We are suing to block the federal government takeover of DC police.
By illegally declaring a takeover of MPD, the Administration is abusing its temporary, limited authority under the law.
This is the gravest threat to Home Rule DC has ever faced, and we are fighting to stop it.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

Vital services and protections for everyday Americans are being gutted thanks to DOGE.
And this is happening in exchange for renewing one of the biggest tax cuts in American history that will predominantly benefit people like...you guessed it...Elon Musk.

Love this. @tanaytatum.bsky.social is out with another good analysis following the money to identify mispriced risk for investors.
Between 2019 and 2023, GEO Group generated over $10B+ in revenue from Immigration & Customs Enforcement contracts. Today, my team and I released a list of 10 companies with the most significant vendor relationships with the agency, representing over $28B in taxpayer-dollar expenses.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.
