I'm so glad Rep Casten is in Congress.
If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

I love how these Republicans are once again promoting the SAVE Act. A bill that’s completely unconstitutional. It makes it harder for women and minorities to vote. But, furthermore, this will never pass. The Senate doesn’t have the votes.

Congress will not do what must be done. We must force them. Can we see that a rep. republic only represents those who control the revolving door? This has been true for the last 2,500 years.

This morning ICE attempted to enter into the Ecuadorian consulate on Central Ave but were barred from entering. I spoke with Ambassador Yanez this afternoon and they want to make sure the Ecuadorian community knows it’s still safe to come to the consulate.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

There is A LOT of misinformation going around about the continued funding of ICE.
It ISN'T a done deal.
Yes, it passed in the House, but the Senate hasn't taken it up yet.
That's the way this shit works.
CONTACT YOUR SENATOR NOW AND TELL THEM TO VOTE THIS FUNDING DOWN.

I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.
