AOC: I believe in guaranteed single-payer healthcare. We need to drive toward an America where every single person in this country can see a doctor without fear of having to choose between their insulin and their rent. I believe in an America where we are actively transitioning ourselves out of dependency on Russian and Middle Eastern oil, and the volatility of that, so our energy prices can be lower. I think we need to be talking about universal gun safety and very common-sense measures—background checks, making sure that the people most likely to kill people with assault weapons don’t get those weapons in their hands, and holding people responsible who put those weapons in their hands. We’ve got a lot of work to do, and I think that for me as a progressive, having a very clear vision for that means making sure we don’t get into foreign wars that are just endless entanglements, that we’re actually fighting for everyday people, and for the love of God, getting big money out of politics.

With deep sorrow, we say farewell to one of the final sentinels of the Tuskegee Airmen. George E. Hardy, who once danced across the skies of Europe in his Mustang has taken his final flight at the age of 100. Leaving behind a legacy forged in courage, resilience, and unwavering dignity. It began in a quiet room in Philadelphia. A 16-year-old boy hunched over his homework as the radio crackled with the news of Pearl Harbor. In that instant, the world fractured, and George’s childhood evaporated. He didn't wait for history to call; he went to meet it. Denied entry because of the color of his skin, he didn't retreat. He leaned into the wind. He joined the U.S. Army Air Forces, arriving at Tuskegee not just to learn the mechanics of flight, but to dismantle the mechanics of prejudice. By 19, George was a "Red Tail," a guardian of the clouds. While the world below was segregated, the flak in the European theater was indifferent. He flew 21 combat missions over Nazi-occupied territory, a teenager in a cockpit proving that valor has no pedigree. Most men would have seen enough of war. George was not most men. - World War II: 21 combat missions in the P-51 Mustang. - Korea: 45 combat missions, braving the dawn of the jet age. - Vietnam: 70 combat missions, a veteran hand guiding a new generation. For nearly thirty years, he wore the uniform of a country that didn't always love him back, yet he protected it with a devotion that shames the very idea of hate. When he finally climbed out of the cockpit, he didn't stop serving. As a Lieutenant Colonel, he helped architect the military’s first global communication systems. He spent his sunset years ensuring that those who followed him would never be out of reach, never be truly alone in the dark. "He rose above the clouds so we could finally see the light." Today, we don't just salute a pilot. We salute a man who endured the sting of Jim Crow to earn the silver wings of a hero. He was the quiet defiance in the face of "no," the steady hand in the cockpit, and the humble heart in the room. The "Red Tails" are thinning now, their formation heading into the eternal sunset. But as George E. Hardy crosses the ultimate horizon, he leaves behind a legacy etched not in ink, but in the very air we breathe. Rest well, Colonel. The watch is ours. The sky is yours.

In preparation for the midterm elections, Donald Trump's staged assassination attempts will be moving to a bi-weekly schedule May-October. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Who else misses the boring, no-drama days of @JoeBiden? No chaos. No circus. No daily embarrassment. Just quiet competence from a president who actually knew how to do the job.

If you were horrified last night watching our elected leaders run and scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, becomes a part of the solution and only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

On the National Mall, 20,000 teddy bears represent 20,000 Ukrainian children abducted by Russia — a reminder that we must stand with Ukraine, hold Putin accountable, help reunite families, and bring every child home. 🇺🇦 🇺🇸

This week, the Trump administration: …prosecuted people for daring to infiltrate & expose the KKK. …promoted a Pentagon official who discussed wearing a KKK hood. …and dropped charges against white supremacists who attacked the Capitol. Interesting pattern.

Trump fell asleep again during a live televised meeting. If Joe Biden had done that, the media would have treated it like a national emergency and run wall-to-wall panic coverage for a week. But when Trump does it, they look the other way because the clown show keeps their ratings up and their pockets full. The hypocrisy is disgraceful. The media failed the country, and they know it.

ICE has violated almost 100 court orders. Let me say that another way. 100 times ICE was caught brazenly ignoring the law. 100 times a court told them to immediately stop. And 100 times they ignored the order. That's an out of control agency that shouldn't get another dime.

I don’t know what this world would be like without him right now. I like to think that another Ukrainian would’ve stepped into the breach, but the fact is we need authentic leaders so bad right now. And he’s always stood tall on principle. God bless him.
