Denver’s Capitol Hill neighborhood has been named one of the top 5 best LGBTQ-friendly neighborhoods in the country. The historic neighborhood has served as a safe gathering place for LGBTQ+ Denver residents for decades. It’s also home to several Denver Pride events this month, including the Denver Pride Parade on June 28.
If it’s a day that ends in y, it’s another day that Trump court of appeals nominees can't answer basic questions like who won the 2020 election.
This UFC spectacle at the White House, dripping with corporate sponsors and pay-to-play billions is crass corruption. While families struggle to afford groceries, rent, and healthcare, we’re watching Trump play Gatsby on the People’s lawn. This grift must end. We deserve better.
The Kennedy Center is for the people. Another important win in the courts.
Gas prices are soaring. Grocery prices are skyrocketing. Utility prices are increasing. What are Republicans and trump focused on? Tax breaks for private jets. November is coming.
Matt Stoller@matthewstollerRepublicans are trying to exempt private jet owners from paying taxes. Ladies and gentlemen, right-wing populism!
We have NEVER supported insider trading as a member of Congress and we've supported legislation to ban it. If you’re using public office to build your stock portfolio, you have no business serving the American people. We work for the people, not to get rich off of them. Find a new profession. This is Capitol Hill, not Wall Street.
This week in Congress, I introduced the Tax Dollar Accountability Act. It’s simple: any state, local, or municipal entity that receives federal funding will have to submit to an AUTOMATIC ANNUAL AUDIT. I am in the arena fighting to protect your tax dollars from fraud and abuse. As Governor, I’ll continue the work to DOGE Florida and eliminate fraud in our great state.
Dark money loopholes are undermining our democracy. I’m teaming up with @RepDeluzio to clean up a rigged system with our SHINE Act. We’re taking on special interests distorting our politics.
Dear @DavidSacks: Anthropic states the capability at issue is used by cyber defenders. Anthropic also states other models such as ChatGPT 5.5 have the same capability. Do you agree?
David Sacks@DavidSacksI’ve had a number of conversations with folks inside and outside government about the current situation with Anthropic, and here is what I believe to be true: — As we know, Anthropic publicly released its Mythos class models earlier this week under the commercial name Fable. — Fable is Mythos with guardrails. But if those guardrails fail, then you’ve exposed Mythos and its advanced cyber capabilities to people who shouldn’t have them. (Keep in mind that Anthropic itself widely promoted the idea that Mythos was a cyberweapon and needed to be regulated as such. They asked for government regulation of Mythos and championed the guardrails on Fable. If there is a vulnerability — big or small — it is Anthropic’s responsibility to patch.) — A highly credible trusted partner of both Anthropic and the USG who was testing Fable came forward with a jailbreak of those guardrails. The Admin asked Dario to fix the jailbreak or de-deploy the model. Dario refused. — In their blog post, Anthropic defended its decision by saying the jailbreak isn’t serious. That is not what the trusted partner and the USG believe; nor is that kind of minimizing language consistent with Anthropic’s brand as the AI safety company. It’s difficult to fathom how they could claim a jailbreak allowing operability of a cyber weapon could be defined as not “serious.” — In the past, Anthropic has always said that safety must be top priority and taken super seriously. In this case, Anthropic prioritized the continued offering of the consumer model over safety. — In reaction, the Admin issued the export control. The Admin did this reluctantly. It’s been very surprised that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to cooperate with a reasonable safety request (ie fixing the jailbreak issue). Anthropic’s reaction is very much at odds with their branding and ethos as a safe AI research community. — The Admin’s hope now is that Anthropic remediates the safety issue, the export control is lifted, and Fable goes back into general release. The Admin wants all of this to happen as soon as possible. It is frankly bewildered that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to comply with safety requests that it previously said were its highest priority. — Those trying to misdirect and tie this action to the prior DoW/Anthropic issues are wrong. The Admin values Anthropic’s technical capabilities and feels that this issue, while serious, should be easily resolved. The ball is in Anthropic’s court.
As the White House hosts a UFC event on June 14, we’re reminded that Theodore Roosevelt brought his own fighting spirit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Theodore Roosevelt often boxed and wrestled inside the White House, once suffering a permanent eye injury during a sparring match. He carried that same toughness into conservation, as he fought to preserve federal lands for the benefit and use of all Americans.
True. I’d also rather put money in a pile & light it on fire…instead of spending it to sterilize & castrate children. You people are nuts & there’s nothing “affirming” about what you’re doing to kids.
Defiant L’s@DefiantLsMayor Michelle Wu goes after the Trump admin, "They would rather remodel the White House ballroom than fund the gender-affirming healthcare that saves young people's lives."
