🚨 TRUMP ISN’T JUST BREAKING THE RULES — HE’S TRYING TO RIG THE SYSTEM ITSELF. Our rights. Our freedoms. Our institutions. Our democracy. This is The American Heist — power being seized in plain sight. The way to stop it is at the ballot box. WATCH. SHARE. VOTE. 🇺🇸🗳️ #Vote

My husband and I voted early today in Orlando — BLUE all the way! 🗳️💙 It feels great to have our votes cast and our voices heard. If early voting is available where you live, take advantage of it if you can — avoid the Election Day lines and get it done! 🇺🇸 #VoteEarly #Vote

No Kings: Vote Early events are happening in communities nationwide this Saturday. Show up, bring a neighbor, make your plan to vote early, and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Find one near you at nokings.org. #VoteEarlyOnNoKings

20 DAYS TO GO. Trump and his MAGA allies are counting on us to get tired, tune out, and stay home. Let’s disappoint the hell out of them. Turn the anger into votes. Turn the momentum into a Democratic landslide. SHOW UP. FIGHT BACK. VOTE BLUE. #BlueWaveIn20Days 🌊

With Trump’s latest betrayal of Ukraine, MAGA Republicans who continue to defend Trump when he licks Putin’s balls can all go fuck themselves. Trump is a feckless, pathetic traitor — and he has the blood of innocent Ukrainian children on his hands.

Thanks to Trump and the Republicans, healthcare premiums jumped after enhanced ACA subsidies expired and Medicaid eligibility checks resumed. Even more painful program changes will be phased in later. Rural hospitals are cutting services. Americans are feeling it now. #RepublicanHealthcareCrisis

My latest podcast travels to California in 1978, where five friends drove to a college basketball game, began the trip home... yet never arrived. Their car was abandoned on a remote mountain road. Months later, four of them were found dead under strange circumstances—the fifth would never be found.

Trump keeps getting richer while families can’t afford gas, groceries, housing or healthcare. Republicans have done nothing to lower prices. None of them give a damn about everyday Americans — they just care about keeping their wealthy donors happy. #StopTrumpCorruption

In just 50 days, we have a chance to reject Trump’s chaos, corruption, and extremism — and elect leaders who will actually fight for working families, protect our freedoms, and defend democracy. Let’s make it count. Organize, register, donate, and vote. 💙 #BlueWaveIn50Days

My family’s pet cockatiel, Nibbles, just passed away. She adopted us back in 2001, when she appeared in our driveway, hungry and scared. She hopped onto my extended arm, and has been a member of our family ever since. Nibbles was at least 30 years old — an extraordinarily long life for a cockatiel!

⛽️ Over the past two weeks, gas prices in my Orlando neighborhood rose by 33–35 cents per gallon, or about 9%. Diesel fuel went up 75–80 cents, or about 14%. This gas station has the CHEAPEST prices I’ve found around here. Other stations have prices 5 cents or more higher! 🤬

"He said that I’m disrespecting Jesus. You want to know what actually disrespects Jesus? Kicking the sick off their healthcare to give tax cuts to billionaires. Bombing innocent schoolchildren in Iran, and sending our brave men and women off to die in another forever war." PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE!

James Talarico calls out Ken Paxton for repeatedly refusing to debate him. Paxton is so corrupt — and such a coward! 👀 PLEASE WATCH AND SHARE.

🔥 President Obama will be a tremendous asset on the campaign trail for Democrats this midterm election cycle. The former president excites crowds, motivates voters, raises money, and helps win close races. Watch the clip.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 👀

🎙️ My podcast today travels to Adelaide, Australia, where, on a summer day in 1966, three young siblings left home for what should have been an ordinary trip to the beach—and simply vanished. Their disappearance shocked an entire nation. Over six decades later, the Beaumont children remain missing. 🔎

Trump and his family have raked in billions off the presidency — crypto deals, a $400M Qatari jet, tax immunity, and Pentagon contracts steered to his sons. You get higher grocery, gas, and healthcare bills. And Republicans in Congress don’t care. That’s the #CostOfCorruption.

