Let’s be clear: these are extrajudicial killings. “Kill them all” Hegseth needs to be held accountable.
What’s more, Trump promised the American people no new wars but is now manufacturing this conflict & lying about his motives.
This warmongering has got to stop.

16-year-old American Mohammed Ibrahim has been released after over 9 months in an Israeli prison without trial.
I was relieved to hear from his family today and to know that he’s safe and where he belongs — with his family.
For 162 years, we have answered President Lincoln's call to give thanks — even in turbulent times.
Today, as we face tests to our unity, to our democracy, and to our Constitution, let us be grateful for our freedom and, together, use it for good.
From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
My thoughts are with the two National Guardsmen who were shot in our nation's capital today, and with their families and loved ones. We are grateful for their service and sacrifice.
Violence should have no place in our country.
Across America, families are having to cut back on their Thanksgiving dinners because prices are simply too high.
When Trump & his White House try to lecture & gaslight us about how costs are coming down, do not fall for their con — believe your own eyes.
The Trump Admin's assault on working people continues.
They are now trying to restrict student loan assistance for many in critical professions, including nurses.
These Americans provide essential functions for all of us. This attack will make staffing shortages worse & harm everyone.
This has been a challenging year, but time & time again, Marylanders have stepped up to help neighbors in need.
That spirit shines through at Nourishing Bethesda and I am grateful for their work supporting families this holiday season and all year long.
Surprise, surprise, over a decade later, Republicans still say they hate the ACA, but STILL have no replacement for it.
While they squabble, the ticking time-bomb they left on healthcare costs will soon explode.
We must extend the ACA tax credits & continue the fight for UNIVERSAL healthcare.
Data centers are important for many reasons BUT consumers should NOT have to pay higher bills to facilitate the huge amounts of electricity they eat up.
The richest companies on the planet are building these centers and they should bear the costs — not you.
Senator Kelly & his fellow veterans are American patriots.
Their video simply reiterated the Uniform Code of Military Justice's requirement to only carry out LAWFUL orders.
Not surprising that Secretary Talk Show Host doesn't know that.
Israel has held 16-year-old American, Mohammed Ibrahim, without trial, for 9 months.
He has been denied contact with family & his health is deteriorating. He says he falsely confessed to throwing a rock after being beaten.
America needs to secure his release NOW.
$1 of every $13 poured into the 2024 elections came from the country's 100 richest people.
Trump is letting billionaires run the show and they want to further rig the system for themselves, against working people.
It time to End Citizens United. Pass campaign finance reform. Empower the PEOPLE.
Don't forget: President Trump relentlessly attacked @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social & did everything to stop his win.
It's funny how his tune changed when confronted with Mamdani’s actual focus on affordability — something Trump claims to care about.
Let this be a lesson: Always stand up to a bully.
We all want to see peace in Ukraine, most of all the Ukrainian people.
But blackmailing innocent Ukrainians to appease Putin doesn’t promote peace — it only enables Russia’s aggression.
It is repulsive that this is coming from an American president.
This is extremely dangerous.
From the attempts on his own life to the murders of Speaker Hortman & Charlie Kirk, this isn’t hard. You either condemn all of it or none of it.
I don’t want to hear a single word about political violence from Republicans until they condemn this language.
Today, Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social will visit the White House as he prepares to take office with a simple goal: making sure working people can afford to live where they work.
You may be shocked to find out his plan doesn’t include giant tax cuts for corporations & billionaires.
The U.S. has the leverage to help stop the RSF's atrocities in Sudan, RIGHT NOW. But to do that we have to use it.
Today, Republicans blocked my effort to pass legislation to suspend arms sales to the UAE until we can verify they are no longer arming the genocidal RSF. Shameful.
The Trump Admin will fire you for having a Pride flag on your desk but downplays & normalizes swastikas & nooses?
Over 400,000 Americans died fighting Nazism. Hundreds of thousands died fighting slavery & Jim Crow.
This is a slap in the face to every American who died to defeat bigoted ideologies.
Must be a total coincidence this announcement came the day after these guys were seen at Trump’s ritzy dinner party.
Trump doesn’t have this authority. States are filling the void left by the federal govt’s failure to create an accountability structure for AI companies.
Yesterday, President Trump tried to justify the murder of Jamal Khashoggi by saying "things happen."
Today, Senate Republicans blocked a resolution that condemned his murder.
The Republican party's refusal to stand up for a free & fair press endangers journalists worldwide.
