Is anyone surprised that Republicans don’t have the spine to stand up to Convicted Felon Donald Trump? Fear of a primary opponent overrules doing the right thing every time.

Congress gave themselves a raise.
Then told America it couldn’t afford insulin.
They’ll fund oil subsidies and war machines… but not your grandmother’s wheelchair.

Republicans snuck in a backdoor abortion ban in their “Big, Ugly Betrayal.”
It defunds Planned Parenthood and threatens coverage for comprehensive reproductive care from state ACA marketplaces.
It’s a direct assault on women’s healthcare in America.

It’s Tuesday. Is there a censure vote planned for Sen. Mike Lee that I might have missed?
📌 The censure vote on Al Green was 2 days after Trump’s SOTU address.

Rounding up people at Home Depot looking for day work and small local restaurants means you're not raiding the factories, meat packing plants, and job sites of big Republican donors.

ICE is a much greater threat to this country than illegal immigrants. The current administration ia by far the greatest threat this country faces. The problem is not st our borders. It is in the White House.

We’ve been in touch with local law enforcement in LA. They have the resources they need to meet the moment, and we stand ready to assist should the need arise.
There is no emergency and the President’s order calling in the National Guard is unnecessary and counterproductive.

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.
Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

It’s interesting that ICE is not conducting raids on the farms and slaughterhouses in South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska etc. where 86% of the workers are undocumented… I wonder if Kristi Noem, as former governor of South Dakota, has an answer…

This administration will twist facts...dodge questions...and smear reputations....anything to avoid saying the one honest thing about Kilmar Abrego Garcia:

The arrogance is staggering...and the damage they’re doing to justice is unforgivable.

In an act of integrity and resistance, a supervisor in the Nashville federal prosecutor’s office resigned over how the Abrego Garcia case was being handled. The charges are bogus, pure political theater meant to justify a wrongful abduction.
