I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

Trump's assault on our rights is not theoretical, it's happening before our eyes.
But the past couple of weeks have also made one thing clear: Trump's illegal & dangerous policies will not go unanswered.
We are fighting back like our lives depend on it, because they do!

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)'s climate and clean energy provisions have led to 330+ funded projects.
These projects have created a tremendous amount of investments and manufacturing jobs, especially in districts represented by Republican members of Congress #CCLforIRA

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.
