I cannot emphasize this enough: everything we are seeing right now with voting rights, and especially the racist gerrymandering we’re seeing in the South, makes complete sense if you remember it was all in Project 2025. This was part of the plan. It’s white supremacy and too many ignored it.

I'm thrilled to share some news: Academy-Award winning actress and producer Octavia Spencer will join me and @TeamPelosi for our June 1 virtual event to help elect women and other Democrats running for office this year. See you there. bit.ly/ubjune1

Not long ago, reauthorizations of the Voting Rights Act were bipartisan votes that Democratic and Republican presidents signed without controversy. Now the right-wing Supreme Court majority has gutted the VRA, and GOP-led legislatures are erasing Black voters from the map. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-…

There is a specific kind of silence that only happens when it rains in the Jewish Ghetto of Venice, Italy. It feels like the stones are finally exhaling. For centuries, this small area held the weight of too much: too many people, too much decree, too much history. In Judaism, rain isn't just bad weather. It’s Gevurah (severity) meeting Chesed (kindness). It’s Heaven reaching down to wash away the dust of the struggle. Don’t let the downpour in your life drown you. Let it clear your path. If you’re in a storm right now, let it wash off what no longer serves you. You’re being prepped for a fresh start. 🌧️ 💛 @RebtznUnplugged

Visited the John McCain VFW Post in Chandler. I heard about VA staffing cuts, wait times, and cancer screenings. Not all veterans are getting the support they need and hearing their stories helps me do my job fighting for them. Thank you to everyone who came out.

If you are looking to help me in the fight for free and fair elections, I have one request -- subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content with everyone you know. Thanks. newsletters.democracydocket.com/anchor-metwitt…

Okay blew by .25 resistance, next up .2825 , something a brewing, sort of like when I mentioned Court action boiling and bam flood gates opened. Is this a false flag? not sure right now till we see a close of day. 3.2 million volume at 11:51am so far. Buys seem to be taking front and center over sells.

Don’t mess with American women.

@atrupar Hey @DrOz We're not under-babied. We're underpaid. We're underemployed. We're under-covered when it comes to healthcare. We're under attack by ICE and Republicans. We're under water on our student loans and mortgages and credit card debt. And we're over your gaslighting and lies

A short history of the great British improvement. They came for beef dripping. We got margarine, then seed oils, then a cardiac ward in every hospital. They came for butter. They told your grandmother it would kill her husband. The replacement was a tub of palm oil emulsified with rapeseed and a yellow dye, and her husband died of a heart attack in 1989 anyway. They came for full-fat milk. We got skimmed milk, a vitamin D deficiency epidemic in children, and a cereal aisle fortified to plug the gap. They came for mutton, the meat that fed every shepherd, miner, and mill worker for six hundred years. We got a chicken breast injected with water and a turkey twizzler. They came for the kipper. We got a Findus boil-in-the-bag, dyed orange, and a fish oil capsule sold at the chemist to make up for the omega-3 nobody is eating. They came for wool. We got polyester fleece, and microplastics in human placentas. Every one tested. Sixty-two out of sixty-two. They came for leather. We got synthetic shoes that delaminate in eighteen months, and a high street with no cobbler. They came for the cotton nappy. We got the disposable, and a landfill that will outlast the child wearing it. They came for the cast iron pan handed down three generations. We got Teflon, and a forever chemical now found in 98% of British rivers. They came for the wooden bowl your grandmother kneaded dough in. We got Tupperware, then BPA, then "BPA-free" plastic containing compounds we have not yet bothered to measure. Now they are coming for the cow herself. The replacement is a textured pea isolate, extruded in a factory in the American Midwest, packaged in plastic, and marketed as the ethical option by a company called Cargill, who happen to be the third-largest meat processor in the United States. Every traditional material we have been told to give up was working perfectly, for free, for centuries. Every industrial replacement has been worse for the body, worse for the land, and considerably better for the shareholders of the company that sold it. The pattern is not subtle, and the people running it are not embarrassed. Your great-grandmother is no longer here to call it. You are.

Anthropic just published a support page that should terrify anyone holding its shares on the secondary market. "Any sale or transfer of Anthropic stock, or any interest in Anthropic stock, that has not been approved by our Board of Directors is void and will not be recognized on our books and records." Void. Not restricted. Not pending review. Void. That means if you bought Anthropic shares through Forge, Hiive, or any other secondary platform without board approval, you are not a stockholder. You have no stockholder rights. Your transaction is invalid. It gets worse. Anthropic says it does not permit SPVs to hold its stock. Any transfer to an SPV is void. Investment funds claiming to offer indirect exposure are "most likely relying on mechanisms that attempt to circumvent our transfer restrictions." Forward contracts, tokenized securities, synthetic exposure products, all of it potentially worthless. Their advice to investors: "Assume that it is invalid." There is a multi-billion dollar secondary market in Anthropic shares right now. Platforms are pricing the stock at $265-$1,400+ per share based on a $380 billion valuation. Real people have put real money into these positions. And Anthropic just told them none of it counts. This is the purest possible illustration of counterparty risk. You can buy a share of a company and have the company itself declare your ownership void because you bought it through the wrong channel.

