We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.
But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan.
Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.

Kroger will lay off ~1,000 employees.
In December, it announced $7.5B in stock buybacks – which juice stock prices, enriching shareholders and boosting CEO pay.
Just so happens that Kroger's last CEO was paid 457x its typical employee in 2024.
Textbook corporate greed.

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.
Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.
It’s time to fight back.