Ken Paxton has spent more than a decade running from debates. He said he’d debate James Talarico. Then he missed deadline after deadline. Today Talarico accepted CNN’s invitation. Paxton still hasn’t. A coward who won’t stand on a stage and answer questions isn’t ready to represent Texas.

Hakeem Jeffries said it plainly: Trump is focused on enriching himself, his family, his friends, and his big donors—everyday Americans pay the price. Trump called the affordability crisis a “hoax,” doesn’t give a damn about your financial situation, and “loves” inflation. #TrumpsCorruptionCostsUS

My new podcast travels to Oakville, Washington in 1994, the site of one of the strangest events ever reported. During a rain shower, something bizarre fell from the sky. Soon, people and animals reportedly fell ill, scientists collected samples, and a mystery was born that remains unexplained today.

While everyday Americans skip meals and ration their meds, a new class of American oligarchs is getting obscenely richer every single day. They write the rules. You pay the price. #HoldTheCrooksAccountable

Trump and the Republicans didn’t just break norms—they turned the government into a protection racket for themselves and their wealthy donors. While families struggle, the crooks cash in, cover up, and walk free. Enough. It’s time to hold the crooks accountable. #HoldTheCrooksAccountable

Millions of Americans are facing skyrocketing premiums and the real risk of losing coverage because Republicans let the enhanced ACA tax credits expire. Healthcare should never be a luxury. Restore these credits. Families can’t afford another year of this. #RestoreACATaxCredits

🚨BREAKING: Democrat Brandon Dukes has won the Pennsylvania House District 12 special election, flipping a seat Republicans had held since the 1990s.

My podcast today travels to Fort Worth, Texas, just a couple of days before Christmas in 1974. Three girls left home for what should have been an ordinary afternoon of holiday shopping. They never returned. More than fifty years later, no one knows what became of them. On ALL podcast platforms. 🎙️🔎

Jack the Ripper terrorized London in 1888, murdering five women. Texarkana had the Phantom Killer in 1946— terrorizing the city & murdering five people. The Ripper became part of worldwide folklore, while Texarkana’s Phantom is far less well known. Maybe London fog sells better than Texas dirt. 🤷‍♂️

The FBI should not have “back-burnered” a 2005 tip from Playboy founder Hugh Hefner that Jeffrey Epstein had trafficked and sexually abused Playmate Audra Christiansen, a former federal agent says.

The countdown is on. 80 days to flip the House and Senate, make America affordable, protect healthcare, and send a message. No more excuses. No more sitting this out. Organize. Vote. Win. #BlueWaveIn80Days

Check out my latest podcast: In 1946, over ten terrifying weeks in Texarkana, a shadowy gunman attacked eight people—killing five and leaving three others fighting for their lives. The crimes became known as the Texarkana Moonlight Murders. The killer? The Phantom Killer. On ALL pod platforms. 🎧

Republicans just voted to slash food assistance for millions of American families while protecting tax breaks for the ultra-rich. Kids going hungry isn’t a budget issue. It’s a choice. #RepublicansStarveUS

Struggling American families are skipping meals while Republicans protect billionaire tax cuts and corporate price-gouging. The cost of groceries is way too high — and it’s NOT an accident. #RepublicansStarveUS

We’re inside of 100 days and House Democrats are clear: We’re fighting for an affordable America. Trump’s economy is a complete & total failure. Hardworking people playing by the rules can barely survive. Democrats want lower prices—for groceries, gas, housing and healthcare. That’s the fight! 💪

Under the Trump regime, we’ve already seen multiple months of actual job LOSSES—just like his first term. Under Joe Biden? 48 straight months without a SINGLE month of job losses. Trump and his Republican enablers in Congress have totally wrecked the economy! #TrumpsJobsCrisis

🚨 Damn. Mike Collins just fled his own press conference the moment reporters asked about his close ties to a white nationalist, neo-Nazi propagandist. He had no answers. Just an abrupt exit. Georgia deserves better than this.

