Kidnap the President's daughter for human trafficking aboard a luxury yacht? Only a very, very powerful oligarch would do such a thing, just to get under the President's skin, if not use her for his own personal pleasure. Now available for under $5, and with a 5/5 rating! 👍 #booksky 📚💙

#booksky 📚💙 "Stones" was published just before the Ukraine war started and Jefferey Epstein and his yacht for human trafficking became known! 4.8/5 stars on Amazon!

"Alligator Alcatraz" should instead be called "The Everglades Concentration Camp," in due reference to its predecessor in Hitler's concentration camps. "Alligator Alcatraz” is just too cute for something so horrific and dehumanizing as this new facility is.

Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

Trump may not know whether he has to uphold the Constitution during his presidency, but hundreds of Vermont lawyers do know. 

I congratulate them, and thousands of lawyers throughout the country, who are fighting to uphold American democracy and the rule of law.
Vermont Lawyers Rally for the Rule of Law in the Age of Trump
Vermonters have frequently protested the president's actions this year. But this is the first time in memory that Vermont's lawyers demonstrated en masse.

In America, you have a right to due process. Without it, the government could arrest or deport you for any reason. That’s what is happening in America right now. That is what dictators do. And that is what we are fighting against.

Thank YOU for coming out!

This is exactly why we do this.

One objective of these rallies has been for people in red and swing areas to start seeing and finding one another. There is power in numbers.

We also bring local organizers onstage to speak and highlight local issues. It’s been great 💜
Thank you for coming to Bakersfield! I didn't know there were so many of us here so I thank you for making the rally a very safe place for those afraid to wear their Blue loudly and proudly, you & Bernie were amazing!

RFK is a walking nightmare and ironically, the direct cause of the impending decline in "Health and Human Services."
This is disrespectful and a flat out lie that further stigmatizes autism. It’s not a virus or a disease - it’s a neurological condition with a wide spectrum. Many Americans with autism work, pay taxes, and are living happy and healthy lives.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination.

He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech.

Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin.

So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process.

Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release.

Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next?

This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador.

Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov
Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen is demanding a meeting with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele over the detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and says he’ll go to El Salvador himself if the Marylander isn’t returned.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
