I want to share a brief update.
My presidential memoir, PROMISE ME, AMERICA, is coming out on November 17th. I hope you'll read it. It covers my years as President. The challenges we faced, the decisions I made, and why I made them. It's about who we are as a nation. What we stand for. And America's role in the world. More than anything, it's about my faith in the American people and the great American experiment in self-governance and democracy.
While writing the book, I was diagnosed with cancer, a disease known all too well to millions of Americans and their families. My doctors continue to be encouraged by how I've responded to treatment. And the prayers and kind words and well wishes from so many of you have meant more to me and Jill and our family than you can ever know.
Some days are better than others. It hasn't stopped me. But sometimes it slows me down. What that means is, unfortunately, I won’t be able to do as many conversations about my book as I’d hoped. However, I’m hopeful the words on the page speak for themselves.
Looking forward, I'm going to keep following what my father told me a long time ago: "Champ, when you get knocked down, get up." It's a good lesson for me. And for America.
We are blessed. America is the most unique nation on earth. Unlike other countries, we're built on an idea. An idea bigger than any ocean. More powerful than any army. Stronger than any tyrant or dictator. That idea? All of us are created equal.
Promise Me, America, we'll never forget it.

BREAKING: The Senate just voted 50-46 to strip Donald Trump of his power to impose tariffs.
Multiple Republicans joined Democrats to shut him down, second night in a row the GOP has turned on him.
Trump’s grip on his own party is cracking in real time.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
These Senate votes took place in October 2025, not this week. The Senate passed S.J.Res.88 on global tariffs 51-47, the vote shown in the video. The 50-46 vote, held the same week, was on Canada tariffs.

Watch Jeffries and Schumer sabotage all our gains. Jeffries needs to explain his secret meeting with a traitor

24 hours ago I wrote that Trump biographers agreed this was the calm before the storm; Trump was going to go crazy, not chill out; and we only had 24–96 hours before it happened.
Well, here we are: Stephen Miller is Chief of Staff, suspension of habeas corpus is being discussed.

By appointing, Stephen Miller, chief of staff, Trump has doubled the odds that he will be impeached with the Jack Smith Vol 2 classified documents report showing his treason and the Epstein files showing his rapes of 13-year-olds are going to be fully public.

Impeach corrupt Judge Aileen Cannon and uncover the deal she made to help Trump hide his classified document crimes.

Reminder. Melaria is also in the Epstein files and being blackmailed like Trump and all of them. They are in for a very bumpy ride.

Jeffries is the wrong person to be Speaker of the House. The landslide is not only about inflation. He ignores the nationwide fury of voters at Trump for corruption, criminality, tariffs, abuse of immigrants, starting & losing a war with Iran, and appointing thugs like Hegseth, Noem and Blanche.
Jeffries swore an oath to uphold the constitution. That includes stopping crimes that are IN PROGRESS by Trump like selling pardons, phony prosecutions of his enemies and the Epstein files cover-up. The economy and Trump‘s criminality can both be tackled by the House at the same time if we have a Speaker with backbone.
The Republicans doing their election postmortems are more realistic than the comments from Jeffries. Just stick to being a rep and we’ll get someone dynamic to be Speaker.

I hope congressional Democrats start their oversight with the large law firms that cut deals with Trump.

He blows up six data centers in Russia and suddenly every Republican loses their election. 🤔

BREAKING: Trump is reportedly SCARED SHITLESS, he now fears going to prison for his many crimes.
Including raping kids with Jeffrey Epstein!

My mom said she can drop us off at Muslim conversion classes if yours can pick us up from our gender reassignment surgeries.

Yesterday was a great day for our democracy. If we want to hold on to what we’re feeling today, we need to get to work.

Trump is done. He will probably resign as the Epstein evidence and Jack Smith Vol 2 classified document report begin to corner him in the coming months.

BREAKING: HOLY SMOKES! Democrats now control enough states to effectively abolish the Electoral College through the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
Republicans did NOT have this on their bingo cards...
Under the Constitution, states control their electoral votes and are allowed to decide how they are allocated during presidential elections. Currently, almost every state gives its votes to whoever wins the state.
In practice, the current system means that a candidate can win the national popular vote, but lose the election because small states like Wyoming exert undue influence on the outcome. That state has 3 electoral votes with a population of just 577,000 people. California has 54 electoral votes and a population of 39.5 million people. So a vote in Wyoming is essentially 3.8 times as valuable as one in California.
Since 1992, Democrats have won the popular vote seven out of nine times.
Under the NPV, states that join agree to give their electoral votes to whoever wins the national popular vote, not just their own state. So a state could go red on the map, but if the Democrat wins the national vote, they still get that state's votes. And vice versa of course.
The crucial mechanism is that the compact doesn't trigger until the member states have a combined power of at least 270 electoral votes, the number needed to win the White House. So far, 18 states plus D.C. have joined, totaling 222 electoral votes. We only need 48 more.
Now is the chance to pass this measure in every state possible. Democrats won both houses of the legislature in Wisconsin for the first time in 18 years (10 electoral votes). We won the Pennsylvania state Senate for the first time since 1993 (19 votes). We now have a trifecta in Michigan (15 votes). And we won the governor’s race in Nevada (6 votes).
10 + 19 + 15 + 6 = 50.
222 + 50 = 272.
And if we hold our lead in the Arizona Senate, that number could climb as high as 283, more than enough to trigger the compact.
In addition to removing an imbalance in our system that favors Republicans, this novel approach would fundamentally change how candidates run their presidential campaigns. Currently, they are incentivized to ignore most of the country. If you live in a “safe” state, red or blue, your vote for President is basically decided before you cast it. Campaigns spend their time and money in a handful of swing states while the rest of us watch from the sidelines. If the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is adopted, they'll have reason to hit every state because they're aiming to win the largest swath of the country as a whole, not just certain states.
States have until July 20, 2028 to join the compact in time for the next presidential election.
We can fix our democracy. The time is now.

First things Dems in the House should do: vote to restore the subsidies for ACA accounts and get rid of the cuts to Medicaid & SNAP. On Day One.
