The Pentagon is the only place in America where you can fail 8 audits in a row, admit you’ll fail the next few & still get handed more money than you asked for. But let a family need help buying groceries and suddenly it’s a lecture about hard work, responsibility & bootstraps.

Somehow there's always money to expand the Pentagon and bankroll Israel's assault on Gaza. But when it comes to healthcare, education, or helping working people, we're told there's nothing left. America's priorities are failing people here and abroad.

Me: How much did the Department of Defense spend on snow crab and Alaskan king crab in 2018? DoD: I don’t have that amount Me: $2.3 million. Do you know how much Pgh spends each year on our unhoused folks? Only $1.2 million & they’re not being served gourmet seafood.

For those keeping track, Pam Bondi is about to be out of compliance with not one but two lawful subpoenas if she fails to show up for a sworn deposition next week. Even after being fired, she's still legally obligated to show up. So we'll see her soon.

We moved to subpoena Elon Musk—an unelected billionaire with massive conflicts of interest, a personal vendetta + access to our most sensitive financial systems. But Republicans blocked it. Who are they protecting? Because it sure isn’t the American people.

We have a healthcare system where Black patients are too often ignored, misdiagnosed, and denied care. Black doctors save lives. Culturally competent care saves lives. We can't afford to lose that just because conservatives are uncomfortable with diversity.

An educated public is harder to control. That’s why Republicans are attacking public education, dismantling the Dept. of Education, and abandoning the young people our future depends on. Dismantling education isn’t a byproduct of authoritarianism. It’s a prerequisite for it.

The U.S. is supporting Israel’s invasion, bombing, and mass displacement of the Lebanese people. Americans don't want their tax dollars funding another illegal and devastating war. I urge Congress to vote yes on Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib's War Powers Resolution to put an end to it.

History will judge us poorly for welcoming Netanyahu to Congress with open arms as he commits war crimes in Gaza.

Our democracy should belong to the people, not the highest bidder. As long as billionaires and corporate interests can spend unlimited money to influence our elections, working people will be forced to compete with wealth and power. It's time to abolish Super PACs.

I just introduced articles of impeachment against Pam Bondi. It's time we hold powerful people accountable when they break the law, no matter their title, their political party, or how rich they are. Thank you to the constitutional experts at Free Speech For People for drafting these with us.

Modern healthcare was built on the exploitation of Black bodies, from nonconsensual experiments on enslaved women to the theft of Henrietta Lacks’ cells. Now, Republicans call efforts to level the playing field “DEI” instead of addressing the inequities they helped create.

Public safety does not begin with policing. Public safety begins with investments in community. Until we're investing in a living wage, health care, after school programs & violence interrupters, we're not having a serious conversation about reducing crime. We’re dog whistling.
