The shameless GOP lying about the No Kings gatherings scheduled for next Saturday reveals how deeply hostile much of the Republican Party is to “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” I look forward to our local No Kings event, and urge my fellow Americans to attend in their communities.

Speaking with democracy activists recently from Hungary and Poland, former President Barack Obama warned about the "rising wave of authoritarianism sweeping the globe," even in countries once believed unsusceptible to an erosion of liberties.

Shutdown 5WHs

Who? It’s on Republicans

What? At stake: Your
Healthcare &
Federal workers'
jobs

When? Right Now

Where? Republicans are MIA

Why? Republicans seek no
solutions
I’ve gotten a lot of questions about this government shutdown. 

Who? What? When? Where? Why? 

Every answer points to the same thing — Republicans’ inability to do their jobs. 

I’m still in D.C., working to pass a budget that puts hardworking Virginians first.

Heads-up. Share this everywhere. ICE has created a fake "Stop Ice" app. They're trying to ensnare people to enter their information, so they can go after them.

Ovidio Guzman enters plea deal in July 2025, agrees to forfeit $80 million to Feds. In exchange, 17 of his family members crossed the border into the USA and are in protective custody. If Ovidio “el raton” rats out enough people he may avoid a life sentence

Who do you believe- the reporter who says she did nothing wrong to cause her violent detainment and who they released hours later with no charges. Or the poorly trained aggressive ICE agents who hit a car as they sped away with the violently detained reporter? I wonder which one I believe? 🤔

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

It’s Day 10 of the government shutdown, and there’s no resolution in sight. By the end of Thursday night, senators were heading home for a four-day weekend more entrenched than at any point since the impasse began.

Trump and the Republicans own this shutdown. Totally.
