Talking about my struggles with being overweight still makes me uncomfortable, since weight can carry moral judgment in ways that other health challenges don't. But that fear stops too many struggling from getting treatment that could extend their lives.

Attacking reporters, particularly female reporters and now even one’s children, is a Trump tactic used to disguise is inability to answer a hard question. We deserve a leader with some maturity and respect for the role of the press to inform the public. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

I'm for Medicare For All. Susan Collins is not. Instead, she helped advance Trump's $990 billion in healthcare cuts just last year. That's why Big Pharma and Big Insurance are trying to buy her another six years in Washington. They will fail.

Trump: “The Winning Shot in the Bedminster Club Championship! Thank you very much to all of those who participated. I won with a 70, & am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I’m given very little time to practice, bc I’m focused on many other things. It’s called TALENT, and I have 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.

Senate Dems just announced a $40 million ground game investment across 10 battleground states. I’m pleasantly surprised. Instead of blowing it on expensive TV ads, they’re investing in field staff, new offices, volunteer programs, and outreach to Latino, Black, and Alaska Native voters. 1/2

Donald Trump, the president of the United States, just said we lost 200,000 people in Vietnam. This is profound stupidity, and one more indication of why he's an incompetent Commander in Chief.

Nothing sums up the effect of unbridled capitalism and unfettered mismanagement on the public's health and well being quite so well as an outbreak of GOP parasites.

If you ask people whether they support voter ID, most will say yes. In polling, as in all things, context matters. Voter ID laws also make voting harder for millions of citizens, and if you ask Americans if they want that, they tend to say no. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

democracydocket.comVoter ID tends to poll well. But that doesn’t mean voters really want itBy focusing on this issue ahead of the midterm elections, Trump and the GOP might be helping Democrats.

Jon Ossoff is so relentlessly on message that even his response to a question about his strong 2028 presidential polling turned into an attack on Mike Collins and his ties with a prominent neo-Nazi

Intentionally concealing the death of a U.S. senator to manipulate legislative business or the succession process could expose those involved to serious federal criminal charges. No one gets to hide a death for political gain.

Trump will lie about the 2020 election. Trump will lie about the 2026 election. But, if Trump claims powers he does not have, or tries to undermine free and fair election, we will sue and we will win. If you doubt me, take a look at my record in beating him and his allies in court.

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.
