We have the receipts. The numbers don't lie. The Trump admin has threatened $22B in funds to Medicaid, schools, food assistance, law enforcement, and more in NJ. Thanks to our lawsuits, millions of people are protected. Proud of the fight we're winning for every New Jerseyan.

This is what political violence looks like. Governor Josh Shapiro is a father and husband whose family was nearly burned alive hours after hosting Passover Seder. Many who claim to care about antisemitism are awfully silent now. If you can't condemn this, you're part of the problem.

This has been as fun of a NEW YORK KNICKS run as I’ve had in my life. We didn’t win it all, but my son gained a lifelong hero in Jalen Brunson. We will be back. My prediction: Thunder in 5. And please never let Reggie Miller near a mic ever again.

Praying for the victims and families of all those impacted by the devastating terror attack in Boulder, CO. This act of antisemitism and hateful violence is intolerable.

I condemn in the strongest terms the targeted shootings of two elected officials and their spouses in Minnesota. Political violence is an attack on our democracy. Impersonating law enforcement to carry it out is sickening. The perpetrator must be brought to justice.
