Full transparency: I took down a post of mine from earlier today about a new ICE contract that named the wrong company.
Despite issuing a correction in the thread, I know everyone may not have seen it. (1/5)

No country experiences more mass shootings than the U.S. Instead of working with Democrats to find common-sense solutions that keep our communities safe, this Administration wants to take us backwards.
It’s truly unbelievable—and will only result in more trauma and tragedy for far too many people.
Just days after the thwarted mass shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, the Administration announced dozens of regulatory changes that will severely weaken federal oversight of the firearms industry.
I joined more than 90 of my colleagues in demanding answers from the Administration.
Thankfully, Congressional Republicans grew a spine and rejected his ridiculous ask for $1 billion to fund his vanity ballroom project in the reconciliation bill.
This president is completely out of touch.
While families struggle to afford groceries, gas, and health care, Trump wants the American taxpayers to bankroll his gilded ballroom and an absurd Arch.
He's also turning the White House lawn into something straight out of "Idiocracy" to celebrate his birthday with a UFC match.
I mean, really?
Despite the rain, many on North Haven came out for the parade—to reflect on the immeasurable service and sacrifice that so many have given.
All of us hold within us this solemn legacy, and these ideals that have defined the American story.
It's our responsibility to carry them forward. Always.
FDR once said, “Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget in time that people have died to win them.”
Today, and every Memorial Day, let us remember and honor the brave men and women who fought for *all* of us. Who gave their lives for something greater than themselves.
The bad news: Speaker Johnson would’n’t allow a vote on a War Powers Resolution.
Why? Because we finally had the votes to pass it—so they kept us from voting and sent us home instead.
Make no mistake: We *WILL* get that bill passed.
Let’s just say I’m happy to be back home in Maine! (2/2)
What a shitshow in DC this week!
The good news: The Senate failed to pass a reconciliation bill that would’ve given MORE money to ICE—in defiance over Trump’s crazy demand that it include a $1.776 BILLION slush fund for his cronies (including J6 insurrectionists).
1776? Seriously? So gross. (1/2)
But I think there was a not-so-hidden message there: He might be drawing the curtains on *this* scene. But the play is far from over.
He'll be saying "Hello!" again before too long.
I can’t wait to see what he does next. Whatever it is, I know it’ll be special—and unforgettable. (5/5)
But I also felt a sense of anticipation, knowing whatever he does next (after he writes his LOTR movie!), it'll be something extraordinary.
As he closed with Paul McCartney and a star-studded array of friends, singing the Beatles’ “Hello Goodbye,” you could see the emotion in his face. (4/5)
As I watched the final episode of the Late Show, I couldn’t help but feel sad, and deeply enraged by how Trump essentially had him kicked off the air—all so CBS could complete its multi-billion-dollar merger.
(Colbert playing copyrighted songs so CBS would get sued was a nice touch!) (3/5)
Years ago, not long after I arrived in Congress, I was invited to appear on the Colbert Report, to talk about everything from knitting and lobstering to health care and gay rights.
It was the thrill of a lifetime. He couldn’t have been kinder or more graceful. And he was *so* so funny. (2/5)
🧵
Stephen Colbert is one of the most important and impactful political voices of our time. The wit, the humor, the brilliant insights—he's truly remarkable. A genius in the truest sense of the word.
But it’s his deep humanity, his ability to really connect with people, that I admire most. (1/5)
We’ll never be able to undo the trauma caused by this Administration. But we *can* create a saner, safer, more just, and more humane immigration laws—and close the loopholes this Administration is weaponizing against children and families.
It’s not just sound policy. It’s a moral imperative.
Since Trump took office, more than 6,200 children have been arrested by DHS.
Yesterday, advocates gathered on the Mall to shine a spotlight on the horrors of child detention—with an installation featuring hundreds of teddy bears and paper dolls, symbolizing the sheer scope and scale of the crisis.
Americans are being CRUSHED by soaring energy prices.
What are Republicans doing about it? Sabotaging clean energy that would help lower your bills—including using $2 BILLION in taxpayer money to stop offshore wind projects already in progress.
WHAT!?!?
Their priorities are COMPLETELY twisted.
Last year, the Admin illegally terminated thousands of grants at the NEA and NEH—agencies that help generate more than $1 TRILLION in economic activity.
These cuts don’t just silence voices and stymie creators. They erase the spaces where healing, connection, and community happen.
It’s just WRONG!
