They will cause pain to many. I've always tried to help folks in need with donations, helping to clear teacher "wish lists", and committing small acts of kindness for those who could use one. I am far from wealthy, but the people who need help most will need even more.

Trumpโ€™s bid to steal a DC public park and turn it into an elitist golf course has been blocked. When many institutions kowtow to the dictator, federal district courts are holding the line.

The caucus also accused the Trump administration of a broad cover-up, designed to shield the president from blowback as it tried to roll out the release of the Epstein files to the general public.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Anyone else deeply ashamed of our country for allowing a convicted felon, pathological liar, serial abuser of women, and traitor to seize power? Ready to fight back? Vote against all Republicans.

Encouraging sign that Democrats will play hardball if they win the midterms.

NEWS --> Dems are planning novel ways to wield power of the purse against Trump's corrupt prosecutions of critics like Ilhan Omar if they win House. Reps Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin tell me a range of aggressive tactics will be deployed. Details in my new piece: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

The people of Serbia celebrating the defeat of the dictator who held full authoritarian control of their country for nearly 14 years. This is what democracy looks like.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. โ€œDigital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.โ€ This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flรกvio Bolsonaro.
