The Justice Department. Ukraine. ICE. Air Force One. Election integrity. Five stories. One theme: who government serves.👇

This is a must read. “At a time when so much of our politics rewards outrage and division, they chose something different. They chose conversation. They chose community. And more importantly, they chose courage.” #justiceinmotion

🚨Deadline: THIS Monday, 11:59 p.m. ET. Trump White House OMB Director Russ Vought's latest proposal could quietly change who decides what scientific research gets funded. Scientists are sounding the alarm. Your public comment to OMB could make a difference. @seanbruna.bsky.social More here!👇

I heard a bus full of judges was traveling across America so I got in my car and chased it to Ohio. What I witnessed was extraordinary. Inspired by Poland’s March of a Thousand Robes, retired judges walked through Columbus to stand up for the rule of law. Carlo 🐾 was a fan favorite. Watch:👇

DC/MD/VA friends: can’t wait to see some of you tonight at the Watch Party! Come join us at Piece Out Del Ray. So excited for the Mexico vs England World Cup match! Wear your colors! Let’s go! 🇲🇽⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

America turns 250. So naturally, we’re talking about mass arrests, birthright citizenship, a DHS cyber breach, presidential self-enrichment, Kennedy Center governance, and why Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have understood patriotism better than the fireworks planners.

Happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸 The Republic doesn’t belong to whoever’s in office. It belongs to all of us.

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” The Constitution settled this long ago. No president gets to decide who is and isn't an American.

Looking at the Bellagio fountains and thinking… Maybe Trump should’ve asked the people who built these for advice before renovating the Reflecting Pool.

Medical advice. Immigration. The Bible in public schools. China's reach beyond its borders. And one reason to believe the future is still brighter than the headlines. New Saturday Covfefe is live. ☕️

Trump is heading to Mount Rushmore for America 250. Please. Leave. The mountain. Alone.

El Tri!!! Viva Mexico!!!! ⚽️🇲🇽

Breaking MS NOW: Firings are underway at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. This month, Trump said he planned to ask acting DNI Bill Pulte to "execute the immediate and needed downsizing of the office, reverting staff to their home agencies." www.ms.now/news/directo...

Happy Summer!☀️ Happy Father’s Day! America is turning 250… Only 18% of Americans are proud of how democracy is working. Just another week in 2026. New Covfefe is live. ☕️🇺🇸

Excited to join & support the No ICE in the Cup watch party at Grand Hope Park this evening in Los Angeles as Mexico faces South Korea. Soccer has always been about community and culture. The World Cup should bring people together, not divide them. Looking forward to cheering on El Tri! ⚽🇲🇽

As world leaders gather at the G7, we’re debating whether national security leadership should be delayed to gain leverage on an election bill. The world isn’t waiting for us to get our act together. Why are we?

The World Cup kicked off. The Kennedy Center got its name back. A voter registration group got raided by the FBI. And flamingos launched a protest movement against Jared Kushner. Somehow, that's not even the whole story. New Saturday Covfefe is live. ☕️🦩

Gorgeous sky over D.C. tonight after the storm. The universe knows removing Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center is the right thing to do.

As someone who has worked on national security vetting, this makes no sense. Omar Artan was vetted, approved, and issued a visa. Then he arrived in the U.S. and was suddenly deemed a national security threat. So what changed? The public deserves answers.

The World Cup starts Thursday. I have two jerseys—green and blue. I have uncles who taught me what it means to love something that might break your heart. And I have a lot of feelings about what it means to welcome the world right now. Oh, and I invited the mariachis!🇲🇽⚽🇺🇸

One of Ken Paxton’s former defense attorneys just endorsed James Talarico. That should tell Texans everything they need to know.

Aliens. Death lists. Election deniers. Intelligence purges. And some fashionable soccer loving donkeys.

Scott Pelley’s firing from 60 Minutes is a big loss for journalism. Truth-tellers are never convenient.

Trump has spent years distrusting the intelligence community. Now he's put Bill Pulte, a housing finance executive with no intelligence background, in charge of it as Acting Director of National Intelligence. Loyalty over expertise. America is less safe for it.

The Kennedy Center stays Kennedy.
DOJ wants information on anonymous social media critics.
A $7.5 million government paint job is somehow a priority.
And Bruce Springsteen reminds us who built America. Just another week in 2026. New Saturday Covfefe is live. ☕️🇺🇸

A federal judge delivered a blunt reminder this week: The Kennedy Center is named after John F. Kennedy. Not Donald Trump.

