Tell me again how women are too emotional to hold office... 🙄

Just wanted to tell @lastweektonight.com and @jilltwiss.bsky.social that my 5 year-old loves A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo. What great lessons about love, friendship, speaking up for what’s right, and the power of voting all in a funny bedtime story. Thank you!

Land of the free, my ass. If this doesn't bother you deeply, you're not much of an American.

Truly alarming. Buying votes…

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

Musk’s staffers have entered an independent government agency by force. Employees from DOGE are now inside the Washington offices of the United States Institute of Peace. This comes just days after agency representatives were unable to gain access to the building on Friday being blocked by lawyers.

Paul Martin, the inspector general for the USAID, has been fired after resisting the administration. Just a day ago, his office released a report warning that staff reductions and spending freezes put hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars at risk of misuse and waste. This is the way.

Not a single person in the Executive Branch — not Donald Trump, not Elon Musk, and not any of their cronies — has the authority to shut down USAID. Congress created the agency by statute.

We ask a lot of our civil servants. Today, we ask of them another task — show up to work. Continue to serve.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.
