It’s nice to have an unofficial “Chief of Staff” who likes to travel everywhere with you to provide advice and counsel. bsky.app/profile/patr...

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

Americans are facing a health care crisis. If we don’t extend the health care tax credit, premiums will double for millions of Americans. 3/4 of those hurt are in states Trump won.

Congressional Republicans need to come to the table and end this crisis.

Today, Senator Kaine and I will force the Senate to vote on the administration’s decision to blow up ships in the Caribbean.

If a president can unilaterally put people or groups on a list and kill them, there is no meaningful limit to his use of force.

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t.

And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.

Did I get that right?
