Smash that 💙 if you’ve been against Trump since the day he rode down the Trump Tower escalator in June 2015.

On the campaign trail, I made a promise to South Carolinians: Lowering costs would be my top priority. Today, I made my first stop as Senator-elect back on Shem Creek, where I first called on Washington to “lower the damn diesel.” I came back to make clear that my commitment hasn’t changed. I’ll work with anyone, regardless of party, to bring down costs for South Carolina families. That’s also why I called Senator Tim Scott today. I’m ready to put politics aside, find common ground, and get to work delivering results for the people of South Carolina.

Sen. Ted Cruz: "Texas is blue. That is a hard sentence to utter. But Texas, today at least, is blue...We will bring Texas back. I am filled with hope and optimism. Texas will be red again. We have not suddenly become a bunch of tofu-eating, gun-banning, tutu-wearing pinko commie liberals. That ain’t us. Texas is still Texas."

Donald Trump asked the American people to vote like he was on the ballot — we did, and his enablers lost everywhere.

South Carolina, you have shown the nation — in an era of partisan divides, of vitriol and namecalling, in a politics dominated by billionaires, special interests, and insiders in Washington — that we will not bow down. We will not back down. And we will chart our own course.

Ken Paxton is a crook who was impeached by Texas Republicans over allegations of bribery, corruption, abuse of office, and retaliation against whistleblowers. He’ll be nothing more than Trump’s puppet in the Senate. Paxton has no business being in the U.S. Senate.
BREAKING: James Talarico now 70% to become Texas's first elected Democratic U.S. senator in 38 years. Final polls close in just over 8 hours.

BREAKING: The U.S. struck Iran’s Qeshm Island, according to U.S. officials. According to The Wall Street Journal, the strike is part of a series of limited, largely undisclosed U.S. attacks on Iran in recent weeks, which Washington describes as defensive measures aimed at preventing Iranian attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Earlier today, Trump told Axios in a phone interview that he’s “in no rush” to decide whether to resume military action against Iran. “One way or the other, we will do something, but there is no rush. We crippled them financially. They have no money, no gasoline and their people are getting very tired of it,” Trump said.

As a mother and grandmother, it sickens me to think of children arriving at school to find their buses defaced with swastikas and hateful antisemitic messages. No Jewish child or family should have to endure this kind of fear and intimidation. Those responsible must be identified, arrested, and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Earlier today, the DSA's National Political Committee narrowly voted 14–13 against rescinding its endorsement of Nithya Raman in the L.A. mayoral race, following an internal dispute over her stance on Israel
Between Karen Bass and her far-left, DSA-backed opponent, Nithya Raman, Bass is clearly the only choice

Donald Trump consistently threatens the very freedoms that make us who we are as Americans: The right to marry who you love, make decisions about your own body, and participate in our democracy — whether in person or by mail. My promise to you is that I will always protect your fundamental freedoms here in Pennsylvania — no matter who or what stands in the way.

According to the latest New York Times/Siena poll of likely voters, Democrat Josh Turek leads Republican Ashley Hinson 48% to 47%. Blue tsunami
Iowa hasn't elected a Democratic U.S. senator since 2008. Trump carried the state by 13 points in 2024. Now, Democrat Josh Turek is within striking distance of flipping the seat. Wow
