No way will I attend the White House dinner with this President.
I’m standing with @govwesmoore.bsky.social and @colorado.gov — and standing against Trump’s corruption and hatred.
And I’m calling on my Republican colleagues to do the same.

Senator, may I suggest you read the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
It is not what we want, but what is required by the supreme law of the land.

There’s some shady shit going on with Trump’s “Freedom 250."
Taxpayer dollars are being rerouted into a Trump-branded scheme where big donors get access to the president, history gets whitewashed, and money is moved with no oversight.
It's looking more and more like pay-to-play wrapped in a flag.

Trump's Tariffs are a national sales tax - taxation without representation.
New research shows Trump’s tariffs quietly cost the average family about $1,000 last year, rising to $1,300 this year if they stay in place.
That’s a hidden tax on groceries, cars, and everyday goods. #TrumpflationSucks
