Today was beyond incredible. I am so honored and excited to being serving the people of @Pittsburgh alongside the most amazing man, mentor, and boss, Mayor Ed Gainey. Let’s go get it!

Lt. Gov. @AustinDavisPA: Those closest to the pain should be closest to the power. timesleader.com/opinion/171043…
Ummm so let me get this straight: Republicans have ground Congress to a halt and are considering adjourning the entire House for 6 weeks to avoid releasing the info they have on Epstein? What is going on here?
NEWS - House Rules Committee isn’t returning AT ALL tonight and likely not AT ALL THIS week amid Epstein + other issues, per sources Scalise confirms to me it’s “not likely” Rules return - meaning House would leave without advancing immigration and several other bills
Republicans Grind Congress to Halt to Avoid Epstein Votes
For those not on Capitol Hill, this is a House GOP debacle. They are so scared of votes re: Epstein that they will punt most of this week's legislative schedule and start their summer break early.
I've heard 3 different people in Pittsburgh tell me that "breakfast burritos suck" and my heart just weeps for everyone who's never had a good breakfast burrito. If you've never had a good one, you've really missed out on the best way to start a Sunday
Never order a breakfast burrito in new england
Once again asking you all to follow the incredible @RepSummerLee for all of the reasons stated below and also bc she's great at making TikToks about the climate crisis lol
.@RepSummerLee is one of the best members of Congress and deserves WAY more attention! Her voting record is impeccable, she's so kind, she's deeply rooted in her district as is her staff, and she's funneled billions of $ for climate, health, and infrastructure to her district.
Thank you for bringing the #BetterInAUnion bus tour to Pittsburgh President @lizshuler!
AFL-CIO President @LizShuler: “Whether you’re in a union or not yet in a union—we are here… Come join us on this bus tour. Come be part of this movement. Find out why it’s better in a union!”
What Congressional Republicans in Washington voted for will make life even harder for blue-collar and working-class people – all to give tax breaks to their billionaire friends. I believe that those who are closest to the pain should be closest to the power. We’re seeing right…
We’re standing up for working families and fighting back against cuts to good jobs, health and safety protections and essential services. It is always #BetterInAUnion!
Today we welcomed @AFLCIO President @lizshuler and the Better in a Union bus tour to Pittsburgh to rally with our @steelworkers brothers and sisters and members from across our labor movement.
Every campaign manager trying to decide their ad buy plan:
i wish, i wish, with all my heart, to find $30,000 on the ground today
Update on the Roebling 15 and #FreeAyman. More specifics coming soon. Folks brutalized by cops are facing felonies. We’re asking you to donate and share the legal fund: gofundme.com/f/urgent-defen… #AbolishICE and free all oppressed peoples.
Has anyone considered inventing a 2025 that doesn’t punch you in the face
Why has this fucking Coldplay affair news cycle lasted literal days when literally nothing else actually important does
Kamala Harris' niece, @meena, just posted this on Instagram and I couldn’t agree more 😭
happy anniversary everyone
Enjoying a Wolf Spritzer at El Presidente restaurant here in DC.
NEPA hates a crook.
This stock trading issue is not going away for him and, per people I have talked to, makes this the seat Republicans are most anxious about losing, after the Bacon seat in NE.
If you followed me, it’s impossible not to know how I felt about this. A year later, you’ll never convince me that this decision didn’t save our party from total annihilation. When we autopsy 2024 we need to be brutally honest about what went wrong so it doesn’t happen again.
One year ago today, Joe Biden dropped out of the election.
Damn Stacy Garrity’s official online store is a reminder how far-right/ultra-MAGA she really is Weird stuff #PAGOV
