Americans’ approval of the Supreme Court just hit a record low — 61% disapprove in the latest Gallup poll. We need bold reform, including term limits, to restore faith in our nation's highest court. news.gallup.com/poll/713096/...

Supreme Court Job Approval Slumps to Record Low

The U.S. Supreme Court's 33% job approval rating is the lowest in Gallup's 26-year trend by a significant margin.

There are real costs of having a president focused on sore-loser election lies, corruption, and endless wars. Imagine if we a had president who woke up today and did everything in their power to lower prices — and partner with Canada to stop the plumes of smoke over our nation.

Politicians in robes. We need serious reforms to restore faith in our nation’s highest court, including term limits.

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah. Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence. Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

BREAKING: Republicans in the Texas House just bowed down to Trump and passed a bill creating five new likely GOP seats ahead of the 2026 midterms. Shame on them. They are to blame for the gerrymandering arms race that we will now see across the country.

Gov Morrisey’s plan to send the WV Guard to DC disrespects those who serve by using them as political pawns and hurts communities recovering from flooding who need their help. If he gives a damn about flood victims or the Guard, he should immediately call them back. www.reuters.com/world/us/wes...

West Virginia governor to deploy National Guard troops to US capital

West Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey is deploying 300 to 400 National Guard troops to the District of Columbia at the request of the Trump administration, the governor's office said in a statement on Saturday.

Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake. Now, he’s activating the DC Guard to distract from his incompetent mishandling of tariffs, health care, education and immigration — just to name a few blunders.

GOP Sen. Joni Ernst responds to voters saying that cutting Medicaid will kill them: “Well, we all are going to die.”

House Republicans just voted to give massive tax handouts to their billionaire donors like Elon Musk at the expense of working families. Their bill would kick millions of Americans off of Medicaid and nutrition programs like SNAP.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

It is remarkable how much damage Trump and his enablers have done in less than three months...to our economy, the rule of law, our standing in the world, and so much more. Voters will remember — and history will remember — who continues to stand with him.
