Please watch this video. It’s easy to forget that Trump isn’t just shredding our constitution—he’s destroying the innocence of youth and the very fabric of American life.
Our kids deserve to grow up in a country of compassion & opportunity, not violence & hatred.

I can’t even find the words to describe how disgusting these new documents are—by the way, just half of what federal law requires the Justice Department to release.
At best, our president is covering for his perverted rich billionaire friends who sexually abuse children. At worst, he’s one of them.
I’m so proud of the Massachusetts Women of Color Coalition, which is fighting to make our country more respectful & inclusive by providing leadership, mentorship, and workforce development to women & girls of color.
Receiving your 2026 Game Changer Award is a great honor.
Happy Lunar New Year!
Thank you to the Vietnamese Community of Worcester for hosting a fantastic celebration of community, tradition, and culture. Amid horrific attacks on our immigrant communities, it’s so important that we celebrate the wonderful & diverse cultures that make this country great.
Donald Trump’s first year back in office has been a complete and total failure. Because of his broken promises and betrayal of the very people he swore he would help, our country is weaker, poorer, sicker, and more divided than ever.
A reckoning is coming soon.
Grateful to start my day at the Mercy Centre in West Boylston, which serves adults with developmental disabilities by providing opportunities to learn & participate in enriching activities.
Thank you Tim & the Mercy Centre team for your inspiring work!
Alex Pretti was a patriot who fought for human rights and dedicated his life to serving others. If we all cared like Alex, America would be a better place. #LiveLikeAlex.
Last night, I joined the Massachusetts Nurses Association to honor Alex Pretti. He was the best of us—a selfless American citizen who dedicated his life to serving others. He died as he lived, helping protect a woman who had been pushed to the ground. May he rest in power.
Trump’s Big Ugly Bill has put 100,000 Massachusetts residents at imminent risk of losing food assistance. It’s a betrayal of their promise to put America first and a slap in the face to the families they swore they would fight for.
Community pantries are working overtime to keep folks fed—despite Trump’s Big Ugly Bill’s cuts to food assistance which are making hunger worse. Great to visit Lorraine’s Soup Kitchen with @neal.house.gov to see their work & talk about how we’re fighting to reverse these cuts & #EndHungerNow.
The price of ground beef just hit a record high. We haven’t had a chance to post about it yet because we’re too busy talking about how you’re executing American citizens in the streets.
Thank you to Lorraine’s Soup Kitchen & Pantry for the incredible work you do to help folks put food on the table and raise awareness about the hunger crisis in America. Catch our full remarks here if you missed them live:
Join me live at 12:15p today with @neal.house.gov at Lorraine’s Soup Kitchen & Pantry in Chicopee, the third stop of my statewide #EndHungerNow Tour.
Bullshit. Don’t let Stephen Miller save face like this.
HE slandered Alex Pretti.
HE told the whole administration to label Pretti a terrorist.
HIS protocols are the ones that led to the execution of an American citizen.
He can’t walk it back. He needs to go.
If top government officials can go on television and make up, out of thin air, vicious lies to justify the shooting of everyday citizens—lies that clearly contradict what our own eyes tell us—what is to stop them from doing much worse when nobody is watching?
Every video. Every eyewitness account and affidavit. Every piece of evidence produced directly refutes Kristie Noem’s outrageous claim that Alex Pretti sought to “inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement."
It doesn’t “echo” white supremacist messaging. It is white supremacist messaging.
America wants Democrats to show some backbone & defend people’s constitutional rights—Senate Democrats must hold the line & refuse to fund the murder of American citizens. Defund ICE & abolish this corrupt agency. There are much smarter ways to enforce our laws.
Bovino is not enough. Steven Miller & Secretary Noem are complicit in the murder of a patriotic American citizen, who they disgustingly slandered as an “assassin” and a “domestic terrorist.” Resign, get fired, or face impeachment. They both need to go. Now.
