Donald Trump and JD Vance want to make it easier to build data centers in your community without input from you.
We need MORE guardrails, not less.
Donald Trump doesn't even hide that he wants to seize control of our elections.
It’s all part of his authoritarian project.
I’m saddened to hear of the passing of Tom Houck.
Tom Houck was a Civil Rights legend who worked alongside Dr. King during some of the movement’s most important moments. He worked tirelessly to preserve Civil Rights history and the movement’s legacy for the rest of his life. I’m praying for his family and his loved ones as they mourn this loss.
Donald Trump knows that he is failing.
He is doing everything he can to hold on to power.
We must not let him diminish our voice.
No money for disaster aid.
No money for health care.
But plenty of money for billionaire tax cuts and another war in the Middle East.

BREAKING:
Trump's head of FEMA just told states to prepare to handle disasters on their own.
The Trump admin's disaster chief told state officials they must increase their financial reserves and emergency capabilities to handle most disasters on their own — without federal help. politico.com/news/2026/10/20…
In 2024, 300 billionaires and their families donated 19% of all money spent on federal elections.
Billionaires should spend less on elections and more in taxes.
I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Air Force Tech. Sgt. Ian Patterson. I’m praying for his loved ones, fellow Airmen, and the entire Fort Stewart community as we mourn his loss.
The Trump family has turned our government into their personal piggy bank.
They don't even hide their corruption.
Donald Trump's proudest accomplishment is taking food away from working families to give his donors another tax cut.
This is a senseless tragedy. My heart is with the children, families, educators, and entire community in Bend, Oregon. I’m mourning those we lost and praying for their families. We MUST do more to protect our children from gun violence.

I don’t understand how my Republican colleagues could hold hands with their fellow legislators, say a long prayer, and then vote to cut a trillion dollars out of Medicaid.
There ought to be a connection between what you say on Sunday and what you do on Monday.
Heartbreaking news. My thoughts are with his loved ones, the Wesley International Academy community, and all those mourning his loss.

UPDATE: 42 year-old Hassan Jihad Ibn Kariem has been identified as the man killed on the Goliath roller coaster at Six Flags Over Georgia yesterday. Kariem was a staff member at the Wesley International Academy in the Atlanta Public Schools.
Kariem's family released this photo and told @11AliveNews that "he was a passionate educator who loved his city and was invested in bringing families back together."
The Atlanta Public Schools released this statement:
"Atlanta Public Schools extends its deepest condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of Mr. Kariem. He was a cherished member of the Wesly International Academy and APS families whose presence and impact will be deeply missed by our students, staff, and all those whose lives he touched. Our thoughts are with everyone mourning his loss during this difficult time."
This Indigenous Peoples day, we celebrate the heritage and lasting contributions of Indigenous communities across the country.
It's an honor to support the Indigenous communities who call Georgia home.
Whenever I'm feeling demoralized, I think of my parishioner John Lewis.
He had no reason to think that he would win when he was crossing the Edmund Pettus bridge.
But he just kept walking. We MUST keep walking.
"No new wars" turned out to be one of the most egregious lies ever told by a presidential candidate.
I'm carefully monitoring Hurricane Isaias. Stay safe and listen to local warnings. My office remains ready to assist those in need.
