Jeff Bezos paid $50 million for a wedding. He just got a $16 billion tax break. He just laid off 60,000 people.

And you're furious about a kid getting a free school lunch?

I look forward to working closely with Mayor-elect Wilson to address homelessness, improve public safety, and make Seattle and King County more affordable places to live.

I called Mayor-elect Wilson to extend my congratulations. It’s been a very long time since King County and Seattle have both elected new leaders at the same time. That means we have an opportunity for a true reset, to try new strategies and form new partnerships to tackle our region’s challenges.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

So the next time you read a hit piece on a Democrat who called them out or see some self-righteous bullshit about how they seek the truth without fear or favor, pull out this email and ask: What did the NY Times know and when did they know it? You will get nothing but crickets from them in response.

Not only was the Times obsessed with Hillary Clinton's emails while ignoring emails about Donald Trump sent to its own reporter, but since then it has constantly attacked anyone who dared look into questions of Trump's character. All with sanctimony.

Now we know it was all a big lie.

As bad as what Trump did is in these emails, and how that is absolutely the No. 1 topic of conversation...we've also got to talk about Authors hiding important stuff from the public to preserve it for...their books? For future books?

It took 50 days and a whole lot of nonsense, but Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva is finally in her seat.

Mike Johnson didn’t stall her swearing-in by accident—he did it on purpose.

Because protecting predators was apparently more urgent than serving the people.

Donald Trump said it was a “hoax”, so why would releasing the Epstein files be a hostile act? 🤔

Let me be clear—House Democrats have been the ones pushing to get the Epstein files out. We’ve been calling for truth and transparency while Republicans drag their feet and play politics. But thanks to House Democrats, the truth’s coming out, one way or another.

It was “NO” yesterday.
It’s “NO” today.
And it’ll be “NO” when it gets to the House.

I’m not voting for something that forces millions of Americans to choose between seeing a doctor and putting food on their table.
