I was honored this week to welcome 38 new citizens to America.
This nation will never be perfect, but every day we can be better. To our newest fellow Americans: you are the symbol of better. You help us create a more perfect union.
Thank you for joining our country.

The Stone Arch Bridge is one of the most iconic representations of Minnesota’s cultural and industrial history.
After a year and a half of maintenance, I’m proud of @MnDOT for fixing it safely, under budget, ahead of schedule.
It’s now officially ready for Minnesota summer!

NEW: Minnesota just ranked in the top 5 states for quality of life.
No matter what happens in Washington, we’re still focused on making Minnesota the best place to live, work, and raise a family.

AOC puts it all on the line - " We'll rally every corner of the United States of America until we save Medicaid and Medicare for every American until we defend social security... And we tell them who's really in charge in this country."

Twenty percent of Americans rely on Medicaid. Trump's cruel and punishing cuts will result in millions of preventable deaths. #MedicaidCutsKill

Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill" devastating cuts to Medicaid and the Republican Congress's refusal to extend ACA tax credits are projected to cause 15 million Americans to lose health insurance, effectively destroying our health care system. #MedicaidCutsKill

The trillion dollar cuts Trump and Republicans in Congress did to Medicaid will be devastating! Tens of thousands will die every year due to lack of healthcare. Congress must repeal these cuts in the 2025 budget reconciliation act NOW to save lives #MedicaidCutsKill

It's NEVER too late to fight for Medicaid because without it, you or your loved ones will die 🩸🩸🩸

#MedicaidCutsKill Republicans did not listen to their constituents and they passed the Big Ugly Bill that cut Medicaid benefits BIGLY! It’s the main funding source for disability care and long term care for elderly. People will die unless these funding cuts are stopped. Please Rt

President Obama has released a statement:
"Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.
"Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes. These findings were affirmed in a 2020 report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, led by then-Chairman Marco Rubio."

Sadly there wouldn’t have been any pardons to give, because if those atrocities on Jan 6 had been committed by black people they would have been gunned down. The hypocrisy is astounding.
