What does it take to lead Miami as their first Democratic mayor in nearly 30 years? Mayor Eileen Higgins sits down with Sarah McCammon to discuss her commitment to public safety and economic opportunity for residents. Full episode drops tomorrow on all podcast platforms.

When Eileen Higgins was in her 40s, she had a moment of existential reflection that changed everything - launching her out of her corporate career and into the Peace Corps. And eventually, mayor of Miami. Excited to share our conversation: youtu.be/wdz06_xyzx4?si… via @YouTube

Stephen Miller’s mass deportation agenda has gone too far. He’s targeting Dreamers, who know no other home than the US, and letting agents racially profile Latinos. I’m fighting back. thehill.com/homenews/senat…

Darisbel Quintero Morillo and her husband Gilbert were living in Dallas and hoping to start a family. Darisbel learned that she was pregnant after she had been detained and locked away in an ICE prison. She began experiencing bleeding and went to the hospital. She learned that she miscarried. As she was grieving the loss, ICE chained her to her hospital bed. According to ICE’s own policies, she should never have been locked away while pregnant. What should have been a joyous time for her family became a nightmare under the Trump Administration’s cruel mass deportation machine. It is shameful. Darisbel should be released immediately.

Trump is declaring Mission Accomplished, but Venezuelans don’t feel it. Many political prisoners are in jail, exiles can’t safely return, Venezuelans deported from America are robbed, tortured and interrogated by the secret police. Venezuela needs elections, not statehood.

Four months after Maduro's removal, what's changed in Venezuela? No elections. No transition. No accountability. Just more corrupt profits for the regime and Trump's wealthy donors while hundreds of political prisoners remain in jail.

Another shooting. Another community grieving. My heart is with the victims and the Brown University community. Congress must finally act with courage and urgency to end the gun violence epidemic in our country. And if they won’t, the people have a responsibility to choose leaders who will. Enough.

Ashley Moody voted against Floridians today, again. She opposed extending ACA subsidies, abandoning more than 4.7 million Floridians who rely on these benefits for their healthcare. That’s not leadership. That’s not common sense. And it’s certainly not looking out for the people of our state. It’s cruel, and it’s wrong. Florida families deserve better. We deserve leaders who put people over politics. Join me in the fight to protect healthcare, and make sure every Floridian can care for their family with dignity.

My dear friend Eileen Higgins is the new Mayor of the City of Miami! She will be a great Mayor for everyone!

Today’s tragic shooting of two National Guardsmen in D.C. is a heartbreaking reminder of life’s fragility and the weight of service. We’re praying for them, their families, and all who stand watch. This is a time to reject division and hateful rhetoric. Violence has no place here. May we honor their sacrifice with unity, dignity, and compassion.

When I spoke with @KatiePhang, I made it clear: political stunts don’t help anyone. Florida needs practical solutions that lower costs, strengthen communities, and put people first. That’s the work we’re doing in this campaign. Watch the clip to see how.

Floridians are tired of the political circus — the rage-baiting, the division, the MAGA noise. People like @AshleyMoodyFL are failing the people of Florida. Costs keep rising, families keep struggling, and people are looking for practical, common-sense leadership again. I talked with @KatiePhang about exactly that. Here’s the conversation.

Republicans are calling the No Kings protests “un-American.” What’s un-American is deploying troops into our cities. Disappearing our people without due process. And silencing voices you disagree with. This country was founded on protest — from the Boston Tea Party to Selma to Stonewall. Peaceful dissent is not disloyalty; it’s the beating heart of democracy. If we let them win, we lose America.

I’m the son of immigrants, a dad, and a lifelong Floridian. I’m not a politician. I’m running for U.S. Senate because Florida families deserve better. This race is within reach — and we can win, together: hectormujica.com

HÉCTOR MUJICA LEADING THE WAY!! Venezuelan-American Ready to work for #Florida and for America, prepared, kind, emphatic. He knows how to lose a democracy feels, and he will fight with and for us. #HectorforSenate youtu.be/OHHZBSVCtRw?si…

National Republicans are counting on you to write off Florida and ignore this special election, but this race is a TIE. With your help, we can defeat our MAGA opponent and flip this Senate seat. Let’s build what’s next — together: secure.actblue.com/donate/social_…
