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.

The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
 
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

It's time for Chuck Schumer to go as minority leader.

It's not just about voting yes on the CR. If you can't get the majority of your party to vote together, you are failing your job.

He's not meeting the moment. We need a fighter, not someone who will give up the only piece of leverage we have

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

The CR passed in the House will provide a blank check for Trump and Musk to continue their savage war against working families, the elderly, children, the sick and the poor in order to lay the groundwork for massive tax breaks for billionaires.

This is a bill I cannot support.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Veterans deserve the best health care available. At a time when the VA is already understaffed, these layoffs will hurt veterans. Unacceptable.

Trump must not cut VA health care so that he can give tax breaks to Musk and other billionaires.

The VA must rescind this order.

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

I voted to reject RFK Jr.'s nomination to HHS.

I cannot in good conscience support someone who denies and will dilute our public health protections, sow distrust in science, and oversee massive cuts to health care programs for vulnerable Americans.

Poverty is a policy choice.
What a chart...
The US share of single moms (19%) is actually pretty similar to many other advanced economy nations.

What is different? = US child poverty (20%) is way higher than other nations.

American workers are more than 400% more productive than they were in the 1940s.

But all of the economic gains are going straight to the top.

Workers deserve more.

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.

Income gains for the middle class have evaporated since the 1980s. What's changed?

Massive tax cuts for the rich each decade!

Whether the cuts be from Reagan, Bush, or Trump, we can confidently say after 40 years that trickle down economics was a farce.

Fair wages for a fair future!

During the recent campaign Donald Trump proposed a 10% cap on credit card interest rates. Great idea. Let’s see if he supports the legislation that I will introduce to do just that.

Trump’s team claimed that their tax cuts would boost household income by $4,000.

But research shows that the lowest paid workers saw no change in earnings. Meanwhile, exec salaries increased sharply.

Trump and Republicans want to double down on yet another trickle-down scam.
