with 350 folks joining @raskin.house.gov and me. Jamie fired us all up with a spirited call to defend democracy and then joined the band for a few songs. Great fun for a serious cause (winning the '26 mid-terms).

For no particular reason, I'm just remembering how President Obama once dropped in on the Congressional Baseball Game while I was playing 3rd base - and instead of asking everyone to stop and make a big deal of his appearance, he just hung out and we kept playing.

From the first of my two rallies today. Thousands of folks showed up in Marin and joined me in a song that I think should be our anthem in this moment.

Trump's rightwing hate preachers are working overtime to assure their MAGA followers everything is just fine. Feel better?

The market has crashed and we are lurching into a Trump recession, but take heart: Trump's official White House Spiritual Advisor just "cancelled" all demonic attacks on our economy (via X).

I approve of this message from my favorite musician of all time. I will oppose Trump's disastrous betrayal of Ukraine with everything I've got.

One of my favorite self-owns from Christian nationalist trolls triggered by my protest over the National Prayer Breakfast being held in the US Capitol. THIS is what I was protesting - it's the whole point of why we need separation of church and state.

Folks: I understand your fear and exasperation and why so many of you are demanding that Democrats "DO SOMETHING" to stop Trump. I want you to know this Democrat is doing everything he can of to meet this moment and make a difference. If you have better ideas, I'm all ears.

The constitutional crisis is not over - they're just withdrawing an incompetent OMB memo while vowing to keep moving forward with an illegal federal funding freeze.

Trump's OMB nominee Russ Vought is an extreme Christian nationalist who openly declares that non-Christians "stand condemned." He may soon be purging the federal workforce and rewriting the rules for immigration to favor Christians. If he has his way, the Constitution will "stand condemned."
