Democrats have almost endless money, power, access, media control, and soft power, and yet have not accomplished anything for ordinary working people in decades.
In that same span they have helped their corporate donors reap unimaginable profits.
They don’t give a good God damn about you.

When you defy court orders and deny one man his Constitutional rights, you threaten them for ALL.
Trump can post all he wants, but a federal judge said there's “no evidence linking Abrego Garcia to MS-13 or to any terrorist activity.”
Trump needs to put up or shut up IN COURT.

BREAKING: Mahmoud Khalil Can Be Deported, Immigration Judge Rules
The judge said the Trump administration’s evidence – a two-page letter from Secretary of State Marco Rubio – is sufficient to deport Khalil under an obscure legal provision.

This is a great point. For example, when I look back at the epochal changes of this past January, I would personally have voted not to confirm Marco Rubio
We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?"
This is our moment. This is our time.
We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

Sotomayor is right. According to this Supreme Court, the US can now kidnap, detain, and fly legal immigrants and citizens to a foreign country's prison, even if it's a whoopsie.

And the day after they expire, the president can impose new tariffs. How does this help?
This Senate bill to slap limits on the president’s tariff power now has SEVEN Republican sponsors:
• Grassley
• Moran
• Murkowski
• McConnell
• Tillis
• Young
• Collins
• Grassley
• Moran
• Murkowski
• McConnell
• Tillis
• Young
• Collins
Senators Chuck Grassley (R) and Maria Cantwell (D) just introduced a bill to reassert Congress’s power over tariffs.
—President must notify Congress on new tariffs within 48 hours of imposition.
—Congress must approve them within 60 days or they expire.

This doesn't seem like enough. 60 days can cause a lot of damage. AND he'll game things by just renewing them.
The only real fix is to take the damn power to do this away from him!

We all know chuck won’t do anything. Where are the rest of the Democratic Senators?
Thank you, Senator Booker, for standing up for Americans across this country.
I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:
