Trump and DeSantis played a real part in my husband’s death. He was 61. He wasn’t allowed to stay home like everyone else was; he had to go to work. I lost my husband of 30 years. Our 4 kids lost the father they adored, and it has broken their hearts in a way I can’t even put into words.

Trump is banking on his new "buzzword politics" enticing ill-educated Americans into sleepwalking into his planned fascist takeover. But he'll eventually run into the hard fact that there's zero—ZERO—Communist menace in America. And HE'S the one with corrupt deals with the CCP.

Deluzio: I introduced this Let Kids Play Act with Senator Murphy and some others to get private equity and vulture investors out of youth sports. Let’s start with the problem: they have turned youth sports into a luxury item. They’ve jacked up the cost for families.

It means something to finally be able to say this: the descendants of the Groveland Four — Walter Irvin, Charles Greenlee, Samuel Shepherd, and Ernest Thomas — have received $4 million in compensation for the unspeakable injustice their families carried for decades.

These four men were falsely accused of raping Norma Padget, then left to the mercy of Sheriff Willis McCall, who had none. Four million dollars will never be enough. Nothing could be. But the truth finally came out, right here in Lake County, Florida, and that matters. It matters deeply!

We have unlimited money for airstrikes on Iran, a golden White House ballroom, and a slush fund for insurrectionists. But groceries for hungry kids? Cancer research? National parks? Your health insurance? Sorry, we’re broke. This isn’t a budget crisis. It’s a values crisis and we lost!

Watching the Artemis II crew come home tonight has me emotional in the best way. Reid, Victor, Christina, Jeremy… thank you for going. Thank you for coming back. What a time to be alive. 🌕

Today, I'm introducing my wealth tax — and more than 50 members of Congress are joining me. It’s time for the government to start working for American families, not just the ultra-rich.

Sorry to burst the bubble but one day demonstrations are not getting it done. We need to. STOP THE COUNTRY, no more excuses if you feel uncomfortable then you are part of the problem. Stopping the country for over a week will get things rolling. Companies cannot fire everyone. Inject fear into them

Eric & Don Jr. are turning the Iran war into a family business. Trump starts war. Trump bans foreign drone rivals (DJI). Sons merge their golf co with Powerus to sell 10k drones/mo to the Pentagon. Their own bank brokers the deal. The ultimate conflict of interest.

Who remembers the bicentennial in 1976? That year felt like the whole country celebrated the Declaration of Independence. Music, parades, and pride were everywhere. As we approach America’s 250th, what are your memories of 1976? 🇺🇸

I spent my 50s speaking out against what Donald Trump represents and the damage I believed it would do to our country. I never imagined that in my 60s I would be facing something even more sobering: the need to stand up against the real and growing threat of fascism.

Use your voice. Whether that means posting in community groups online, waving a sign, calling your congressman, joining local demonstrations, or getting involved with schools or neighborhood issues, find what speaks to you and take action.

I’m not going to pretend I’m some deep connoisseur of Bad Bunny. Most of what I’ve heard has been in news clips…or leaking out from my youngest daughter’s bedroom. But here’s the honest truth: I don’t think I’ve ever been as excited to watch a Super Bowl halftime performer…as I am today.

The world needs to see the Trump/Epstein files! The MAGA and Q movements labeled Democrats a pedophile cabal. In reality, it is Republican evangelicals, politicians, and leaders who are being arrested at alarming rates for pedophilia and child pornography. It has all been projection.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Less than 1 percent of the Epstein files have been released. So what is buried in the other 99 percent? Apparently enough to justify six illegal invasions just to keep attention elsewhere!
