The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

This war is completely illegitimate: 60% of Americans disapprove of going to war with Venezuelaβ€”74% disapprove war without Congressional approval. Only 19% are in favor.

The people oppose it. Our representatives didn’t approve it. Trump should be removed for this unconstitutional war.

Black Friday sales that are only 20% off? In this economy?

The GOP’s coalition is holding on by a bare thread and when Trump is gone it will fall apart. Our task (and it’s not easy!) is to build a Democratic Party capable of picking up the pieces.

Families shouldn’t have to wonder how they’ll feed their kids because this administration would rather play politics than fully fund SNAP. Courts made clear the tools are there. They’re just choosing not to use them.

Hunger is not a bargaining chip. They should fully fund SNAP.

The FBI director is flying his girlfriend around on private government planes while FBI agents go without paychecks and families prepare to go hungry as SNAP benefits are being suspended

Canada was caught, red handed, putting up a fraudulent advertisement on Ronald Reagan’s Speech on Tariffs. The Reagan Foundation said that they, β€œcreated an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address,” and β€œdid not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter.” The sole purpose of this FRAUD was Canada’s hope that the United States Supreme Court will come to their β€œrescue” on Tariffs that they have used for years to hurt the United States. Now the United States is able to defend itself against high and overbearing Canadian Tariffs (and those from the rest of the World as well!). Ronald Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of National Security and the Economy, but Canada said he didn’t! Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD. Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The president announces an arbitrary price hike on Americans because his feelings are hurt by an ad accurately quoting Ronald Reagan’s criticism of tariffs

The president posted an AI video of him dropping poop on peaceful protesters. The president is a weird, weird guy.

Troops. In an American city. Using full force.

Your now-regular reminder that Republican members of Congress are letting this happen.

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

CDC advisory panel recommends restricting access to the MMRV vaccine
The panel said the vaccine, which includes protection against chickenpox, shouldn’t be given to children under age 4 because of a small risk for febrile seizures in younger kids.

Measles. Mumps. Rubella. This vaccine is safe, it’s effective, and it protects us all. RFK Jr. is leading our country into a dangerous, uncertain future. He must resign.

It is so exciting to see all the hard work that has gone into this medical school, and can’t wait to see it open. Today I was lucky enough to see the last beam raised into place. Go Bears! 🐻

SNAP is a lifeline to families that need it. Congressional Republicans cut SNAP benefits in the BBB. Thank goodness we live in a state where lawmakers in charge understand the importance of this program and work to protect it.

Coloradans were promised lower costs "on day one." Trump's Tariffs will hit Colorado families with $2,400 in higher costs this year. Tariffs are a tax that we all end up paying. www.nbcnews.com/business/con...
