Referring to Putin as a “humanitarian” is like calling Hannibal Lecter an omnivore — it misses the bigger picture.
U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff praised Russian President Vladimir Putin as "a humanitarian" following the release of U.S. citizen Stephen Hubbard on Wednesday. During a meeting in St. Petersburg, Witkoff thanked Putin for freeing the American — whom the U.S. government had declared wrongfully detained — and lauded the Russian autocrat, who ordered the ongoing full-scale invasion of Ukraine almost five years ago.
Witkoff was in Russia as Trump administration and Russian officials were set to have talks focused on the Ukraine war.
Yet another promise for something he should have been doing for the last 2 years.
Fair compensation for vets and their families is not dependent on a vote for Trump's allies.
Don't believe his lies. If he actually wanted to help veterans, we could do it today.
235 days and over $40 billion on Trump's war with Iran, and not even his top officials know how to end it.
No one is safer, and all of us are paying for it.
There are so many paths to a successful career.

I was honored to join Family Health Centers to mark 50 years of service to our community — an opportunity to reflect on the past, celebrate all that has been accomplished, and brace for the future.
Just like the incredible staff and leadership at Family Healthcare Center, I will never stop fighting for high quality, affordable healthcare for everyone.
The baseless raid against Rep. Omar is an extreme and vindictive abuse of power.
Trump told us he was going to go after his political enemies, and he's doing it.
He will not stop until he silences everyone who disagrees with him, which is why everyone must stand up to him.

Aminata Seck and Armelle Bondonga are back where they belong: with their families and friends.
These young women are beloved members of our community who were unlawfully detained by ICE and held in detention for months — thank you to every person who worked toward their release or helped raise awareness about their cases.
We know there are many more of our neighbors currently experiencing the same injustice, and we will continue to do everything we can to stop the chaos and cruelty of the Trump administration.

Three years after Hamas’ horrific October 7 attack on Israel, my heart is with the victims and their families — I know this day is particularly painful.
I am also heartbroken for the thousands of innocent Palestinians who have been killed and their neighbors and loved ones who have endured overwhelming loss.
It is long past time for an end to this war and suffering. We need lasting peace, security, and self-determination for both the Israeli and the Palestinian people.
