Having now watched the footage and interview two of the members who were there, the amount of armed, masked federal agents surrounding three members of Congress and a mayor outside the ICE facility was totally unnecessary; the only possible reason for it was intentional escalation and intimidation.

While House Republicans are trying to slash crucial research and health care funding, I’m standing alongside survivors like Tammy Myers, who is here in Washington from West Michigan fighting for the lifesaving programs she relied on to beat breast cancer.

We want to take a moment to talk about tariffs because honestly, we didn’t realize how bad it was getting until we started comparing notes with friends and family. Stores across the country are already raising prices, and some of the increases are steep.

Renovating and reopening Alcatraz would be the dumbest idea in most administrations.
With Trump, it doesn’t even crack the top 5.

Alcatraz brings in between $20 million and $34 million a year in tourism revenue for the National Park Service alone.
The cost to renovate Alcatraz could be as high as $350 million to house 300 prisoners.
In 1959, it cost over 3x more to house inmates there vs. another prison...

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented.
His argument fails even on its own terms.

Let’s talk about Trump’s “Strengthening and Unleashing Law Enforcement” EO.
There’s a lot of analysis out there on the possibility of this being a prelude to the Insurrection Act and trying to suspend Posse Comitatus, but there’s not much on what I consider the bigger threat.

House Republicans are gutting food aid while Trump’s tariffs drive up costs—leaving San Diego farms without buyers and food banks without fresh produce. It’s not fiscal discipline, it’s deliberate harm to working families and the small farms that feed them.
How San Diego County farms are getting squeezed by funding freezes and tariffs
San Diego County farms used to supply local food banks. With that program canceled by the Trump administration, and tariffs adding another layer of uncertainty, both are struggling to plan for the …

Bush tried. Obama tried. Trump tried
during his first term.
It’s an admirable goal, but it doesn’t work.
No matter how much Trump capitulates to Putin, Russia won’t be our friend.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”
We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Criminal records of J6 Rioters who were pardoned by Trump includes rape, domestic violence, drug trafficking, and manslaughter.
Cool, cool. Maybe would have been smart to research a few of those before pardoning everyone, huh?
