Real profiles in courage these Republicans scared of the long shadow of Epstein. Johnson shuts House down early for recess rather than face an Epstein vote. nytimes.com/live/2025/07/2…
Congrats to @RKSlaughterFTC for winning her case against the administration for unlawful termination from her post as an FTC Commissioner. Thank you Becca. Not all heroes wear capes.
Excited to be heading into the office this am! Top of the to-do list: calling a vote on restoring the Click to Cancel Rule. It’s time the FTC gets back to protecting consumers from real abuses like subscription traps that cost Americans countless hours and millions of dollars.
We cannot unleash Maryland’s potential without supporting our young men and boys.
Yes @ilyseh! Being open about ordinary life experiences shows honesty and relatability - qualities we desperately need in politics. I trust voters, not operatives, to distinguish between authentic human experience and actual character flaws.
THIS! This is the problem. @ZachWahls transparency about perfectly normal experiences growing up should be treated as a superpower not a danger.
Zach Wahls stood up to establishment Dems in the state house --- and they think him looking at playboy as a 19 year old will hurt him. Absolute fools.

Stop being puritanical nerds.
(1) Cowardly Democratic operatives thinking “19 year old boy posted about porn in a Reddit AMA” is a scandal or disqualifying — instead of authenticity in action & (ahem) a way to connect with young men by being a normal person — is part of our party’s problem.
Aside from being an obnoxious display of a narcissist, this ridiculous military parade has made traffic on the way to work unbearable. People live here for chrissakes.
Tweet me your thoughts on Dems and the young male vote and I will read some @CNN @cnni when @ilyseh joins me to discuss politico.com/news/2025/06/0…
There is not a single congressional district in the U.S. where more than 15% of voters support cuts to Medicaid.
This is how strange these times are; I have finally found something that Charlie Kirk and I agree upon. This bill will not make Jewish people safer, and it will further undermine the rule of law in a country founded on freedom of speech and freedom to protest. Come on people.
In another episode of Trump's Patronage and Punishment chronicles, yesterday he pardoned a politican in NV who's a loyal supporter for using money allocated to erect a memorial to a fallen police officer to get plastic surgery for herself. cbsnews.com/news/trump-par…
Wow, righties are really mad at Jordan Peterson for suggesting that there's a Woke Right like there's a Woke Left.
I love DC bc my kid’s elementary school gets to play the Italian anti fascist anthem Bella Caio on the Millennium stage at the Kennedy Center that the petty tyrant took over. The daily defiance is exhilarating.
I'm rarely on Twitter anymore but since I am today, vote and volunteer for this guy in the Arizona special this year. He's an amazing leader and a stand up person who fights for those he represents.
BIG NEWS: I’m running for Congress in AZ-07! I’ve spent my life fighting for Southern Arizona—protecting our healthcare, lowering costs for families, standing up to extremists, and defending our democracy. Now, I’m taking that fight to Washington. Join us:…
