💥NEW: Dem Rep. Jake Auchincloss says Graham Platner’s Nazi tattoo should be “DISQUALIFYING”🤯 “I find that tattoo and his commentary about it to be personally disqualifying. I hope Maine voters agree with me.” CNN’s Boris Sanchez: “Wow.”




Leadership is not using power to serve your own needs; it is using power to serve the needs of others.





The largest block of voters - particularly in low-turnout primaries - are older folks (like me). Sorry, but I just cannot take candidates seriously if they wear a nose ring in their photos. This is a candidate mailer in a rather affluent district in the Annapolis area…

Lavrov called Rubio, asking the U.S. to evacuate the American embassy and American citizens from Kyiv because Moscow intends to launch a campaign of systematic strikes on the Ukrainian capital. Like they haven’t been doing it for more than four years now!

The moment of one of today’s Russian strikes on Kyiv. I can see that fewer and fewer people are reading news from Ukraine. I understand that on a Sunday morning, people don’t want to read about war. They want to sleep a little longer, drink good coffee, and sit in the sun. I understand that. The algorithms on X limit content about war, destruction, and suffering. You have to make an effort to even see this information. All of this is understandable on a human level. But unfortunately, if you remove Putin and the war from your information feed, they do not disappear from reality. Putin is a sadist and a maniac. He is a threat to all of humanity. There needs to be active resistance. News from Ukraine needs to be shared. People need to keep their focus. Despite a sleepless night, I’m still here. And I’m grateful to everyone who continues to stand with us. One day, we’ll drink morning coffee together in a beautiful, peaceful Kyiv.

I never believed claims Netanyahu has "blackmail material" against Trump BUT IF NETANYAHU IS ABLE TO SABOTAGE A DEAL WITH IRAN, THEN IT'S CLEAR HE DOES HAVE SOMETHING ON TRUMP

I filed with FEC for the 2028 House race. This allows me to raise funds to continue my political operations supporting my position as a current office holder and as a potential candidate for federal office. I haven’t made a final decision about which office to seek, if I run.
