Republicans are super-worried if kids are called "he" or "she"--but not if they are called "dead by an assault rifle." And if your child asks to use different pronouns at school than at home, it is because they are afraid of you and know that the school will do what you will not: protect them.

Some sacrifices are too profound for words. On 9/11, the men and women of the FDNY showed us what extraordinary courage looks like — answering the call when our city needed them most.

I don't ask my minister to teach my child algebra 2, organic chemistry, or world history. Why would I ask my public school teacher to teach religion, especially only one?

“He threw 300 BILLION dollars at them to get them to agree to go back to the way things were before his stupid war.” “Only—get this—they now can make money off of the Strait of Hormuz. And know all they have to do is block traffic and Donald will throw more money at them.” “Art of the f-ing Deal!”

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

Not enough people are talking about this. A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump. He walked away with the trademark, the licensing rights, and a deal that lets him profit off every piece of merchandise sold there. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I'm helping to lead a group of Senate Democrats who are planning to force a vote - every single week the Senate is in session - to end the war in Iran. We have that right under the Senate rules, and we are going to keep putting Republicans on record supporting this insane war.

The vicious cycle of monopolization: 1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market. 2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers. 3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations. 4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement. 5) Repeat.

BREAKING: Pennsylvania is now driving out November SNAP benefits. After we won in court yesterday, we moved quickly to start getting benefits loaded on EBT cards and out the door — and we're working to get every Pennsylvanian currently waiting for federal food assistance benefits what they're owed.
