🚨‼️ Breaking News in Epstein Case‼️ 🚨
Comer has agreed Todd Blanche must appear in @OversightDems . With explosive reporting from @nytimes on the White House coverup and multiple Situation Room meetings — this is looking more like a Watergate-style coverup every day.
Meanwhile we’ve got Bill Gates in front of Committee today answering why rich and powerful men like himself continued to hang out with Epstein even after he was convicted of sexual crimes. Regardless of party, power, or wealth—we are following every lead!

.@LAGovJeffLandry and lawmakers have cut K-12 education funding already. For 3 years, they provided schools with $198m for teacher/staff stipends they didn't provide this year. Now, they might move around $168m to cover those stipends. But it's still a cut. #lalege
Once again, you’re wrong Julie. The Governor has said MULTIPLE times, there will be NO CUTS to school funding. The budget is NOT being cut—it’s staying in education and the schools.

Our kids are dying. And they laugh.
During a debate on requiring safe storage of guns, a senior House Republican clapped and laughed at their inaction on gun safety.
This is not normal. This should never be normal.

One of my favorite Election Day traditions is dropping off donuts and coffee to the folks who make our democracy work: our precinct workers.
Just landed from DC, made a quick stop at @krispykreme , and now I’m headed to the polls.
South Carolina, polls close at 7 PM. If you haven’t voted yet, there’s still time. Make your voice heard.
Find your polling place and see your ballot at SCVotes.org or IWillVote.com.
Every vote matters. Every voice matters.

Trump threatened to have me hanged over a 90-second video I made. I'm a sitting United States Senator and spent decades serving this country, and it didn't matter. Keeping your head down will not keep you safe. Staying quiet will not keep you safe.

nope. Scott Doyle, a Republican, created the vote center system adopted by Los Angeles County in Larimer County, Colorado in 2003. and universal vote-by-mail was administered and supported by election officials from both parties long before California adopted it.

True, Trump should not have asserted, without evidence, that there was election tampering in L.A. But. Come. On. Democrats created this system -- allowing for the maximum number of late and even questionable voters to vote -- because they wanted to secure their lock on power. If Soboroff really wanted to inform his viewers, he would provide them with the full picture, and he would at least acknowledge that the way in which votes are counted in California greatly undermines faith in our elections.

In case you forgot what it looks like when a real president gets the love at a game.
You know, when the crowd actually wants the president there.

For those claiming fraud because Spencer Pratt did worse as the later ballots were counted, this chart is of the registered Dem share advantage over registered GOPs by each day of ballot returns.

Bill Pulte has shown that he will go into Americans' personal records to weaponize the government against people. I have a fundamental problem with someone like that being the Director of National Intelligence, and it should send a shiver down the spine of every American.

Trump should show up here at the L.A. County ballot processing center because he’d learn within five minutes this is democracy in action, not some conspiracy.

I had the chance to visit with Beau in Indianapolis last night. He’s a great example of a next generation Midwestern leader, and I could feel the energy for him from @INDems.
Indiana is in play in 2026!
Today, I’m honored and humbled to be the Democratic nominee for Indiana Secretary of State.
Every Hoosier who believes in honest government has a place in this campaign.
We can all agree that corruption has no place in Indiana. Together, we can build a better politics here in Indiana, one rooted in accountability and integrity.
I would like to thank Blythe Potter for stepping up to run for office, and I welcome her supporters to join our effort to bring change to our state.
I’m grateful to each and every one of the delegates who participated in our convention today, and I’m looking forward to the work ahead. Please join me at BeauBayh.com.

Victor Marx, frontrunner for the GOP nod for CO Gov, makes astonishing claims about his accomplishments. He’s either had one of the most extraordinary lives in human history or he’s a liar and a fraud.
When I asked how voters should decide, he joked that his dog would bite me.

Data centers are asking just too much for too little in return.
I'm pausing the release of any new data center tax incentives in Illinois — and I'm calling on the General Assembly to act in veto session to make sure data centers are paying their fair share.

.@jamestalarico: I've had a lot of interviews with national media. No one's ever asked me about the cost of housing. No one's asked me about the cost of prescription drugs. The only thing the media wants to ask me about are trans athletes.
The only minority destroying this country is the billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. Undocumented people are 1% of the population. We are all focused on the wrong 1%.
Trans people aren't taking away our healthcare. Undocumented people aren't defunding our schools. It's the billionaires and their puppet politicians

Ken Paxton is throwing everything he has at us.
He’s called me a radical leftist. He’s called me a fake Christian. He’s even called me a vegan!
I’m an 8th generation Texan — I've been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment.

“Michigan is America.” - @CurtisHertelJr
The road to the White House runs through Michigan, and that’s why we’re working for Michigan to be an early state in the 2028 Democratic presidential primary.
