My statement on today’s passage of the “PEACE Act”, which would erode our civil liberties.
"Pete Hegseth is definitely the guy who replies all on an email chain."

President Trump talks to the Easter Bunny at the White House
Are you in the Signal group chat as well?
National security ain’t supposed to be a family affair, but apparently Pete Hegseth missed that memo.
Leaking classified military plans—TWICE—the second time on a personal Signal chat to friends and family? That man has no business being Defense Secretary. He’s a threat, not a leader.
The kids’ facial expressions says it all. 🤡

REP. @vincentdixiefortn.bsky.social : “Pope Francis championed for migrants, the poor, the marginalized — we do a lot of things in this arena in the name of Christianity, it’s time for us to step up and do what’s right, and do God’s Will.” #RIP
