If you believe Melania Trump negotiated a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, you're the reason "DO NOT EAT" labels are put on soap. If you believe Donald Trump is going to give you a check for $5,000 if Republicans win, you're the reason irons have "NEVER IRON CLOTHES WHILE BEING WORN" warnings.

When JFK ran, they said the country would never elect a Catholic president. When Obama ran, they said the country would never elect a Black president. Michiganders care a lot less about how I pray than what I pray for: peace, dignity, basic goodness for all of our kids.

Josh Hawley staffer and political operative Tommy: You are supposedly a Christian. Have you disavowed Christian domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh, The Aryan Nation, the KKK, Eric Robert Rudolph, and Dylann Roof, etc., etc., etc.? If not, what are YOUR allegiances?

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

One of the worst weeks for U.S.–Ukraine relations in recent memory. I'm outraged by the Trump administration's decisions and their potential consequences for Ukrainian lives. America should stand with democracies, not dictatorships.

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

Where are all the 2024 truckers who were rallying and driving around the country to support Donald Trump? Parked because they can’t afford fuel anymore? They got what they voted for.
