My episode of the DNC’s Daily Blueprint show just dropped

Team, This week, I was on The Democratic National Committee’s new YouTube show, the Daily Blueprint. You can watch my episode here. We talk about everything from the role of creepy billionaires in our politics to Trump’s Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill to climate change. And yes, I’ve b…

Hear me out:

I’ll be honest, folks: I’m livid. And that’s not a statement I make lightly. The Trump administration is taking its marching orders from a fringe conspiracy theorist who’s associated with white supremacists and 9/11 denialism – and it’s directly undermining our career intelligence professionals…

It’s official, I’m running for Senate

I’m stepping up for Mississippi, not because it’s easy, but because too much is on the line to sit on the sidelines. I’ve got an important announcement to share with you, team. My name is Scott Colom, and I’m a seventh-generation Mississippian running for U.S. Senate because I can no longer sit …

Republicans are messing with Social Security and Medicare​​.

Team, Last month, Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans jammed through their Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill, cutting almost 1 trillion dollars from Medicaid and raising health insurance costs on working people – all to bankroll tax breaks for billionaires and mega-corporations. Tho…

Here’s how the Supreme Court paved the way for Republicans to gerrymander Texas

Team, Donald Trump is behind a political pressure campaign to have Republicans in Texas and other states redraw the borders of voting districts to help Republicans in the 2026 midterms. This scheme isn’t just happenstance​​. It was manufactured. Congressional districts are typically redrawn o…

Today, I’m getting back in the fight.

​​I need your support from day one to win. Team, I never planned to run for office again. But when I see what’s happening in Washington, I know I can’t stand on the sidelines. D.C. politicians are raising prices, gutting health care, and rigging the system to benefit their wealthy donors and c…

Ted Cruz tried telling me dark money is a Democratic problem

He should put his (dark) money where his mouth is Team, In a recent Senate hearing, Senator Ted Cruz tried to tell me that dark money is a Democratic problem. Yes, really. Here’s what I told him about what’s actually going on: The national Republican Party has been bought and paid for by dar…

Two American triumphs

and yet Trump is pulling the rug out from under Medicare and Medicaid Team, Today marks the 60th birthday of Medicare and Medicaid, two great American triumphs. Millions of Americans have led longer, healthier, happier lives thanks to these two programs. Children can see doctors when they’re …

The climate fight continues

Team, I just left the Senate floor, where I gave my 300th speech calling for action to lead the planet to climate safety and shining a light on the creepy climate denial operation. Over the past 13 years, I’ve stood with a chart that reads “TIME TO WAKE UP.” I returned to the floor, no matter…

Billionaires and polluters just got their payday

Team, The Republican Senate majority just passed Donald Trump’s Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill. Simply put: this bill is a betrayal. It’s pretty stunning to see how far Republicans will go courting disaster for their own constituents, all to do the bidding of the billionaires and fossil…

Three years

Team, Three years ago today, after decades of scheming and millions of dollars in dark money, right-wing billionaires got what they wanted: a Supreme Court stacked with anti-abortion extremists – who, in a single decision, erased nearly 50 years of constitutional protections for women’s reprod…

Republicans’ big, beautiful-for-billionaires bill

Remember when they said they wouldn’t cut Medicare? Team, Remember when Republicans said they wouldn’t cut Medicare? Well, Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” that the House GOP just passed goes right at Medicare. Of course, Republicans tried to do it sneakily—here’s how: First, they add trillions…

What you can do today to counter President Trump

Team, Corrupt. Lawless. Chaotic. The Trump Administration enables the looters and polluters feeding themselves at the public trough, and bends our democracy to the breaking point. Remember: behind Trump are the creepy billionaires who captured our Supreme Court, corroded democracy with dark m…

Republicans are putting Medicaid on the chopping block

but Democrats are fighting back. Team, If you haven’t heard, Republicans in Congress are in the process of making a massive cut to Medicaid. Even as Trump and his subservient Republicans continue pretending that they don’t want to cut Medicaid, their own budget blueprint targets over $800 bill…

all the clues Republicans are trying to destabilize Social Security

Team, Wondering why you’ve heard so many lies out of Trump and Musk trying to discredit Social Security? Musk called Social Security a "Ponzi scheme." They've spread wild, debunked claims about fraudsters in the system. They've laid off thousands of workers who support the distribution of ben…

I’m tired and a little hoarse, but I cannot stay silent.

This is a moment where we must all speak up. Family, it’s Cory. Yesterday, I stepped off the Senate floor after speaking for over 25 hours straight — because I cannot stand idly by while Donald Trump and Elon Musk completely disregard the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the Ameri…

I just questioned America’s top intelligence officials

Folks, The Senate Intelligence Committee usually conducts its work behind closed doors in order to protect our nation’s secrets—but yesterday, we convened for a rare public hearing, where we questioned America’s top intelligence officials. Before I tell you more about the careless, incompetent…

Back in the fight.

Democrats need to hang together Team, Last week, I voted against the horrible MAGA “continuing resolution” – a cruel and partisan bill. But I want to be clear: Democrats, who are in the minority in both the House and Senate, had no good path here. Republicans jammed us with that fake CR to ma…
