Trump carried out military operations in Venezuela without congressional approval. He committed an illegal act of war while risking American lives — all while calling himself a “peace president.”
I strongly oppose this action.

In simpler terms, in Trump's economy the wealthy are spending at record rates—but working Americans are pulling back and paying for essentials on credit.
Perhaps Trump meant to say he'd bring about a "Gilded Age" instead of a "golden age."

All year long, Republicans in Congress had EVERY opportunity to lower health care costs. They failed—and tomorrow, millions of Americans will feel it.

@replamonica.bsky.social dutifully conducted oversight and stood up for her community.
Trying to silence her for doing her job sends the wrong message and would prevent her and other Members of Congress from holding the Trump Administration accountable.

Today I filed notice of appeal in my case.
From the beginning, I’ve fought back against this administration’s cruelty and attempts to silence dissent—this appeal is the next step in the fight.

ZERO job growth and workers living in fear of getting fired doesn’t sound like Trump’s promised “golden age of America.”
It sounds like he’s letting corporations pad their own bottom lines as his economy worsens, while leaving American families high and dry. www.wsj.com/economy/jobs...

Why does the President get to slap his name on a fleet of battleships—even though they’ve been obsolete since the Second World War—while Americans are struggling to pay for groceries?
President Trump’s name is being attached to a new class of U.S. battleships that will have nuclear capabilities.
Trump announces new class of U.S. battleships named after himself
The move comes amid outcry from Democrats after the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts affixed Trump's name to its sign in Washington.

While this keeps TikTok available to American users, it doesn't address national security concerns given ByteDance will still control the underlying algorithm.

Update: Republicans rejected my motion to subpoena Secretary Kennedy because they'd rather stick their heads in the sand than protect the health and safety of the American people.
Republicans are ignoring the harm Secretary Kennedy is doing while preventable diseases spread across the country.
If Republicans won’t do anything about it, I will. Today I’m motioning to subpoena RFK, Jr. to testify before @energycommerce.bsky.social to demand accountability.
