We have to prepare for the day when Donald Trump will permanently leave the White House. And, even more importantly, the day after that.

It matters to have leaders who care about the right things - as I was reminded during my last flight out of Pittsburgh International Airport. Here's why.

Let's ban gerrymandering.

JD Vance has asked for another chance. We literally can't afford it.

In person, we're usually different - and better - than we are online.

Things can't go on like this - but we also must not return to the previous status quo.

We don’t have to put up with this. Not these policies or these politicians or even this system of politics. It's time for us to chase out corruption and build a politics that actually responds to the people.

If I said we have a broken political system, it'd be the least memorable thing I said all day. We all know it. We all say it. The question is: Why do we act like it isn't? It can't go on like this.

Thank you to everyone who showed up to support @CaitforNewYork last night in Tarrytown — the energy was tremendous. Cait has exactly the kind of toughness we need right now in Congress. While serving in the Army, she deployed to combat zones six times, earned three bronze stars, and became one of the first women in Special Operations leadership. I’m proud to be in Cait’s corner. Now let’s keep working hard to elect strong leaders like her this November!

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Not every “Secretary Pete” is the same.

After nearly two years of economic failure and broken promises, JD Vance’s midterm pitch these closing weeks is “give us another chance.” The American people cannot afford another round of this - and the good news is we don’t have to.

How can they justify leaving right now? Diesel costs just hit an all-time high. Our nation is at war. The bond market is quivering. The urgency of AI regulation has come to a critical moment. Congress should be working overtime. Instead Speaker Johnson sent them home. All to dodge one uncomfortable vote - much like his maneuvers last year to hold off the Epstein files. You don't have to be a Democrat to find that disgraceful. In less than seven weeks, Americans can change all this. 48 days to go.

Thank you to the nearly a thousand New Mexicans who showed up yesterday in Las Cruces! Electing independent-minded, honest, courageous, compassionate leaders like Gabe Vasquez and Deb Haaland is a big part of how we will make our politics - and our country - better for the future.

While too many in Congress are absorbed in partisan combat, @Gabe_NM has stayed focused on solving problems and helping his constituents. Time and again, he has set politics aside to deliver for New Mexico. I was excited to join him at today's town hall in Deming - and am proud to be in his corner.

The dangers of artificial intelligence have become an enormous issue - yet the White House has been so passive that even the AI companies themselves are asking what it will take to get government to step up and establish safeguards.

One day, our children will ask us what we did during this pivotal moment in American history. We owe it to them to have a good answer.

Tucson is fired up! Thank you to everyone who came out to support @Mendoza4AZ in this critical race. We have a chance to flip long-held Republican districts like Arizona's 6th this November - and it's on all of us to keep knocking on doors, making calls, and talking to our neighbors to ensure leaders like Jo are elected.
