No one should be deported to a prison in another country without due process.
Judge: 'Probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations
The government sent several planeloads of alleged gang members to El Salvador, including 137 people under the act, the White House said at the time. The judge gave the U.S. until April 23 to respond.

Today, we have more income and wealth inequality than ever before.
But the greed of the oligarchs never stops.
Now, in order to get huge tax breaks, they want to cut back on Social Security, Medicaid and veterans programs.
Together we can stop them. We must stop them.

The House just passed a funding bill that would provide ICE with a nearly $10 billion blank check to detain and deport immigrant communities with few guardrails.
Senators have the power to stop this cruel waste of taxpayer dollars. They must use that power.

BREAKING: We're suing the Trump administration for removing medical research by private doctors from a government website.
Our clients are Harvard Medical School doctors whose work was removed because of the words "LGBTQ" and "transgender."
The government cannot censor science.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

🧵 It’s Sunday morning, and eggs are still expensive, so here’s a pro baking tip:
You can replace eggs with baking soda & vinegar. This works really well for pancakes (and even cakes, muffins, and quick breads).

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.
Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.
We hammered this time and time again and yet.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

BREAKING: President Trump just signed into law the Laken Riley Act, which will require immigrants to be detained with no due process based on an accusation of a non-violent crime.
This is a dangerous bill that violates our Constitutional rights.
