Mail-in ballots are safe, secure, and necessary for our military servicemembers, people with disabilities, and anyone who can’t easily access the polls. Trump’s attacks on voting—by mail or in person—are voter suppression. www.npr.org/2025/08/18/n...

Thrilled to meet with @albomp.bsky.social to discuss the enduring partnership between the US and Australia on everything from critical minerals to shared naval security to advanced technologies. America is safer, stronger, & more powerful when we align with our global network of allies and friends.
Another ridiculous, baseless attack by DNI Gabbard. The only people politicizing and weaponizing our intelligence community are in the Trump administration.
The US government security clearances of at least 37 current and former national security officials have been revoked by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, according to a memo obtained by CNN. https://cnn.it/4mz1oaX
Don’t be fooled: the only impediment to peace is Putin. Even on the day of Trump’s summit with European leaders, including President Zelenskyy, Russia killed 14 more civilians.
The US must continue to stand with our partners and with the people of Ukraine. www.cbsnews.com/news/russia-...
On this day, 105 years ago, the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified, granting women the right to vote and moving us closer to a fairer future.
Let’s celebrate all those who advocated relentlessly for women’s suffrage and continue the fight for equality.
Both can be true: Trump wants to distract us from his broken promises, and he is willing to do dangerous things, like this, in order to do so. www.npr.org/2025/08/18/n...
Over the arc of the more than 40 years that I knew Mike Castle – first as a volunteer on his campaign, then working together as County Executive and Congressman, and even running against each other – he provided his knowledge and expertise to help me along my own way.
Why is Trump focusing on an awards show instead of bringing down costs for working Americans?
90 years ago today, Social Security became law, giving countless Americans a dignified retirement. We must push back on the admin’s attempts to privatize it. I’m a proud cosponsor of the Keep Billionaires Out of Social Security Act, because Social Security isn’t theirs—it’s yours.
We're nearly a week into Trump's tariffs – and a week into higher prices, tighter budgets, and more families struggling to get by.
Everyday Americans shouldn’t pay the bill for his reckless tariff war.
Kash Patel told us there’d be “no politicization” or “retributive actions” at the FBI.
Now, the FBI is targeting Texas Democrats who didn’t commit crimes and firing senior officials who worked on January 6 cases.
Did the FBI director lie to the Senate?
And another thing that ticks me off—Trump promised to release the Epstein list on Day 1. Half a year in, he’s delivered nothing but excuses. I wonder why?
mRNA vaccines saved countless lives during the COVID pandemic, and they'll save millions more – if we let them.
America deserves public health leaders who want to put us at the forefront of 21st century medicine instead of the 19th century. www.npr.org/sections/sho...
Trump could have cancelled tariffs on groceries, clothing, back-to-school supplies – any one of a number of things that would have reduced costs for American families.
Instead, he chose gold.
Here’s what really gets me—Trump said that IVF would be covered by health insurance. Another promise made, promise broken.
The concerns over selling cutting-edge chips to China have never been economic – they’re about our national security. Trump isn't just surrendering our AI advantage to Beijing, he’s raising taxes on US companies to try and paper over the massive hole he punched in the debt this summer.
Slashing $1.1 billion from public broadcasting won't just hurt television shows like Sesame Street and PBS NewsHour. Trump’s cuts will hit rural areas the hardest, where they’re often the only trusted news source, critical during storms, outages, and emergencies. www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...
Crime in DC is at record lows. If Trump is really worried about crime in the capital, then why was one of his first acts as president to pardon hundreds of cop-beaters and violent criminals who participated in the January 6 riot in Washington?
