When I visit Tougaloo College and see this, it always reminds me of my 50+ years of civil service to my community and people as a whole. I am Bennie G. Thompson because of the people in my community.

I’m proud to stand with the Congressional Black Caucus in advocating for Social Security. Social Security is not a handout. It’s an earned benefit that millions have paid into and rely on.

I asked FBI Operations Director Michael Glasheen a simple question: “Where in the United States does Antifa exist?” His reply: “We are building out the infrastructure right now.” It is clear that Antifa is not a formal, organized group with a defined structure or leadership. How can it be called a “top threat”?

The attack on our National Guard service members is an unspeakable tragedy. I condemn all targeted violence and political violence.

The same Republican legislatures that drew many Southern states’ district maps are now trying to redraw them after Louisiana v. Callais. The fight for fair representation is under attack at every level, and it’s clear Republicans don’t want Black Americans to have a voice. This ruling won’t stop me from taking this system head-on alongside my Congressional Black Caucus colleagues.

As former January 6 Committee Chair, I know what an attack on democracy looks like. If they'll to do this to a US Senator, they'd do it to any of us. Trump & Kristi Noem don’t want us to question what they do, they just want us to do what they say. We must hold them accountable

The Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais is a warning we cannot ignore. This ruling will shape redistricting battles across the South at the federal, state, and local levels. When we do not stand up, Black and Brown voters do not just lose a voice, we lose ground in housing, education, healthcare, economic opportunity, and civil rights. Let’s be clear. This fight over redistricting has never been about protecting your vote. It has always been about protecting their power. Getting involved in this fight matters because when you do not, you are surrendering.

Republicans are letting health care discounts expire, which could force millions of people off their insurance, raise costs for families, and limit women’s freedom to make their own health care decisions. The cost of groceries, lights, and water are up. Even holiday gifts cost more. Why would they want to add more to the plate? Democrats are ready to fix this while Republicans continue to play games.

Don't be misled by misinformation. The Social Security Fairness Act was spearheaded by Democratic leadership, not Donald Trump.

🚨 During Police Week, I ask—again—why Speaker Johnson and Congressional Republicans still refuse to hang a plaque honoring the Capitol Police officers who were beaten, maced, and brutalized on January 6th. They won’t even do the bare minimum.
