Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

Superb reflection on an ongoing crisis. Donate, vote, organize!

This one hits hard.

I keep watching ”Resist Dance.” So beautifully poignant! www.instagram.com/reel/DU2S2xE...

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal. Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

🚨 Breaking news in Epstein Case 🚨 The New Mexico Legislature has passed HR1 to convene a Truth Commission and investigate Epstein’s crimes in NM, including at Zorro Ranch—led by State Reps Andrea Romero and Marianna Anaya. Full explainer here: youtu.be/DnOTfR_msPw?...

Spectacular.

A judge ruled that groups representing residents of Louisiana’s Cancer Alley can proceed with their landmark lawsuit seeking a pause on toxic industrial plants in two majority‑Black districts

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

"Donald Trump is not the disease of our politics, he’s just the worst symptom. The disease is the system that allows big corporations to buy and sell politicians in ways that leave them rigging the system against us."

What’s happening with Project 2029? Is it under way?

Stop disenfranchisement of millions of Amercans by stopping the SAVE act! substack.com/home/post/p-...

OMG.

Such courage! If you haven’t seen it, watch the full 20 min testimony given by Marimar Martinez at a Congressional hearing youtu.be/bkRJUwaofss?...

Your yacht will never find out anything damning about your business.

NC friends, we need an overwhelming response here: www.ncsbe.gov/about-electi... What other states are trying to require proof of citizenship under the guise of “voter list maintenance”?

When an insurance company is deciding whether to pay for your medical treatment, it generates a file, which should contain all records associated with your case, including documents explaining why the claim was denied. You have a right to see this file. (Published May 2023)

Okay, Congress. GO!

Maybe better late than never? Now that there are great models of courage and resistance out there, university leaders can follow this playbook and still get lots of credit for helping turn the tide!

Wow -- incredible!!!

When the president was calling all Somali immigrants "garbage" who "come from hell" and "contribute nothing" to America and therefore needed to go "back where they came from" did you ask him to "stop the rhetoric," Tom?

Pro tip for any Hill journos, the Speaker can approve 24hr protection for Members who are under heightened threat. Omar used to have this, but Mike Johnson took it away. You should ask him about that

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

Beautiful interview of St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her.

NEW: In a court hearing for a TRO against the feds in Minneapolis, the plaintiffs just said one of their exhibits contains a recording of a federal agent saying "Well, this person is gonna have a hard time traveling from now on" after taking a photo of an ICE observer's license plate. 1/

Today marks a major moment for child health: the AAP has released its updated 2026 childhood and adolescent immunization schedule. Updated annually to reflect the latest scientific evidence, this year’s schedule is formally endorsed by 12 leading medical and healthcare organizations. bit.ly/4r5KbaQ

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know. This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening. The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Precisely.

The president who pardons a meth dealer wants us to believe he is stealing Venezuela from Venezuelans because he is so against dealing drugs, not because he's greedy to put oil money in a private Qatar bank.

How is Trump pardoning a republican rep's meth dealer son not a major story at every media outlet right now? Given the pearl clutching over the pardon of Hunter Biden, has the GOP and corporate media suddenly started caring about addiction? Or is there just a double standard? (Rhetorical)

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

This is awesome!

In light of what happened to Renee Good, I thought it important to reiterate my grandmother's advice.

This is brilliant. Did you create it, @adamkinzinger.substack.com ?

New euphemism for "bottomless corruption and naked abuses of power" just dropped

May 2026 surprise you in the kindest ways. On we go, friends and kind strangers.

Insane but true fact: making US roads as safe as Canadian, Australian, or European roads would save more lives than eliminating murder from the US.

I too am obsessed with Merlin. It has added such a lovely new dimension to my life, especially early in the morning when it’s just me, a cup of joe, and the birds. @birdsoftheworld.bsky.social

It will be interesting to see if students who pay their own way at colleges and universities such as San Francisco State end up leading the resistance to AI-powered pseudo-education.

Not sure I understand why the Trump administration cares about Christians in Nigeria and not Christians in Ukraine

Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

Official data is in today, and US solar continues to grow rapidly, with generation up 21% compared to last year!

Many of us have had elderly relatives with unhealthy social media habits, but none of them have the nuclear codes

The NCDP family mourns the loss of Gov. Jim Hunt, a champion of our mission. He showed everyone what it means to be a Democrat in the South. Our hearts are with the Hunt family. We will celebrate the life and service of Gov. Jim Hunt by carrying forward his values and hope for a better tomorrow.

Came for the owl, stayed for the stump and snow. Drawn with Pentel .2 .3 .5, HB 2B 4B. So many layers. So much blender work. Half of this was adding graphite, the other half was taking it back. Learning what to leave alone and celebrating all the textures in nature. #bird #sciart #graphite
