RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES! Per the LA Times, Jeffrey Epstein wrote in private emails that Trump “spent hours at my house” & “knew about the girls”! Americans have a right to know about who is in the Epstein Files, the criminal conduct, implications, & corruption! No more SHIELDING of PREDATORS!

🧵Last summer Trump said his falling out with Epstein was over Epstein's hiring away of young women from the Mar A Lago spa. In the email to Michael Wolff released today, from 2019, Epstein says he was never a member and the reasoning Trump gave then was false.

Of course, the Trump-Epstein...

If you are a constituent of Kaine, Shaheen, Hassan or Rosen, let them know exactly how you feel about voting on the new bill! They work for you—time to remind them! 202-224-3121.
Our calls & outrage are working! Sen Kaine, Rosen, Shaneen & Hassan said if they hear from more of their constituents, they could change their votes from a yes to a no. Rs may not be voting for this bill also, so call your R senators too. Keep the phone calls coming bc it’s working! 202-224-3121

The administration had asked the justices last week to intervene and temporarily halt the requirement to fully fund SNAP, but that move ultimately didn’t change the outcome.
Trump administration cannot withhold full funding for food aid, US appeals court rules
A federal appeals court late on Sunday allowed a judge's order to stand that directs U.S. President Donald Trump's administration to fully fund this month's food aid benefits for 42 million low-income Americans during the ongoing U.S. government shutdown.

If Congress gets to the point of voting on a bill to reopen the government, Mike Johnson will have to bring the House back in session. So that means he’ll swear in Adelina Grijalva, right? What’s gonna be his new excuse not to?

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.

What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.

We're paying for the torture of children.

I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

We had all the momentum

•The American people were blaming Republicans

•A landslide Democratic victory

•Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us

It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Time to step down
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

They do not support the concept of a fundamental right to healthcare. They sold the American people out. They must be primaried and stay gone.

Chuck Schumer too.

Senate Republicans are daring Democrats to cave. Don’t. Rosen, Baldwin, Kelly, Ossoff, Peters, Durbin, Hassan, Shaheen, King, Fetterman—hold the line. Don’t sell out working families for a headline. Demand a full reopening and real relief. Don’t cave

Congress just dropped a so-called “minibus” deal to end the 40-day shutdown but it’s a surrender disguised as progress.

It funds veterans and agriculture but abandons the 20 million Americans who rely on ACA subsidies for health care.

A Band-Aid won’t fix a bleeding nation.

Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi forever changed history. 💙

The first woman (and only one) to hold the gavel—she led with unmatched courage, brilliance, and grace. She paved the way for leaders like Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, and AOC.

Our nation thanks you, Madam Speaker. 🙏
