Should everyone have showed up to vote? Absolutely. Pat Ryan even checked himself out of the hospital to get there! It’s embarrassing.
And as Jesse even noted, the Democrats are going to have a gazillion seat majority in January and Hakeem Jeffries has said everything is on the table. Robert Garcia is moving ahead on the accountability front and Jeffries is talking about big priorities like banning stock trading, restoring Medicaid cuts and Obamacare subsidies, reasserting Congressional authority over tariffs and war.
Doesn’t seem like the right moment for us to be so divided. Just my two cents!

It has been an honor to be part of the legal team that helped secure this historic victory.
I could not be prouder of the work Elias Law Group does every day to help Democrats like Scott Colom win elections, citizens vote and progressives make change.

Oh honey!!!
Poor @KatieMiller is WEEPING that $200M from her liege Elon Musk wasn't enough to sell Ken Paxton to people smarter than all of them.

He sold out our national security to keep the stock market high.
NEW: The world is wondering why the Trump administration has not taken action against the company at the center of suspected Nvidia chip smuggling and an espionage scandal involving CEO Jensen Huang.
Six high-level sources all pointed to one administration official who they say has repeatedly stood in the way: Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.

How fitting. The guy who covered up sex abuse at Ohio State & wanted to overthrow an election is now the Republican Leader in the House of Representatives.
It’s who they are. And it’s why they lost.

On the tiny island of Corvo in the Azores, about 450 people do something beautiful every autumn. 🌙
For five nights, the whole island switches off its lights.
It's for the baby Cory's shearwaters. When the young seabirds leave their nests for the very first time, they follow the light of the moon and stars to find the ocean. But bright street lamps and windows confuse them. Many fly toward the village instead, crash, and can't take off again.
So since 2019, the islanders turn off the lights, and the night sky guides the chicks safely out to sea.
No laws, no big budget. Just a whole community deciding that a few dark nights are worth it. 🐦💙

Cindy Hyde-Smith finally concedes to Senator-Elect @scott_colom. This would have been a fine speech… six days ago. Her refusal to concede cost him orientation and time to lobby for slots on the best committees (@chuckschumer @SenSchumer better give him those anyway).

Congratulations to my friend @scott_colom, Mississippi’s next U.S. Senator! We need more voices like yours in the U.S. Senate, and Mississippi recognized that. I can’t wait to work together when we get to Washington!

Today, we honor the brave men and women who have served our country and the sacrifices they and their families have made on our behalf.
But honoring our veterans requires more than words of gratitude. It requires action.
That means better access to health care, shorter wait times, stronger mental health services, and a VA that treats every veteran with the dignity, respect, and urgency they deserve.
Our veterans have already answered the call to serve their country. They shouldn’t have to fight Washington to receive the care and benefits they’ve earned.
They fought for us. In the U.S. Senate, I’ll fight for them.

@SenWhitehouse I’m so disappointed that you’re standing there supporting this messaging. Gillibrand scolding and trying to bully us into accepting the establishment we voted AGAINST is obnoxious.
I expected more from you though. 💔

The Democratic Party needs a new and bold direction. I will not support Chuck Schumer’s reelection as Democratic leader.

Not too late to fight against the destruction of Big Bend! Our leaders should speak up now! This can’t wait for new leaders to be sworn in. Show us you really care about Texas!

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for the Trump administration to resume border barrier construction in the Big Bend region of West Texas, including the national park. texastribune.org/2026/11/09/…

wow -- CNN broadcast footage of an Arlington guard yelling at a group with Pete Hegseth to "MAINTAIN SILENCE ... PAY RESPECT!" after someone in his entourage started laughing at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Tomorrow, the Senate will take a key vote on the $1.1 TRILLION defense bill.
It not only fails to rein in Trump’s Iran war, it also has a provision touted by PM Netanyahu to MANDATE more U.S. defense cooperation with Israel.
None of this is in our national security interests. I will vote NO.
DC retweeted
Today, I led 11 of my Senate colleagues in calling on House & Senate leadership to strip the upcoming defense bill of provisions that MANDATE defense & intelligence cooperation with Israel — including one advanced by Netanyahu himself.
This doesn’t make us safer, see why ⬇️

Scott Colom slams Mississippi’s Republican Secretary of State Michael Watson for using credit agency data to remove Mississippians from the active voter rolls: “Experian told him they were not reliable. And he did it anyway. This chaos is a result of that decision.”
