I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Chris Van Hollen isn’t playing games. If Kilmar Garcia isn’t released by midweek, he’s flying to El Salvador himself to demand answers.

This is the kind of bold, no-BS leadership we need right now.

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

GOP reps love your vote, but not your voice. They’re dodging town halls faster than Trump dodged the draft. Demand answers!

Someone, who used to know better, told me today that it’s patriotic to support the president even if you don’t always agree. This is the excuse being used by many to explain their acquiescence. Actually, this is what a patriot is: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/u...

What percent of MAGA (including the children working with Elon) do you think know that US Aid is spent on AMERICAN PRODUCTS? Except Israel has a 75 percent waiver, and they spared that aid

Musk’s allies were granted access to the U.S. Treasury payment system.

Treasury stays silent.

White House stays silent.

Why the secrecy? Time for an explanation and full transparency.

No one elected Elon Musk.

As Donald Trump allows Musk to access people’s personal information and shut down government funding, Republicans in Washington will also own the consequences.

We must do everything in our power to push back and protect people from harm.
