If Donald Trump wants to come for your fundamental freedoms and undermine the values that built our Commonwealth and our country, he’ll have to go through me first. I’ve fought and won before to protect your fundamental freedoms. And that’s what I’ll continue to do.

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

BASH: But it peeled off. Why did that happen? BURGUM: It didn't peel off. There was vandalism. There was box cutters. There have been 7 arrests. BASH: There are photographs of people cutting a 350 foot gash in the reflecting pool? BURGUM: Dana, I'm not sure why you keep questioning it

Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.

incredible -- more than two hours into this morning's Fox & Friends, "fraud" has not been mentioned a single time and hosts haven't discussed Trump's big primetime speech at all. They have 787 million reasons to ignore it.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

actually a third thing: alito quite literally sounds like the unreconstructed opponents of the 14th amendment, right down to the notion that his citizenship is degraded by the fact that it is equal with that of someone from a lower station than him.

BREAKING: SCOTUS allowed the DOJ to file a brief in a lawsuit challenging Pennsylvania's "Date Instruction" requirement that prevents counties from counting undated or wrongly dated mail-in ballots. While the Court hasn't decided whether it will take the case, the move suggests it likely will.

Today, I introduced legislation to require that the minimum wage be a living wage. $25 an hour is what’s required for a full time worker to pay their bills, and we shouldn’t accept that full time work leaves people living in poverty.

Same office that covered up prosecutor's crimes in the Broadview Six case just covered up a police shooting. Feds said a teen beat up a cop before he's shot. They have clear video evidence showing the kid just squirmed away from him. They hid it from the judge. Judge just set a sanctions hearing.

The next batch of #SCOTUS rulings in cases argued this term is due at 10:00 ET today. There are 19 "merits" cases still to be decided, plus Trump's emergency application in Lisa Cook's case. We should get 3-6 of them today, but except on the *last* day (which isn't today), we have no idea which.

This is textbook violation of fiduciary duty on behalf of the Board — it's deliberately sabotaging your own institution to make a political point. Every Board member who voted for this is breaking their oath.

The Kennedy Center board has filed an emergency motion to stay at the DC Circuit and it is bonkity-bonkers. For the first time, they say they amended the bylaws to strip all funding from the center if it removes Trump's name. No Trump KC, no money. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
