A vote for Michele Tafoya is a vote for Donald Trump. A vote for me is a vote to hold Trump accountable for his chaos, cruelty, and corruption.

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

Some content back up BUT NO administrative access for No Kings organizers Does Meta not think we are paying attention? Pro-democracy state AG's, legislatures & regulators should be all over investigating this--& so should a new pro-democracy Congress THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS

Trump is ramping up his attacks on Lisa Cook in his latest attempt to undermine the independence of the Fed. Instead of focusing on lowering costs for American families, the president is once again showing that he’s more interested in political theater that threatens further economic uncertainty.

When Jon Husted voted against the release of the Epstein files, he chose to protect predators and enablers instead of fighting for survivors like Annie Farmer, Sharlene Rochard, and Wendy Pesante. I’m honored to be joined by these women in our fight to hold pedophiles and their enablers accountable.

Replying to @crampell.bsky.social

this is effectively a new $100k tax on international students, and will destroy the market. Which is killing the golden goose -- higher ed is one of the most successful exports the US produces

NEWS: After losing a major court fight, Trump and Todd Blanche’s DOJ is now begging a federal judge to kill Katie Phang’s Epstein files lawsuit altogether.

Michiganders tell me they feel like tech is being forced on them, that it no longer feels like a tool for them but it’s using them. We’re bombarded by AI, Flock cameras, Amazon drones, and billionaires pushing for massive data centers with no public input or protections. Who is it all for?

Russia is bombing museums, apartment buildings, hospitals, research facilities, schools, and parks. Ukraine is bombing military targets and refineries. Guess which one Trump has been complaining about?

⚠️ Trump’s DHS has withheld a document that could potentially detail how the administration plans to use armed federal agents at polling places for the midterms. Now, Democrats are demanding to see the document — and a federal judge is forcing DHS's hand: https://demdock.com/4rpXdl3

Mike Rogers was a leading advocate for boosting opioid prescriptions. He took over $1M from Big Pharma. He has always prioritized personal profit over the health and safety of Michiganders. That's not public safety. Watch our new ad, "Safe."

We don’t need to wait on the president to regulate AI. This is why we have different branches of government. Congress needs to bring experts to the table, work across the aisle, and move quickly on guardrails that protect America, the world, and humanity.

My Ojibwe name is Gizhiiwewidamookwe, which means ‘Speaks in a Loud and Clear Voice Woman.’ I’m running for U.S. Senate to be YOUR voice in Washington, not special interests or ballroom billionaires.

Trump has a rich crony who doesn’t like Bombardier, so he wants to put them out of business resulting in 3,000+ Americans losing their jobs in red states. Because he cares more about his billionaire friends than American workers. If only workers in those states realized it.

Political violence has no place in our democracy. I’m glad Dr. Amy Acton is safe and grateful for the swift response from law enforcement. We settle our differences at the ballot box, not through violence. These acts must never be tolerated or normalized.

An armed individual lunged at the Democratic nominee for Ohio governor, Amy Acton, at a fair in Canfield, injuring others, her campaign said. Acton is running against Republican Vivek Ramaswamy, in what has turned into a tight race in the red state.

This is Apple Maps. This is Apple bowing down to Donald Trump. This is what happens when oligarchs reveal themselves to be cowards in service to the almighty dollar over our democracy, sanity and the truth. Shame on Apple.

Today, I have a special report for you all. After speaking out about the conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, our inboxes were flooded with messages from individuals deployed overseas in difficult conditions. Below is an anonymous Q&A with one of those individuals. (Link in reply)

Army chief of staff, General Randy George, insisted on a probe into whether the Pentagon violated protocol with the flyby around Kid Rock’s house—and a No Kings protest. Days later, he was fired. trib.al/Q69eKLV

1. Mitch McConnell suffered a fall on June 14 and has not been in the Senate for two months. But he's continued to get paid his salary of 174K/year. Since he entered the Senate in 1985, McConnell has voted against creating or expanding medical leave — paid and unpaid — at least 23 times.

With everyone obsessing over a handful of DSA candidates, the broader trend that might be getting missed across the country is that lots of Dem primary voters seem to have decided it is time for a new generation of younger nominees in lots of places.

Going to take the site down for some quick maintenance/to interrupt this bot attack. Again, my biggest issue with AI is they incentivize these bad actors to steal our content and sell to LLMs for training. It costs more than I take home to only usually barely hold them off. Need legislation bad.

If you have enough money that you can blow $100,000,000 on avoiding taxes, you have enough money to pay $100,000,000 *on* taxes that will help your fellow citizens, you self-centered prick.

Libraries make us a harder target for authoritarianism. Equal access to info, ideas, and space that doesn’t require a purchase to belong. Also: using the library means money stays in your community instead of streaming out to Amazon. 📚 What’s checked out on your card right now?

AOC: Millennials are not punk kids anymore. We're grown adults with mortgages and kids, and that generation is starting to be decisive at the polls. And there is anger at being ignored, having our economic futures mortgaged by the generations that came before us and we're taking the reins
