The cynics will tell you that one vote won’t change anything. But what they don’t tell you is that nothing can change without a vote. The truth is, the world doesn’t belong to the cynics. It’s up to us. New York: It’s time to vote.🗳️ Tuesday, June 25th. Spread the word.

My having been a waitress makes me 1000x more qualified to govern on behalf of working people than whatever lifelong politician nonsense you’ve swung from your whole career. Why should working people vote for you if this is what you think of them?

No war with Iran.

Amber Glenn, you made us all so proud and your resilience is endlessly inspiring. Isabeau Levito, your grace on the ice under pressure is a model to so many. And of course, our women’s hockey team with a heart stopping gold! What a beautiful day for our country at the games! 🏅

ALYSA LIU OH MY GOODNESS! 😭 🇺🇸

A data center in New Brunswick was canceled tonight when hundreds of residents showed up. When fight big tech and private equity we win.

Trump just declared, "glyphosate-based herbicides are a cornerstone of this Nation’s agricultural productivity and rural economy." And he's declaring glyphosate weedkiller to be a federally-protected critical resources. This is insanity. He is now pushing the mass poisoning of American food crops and groceries with cancer-causing deadly weedkiller chemicals that will be sprayed all over the food crops. Trump just declared chemical warfare on the American people. It's all here in black and white: whitehouse.gov/presidential-…

The only thing longer than my pause to think was their silence to his joke 💀

If a Prince can be held accountable, so can a President.

New details are emerging about a heated meeting on Saturday afternoon at the Bayerischer Hof hotel in Munich between several senators and members of Congress and Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, along with Greenland’s Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen. It was during this meeting that Senator Lindsey Graham reportedly went completely off the rails. The American outlet Puck had previously described how so-called “f-bombs” (f short for the word “fuck,” ed.) were thrown around the room. “Imagine Graham on his worst day,” a source told Puck. But Berlingske can now reveal that events unfolded even more violently than previously reported — and that Graham’s outburst was directed in particular at Mette Frederiksen and Jens-Frederik Nielsen. “He called her ‘little lady,’” a source who was in the room told Berlingske. However, the prime minister did not appear affected by what everyone present perceived as extremely degrading and outright sexist. “She seemed cool,” the source said. When Graham had finished, Frederiksen simply responded: “When you’re done with that, the meeting can continue.” Earlier, Graham had also stressed to Frederiksen and Nielsen that Donald Trump was the President of the United States — and thus the most powerful man in the world. The implication: neither Denmark nor Greenland should believe they are anything in comparison with the mighty United States. This “rant,” as a Danish source who was present in the room described it, came across as extremely demeaning toward Denmark and Greenland — particularly after the “little lady” remark directed at Mette Frederiksen. Graham’s behavior was described by a source as outright “disturbing,” “shocking,” and “extremely inappropriate.” An almost theatrical scene also unfolded between Graham and Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen. “Graham yawned directly in his face in a way that could only be interpreted as mocking,” the source told Berlingske. It became too much for some of the American participants at the meeting, and Senator Elissa Slotkin (Democrat) was reportedly so shocked that she stood up and left the meeting. In a sense, the meeting marked the culmination of Graham’s angry outbursts. Already on Friday, he had stunned observers on live television when asked about Greenland. “Who the hell cares who owns Greenland?” Graham said, according to CSPAN. Participants at the meeting described his conduct as “completely out of line.” According to Berlingske’s information, there was quiet speculation afterward as to whether the senator from South Carolina had lost his composure entirely — whether he was not in his right mind when meeting the Danish and Greenlandic leaders. Only Graham himself likely knows the answer to that. —Berlingske

Our government just gave this guy a $10 billion contract with the army and he is genuinely out of his mind. Plus, for the record, Palentir pays no federal taxes. We just pay them.

By invoking FDR’s warning about economic hardship and fascism, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is arguing that working-class populism isn’t just good policy — it’s democracy’s last line of defense: jacobin.com/2026/02/aoc-fdr-…

Millions of files related to Jeffrey Epstein suggest the existence of a 'global criminal enterprise' that carried out acts meeting the legal threshold of crimes against humanity, a panel of independent experts appointed by the UN Human Rights Council says reut.rs/3OnDpPM

AOC warned that democracy is under attack. She’s right. Treating that like partisan politics is a moral failure.

Last year, Musk urged the far-right German AfD Party to "move beyond past guilt" (i.e. Nazism) & Vance encouraged AfD's acceptance @MunSecConf. This year, AfD was invited to Munich & Rubio's message to allies was not to be "shackled by guilt & shame." It appears as though this White House is normalizing Nazism, or at least using neo-Nazi talking points.

This is genuinely one of the most disgusting statements I have ever seen issued by an American official. It should not stop shocking us that the Republican Party openly embraces this. Fine should be censured & stripped of committees. To ignore this is to accept and normalize it.

AOC came to Munich to warn about the far-right. Coverage focused on 2028 & verbal missteps. She gave me a call. "Everyone’s got this story wrong, that this is about me running for president," she said. "Global democracies are on fire the world over." nytimes.com/2026/02/16/us/po…

Everyone needs to take a deep breath and lock back in

At the Munich Security Conference, @AOC and I presented a new foreign policy vision for working people. The President doesn't like that—because he wants to protect his corrupt dealings overseas that work to enrich only the Trump family and elite.

Rep. @AOC: Market consolidation lets corporations rival nation-states and billionaires “call the shots,” risking democracies drifting toward authoritarianism: "There is a level of market concentration and corporate consolidation where a massive company can get so big that its consolidated power can rival that of nation states… In massive corporations that then begin to consume the public sector… they start to call the shots… It is of utmost urgent priority that we get our economic houses in order and deliver material gains for the working class, or else we will fall to a more isolated world governed by authoritarians."

We exposed the global far-right’s playbook at Munich, and how to stop them. Right on cue, Rubio beelined from his revisionist MAGA speech at MSC to boost Orbán in Hungary’s elections. We must wake up before it’s too late. A working class politics can defeat authoritarianism.