🚨Republicans just cut Medicare — again! Seniors will pay the price. Families will feel it. And with less than 100 days until the midterms, voters are going to remember exactly who did this. Political malpractice. Republicans just don’t give a damn. #RepublicansCutHealthcare

Ken Paxton hasn’t debated in over a decade. I wonder why. Maybe it’s because he’d have to explain how his corruption crisis became Texas’ affordability crisis. James Talarico is ready. Paxton is still hiding. Debate him. Or keep running.

The momentum is real. Voters are done with the chaos, the cruelty, the corruption, and the grift. In 100 days, we’re flipping the House, holding the line, and sending a message that can’t be ignored. Organize. Donate. Vote early. Talk to everyone you know. #BlueWaveIn100Days

On Sunday, House Democrats are launching 100 Days of Action. Focused on one thing: an affordable America. • Lower prices for groceries, gas and housing • Affordable healthcare for ALL Americans • Holding the crooks who’ve been robbing working people blind accountable This is the fight. Let’s go!

🚨House Republicans will be voting at 4pm ET today to choose reckless wars over daycare, Medicaid, and Medicare. America’s priorities should be our people — not endless wars. RT if you agree: #HealthcareNotWarfare Watch this powerful takedown! 👇

🚨The SAVE Act is nothing but a Republican voter suppression scheme dressed up as “election integrity.” It’s #PayToVote — forcing barriers that hit working families, students, seniors & minorities hardest. ☎️ Call your reps NOW at (202) 224-3121 to kill this bill. Demand NO paywall! #PayToVoteSaveAct

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has the constitutional authority to temporarily appoint someone to fill Mitch McConnell’s seat. If GOP lawmakers want to challenge that, they can do so. This will be the first big test to see whether Beshear really is presidential material. I hope he passes the test.

James Talarico just challenged Ken Paxton to THREE televised debates. Paxton — who hasn’t appeared on a debate stage in over a decade — is almost certainly too scared to accept. Puppet politicians answer to their billionaire donors, not the people of Texas. Time to debate or keep hiding, Ken.

My new podcast delves into the case of six experienced hikers who died within minutes of one another on a remote mountain in Siberia. Only one survived to tell the story. Was it simply hypothermia—or something far more mysterious? 🏔️ This is one of the strangest wilderness mysteries ever recorded. 🎧

🚨 House Republicans led by MAGA Mike Johnson are once again plotting to slash your healthcare to fund an unpopular war — this time using reconciliation. Call the Capitol Switchboard TODAY at (202) 224-3121. Tell your rep to oppose this reckless GOP effort! #FundHealthcareNotWars

Susan Collins voted to give ICE and CBP $70 billion. She owns the consequences of that vote.

She should have spent today laughing, playing, and feeling safe in her daddy’s arms. Instead, this three-year-old watched her father die. No child should ever have to carry a memory like that. #ICEOutOfControl #AbolishICE

As Trump’s 2nd term began to unfold, Ami Fields-Meyer and Julia Angwin interviewed dissidents on 5 continents to learn what everyday Americans can do to defend our democracy. I’m reading their new book, On Courage, and it’s absolutely riveting. Highly recommend. www.harpercollins.com/products/on-...

Ceasefire over? Again? Trump’s ego-driven Iran fiasco is back on. No exit strategy, just chaos and higher gas prices. ⛽️ This was always #TrumpsWarOfChoice — reckless, unnecessary, and disastrous for America.

Hakeem Jeffries just nailed it: Gas prices exploded because of Trump’s reckless war of choice. From $2.98 before Trump launched it → now $3.93–$4.20+. Working families are feeling the pain at the pump while Trump fails to deliver. This is #TrumpsWarOfChoice.

Republicans couldn’t get the votes for their voter suppression bill — so now they’re trying to ram the SAVE Act into law through budget reconciliation. Forcing Americans to pay for passports and birth certificates just to vote? That isn’t election security. That’s a poll tax! #SAVEActIsPayToVote
