Churchill could have shortened WW2 by years if he had just “done a deal” with Hitler. George Washington could have done a deal to end the American Revolution. Zelenskyy is in good company.

There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator.

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all. Slava Ukraini🇺🇸🇺🇦

Let’s be clear about what this is: a coordinated political hit meant to drive me out of this race. This represents everything that is wrong with our politics today. The establishment clinging to power, mudslinging as a means of skirting accountability at the ballot box.
I’m proud of who I am. I won’t be shamed into silence – and I won’t allow my private life to be distorted and weaponized against me.
Heres the truth - I’m fighting to make life easier for hardworking families. Tackling the affordability crisis, fixing our broken healthcare system, and cleaning up the corruption in DC. That’s why I got in this race — and that’s what I’ll fight for in Washington.
I’m in this to win — for all of us. I’ve never been one to back down, and I’m not backing down now.
Let’s go win. Link in bio to donate.

We were honored to welcome @RepRaskin to Remsenburg, where he officially endorsed our campaign and rallied supporters around the fight to flip NY-01.
One year ago, we launched this campaign with a simple belief: Long Island deserves leadership that shows up, listens, and puts service before politics.
Since then, this movement has grown beyond anything we could have imagined. From packed town halls to national support and growing momentum across the district, more and more people are recognizing what we already know: NY-01 is ready for change.
Thank you, Congressman Raskin, for standing with us and believing in what we’re building here on Long Island.
The momentum just keeps growing.
Let’s do this in November, share our campaign with your friends and family. It’s time for real representation.

NY-01 is officially on the map.
Our district has been added to the DCCC’s highly competitive Districts in Play program because the momentum to flip this seat is real, and it’s being driven by the people of Long Island.
The truth is, NY-01 is tired of being represented by no-show Nick LaLota. Our communities deserve more than a Congressman who skips town halls, spends more time rubber stamping Washington’s agenda than listening to the people he represents, and puts politics ahead of the needs of Long Island families.

Let us condemn the terrorist attack in Germany, loudly and without apology.
Yesterday, a van rammed into the crowd at Berlin Pride, killing one person and injuring at least sixteen others in what authorities are investigating as an Islamist terrorist attack.
Berlin has always been a beacon of freedom. A city that rose from the scars of division to become a symbol of democracy, human dignity, and the right to live freely. That is why violence targeting a Pride celebration here is so deeply painful. My thoughts are with everyone who was injured or traumatized, simply for celebrating who they are.
I have warned European leaders, at the Munich Security Conference, at the United Nations, in every room that would listen, that appeasing Islamist ideology and silencing those who speak the truth about it would have consequences. That day has come. Again.
Do not silence criticism of Islamism by calling it Islamophobia. That silencing is itself a weapon used against freedom.
Berlin must remain what it has always represented, a city where everyone, regardless of religion, gender, sexual orientation, or background, can live safely, speak freely, and love without fear.
Freedom is never guaranteed. It survives only when we have the courage to defend it.
