Grateful for the chance to speak this weekend about the challenges facing NJ-07 and what it’s going to take to move forward. Thank you to Al Punto NY and Victor J. Solano for the space and the conversation.

51% of Americans live in childcare deserts—areas with little to no licensed care. I'm running to eliminate them by 2030 with federal construction grants and insurance reform. Check out my full childcare plan at www.varelaforcongress.com/childcare

There’s a difference between enforcement and overreach. Right now, we’re seeing resources expanded without clear priorities or accountability. We need to scale that back, reassess, and build a system that actually protects the people.

Freedom of speech is a cornerstone of our democracy. But Citizens United turned it into a loophole for the ultra-wealthy to buy influence and shape policy in their favor. When you follow the money behind attacks on LGBTQIA+ rights, affordable housing, and healthcare, it leads back to dark money.

The reason voters don't trust Congress is the result of a broken incentive structure that's gone unchallenged for decades. Term limits. No stock trading. No revolving door between Congress and lobbying. That's how we strengthen our democracy. That's how we get our country back on track.

Child care is one of the biggest barriers families are facing right now. If we want to support working people and grow our economy, making it more accessible isn’t optional—it’s essential. Read my full plan at varelaforcongress.com/childcare.

End Citizens United just named Tom Kean Jr. one of the most corrupt members of Congress. $679K in corporate PAC money. 141 stock trades worth $2.6M. All while claiming he opposes congressional stock trading. NJ-07 deserves better.

The presidential pardon has become a relic being weaponized to buy influence, protect allies, and embolden those who believe they're above the law. That's not what democracy looks like. I believe it's time for serious reform—because no one should be able to pardon their way out of accountability.

Since it's the last day of the quarter, I'm really supposed to be on the phones all day! However, I can’t help but to sneak some time in with Sienna. She’s asking if you can help us out before our deadline at midnight? secure.actblue.com/donate/bvig%...

When the Trump administration tells you they'll strengthen the economy by cutting the programs working families depend on, look closer at who actually benefits. We should increase funding to SNAP, infrastructure, R&D, and education because that's what actually builds a stronger economy.

Bon appétit! 😊 Quand l'appétit va, tout va. Quand l'appétit va, tout va. Vidons les futailles, à nous la ripaille. Quand l'appétit va, tout va.

Good news for the Ashburton Estate! Wandsworth Council has agreed to invest £60,000 in new signage for the Tildesley Road shops. I’ve seen the designs and they’ll make a real difference for local businesses. Great to see this support being delivered locally.

Eine Regierungserklärung von Ministerpräsident Markus Söder! Mal schauen, worum es gehen wird. Übrigens: Normalerweise kann man im Bayerischen Landtag bei Debatten Zwischenbemerkungen machen, also dem Redner nach dessen Rede noch eine Frage stellen. (1/2)

Das war los am 2. Juli 2025 im Bayerischen Landtag! 💪🌻 Herr Söder, wie will Ihre Regierung Kommunen unterstützen? Wie stärke Sie die Kitas? Wann verdienen Bürger*innen bei Windkraftanlagen in ihren Gemeinden endlich mit? Er hätte es erklären können. Hat er aber nicht. 🤷‍♂️ #bayern #grüne #söderisst

So, Lindsey Graham loves the direction we're in & Trump is his favorite Prez, because "We're killing the right people" and we're using more bombs than WWII AND people cheered No, this is not AI. This is America under #MAGA leadership BTW many of them are pleading with folks to vote for Cuomo

🔥🔥🔥In a matter of seconds TEN ICE agents grab a man after his court hearing. There is no warrant. There is no reason. There is no due process. Their names are on a list when they arrive at Jacob J Javits immigration court. Disappeared. Leaving only pain.

So, this is the new effect. No sound added yet or anything. The red is placeholder for the card art each one has. The sparkles only show when played by someone who is a subscriber. Streamloots deserves fun visuals. Line 1: Card name Line 2: Player name

Listen to this crowd. The Valkyries have done what they’ve been doing all season at home — which is to storm back in the 2nd half behind tough defense and streaky shotmaking.

🇺🇸 Rep. Jamie Raskin said it plainly: Trump does not care whether you can afford health care, rent, or groceries. He has no plan for working families. He is too busy settling political scores. President Trump has no plan for you.

Typowe zasięgi dronów światłowodowych to ponad 50 kilometrów. Przykładowo, drony wykorzystywane przez Siły Zbrojne Ukrainy są w stanie operować na dystansie około 41 km. Należy jednak pamiętać, że w przypadku bardziej zaawansowanych eksperymentów, teoretyczny zasięg mógłby sięgnąć nawet 1000 km.

WARREN: Do you agree that it's a conflict of interest for President Trump to trade stocks? BESSENT: President Trump is not sitting in the Oval Office engaging in a high-frequency trading strategy. Congress should get their house in order first W: You think it's okay for the president to do this?
