I voted HELL NO on a CR deal that betrays millions of people who rallied, organized, and voted to save health care for 20 million Americans. Giving into a bully does nothing to stop him. I’ll keep fighting against Trump’s authoritarianism and attempts to gut community resources.

Shameful. Trump is on a crusade to take food off the tables of families in Oregon and around the country.

I’m fighting like hell to protect the SNAP benefits folks count on.

Phenomenal Blue energy! A blue pulsar!

America has awoken and recognized the Trump nightmare is all too real.

We reject his goal of making America sicker and poorer. We reject his authoritarian takeover.

Let's save our Republic!!

I’m ringing the alarm bells: Trump’s authoritarianism is already here.
Ring the Alarm Bells: Authoritarianism Isn’t Coming, It’s Here Now
Trump’s authoritarian playbook has 10 rules. He’s following every single one of them.

Trump wants us to believe that Portland is full of chaos and riots because if he can get the American people to believe there are riots, he can say there's a rebellion and use that as an excuse to tighten his authoritarian grip.

We need to stay strong and not take Trump's bait!

From deploying the National Guard in our cities to defying court orders and shutting down the government to attack health care, Trump is testing how far he can go.

I'm doing everything I can to fight back to protect our communities and our We the People government.

Sen. Merkley: The UAE, they buy $2 billion of the Trump coin and invest it in Binance. In exchange, Trump says, 'those high-end AI chips, we'll give them to you.' Then there is this pardon of the Binance founder. As soon as he is pardoned, he uses his company to promote Trump's personal profit

As the Trump Administration continues to target Oregon, @tinakotek.bsky.social is the leader we need to have our back and stand up for our communities.

Thank you for holding the line in Oregon, Gov. Kotek!

Resisting President Trump’s abuse of power is vital for protecting our freedoms.

🎯 Exactly right. We can’t have business as usual with an authoritarian in the White House.

That’s why I’m ringing the alarm bells! 🔔🔔🔔

Just stepped off the Senate floor after almost 23 hours.

The fight isn’t over—we need to keep standing together to resist Trump’s attempts to tighten his authoritarian grip.

I’m still going!

We need to say HELL NO to Trump trampling on our Constitution.

Americans are speaking out with a resounding, clear voice: in America we have NO KINGS.

Thank you to everyone who is showing up to show this Administration that we reject their cruelty, brutality, and authoritarianism!

Democrats are fighting to protect YOUR health care.

Republicans shut down the government rather than fix the mess THEY made of Medicaid with their Big, Ugly BETRAYAL of a budget bill.
October 16, 2025 at 12:56 AM
We're in a Republican shutdown right now because Trump and his minions want to take away YOUR health care to fund tax breaks for their billionaire buddies.

They will always put the powerful ahead of the American people.
