At this point, it’s undeniable: Donald Trump is unfit to serve as President. I’m done pretending this is normal — and I’m done with leaders who won’t speak up. The question is simple: are you okay with this, or will you stand up and stop it? app.sosha.ai/s/9hwYlYbJ

Xavier Becerra's average donation is $59. He had 11,737 unique donors. 96% of donors gave less than $100. The most common occupation of Becerra's donors is teachers! I'm a teacher & gave him under $100 because I'm not a rockefeller—or a Steyer. Steyer had only 229 donors averaging over $575,800.

Virginians should not be paying more for groceries, gas, and basic necessities because of another costly overseas conflict. I’m leading legislation to pause the diesel tax and backing a gas tax pause to deliver immediate relief for working families.
Since the ceasefire agreement, Gaza has been effectively divided by a dangerous, ever expanding, and ambiguous “yellow line” that is controlled by the Israeli forces. Our teams have treated people who have been shot while collecting water or firewood, or approaching their homes, near the line ⬇️

Pourquoi Israël étend-il ses opérations dans le sud du Liban ? Selon l’analyste de CBS News Aaron MacLean, les terroristes du Hezbollah se sont retranchés le long de la frontière nord d’Israël, construisant des infrastructures militaires et lançant des attaques continues à la roquette et au drone.⬇️

Day 10: Chaos erupted tonight at Delaney Hall. Police kettled and arrested at least 46 protesters. Even the Press was instructed to move away. Clearly they did not want anyone to film them as they made arrests. Some fear that ICE could be waiting to grab folks after the police release them. WTF 🤬
