Trump keeps finding new ways to monetize the Presidency. His sons are tied to a Kazakhstan mining project now backed by up to $1.6 billion of your tax dollars. His family stands to profit big time. Why are Republicans letting this slide?

😒

Thank you to the firefighters who will be working this week for fireworks shows during a drought! Be careful, everyone.

"eliminating an interpretation that had persisted for 40 years"

The Trump-Vance Administration’s foolish and illegal war with Iran has been a nightmare for Americans' wallets—costing the average household about $1,000 over the last four months. www.cbsnews.com/news/iran-wa...

BREAKING: In a huge win for voters, a federal court granted the NAACP's request to halt the USPS implementation of Trump's executive order targeting mail voting. The order, which covers the entire nation, comes after a judge blocked the implementation in 23 blue states just last week.

Tomorrow!

Donald Trump has never cared about America or Americans.

I was humbled and heartened to speak about veterans' issues with so many American heroes in the room Tuesday night at American Legion Post 3 in Salem.

Trump appointed Bill Pulte – who doesn’t even have a security clearance – to serve as Acting DNI. Then he told him to “declassify whatever you want.” Time and time again, this administration shows a reckless disregard for our national security.

Tomorrow!

Trump’s all for using the presidency to enrich his family and allies. But landmark legislation that will help Americans out of this housing crisis – he calls a “big yawn.”

you know, when someone says something like "these are the things that need to be done to avert disaster" and your response is "you think democrats will do that?!?" all you're telling me is that you think politics is a spectator sport

"The decision is the latest in recent years to strike down provisions meant to restrict money in politics." Now even more ways for wealthy donors to get around campaign contribution limits...

The Supreme Court struck down Trump’s illegal attempt to end birthright citizenship. While it’s unlikely that this fight is over, today’s decision affirms our Constitution and celebrates our nation’s enduring ideal: “out of many, one.”

It sends a harmful message to transgender people that they are less deserving of dignity, belonging, and equal treatment under the law. Every child deserves the opportunity to participate, learn and thrive without being singled out or targeted for who they are.” (2/2) ###

I released the following statement after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled today that states can ban transgender women and girls from competing in women’s and girls’ sports: “Today’s decision is rooted in fear and exclusion, not fairness. (1/2)

Our representative Ben Cline is also against automatic Birthright Citizenship, by the way. He co-sponsored a bill in 2025 to change the law to require that the citizenship status of a child's parents be considered. Republicans are going to keep going after this American Constitutional right.

Virginia lawmakers approved Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s final budget amendments Monday, ending a months-long impasse less than 48 hours before the fiscal deadline. The fight centered heavily on tax incentives for data centers and energy costs. virginiamercury.com/2026/06/29/v...

If you want to ask what it's been like starting to get involved with local Democrats in Harrisonburg and Rockingham, VA, feel free! I'd be happy to tell you about my experience, and the choices I've made around my volunteering.

A judge ordered the DOJ to produce more unredacted Epstein files. After months of illegal redactions, Todd Blanche has a choice: end the cover-up or explain why the DOJ fought so hard to keep these records hidden. Is it to shield Trump from further embarrassment?

Here in Virginia, the state legislator and Governor struck a deal to raise 600M a year from energy usage fees for data centers. It was the big sticking point holding up the state budget, and hopefully a sign of things to come.

Happy Birthday, Virginia! www.instagram.com/reel/DaBj-ns...

The new racist double standard set up by Alito in the TPS ruling: if there’s any other motive in addition to the racism, the racism doesn’t count, but if the state wants to *prevent* discrimination against black people, that is racist and unconstitutional www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

"More than 900 Park Service projects that were expected to be funded this year never received the money, according to internal records."

For the first time in three years, inflation rose to 4%. What is Donald Trump focused on? His reflecting pool, his ballroom, and his arch. Remember, he doesn’t care about your financial situation.

Let's elect more people who lead with compassion and humanity

There seems to be a lot of confusion and delay in restoring voting rights to returning citizens. virginiamercury.com/2026/06/23/c...