As Leon Tate speaks to the redistricting committee in Louisiana about her experiences and her lifelong work for rights for all, you would think the least State Senator Kleinpeter could do is pretend to pay attention. Just another example, they don't care. #DemsUnited

Epstein case revelations: U.S. Congresswoman Lauren Boebert stunned Newsmax after reviewing the unredacted Epstein documents: “It’s far darker than anyone could have imagined: emails about torture, constant references to ‘consumption,’ a place literally called the ‘Cannibal Restaurant,’ and code words like ‘jerky’ and ‘human meat’ being tossed around as if it were nothing.” Yes. She directly asked whether we are dealing with cannibalism. With literal human consumption. This is no longer some fringe theory. A sitting member of Congress is openly saying what no one else dares to say: these monsters not only abused and trafficked children — they may have eaten them as well. And the women? Ghislaine Maxwell, Rachel Chandler, and an entire network of female predators were deeply involved in delivering children into this nightmare machine. This isn’t “elite pedophilia.” This is satanic depravity. This is ritualized evil in suits and private jets. The documents are so horrifying, she warns, that the public may not be ready for them. But you know what? We are more than ready. We are furious. Enough redactions. Enough excuses about “national security.” Enough protecting these flesh-eating demons. Release every page. Name every name. Burn their world down. The American people deserve the truth — even if it makes us sick. Especially if it makes us sick.

Lt. General Russell Honore testified before the Louisiana Legislature, asserting that the recent SCOTUS decision can be corrected by the State legislature if it chooses to do so. He is a hero admired by many. #DemsUnited

We thank the United Kingdom, Canada, and the European Union for their important sanctions decisions targeting Russian entities and individuals involved in the abduction of Ukrainian children. The United Kingdom has now imposed restrictions on 85 individuals and legal entities. They are the ones involved in the deportation of Ukrainian children, the imposition of Russian ideology on them, their russification and militarization, as well as Russian propaganda operations. Canada is imposing sanctions on another 23 individuals and five organizations. They are responsible for the illegal deportation and forced transfer of our children, including their ideological indoctrination and militarization. The European Union’s sanctions package includes 16 individuals and 7 organizations involved in the systematic illegal deportation and transfer of Ukrainian children to the Russian Federation, followed by forced adoption and re-education. These are the ones who “rewire” the identity of Ukrainian children, help make them hate their homeland, and one day take up arms to fight against Ukraine. I am grateful for this principled position and for the fact that sanctions pressure is not stopping. Our partners have taken into account many of our proposals, including provisions from Ukraine’s sanctions package introduced several weeks ago. We must continue working together to bring all Ukrainian children home and to ensure that everyone behind these crimes is held accountable.

Hey world. When is it “enough”? The protests and incitement and threats weren’t enough. The Jew Hunt in Amsterdam wasn’t enough. The riots in Montreal weren’t enough. The shooting of a Jewish girls’ school in Toronto wasn’t enough. Vandalism of synagogues wasn’t enough. Beating of Jews wasn’t enough. The fire-bombing of a synagogue in Melbourne wasn’t enough. The Bondi Beach terror attack that killed 15 wasn’t enough. The ongoing harassment and intimidation of Jews isn’t enough. Will it take an escalation of violence? Beatings? Will that be what it takes for you to wake up, and realize the problem is much bigger, much more severe and much more critical than you’ve been willing to acknowledge? Will that be what it takes for you to actually start putting a stop to it? To enacting and enforcing laws that will actually help prevent these vicious acts, before there’s more loss of life? Or will it take more loss of life? And if so. How much? 25? 50? 100? Hundreds? Thousands? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands? Millions? 6 million? Is that what it’s going to take for you to say “Stop”? And actually mean it?

A woman who lives and works in California had $20,000 taken out of her bank account by The Oregon Department of Revenue She’s never lived in Oregon yet they were able to get her bank account information and take her money Oregon said the woman owed the money in unpaid income taxes and penalties, but she didn’t. She’s never lived or worked there She called and apparently Oregon has an address for her that was literally a public park They told her it would be 5+ months to refund her money. The woman had to get the local media involved to put pressure to make them give the money back faster Eventually, Oregon admitted it was a mistake Another state should not have access to out of state residents bank account information

I cannot believe we have to do this. The New York Times, the paper of record, just published an op-ed accusing the State of Israel of systematic sexual violence against Palestinian detainees, including the claim that Israel is training dogs to rape prisoners. One of their sources is a man who left his job after multiple people, including minors, accused him of sending them threatening and sexual messages. The other is Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, a group whose chairman was sanctioned by Israel as a Hamas operative and who publicly called the testimonies of Israeli women raped on October 7th “fabricated lies.” The Times is using the words of a man credibly accused of sexually harassing children, and an organization led by a man who denies the rape of Jewish women, to build a case that Israelis are sexual predators. This is the most serious accusation you can level at a country. It demands the most serious sourcing. The Times decided the opinion section was good enough. It is not good enough. And spare me the crocodile tears. The same people who spent two years calling the rape victims of October 7th liars, who told us “believe women” had an asterisk when the women were Jewish, are about to share this op-ed with tears in their eyes. They never cared about sexual violence. They cared about who they could pin it on. I do not want to spend my day writing about this. But when the largest newspaper in the world launders this against my people, silence is complicity. @nytimes owes our community, and its readers, an apology.

We're giving 400 diapers to new California families when they leave the hospital. And we're rolling out the program to those who need them the most first.  As if the stresses of having a child weren't enough -- the cost of diapers has gone up 45% since the pandemic. Families skip meals to pay for diapers.  We have rebuilt how government can support families and kids through increased paid leave, universal pre-k, child care, free school meals, student savings accounts and, now, by providing families with an essential first need.
