It’s hard to believe that it’s now been 25 years since 9/11/01. When I was in New York City this week, I took a moment to reflect on the thousands of lives that were lost there, at the Pentagon, and in Pennsylvania on that very dark day and in the years after.

You know he’s lying because the GOP has the House and Senate majorities right now. They could write a bill and pass it tomorrow if they wanted to!

In February 2025, Trump promised Americans checks from the money “saved” by DOGE.
He lied.
In December 2025, he promised Americans $2,000 checks from his tariff “proceeds”.
He lied.
Last night, he promised every American adult $5,000 ONLY IF Republicans maintain their House and Senate majorities. Guess what?
He’s lying again.

Congress must urgently hold hearings on frontier research. The leaders of these massive AI companies owe us transparency about what they're doing. We can’t afford to continue the Trump strategy of letting billionaires play with the safety of humanity.

Anthropic Says It Blocked Possible Efforts to Build Biological Weapons

In a new report, the A.I. start-up added that it could not determine if the research was legitimate or nefarious, leading the company to shut down the work.

I was proud to sign an amicus brief in this case and am pleased to see this news. The D.C. Circuit unanimously agreed that you don't surrender your privacy when you pay taxes. The admin needs to stop punishing people who are following the law and stop breaking it themselves.

Appeals court upholds ruling barring IRS from sharing data with ICE

A federal appeals court on Tuesday upheld a lower court ruling blocking information sharing between the IRS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after the immigration agency requested the …

For me to best represent our state in DC, I need to hear directly from Vermonters. Last week, we had an agriculture roundtable in Addison County to hear from folks who are working the land on what they’re experiencing and what they need from us to be able to keep doing this important work.

The time for burying our heads in the sand is over. If the people working directly on these technologies are saying this, it’s time to pump the brakes. We can’t let these massive AI companies literally gamble with the future of humanity.

@EvanHub: Jacob is correct here—we really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans! I personally think it is >10% within the next decade. I believe Anthropic is trying its best, but we do not yet have a plan to solve alignment for superintelligence and are not clearly on track to.

QT: @hilbertspaess: The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade. This is not a marketing stunt. If anything, many executives and senior researchers will couch their phrasing in the press to sound sensible - but I hear the same people express fear privately. No other human activity poses this level of danger.

The @wsj.com is reporting that Lewandowski tried to get the Qataris and Emiratis to hire him "on the side" so he could help them with issues he had insider knowledge on. Just blatant corruption from top to bottom in this administration. We will hold them accountable.

Chasing Side Deals, Flexing Influence: Lewandowski’s Power Moves at DHS

Kristi Noem’s close adviser effectively controlled billions in spending at Homeland Security; Lewandowski denies seeking business or playing any role in agency’s contracts.

Federal funding will bring @benningtoncollege.bsky.social, @middlebury.bsky.social, @uvmvermont.bsky.social, @landmarkcollege.bsky.social, and state agencies together to research how forever chemicals are affecting our environment. This is exactly the type of research our government should support.

$7.9 million grant to fund PFAS research at Bennington College, other institutions

BENNINGTON — The National Science Foundation has awarded $7.9 million to Bennington College and three other Vermont colleges to establish the PFAS Environmental Research Network – "a four-year initiat...

So many Americans are avoiding the news right now. And I totally get it – it's rough out there! But I do encourage you to use that time to lean into your communities 💪🏻

In case you missed it, the Pentagon was caught secretly raiding the NIH for funding. How can the record-high DOD budget not be enough?? Secretary Hegseth, you should probably stop your war of choice in Iran if your department is so short on funds.

'Outrageous': Pentagon Secretly Working to Divert Billions From National Institutes of Health | Common Dreams

"These funds were provided for lifesaving medical research, not as extra money for the Department of Defense," said Rep. Rosa DeLauro.

This weekend, Trump posted an AI-generated image of himself trading stocks in the Oval Office. This comes as he’s sending our servicemembers into war and Americans can’t afford their daily lives. He doesn’t know the first thing about loyalty to the American people.

Today, I’m thinking about all the working people in our country who are working so hard but are still having a tough time making ends meet. I’m redoubling my efforts to keep them at the center of everything I do.

People can’t afford their health care and now prices are set to go up even more. We need Republicans in Congress to join us to take concrete action to reverse these trends.

The New York Times
Employer Health Costs Are Expected to Spike in 2027
A new U.S. survey anticipates an average increase of 11 percent unless benefits are cut, the highest rate in decades. Other findings also predict a sharp rise.

This is what happens when we gut the agencies that are there to protect us against these things. Just because we chose to take this path before doesn’t mean we can’t choose a different one going forward. You should not have to play a game of chance every time you walk into a grocery store.
