Trump’s 100-day “accomplishment”:
A con so lazy and obvious it insults your intelligence — a promise of “tax cuts for working people” while prices keep climbing.
He hasn’t lifted a finger to make life more affordable. The economy is going to hell before our eyes.

Every American should be deeply troubled by this massive escalation, and @democrats-judiciary.house.gov are standing strong for judicial independence. This is an unmistakable descent further into authoritarian chaos.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia has been sitting in a Salvadoran prison for over a month because the Trump Admin made a mistake.
Now, the Admin is defying SCOTUS & refusing to bring him back.
If we allow Trump to violate Kilmar's rights, none of our rights are safe.

The President of El Salvador says he will not be releasing Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
