Peaceful protest today, April 19th in Rancho Bernardo. We had hundreds of peaceful protesters and cars honking, with very few maggots giving us the finger. Democracy is winning.

(1,5) To the uninformed, the mentally lazy, & those who are not bright let me make it easy. Every country in the world has mental health issues, only the United States has a gun violence problem. It was not always this way. It is actually a problem that mostly exists over the past few decades.

The El Salvador story is less about Abrego Garcia himself than about the right to due process.

The assault on Harvard is less about the school itself (there are and will be others) but attempted federal control of private universities. 1/

A Reagan-appointed judge just issued a scathing rebuke of the government’s actions in the Abrego Garcia case, warning of a constitutional crisis and executive overreach. This ruling is stunning—because it had to be.

This is the absolute truth. Too many electeds now consider their political careers first, and their constituents last. You're there to create legislation & work to govern the nation, not fold to bullies. If it's that easy to give away your Constitutional powers, you don't belong there.
Goldman: "Think about whether any of us want to vote a certain way but bc we fear for our personal safety, we decide to vote differently. We are no longer representing our constituents. We are representing something else more like the bully threatening us. That is more like Vladimir Putin operates"

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

RFK Jr.’s lies about autism are disgraceful — and I won't share them to spread misinformation.

He consistently undermines public health and reinforces dangerous myths.

In Illinois, we stand with those with autism, and I’ll keep fighting for inclusion, science, and the truth.

ICE is demanding doctor leave U.S. immediately—she is U.S. citizen born in Pennsylvania.

Unlike 2 immigration lawyers who received email—the doctor never had anything to do with immigration in her life.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.

Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.

That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

It's Fascism 101.

Senator Lisa Murkowski just said that she and her colleagues are afraid & anxious because retaliation from the president is real. This is not normal or right. Our leader is a tyrant, but the same people who are scared, are the ones who could actually stop him.
