  • Dem Rep. Moulton: Israel Shouldn’t ‘Escalate the Conflict’ by Moving Against Hezbollah in Lebanon

    On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “The Hill,” Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) stated that Israel shouldn’t start another war by moving “against Hezbollah in Lebanon to dramatically escalate the conflict to the north.” Moulton said, “[W]e absolutely do not want to do anything that might escalate this into a regional war. That’s not in our national security interests to get bogged down in a war in the Middle East, potentially sending American troops. And it’s not, frankly, in Israel’s national security interests either. So, behind the scenes, we’re doing what we can to tamp this down and say enough is enough,...
  • 2 Congress members fly to Kabul amid choatic evacuation

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Two members of Congress flew unannounced into Kabul airport in the middle of the ongoing chaotic evacuation Tuesday, stunning State Department and U.S. military personnel who had to divert resources to provide security and information to the lawmakers, U.S. officials said. Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., and Rep. Peter Meijer, R-Mich., flew in and out on charter aircraft and were on the ground at the Kabul airport for several hours. That led officials to complain that they could be taking seats that would have otherwise gone to other Americans or Afghans fleeing the country, but the congressmen said...
  • Moulton: We’re Depending on the Taliban ‘to Keep Americans Safe,’ If People Can’t Get to Airport, ‘Tens of Thousands’ Will Be Stuck

    On Wednesday’s broadcast of “CNN Newsroom,” Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) stated that after going to war against the Taliban, “we’re relying on that same Taliban to keep Americans safe,” and “to not start massacring people today.” And he doesn’t see how America will be able to get its allies out of Afghanistan. Moulton stated, “We went into Afghanistan 20 years ago. Because the Taliban harbored the terrorists that attacked us on 9/11. And now we’re relying on that same Taliban to keep Americans safe, to keep American citizens — they estimate between 10 and 15,000 American citizens are still in...
  • Ocasio-Cortez, Gillibrand and Moulton call for more high-speed rail funding in infrastructure package (only 9.62 years left)

    Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) on Wednesday called on Congress to increase funding for high-speed rail in the infrastructure package. President Biden's $2.3 trillion infrastructure proposal invests $80 billion in rail projects, but industry experts say that money will mostly be spent on updating existing Amtrak lines rather than building new high-speed railways. Biden's plan includes far more funding for roads, bridges and electric cars than public transit. "Rail is climate infrastructure," Ocasio-Cortez said at a press conference Wednesday. "For every buck that we're going to put into a car and a...

    U.S. Rep. Seth Moulton is taking flak for suggesting that “we” Northeasterners think the populations of conservative “red states” are “getting what’s coming to them” with a surge in coronavirus cases. Moulton waved away criticism of his statements late Thursday as “cheap shots,” but others said they expected more from the former presidential candidate.

The North Adams City Council on Tuesday is bringing forward a resolution to censure Councilor Robert Moulton following his comments last week about Black Lives Matter, the coronavirus and other city issues. “It seems like that’s this month’s flavor. It’s a terrorist organization,” Moulton said of Black Lives Matter on the local public access television program “Let’s Talk About It.” “They want to get rid of the family.” Moulton also called...
  • Inslee Out. Moulton Out. De Blasio? Town Hall May Be Last Gasp.

    NYT ^ | Aug. 23, 2019 Updated 10:29 a.m. ET | By Jeffery C. Mays
    Trailing badly in the polls and in fund-raising for 2020, Mayor Bill de Blasio hopes that an hour on CNN Sunday before the nation’s voters can change his standing. He’s entrenched toward the rear in fund-raising totals. He rejects the validity of the various polls showing him at zero percent. And he also acknowledges that he will probably not qualify for the third Democratic presidential debate next month. Yet Mayor Bill de Blasio refuses to “accept the premise” of questions about the wisdom of his continued candidacy, even as other candidates who shared his political standing, like Gov. Jay Inslee...

