“I won’t spend money on transportation infrastructure to make Americans’ lives better unless you name buildings after me” is a level of narcissism and corruption rarely seen, and it makes Trump sound like a big baby.

This is yet another hostile attack in the Trump Administration’s relentless war against our civil service.

They want to make it easier to fire qualified public servants so they can replace them with MAGA sycophants who serve Donald Trump above the law and the American people.
Exclusive: Roughly 50,000 federal workers would be easier to discipline or fire under a new Trump rule that reclassifies swaths of the government workforce.

A rule expected to be completed on Thursday would create a government-employee category that offers fewer job protections.

The Trump Administration’s reckless foreign aid cuts are already undoing decades of progress, leading to surges in HIV/AIDS, malaria and hunger across the developing world.

Studies project this massive aid loss could lead to 9.4 million deaths by 2030.

Proud to see @abigailspanberger.com end 287(g) in Virginia.

Our law enforcement should be focused on their vital missions, not distracted by the Trump Administration's chaotic, violent, and indiscriminate immigration enforcement which only makes our communities less safe.
Gov Spanberger has directed Virginia’s state law enforcement agencies to end 287g agreements with ICE, saying the agreements "improperly cede accountability and discretion over VA law enforcement" to the feds.

I love the Washington Post. I've been a subscriber for many years.

The Post’s coverage has enriched my life and is indispensable to my work as a policymaker.

I think I speak for many when I say it is heartbreaking to watch Jeff Bezos run the Washington Post into the ground.

Alex Pretti wasn't killed by rhetoric, he was killed by two masked CBP agents shooting him 10 times in the back after they had disarmed and pepper sprayed him.

Rhetoric didn't kill Renee Good either, a thug from ICE did that with a gun as she tried to avoid hurting him.
Homan: "I said back in March of this year [sic] that if the hateful rhetoric didn't stop I was afraid there would be bloodshed. And there has been."

This Black History Month, I’m thinking about leaders like Barbara Johns, who fought to make our country live up to its highest ideals. Her courage as a student in segregated Virginia helped spark the end of school segregation.

Her legacy deserves its place in the U.S. Capitol.

Congress must stop the lawlessness in Minnesota and across the country, with DHS breaking the law, ignoring the Constitution, committing violent acts and even murder.

No secret police. Transparency and accountability aren’t optional. Masks OFF, body cameras ON, ID on demand.

Speaker Johnson is lying.

He knows that counting mail votes is not “magic” or “fraudulent,” it is following the law.

Echoing these lies shows how beholden Johnson is to the Liar In Chief, but the Speaker of the House should be above such awful behavior.

This is disgraceful.
Mike Johnson on Trump calling for Rs to "nationalize" elections: "We had 3 Republicans who were ahead on election day in last cycle & every time a new tranche of ballots came in they just magically whittled away until their leads were lost. It looks on its face to be fraudulent. Can I prove it? No"

For decades, START has reduced the risk on nuclear conflict. We must extend this treaty and prioritize efforts to prevent the possibility of a nuclear showdown. This shouldn’t be a partisan issue.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in American history and it is not remotely close.
Four days before Trump’s inauguration, lieutenants to an Abu Dhabi royal secretly signed a deal w/the Trump family to buy a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial for $500M, according to docs & people familiar. The buyer paid half up front, steering $187M to Trump entities.

Without identification there is no accountability.

We are seeing the consequences of that over and over again in American communities, with officers engaging in violence, violations of rights, and even murder.

We don’t do secret police in America — the masks must come off.
Mike Johnson on unmasking ICE agents: "It would create further danger ... taking the mask off and putting their names and addresses on their uniforms -- I don't think the president would approve it and he shouldn't"

Trump’s co-opted Justice Department is arresting Georgia Fort and Don Lemon to intimidate journalists out of reporting the news while turning a blind eye to federal agents murdering American citizens.

It’s appalling, and part of a larger assault on the First Amendment.

Alex Pretti doesn't have "stock," he isn't alive. CBP agents shot him in the back 10 times and killed him after disarming and pepper spraying him because he tried to protect a woman they were assaulting.

The Director of National Intelligence is a serious, taxpayer-funded position created after 9/11 to coordinate efforts to keep Americans safe.

Tulsi Gabbard is instead serving as Trump’s personal clown, chasing his lies and crackpot conspiracy theories.

This is a scandal.
New: Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, is leading an administration-wide effort to probe the 2020 election for fraud and regularly briefing Trump and top White House officials on her progress. Officials are discussing EOs on voting ahead of midterms.

It wasn’t enough for Stephen Miller that these American citizens were murdered by ICE and CBP, he had to slander them with lies after their deaths.

Miller is a deranged, bloodthirsty bigot, and his policies put lives at risk every day he remains in power.
