I'm here on the National Mall with Bill Nye to say: We don't have kings here. Not now. Not ever.

🚨 Big news for Fair Elections in California! 🚨 Adam Schiff @schiff.senate.gov just endorsed #SB42 — our bill w/@senatorumberg.bsky.social‬ to legalize public funding of campaigns everywhere in CA. Big momentum to strengthen democracy! 📺 Watch his 1 minute message: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qg7i...

So, to get this straight: Putin met with Trump. Putin questioned the legitimacy of mail-in ballots. And now Trump wants to end mail-in voting. Once again, Trump is acting like Putin's puppet.

Ohio's champion and America's Senator. Let's go win this thing, @sherrodbrownoh.bsky.social.

Tell Donald Trump – you poke the bear, the bear fights back. Link in comments.

Dear Donald:

Kamala Harris has dedicated more than three decades of her life to serving the people of California. Today and always, grateful for her leadership.

Go get ‘em, Gov. America needs you.

The president won’t rule out a pardon for a convicted child sex trafficker and Epstein’s co-conspirator. Says he is allowed to do it. Nothing suspicious about that…

Inflation is again on the rise. Our global alliances are fraying. And the President's name is in the Epstein Files. So... does this make America Great Again?

Meat prices are soaring. The highest ever. Now Trump’s tariffs threaten to raise these costs for families even higher. That’s just … meatheaded. abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory...

Republic @teamsters.bsky.social's jobs are essential for the public and public health. The jobs can also be dangerous. They deserve a fair contract. And Republic can end these strikes by coming to the table with one. It’s time they did.

There he goes again. Playing the greatest hits. More baseless smears. He really wants you to be talking about anything other than his coverup of the Epstein files.

They pushed out or fired people working the disaster assistance lines. And Kristi Noem didn’t authorize FEMA’s deployment of Urban Search and Rescue teams until 72 hours after the flooding began. Such tragic malfeasance.

Happy Fourth, California!

When you celebrate the idea of opening new prisons, while closing down hospitals, something seems really off. How about holding off on the celebrations until you lower prices for families? Like you promised.

The Big Ugly Bill would be "the biggest job-killing bill in our country’s history." Those aren't my words. Those are the words of NABTU – representing America’s 3 million construction workers. I stand with labor. And I'm standing strong against this bill.

Today, Senate Republicans are voting to kick millions off their healthcare. Even then, it won’t fund all of their tax cuts for rich people. So they are also increasing the national debt by trillions, raising your energy costs, and more. A big ugly disaster.

The Supreme Court just took away a powerful tool for standing up to a lawless president. Overturning decades of precedent does not make the court, conservative. Far from it. Only dangerously partisan.

Don’t worry, you can totally trust him on *this* one. Just look at the Ukraine war that was ended on day one, the prices that went down, the tariffs that are definitely working, the 90 trade deals in 90 days…

Today I introduced a bill to crack down on Trump’s corrupt crypto scheme. No president — or their family — should use their office to get rich at the expense of the American people.

Two immediate problems: First, this shows the conflict of interest in Elon getting the contracts to begin with. Second, cancelling them underscores just how much Trump awards contracts based on the support he gets — not public safety or anything else in the public interest.

House Republicans are celebrating passage of a bill that will take health care away from 13 million Americans. Add trillions to the deficit and debt. Increase our reliance on foreign oil. And take food away from three million Americans.

Donald Trump is trying to destroy PBS, which is vital to keeping Americans informed and engaged. Just take it from Toby Ziegler:

Colorado, you’re going to get the chance to send this guy back to the Senate. A banjo-playing brewer. A champion for our public lands. My friend, @hickenlooper.bsky.social.

TLDR – the President is whining again. He’s focused on his personal, political grudges. Not on you. Not on fixing the economy. And he apparently doesn’t like me very much.

Americans have no idea if they're going to be able to retire, or have healthcare, or have a democracy. Thankfully, the White House is laser-focused on what matters most:

We just witnessed the full Trump cycle. 1) Make horrible policy decision. 2) Create lot of pain. 3) Falsely claim problem is solved. 4) Reverse course. 5) Leave things worse than before. Rinse. Repeat.

The President of the United States seems oddly focused on me. Shouldn't he be focused on the economy he's crashing?

Checking back on this…

$5 trillion in retirement accounts and investments erased and Donald Trump is... golfing. But those billionaire tax cuts? The Senate is working nights and weekends to make that happen for him. Gotta have priorities.

Tariffs like these raise prices and don't work. But if you skipped class the day we all learned that – here's a refresher:

Wisconsin – tomorrow you get to decide control of your State Supreme Court. Elon Musk has spent millions trying to buy the race. But no amount of $$ can stop your voice and your vote. Make a plan, and get out to support @crawfordforwi.bsky.social

No, Elon. I get nothing from USAID. My financial disclosure is public. But how about you, pal? How many billions have you made in government contracts? And when are you going to make your finances public? Well, how about it?

I think I figured out who Mike Waltz really intended to include in the chat...

Elon Musk and Donald Trump want to go after Social Security and Medicare. Don’t just take my word for it. Here’s Elon happily telling a host: “That’s the big one to eliminate.” Easy to say when you’re the world’s richest man. Not so easy when you’re a senior depending on both.

Donald Trump blames his shameful betrayal of Ukraine and sycophancy towards Putin on … me. Wrong, Donald. You have only yourself to blame for kowtowing to the Kremlin.

The Trump Administration’s answer to high egg prices is to point out that the chicken should have come first?

"No." - The Constitution

Trump’s 2017 billionaire tax cuts expire this year. Republicans need to find $4 trillion (yes, with a T) to maintain these massive breaks for the ultra-wealthy. How do they plan to pay for it? By going after Medicaid, USAID, and essential public services. I won't stand for it.

What Trump is doing with USAID is illegal. And the seizure of citizens’ private data by an unelected billionaire is a scandalous breach. These actions must be stopped. Until they are, I’m supporting Sen. Schatz's hold on all of Trump’s State Department nominees. (Thread 🧵)

The new administration is creating chaos and thriving on it. And the wealthy are cashing in. Billionaires in prominent positions while the President's executive orders kick families to the curb. We need to fight back. And fight back hard.

The 15+ million Californians on MediCal deserve a better answer than “I’ll check back on that.”

As the Senate heads to votes today — we certainly have no shortage of snow. Throwback to… a few years ago. My brother and me taking advantage of some fresh powder.

Every year, when the clock strikes midnight on New Year’s Eve, I say “rabbit, rabbit” to wish good luck for the coming year. Rabbit rabbit!

The former president likes to call me “pencil neck.” But as of two weeks ago, my response is: “that’s Senator pencil neck to you.” But whatever you call me – you can now hear from me firsthand here on Bluesky. Looking forward to the conversation!
