We are just one day in to the MAGA Shutdown. Already we can tell that Republicans’ failure to fund the government is going to have a devastating impact on millions of working class American families, but the stakes are too high to back down now. Our healthcare is worth fighting for.

The old legal aphorism is "A grand jury would indict a ham sandwich" ... but apparently a DC grand jury won't indict somebody for throwing a ham sandwich during a federal occupation.

People are being forced out of DC. The cost of living is too high, and Trump is waging an all-out assault on the District.

It should be easier and more affordable to build a life here.

That's why I’m running for DC Council in Ward 1.

Trump releases troves of invasive surveillance on the private life of a civil rights icon … but continues to protect the secrets of his pal, Jeffrey Epstein, a disgraced Wall Street scumbag

Sending a message tonight to Trump's Sec. of Commerce Scott Bessent, who:

💰 Called concerns about oligarchy "class envy" during his confirmation hearing
🙅‍ Opposes raising the min wage, claiming it "distorts markets"
🔒 Protects power and pushes for fewer corporate regulations.
