Today marks the 111th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. As we honor the 1.5 million Armenians murdered by the Ottoman Empire across modern-day Turkey, Syria, and Armenia, we must refuse to let history repeat itself.
In 2020, the military forces of Azerbaijan and Turkey attacked the Armenian population in Nagorno-Karabakh. In 2023, Azerbaijan expelled over 100,000 Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh, continuing the genocidal campaign that had begun over 100 years prior.
On this day of remembrance, we reaffirm the right of the Armenian people — and all people — to freedom, safety, and self-determination.

While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions of dollars. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.

We had a 100-0 bipartisan deal in the Senate and the House blew it up because the Republicans who run Congress apparently don’t talk to each other and prefer chaos.

#BREAKING: Lawrence: “…we can take them at their word. He said that. Donald Trump’s CLOWN of the day, Steve Witkoff says we can take Vladimir Putin’s word for it, that Russia has not been helping Iran target attacks on American military personnel.”😳😂

This week, John Oliver breaks down the gutting of USAID, highlighting the catastrophic impact. Is it a "scam" or a vital lifeline? The numbers suggest the latter, with devastating consequences for vulnerable populations worldwide! youtu.be/tU8S13xYJNM?si=yyjY…

All of Trump's arguments for striking Iran and setting the world on fire are nonsense.
Air strikes - no matter how deadly - have zero history of creating democracies or eradicating the knowledge necessary for nuclear weapons.

The Christian presence in Jerusalem is under attack. If we don't stand united now, we will lose our presence here.

The pardons Trump is handing out are a huge, growing scandal that not enough people are talking about. This is a money making operation - for for Trump, his family, his crypto pals, and the Trump-affiliated lobbyists and grifters who the pardon seekers pay.

You took $600,000 in bribes from Azerbaijan – one of the world's most corrupt regimes – and worked on its behalf to block aid to Armenians suffering as a result of Azerbaijan's aggression.
The only House you should be serving time in is the jailhouse.

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.
In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

In New Hampshire last night, I talked candidly about how Senate Democrats need to do better to meet this moment of crisis.
And I asked a simple, hard question: what do Democrats do, when Trump weaponizes our compassion against us, as a means to destroy our democracy?
