🚨🚨🚨 My opponent’s dark money SuperPAC is flooding #MD04 with more than a million in false-negative attacks against me in a desperate attempt to bail out his campaign. Speaker Nancy Pelosi knows the truth: @TeamPelosi

Derrick was a true professional and kind to boot. He loved the DMV and the privilege of reporting in his home town. I am honored to have known him. My prayers go out to Derrick’s family and his @nbcwashington family.

My heart is broken by the loss of my friend. Derrick greeted everyone with a welcoming smile and a warm laugh. He was a dedicated dad, a wonderful colleague, a stellar journalist, and a gifted guitar player. Prayers to his children and loving family 🙏🏽

Meeting Ms. Giovanni as a sophomore was a highlights of my time at Wake Forest. She was/is one of my favorite poets. I met her again as a member of Congress and had the honor of sharing how her writing impacted me, especially my work on domestic violence. @donnafern.bsky.social

Yawn…talkers ignore actual facts. Facts: half of the working class are women, a majority of whom are Black, Hispanic and other women of color. 45% of the working class are Black, Hispanic and other POC. These workers barely survive and work in the low-wage service sector.

A lot of conclusions being drawn about the election. Democrats should take a beat. Stop the circular firing squad. Dismiss the “hot takes,” and get some real data before deciding how to “fix” things. Take a hard look at race, misogyny, transphobia pretending to be inflation.

After church I had my Sunday coffee at the historic Fort Washington Park. On the banks of the Potomac, the park was the last sentry protecting the nation’s capital from 1809-WWII. TY ⁦⁦@NationalParkSer⁩ for preserving history in my neighborhood.

My car told me to get an oil change. My go/to place since 1987 closed. I reluctantly, skeptically found @jiffylube in Oxon Hill, MD. What a treat: The most polite young people ever! Opened my door, addressed me with respect, assisted me with my cane to the door. What a treat!!

Today, we lost the heart of our family, our Mom. She taught us to live, to love, to work hard, and to always walk in the shoes of others. She earned her nickname, “Sunshine” — she smiled with her eyes and never an unkind word. We miss you, Mom. You earned your wings. 💕💕