E. Jean Carroll beat Donald Trump in court. Twice. Now Trump’s Justice Department is opening a criminal inquiry into the woman who accused him. This is what retribution looks like: punish critics, intimidate accusers, and weaponize government power against perceived enemies.

Ken Paxton’s win in Texas sends a dangerous message: in today’s Republican Party, scandal & ethical collapse are no longer disqualifying. Stay loyal to Trump & feed the grievance machine, and you survive. But when decay & rot already sit comfortably in the Oval Office-why expect a different outcome?

Sacred land seized for politics. Quiet election power grabs. Public health systems hollowed out. Legal immigration rewritten in real time. And Democrats still trying to understand why voters stopped listening. The systems holding this country together are being quietly reshaped in real time...

Next era loading… 👀

They can cancel shows. They can pressure networks. They can try to silence critics. But they can’t silence the truth. Thank you, Stephen Colbert. "I don’t know why you say goodbye, I say hello!"

Trump sued the IRS. His DOJ settled it. Buried in the deal: the IRS can never audit Trump, his kids, or the Trump Org again. A pending audit could’ve cost him $100M+. He paid $750 in taxes in 2016. $750 in 2017. $0 in 2020. You likely paid more than the president. This is corruption as governance.

American citizens detained. Your calls recorded. Toxic water unleashed. Election deniers normalized. Totally stable country behavior.

Last Friday, I went w/ my best friend to an ICE detention facility to say goodbye to her husband. After 11 months detained, he was deported to a country he hadn’t lived in for 20 years. A 4-year-old said goodbye to his father. One of many families living this nightmare. Cruelty disguised as policy.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, grandmothers, stepmoms, chosen moms, and mother figures who help guide us through life with strength and love.❤️

This week felt more unstable. Virginia voters overruled. ICE oversight disappearing. (I visited an ICE detention facility yesterday.) Extremists adapting. Reality online feeling increasingly distorted. Plus a small moment in Rahway, NJ I won’t forget.

My statement on Virginia Supreme Court’s redistricting referendum decision:

Imagine being a national security advisor in the room when the conversation shifts toward using the U.S. military against American protesters. For Congressional Candidate @oliviatroye.com that wasn’t a dystopian screenplay—it was her daily reality - @malcolmnance.bsky.social

Great evening in D.C. supporting @emilyslist.bsky.social and the women leading some of the most important fights in this country to protect our rights and defend our democracy. Proud to stand with them. 💪🇺🇸

I’m proud to support No ICE in the Cup. I grew up loving soccer. Some of my favorite memories were made on the field and in the stands. The World Cup should bring people together, not leave immigrant families living in fear. Everyone deserves to experience the game safely. NoICEintheCup.us ⚽️

Kash Patel suing journalists and reportedly targeting reporting he does not like should concern everyone. A free press is not the enemy. It is part of accountability. Journalists should be able to do their jobs without fear of retaliation or intimidation by the FBI.

The Battle of Puebla. Against the odds, they won. That spirit lives in us. Viva México. 🇲🇽 Happy Cinco de Mayo.

National security and counterterrorism expert and VA-7 Congressional candidate @oliviatroye.com is in THE BACK ROOM discussing her campaign and the midterms, Trump, Iran, Hegseth, Gabbard, Miller, DHS, and more podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/o...

May 1 is Decision Day for high school seniors. It’s been great to meet young people across the district in Virginia. I’m rooting for the next generation. I know you will do great things. As a first-generation college student, I remember how excited I was to take that next step and attend UPenn.

Justice Kagan warned: the Voting Rights Act is now “all but a dead letter.” States can dilute minority voting power by calling it “partisanship.” This is happening in plain sight. Vote like your rights depend on it. They do.

There’s no real case here against James Comey and Trump knows it. This isn’t about winning. It’s about the spectacle, the cameras, the legal bills, and toll on Comey and his family. If this is the playbook, anyone can be targeted. This is retribution. Comey won’t be the last.

Trump demands ABC fire Kimmel on Monday. FCC orders Disney's early license renewals on Tuesday. That's not a coincidence. That's retaliation. The 1st Amendment only works if the gov't can't threaten your license for content they don't like. Every broadcaster in America is watching. That's the point.

The lawfare against me by Trump’s team continues. After losing 2x in fed court (dismissed with prejudice), Richard Grenell is appealing. We know Kash Patel helped fund it—he’s using the same lawyers to sue The Atlantic. Timing? Right after I launched my Democratic congressional campaign in Virginia.
