On the one-year anniversary of the DCA crash, we remember the 67 lives lost, including six with ties to the Skating Club of Boston, and reaffirm our responsibility and commitment to learn from the tragedy and strengthen aviation safety.
Political violence has no place in our country. It’s unacceptable. But Donald Trump has given a permission slip to those who think violence and extremism are acceptable responses to disagreement. Just look at ICE. We need accountability now.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the memory of the 6 million Jews and millions of others murdered by the Nazi regime. “Never again” is a call to protect human rights, confront antisemitism, fascism and hatred, and continue to educate on the history of genocide.
The Doomsday Clock now stands at 85 seconds to midnight—the closest it has ever been. When the New START treaty expires next week, there will be nothing stopping a new nuclear arms race. Trump and Putin could agree today to stick with New START limits. We can turn back the clock.

Finally, after more than 800 days, the last hostage has come home. My heart goes out to the family of Ran Gvili, who died trying to stop Hamas' brutal attack. May his memory be a blessing.
Greg Bovino and his CBP thugs may be leaving Minneapolis but this doesn’t end here. ICE continues to terrorize our communities. From Maine to Minneapolis. It’s still no funding for DHS. ICE out of ALL our cities. Hold these officers to account.
I’ve been calling to stop DHS and ICE funding since Renee Good was murdered. Americans are watching in outrage while their neighbors are murdered on tv and cities get taken over. Senators have the power to do something about it. We need to stop funding DHS now.
BREAKING: Trump’s thugs just shot and killed a man in Minneapolis. Eyewitnesses are describing it as an execution. We cannot keep living like this and people can’t keep dying like this. Stop funding DHS. Impeach Kristi Noem. Hold these agents accountable.
Consumers deserve to know whether the chatbots they use are truly helping them — or quietly feeding them blurred advertising. I’m calling on AI companies to be transparent about their advertising plans and explain how they will build in safeguards. Privacy and safety cannot be an afterthought.
Thank you Rümeysa for this brave retelling of the horrors you experienced in ICE detention. The stories you shared in Louisiana have never left me. I’m asking everyone to take a moment and read about the pain being inflicted across our country: www.thecut.com/article/rume...
