"When selectively presented intelligence is used to revive unsupported claims of widespread fraud and is followed by threats of fines, withheld funding, and even prison for election officials, ... we’re talking about political pressure on the people entrusted with administering our democracy."

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” The Constitution settled this long ago. No president gets to decide who is and isn't an American.

Excited to join & support the No ICE in the Cup watch party at Grand Hope Park this evening in Los Angeles as Mexico faces South Korea. Soccer has always been about community and culture. The World Cup should bring people together, not divide them. Looking forward to cheering on El Tri! ⚽🇲🇽

As world leaders gather at the G7, we’re debating whether national security leadership should be delayed to gain leverage on an election bill. The world isn’t waiting for us to get our act together. Why are we?

As someone who has worked on national security vetting, this makes no sense. Omar Artan was vetted, approved, and issued a visa. Then he arrived in the U.S. and was suddenly deemed a national security threat. So what changed? The public deserves answers.

Trump has spent years distrusting the intelligence community. Now he's put Bill Pulte, a housing finance executive with no intelligence background, in charge of it as Acting Director of National Intelligence. Loyalty over expertise. America is less safe for it.
