Based on media estimates from diverse sources, taxpayer costs for President Trump's golf trips since Jan. 20, 2025, total $56 million as of July. Projecting linearly for the full year: approx. $115 million. This could feed about 29,300 food-insecure children annually (Feeding America's $3,920/child estimate).

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up. What’s most clear to me tonight is that this is just the beginning, that Americans across this country, no matter their title or party, are ready to be heard. I believe that history will show we rose to meet this moment. It will show we did not let the chaos and division go unanswered. It will show that when our president chose to spread lies and sow fear, we chose to come together, to work together, and to rise together.

Trump's win shows us who we really are: This article by professor Aaron W. Hughey is one of the most powerful and accurate post-election indictments of America you'll ever read. 😳👇

You may’ve heard I’ve got a big speech coming up. So, I thought I would hear from some folks who have done the job before – sort of.

Commemorating the first, annual Seth Boyer Award for Excellence in Research, in memory of Seth, a @UMPhysiology student in the lab. Seth was an extremely bright, hard-working, thoughtful, diligent scientist. He never backed down from a challenge and made important contributions to our understanding of pancreatic cancer*. In his memory, we have established this award, whose inaugural recipient is Damien Sutton. Damien embodies those characteristics of excellence that we knew and loved in Seth. May this award be a testament to the awesome scientist, colleague and friend he was. * elifesciences.org/articles/7… @eLife pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3641… @NatureCancer
