    After a two year COVID hiatus, it was great to see an enthusiastic crowd from Cheshire/Southington/Wolcott/Waterbury at my annual St. Patrick’s Day breakfast. I’ve been doing this since I represented these towns in the State Senate. Thanks to for joining!

    There were just a ton of very important Republicans actively trying to organize a coup. Like, we all understand this, right? This wasn’t just some different flavor of normal politics.

    . says, “No deal can not be an option because no deal is Iran on the brink of having a nuclear weapon and a nuclear arms race being set off in the Middle East. Given everything that we're dealing with in Ukraine right now, why on earth would we want that problem?"

    The vast majority of recent US political coverage of the Ukraine crisis has been, "Why won't Biden approve a no-fly zone to stop the death we're seeing on our TVs???" It's accountability-free war-drum-banging and makes anyone unwilling to take that calamitous risk seem weak.

    Interesting that Biden's Ukraine response still polls badly. If you said a month ago "there won't be WWIII, American troops won't be sent there, and Russia will get bogged down without taking Kiev" you'd sound like a naive optimist. (1/2)

    "Biden has a deep sense of the hinge moment we are in. I think he understands the need to get it right for future generations" - told me. Biden arrives in Brussels at 9pm local time, big day at Nato/G7/EU tomorrow - then on to Poland.

    Madeleine Albright was a lion. She understood both the miracle and fragility of democracy and dedicated her career to fighting for its survival. She was a trailblazer who mentored thousands - including me. The country will miss her. The world will miss her. I will miss her.

    Britain needs to act. Their hostage deal with Iran left behind Morad (a U.S./British citizen), but required Iran to grant Morad home release. Iran hasn’t upheld their end of the deal and Britain should make sure the funds they promised to Iran are not transferred.

    Update: Morad is back in Evin Prison again. Not in a hotel, not on furlough, not reunited with his family. , please act and stand by your word

    Not a single Iran deal opponent has a better idea. “Maximum pressure” sanctions didn’t work. Sabotage and assassination hasn’t worked. War with Iran won’t work. Diplomacy is the only viable path that has ever expanded Iran’s breakout time.

    None of this is classified info btw. Getting back into the JCPOA doesn’t require all IRGC sanctions or human rights sanctions to be lifted. And economic relief will be limited bc most multinational companies have just decided to stay out of Iran.

    I was in today's Iran briefing. None of this reflects what is in the proposed deal. Economic relief will be limited Human rights sanctions remain. IRGC will remain heavily sanctioned. There is no path to stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon other than this deal. Period. Stop.

    A nuclear deal that offers $90-$130B in sanctions relief, relieves sanctions against ’s worst offenders, & delists the doesn't support our nat'l security interests. Worse, this deal could enable to build his nuclear arsenal. Biden should walk away.

    . is spot on here. Access to affordable, high-quality child care and universal pre-k isn’t just a progressive wish list item. It would cut costs for literally millions of people, allow small and large businesses to remain productive, and grow our economy.

    This is important. A new, strong bipartisan majority to dramatically increase American clean energy potential. Rare that one policy can both secure our country and save our planet simultaneously.
