I'm so sorry for this devastating loss.

Totally spot on — 100 percent! 👍

I am in Barcelona today to help unite progressive parties from around the world in a defense of democracy and a war against corruption. A first of its kind event. Necessary to beat back the forces of fascism.

We live to fight another day! A victory tonight—as we killed a backroom deal Johnson and the WH cut to extend FISA authority for five more years. Dropped in the middle of the night.

We killed it on the Floor. But, it will be back. So we must keep fighting!

My friend @gwagner.com's take in @nature.com nicely complements points I made in my @livescience.com commentary "Our fossil fuel economy is a house of cards & Trump's war in Iran is about to topple it...need for a clean energy transition has never been clearer."

1/7. We Americans have a hard time seeing ourselves in the world, and so even when we want to criticize our fascist oligarchs we fail to see the international networks of which they are nodes.

7/7. It's worth dwelling on this point. It’s hard for Americans to process that their hard right politics is in large measure a Russian and Hungarian import — intellectually and also financially. We should take advantage of the defeat of Orbán to let this basic fact sink in.

More perfect union: BREAKING: The Senate just passed the legislation allowing the devastation of the Boundary Waters. The motion passed 50-49, and now goes to Donald Trump’s desk.

Republicans just handed the Boundary Waters to a foreign corporation.

For the GOP, it’s foreign billionaires first, America last.

I had a recent scary ER visit, and I came away realizing yet again that these physicians rock AND deserve whatever they're paid and more.

Seattle: there is a proposal to build five of these things in our city. Yes, really.

Over 8 billion reasons to ditch fossil fuels in one photo.

All of us must be civil rights activists at this moment.

Just like those who showed up, stood up, and spoke out today at the National Action Network’s 2026 Convention.

If we don’t have a fair election in November, we won’t have any more elections.

Well just leave this here, sweet pea

Look at those eyes; they've seen a lot.

Well done! I started to do that thing, and it got bigger, so I'm still on it.

Facts spoken by an ex-trumper...

A picture of Leonard Nimoy as Spock, and the text reads: CANON IS ONLY IMPORTANT TO CERTAIN PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO CLING TO THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF THE MINUTIAE, OPEN YOUR MIND! BE A 'STAR TREK' FAN AND OPEN YOUR MIND AND SAY, 'WHERE DOES STAR TREK WANT TO TAKE ME NOW'" - LEONARD NIMOY, REUTERS MAY 5, 2009

Simple truths.

Both of Marco Rubio’s parents were born in Cuba. Marco Rubio was born in Miami in 1971, before they became US citizens. He is a US citizen because he was born in the US under birthright citizenship. #Hypocrites

Well done! I know it's not easy right now to "replace" a doctor or dentist.

Since summer camps are too expensive, I've told the kids we'll put on our own camp. It's going to be an Arts, Music, and Language camp. We're going to learn French and piano, do lots of arts and crafts, read lots of books, and go to museums on Fridays