    If Fox News were really interested in payback, it would have offered Elizabeth Warren’s spurned television town hall meeting spot to fellow Massachusetts presidential candidate Seth Moulton. The congressman from Salem, far behind in the overcrowded field of 24 candidates running for the Democrat nomination for president, would have snapped it up in a New York second. Such an appearance might have helped Moulton make the cut and qualify for participation in the first two- night Democrat Party sponsored television debate in Miami June 26-27

    Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) has joined the long list of Democrats who’ve entered the 2020 presidential race. “I’m running for President to build a strong and safe country, create the jobs of the future, and elect leaders we can be proud of,” the former Marine said on Twitter Monday morning. "I'm running because we have to beat Donald Trump, and I want us to beat Donald Trump because I love this country. We've never been a country that gets everything right. But we're a country that, at our best, thinks that we might," he said in his video announcement. “Decades...

    As clunky, repetitive and miscellaneous as Biden’s rallying cry was, what is more striking is that he was eating Elizabeth Warren’s lunch in her home state. Biden might as well have mentioned the “ragged middle class.” The previous Friday, it was Warren out on the picket line in Somerville, delivering coffee and doughnuts to the striking workers and extolling the virtues of unions and working people. Stop & Shop, the senator said, “wants to squeeze our workers right here in Massachusetts.” Now it is undeclared frontrunner Biden who has effectively squeezed out Warren right here in Massachusetts, and made it...

    Sorry, Seth, but the Democrats have now fully embraced the S-word they previously avoided so that means the Bolshevik wing of the party, along with their media allies, is purging mere Mensheviks such as yourself. In the wake of Democratic Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez upset victory against an establishment Democrat on Tuesday, a reckoning is now taking place against those perceived as even slightly less than full radical. Among those apparently being slammed for their supposed moderation, despite a straight liberal voting pattern, is Democrat Congressman Seth Moulton.  Enabling poor Seth's purge from what are now mainstream Democrats is HuffPost reporter Daniel Marans with his June...

    Democratic lawmaker Rep. Seth Moulton from Massachusetts said he would not be participating in the moment of silence on the House floor for the innocent Americans killed in the mass shooting in Las Vegas Monday. As previously reported, a crazed shooter slaughtered over 50 people Sunday night at a Las Vegas country western concert in a mass shooting.Another 400 people were injured. The Las Vegas shooter was identified as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock from Mesquite, Nevada.Instead of saying a prayer for the victims with the leaders of our country, the Dem lawmaker argued that Congress should instead be taking action on more gun...

    Democrat congressman, Seth Moulton, defiantly announced that he WILL NOT participate in the House of Representatives moment of silence for the victims in Las Vegas. Moulton explains his disgusting actions by saying that now is a time for action, not silence. In truth, it’s completely disrespectful towards the victims and he should be ashamed of himself. The Massachusetts Democrat appeared to be protesting inaction to pass gun control legislation. Moulton also did not participate in a moment of silence in honor of the victims of the 2016 Orlando night club shooting, which killed 49 people. In the aftermath of the...

    He has won praise from a neoconservative magazine editor, taken star turns on HBO and “This American Life,” and likened President Trump’s political ascendance to that of Adolf Hitler. Just months into his second term, Representative Seth Moulton has demonstrated a knack for drawing attention. Now he is stirring speculation that he could run for higher office in three years — not just the US Senate, the frequent path of congressmen, but for the White House, a direct route from the House to the top job not taken since James A. Garfield in 1880.

    MADISON — Four Republican state senators targeted for recall are expected to submit their challenges to the signatures that could result in voiding any elections. Today is the deadline for the senators to make any challenges to petitions filed with the Government Accountability Board. Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald has said he plans on challenging enough to stop the recall election against him. The other three senators haven't said how many signatures they will challenge. Those targeted senators are Van Wanggaard of Racine, Terry Moulton of Chippewa Falls and Pam Galloway of Wausau. Once submitted, it's then up to the...

    MADISON — At an average rate of 2.7 signatures entered every second, Wisconsin’s recall petition vetting effort appears to be humming inside the Verify the Recall network. And a top official with the tea party-backed initiative said the review of hundreds of thousands of petitions to date has found numerous invalid signatures — validity issues that could spell problems for the campaign to recall Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, the group contends. Verify the Recall, a joint venture of the Wisconsin GrandSons of Liberty and We the People of the Republic, tea party organizations aligned with fiscal conservative movements, bills...
