After the San Diego mosque shooting, threats & hate toward mosques must be taken seriously. Calls for a āpig roast and BBQā at a mosque arenāt harmless, theyāre Islamophobic & dangerous. As a senator I have visited houses of worship of every faith. People should be free to worship without fear.

This is vile and dangerous. Itās not just Islamophobic rhetoric; itās a call to expel American citizens & target a specific faith community. We have seen where this kind of dehumanizing language leads before, and we cannot be silent now. America was founded on religious freedom, not hate.

Trump didnāt build wealth by creating anything. He built it by grifting and now heās trying to grift the American people. Republicans in Congress will continue to look the other way. Another reason we have to organize & fight back.

Traveling across the district, one thing is clear: Virginians are struggling to afford healthcare, keep a roof over their heads, and make ends meet. It's time for real Democrats who will stand up, fight back, and put PEOPLE over PROFIT! That's why I'm running.

Iran offered these ceasefire terms yesterday. Trump threatened genocide this morning, and Americans spent all day in fear of what our military might do, so he could look like he's in control. It was pure theater. This is insane, unstable behavior. He needs to be impeached.
