Political power is meant to be used to fight for the people you serve, not to line your own pockets and sell out millions of our tax dollars for a quick check.

Adieu, Vučić.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

When Donald Trump refused to pay SNAP benefits during the shutdown, 750,000 Oregonians were put at risk. Oregon took him to court, and my team was ready to get benefits back to families the night the court ruled in our favor.

Economist Justin Wolfers explained our current dilemma: “Washington has discovered a brilliant financial strategy. Cut benefits for people who need them, cut taxes for people who don’t, and borrow the difference from people who aren’t old enough to vote.”

I can’t believe people fall for cons like Mike Rogers. I love being an Oregonian where our senators aren’t c*nts.

You can't afford a full tank of gas but Mike Rogers is chartering private planes and repairing his campaign's BMW. Summer's over so yachting turns to jetting I guess! Mike Rogers is just looking to go through the revolving door of politics to make another $14M.

Michigan Senate candidate Doctor Abdul El-Sayed meet with survivors Sharlene and Liz and toured the Trump and Epstein memorial reading room in Detroit Michigan with Senator Chris Murphy and Congressman Maxwell Frost.

EMBARRASSMENT?!?!? It’s fucking TREASON!!!

Senator Chris Van Hollen@vanhollen.senate.gov

Vladimir Putin is a war criminal. He's responsible for killing over 150,000 Ukrainians — including more than 15,000 civilians — and the murder of political opponents & dissidents.   Witkoff & Trump's bootlicking is an embarrassment to our country.