It has been 100 days of this war in Iran and President Trump keeps telling us the war is “finished,” “very close to having a deal,” “essentially won.” How many times must we hear “just a little longer” while lives are lost, costs soar, and instability grows? op: @thedailyshow
Congratulations to the Town of Sweden on the dedication of its new fire station. This modern, safe, and spacious facility will help ensure Sweden’s brave volunteer firefighters are well equipped to continue serving and protecting this rural community. I was proud to secure $1.15 million to make this important project a reality.
Three of the five men arrested in Connecticut for trying to meet an UNDERAGE CHILD for sex were ILLEGAL ALIENS. These PEDOPHILES were released into our nation by the Biden Administration — and face charges for sexual abuse of a minor, attempt to commit sexual contact with a child under 16, and sexual assault. Connecticut sanctuary politicians must NOT RELEASE these monsters back into our communities to prey on more children.
Libs of TikTok@libsoftiktokEXCLUSIVE: DHS confirms to us that three men arrested in a Connecticut s*x sting operation for trying to meet with minors for s*x are ILLEGAL ALIENS who were released into our country by the Biden admin. Bruno Medina Mendoza, Peru Jorge Escobar Quispe, Peru Raul Echavez-Castro, Colombia ICE has lodged detainer requests and are asking Connecticut Sanctuary politicians NOT to release them back onto the streets. Mendoza has a criminal history that includes arrests for assault and child neglect, while Castro’s criminal history includes an arrest for disturbing public peace.

Fight night energy is taking over DC. UFC Freedom 250 is almost here. 🇺🇸
Dear @ICEgov: Your out of control agency has killed people. Your personnel will be investigated. And if the facts warrant it, a future Administration will prosecute your personnel who violated the law. November is coming.
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@ReichlinMelnickOh my god. A SECOND person died of exposure last winter after being released by DHS in the middle of the winter and far away from where they lived.
Normal people want to be able to purchase a home, have a low cost of living, and for their kids to be safe. Democrats don’t deliver ANY of that. They just fight for illegal aliens.
I'm proud to represent the third largest Haitian diaspora in the country. It's great to have the Haiti National Football Team in Massachusetts and in the FIFA World Cup. Best of luck to them on the field today as they return to the World Cup after 52 years.
Great to see President @SantiPenap of Paraguay today and to talk about the progress we’ve made to make our hemisphere safer and more prosperous. 🇺🇸🇵🇾⚽️
Met with Moldovan civil society leaders fighting Russian disinformation and defending democracy. They're doing this tough work with shrinking resources after U.S. funding ran out. This is exactly where American leadership matters and withdrawing now is a mistake.
700 Pennsylvanians are headed to the World Cup for free because @FWC26Philly and I made sure these worthy organizations got to take their staff, students, and volunteers. This one really brought a smile to my face. This is what it’s all about.
This FBI has been preparing for months to keep players, fans, and visitors safe during @FIFAWorldCup 2026. SSA Meghan from @FBIBoston shares about the work that goes into securing large special events, and the FBI steps up to the challenge of emerging threats from drone technology.
Jarell turned to alcohol and drugs in an attempt to cope with his trauma. Learn how mental health treatment, recovery groups, his faith, and boxing helped him heal:
The US is supposed to be welcoming people from across the globe for the World Cup. But thanks to Trump’s racist travel ban, Omar Abdulkadir Artan, a Somali referee, was denied entry to the country. This xenophobia is unacceptable.

Congratulations @USMNT on a historic victory last night! The FIFA Fan Zone is at @NationalMallNPS throughout the World Cup as Americans come together to cheer on Team USA!
Nonconsensual sharing of intimate images destroys lives. Careers. Relationships. And until now, the law has not done enough to stop it. Deepfake porn. Sextortion. Voyeurism. Revenge porn. We introduced the VANISH (Victimizer Accountability for Nonconsensual Images and Spiteful Humiliation) Act to address these issues head on. The VANISH Act puts victims first, holds predators accountable, and sends a clear message: if you exploit someone, there will be consequences. We will always stand up for women and victims who deserve justice. Hold the line.
Kentucky is home to over 300 dairy farms, 45,000 milking cows and hundreds of hardworking farm families who support our economy and our way of life. During Dairy Month, let's recognize and celebrate our dairy farmers and everything they do for us.
.@SecScottBessent is right, the Trump Administration understands: American Energy Dominance means American Worker Dominance 🇺🇸
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent@SecScottBessent.@POTUS is creating the conditions for families and businesses to prosper. Our economic strategy rests on three distinct, but mutually reinforcing levers of tax, trade, and deregulation. Beneath each of these priorities is a layer that binds them all: the doctrine of energy dominance. Energy is the foundational layer of all economic activity and the fuel of human flourishing. Energy dominance is back. The age of managed decline is over. And we are just getting started.
Last week, I joined @RepVanOrden at Gilbertson Farms in El Mound, Wisconsin, to celebrate National Dairy Month and President Trump's signing of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act. This commonsense legislation brings whole milk back to our schools and gives children access to the nutritious foods they need to grow and thrive. Drink Whole Milk. Eat Real Food.
