    A bipartisan consensus to reject use of hacked or stolen material in elections is essential to protecting our elections from foreign interference. House Democrats have pledged to win without the help of hackers or foreign intelligence agencies, but Republicans have balked.

    Yesterday’s NYT op-ed sparked a debate about whether its author should resign, but few questioned its veracity. That the author chose to remain anonymous illustrates the dilemma facing anyone working in the Trump Administration: How do you ethically serve a deeply unethical man?

    Official government statistics show wages have flatlined. The White House, crying "fake news!" released their own numbers. This isn’t a reality show where you can cut bad scenes. People can see what's in their paychecks.

    Kavanaugh won’t recuse himself, but also won’t say whether a president can obstruct justice if he chooses, whether he can use the pardon power to do so, or whether he must respond to a subpoena. Judge Kavanaugh calls these mere hypothetical questions. But they are all too real.

    Today a federal judge hears argument in a case brought by GOP Attorneys General to strike down protections for those with pre-existing conditions. Again. Republicans are not going to stop trying to take away our health care. It's up to us to stop them by winning in November.

    Why do you think the President did not attack Nike for using Colin Kaepernick as an endorser? A) His job as president is to unite us B) Using his office to attack a private company for protected speech would be an abuse of power C) Nike is his tenant and pays him a lot of rent

    Over a century after the very first Labor Day, and millions of American families are still struggling to get by, only one unexpected health or car problem away from failing. Dolores Huerta reminds us what working people have achieved, and how much more is yet to be done.

    Attorney General Sessions cannot decline to charge Rep. Collins or Rep. Hunter because they were the first to endorse you, or because of their political party. That you want an AG who is loyal to you and the GOP over the rule of law says it all.

    After granting a huge tax cut for large corporations and wealthy real estate developers like himself, the President has decided there’s not enough left to afford any pay increase this year for federal employees. The working stiff gets stiffed again. Thanks, Donald.

    In 2006, shady lobbyist Jack Abramoff went to jail, and Democrats flipped the House. Now we learn that Republicans just accepted $50k from Abramoff’s accomplice, Adam Kidan. Let’s make sure history repeats itself, and this time we put an end to the GOP cycle of corruption.

    The President suspended military exercises with South Korea and got nothing for it. Reversed course on ZTE sanctions and got no trade concessions from China. It’s time we accepted the fact that he may be a great self-promoter, but the President is in fact a terrible negotiator.

    Mr. President, are you sure it wasn’t the 400 pound guy sitting on his bed? Don’t we need to investigate him too?

    Secret meetings between President and postmaster general to raise rates on Amazon and punish Bezos and the Washington Post, and now secret meetings with the head of GSA to maximize real estate values for Trump Hotel. GOP position: hear no evil, see no evil, do no oversight.

    BREAKING: If Democrats take back the House, we plan to do something called “oversight.” Congress would also become what is called “a co-equal branch of government.” If these are unfamiliar concepts, it’s because the current Congress sees its role as no more than a rubber stamp.

    Manafort and Cohen evaded taxes and committed fraud undetected for years, in part because Republicans have systematically cut resources to investigate white collar criminals. Drain the swamp, indeed.

    There’s so much at stake: from a woman’s right to choose, to voting rights and the rule of law. Keep speaking out. Keep calling. Keep emailing. Keep organizing. Keep spreading the word. We must keep up the pressure on the Senate to reject Brett Kavanaugh!

    Members of Congress pledge to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. But most Republicans in Congress view their jobs as defending the President against all investigations, both congressional and law enforcement. Let’s throw the bums out in November.

    The President’s lawyer admits recommending that a pardon of Manafort be put off until later because of the “optics”. Reward your friends (even if they’re crooks) and punish your enemies (even if innocent). The White House now acts like little more than a racketeering enterprise.
