NATO was created by the North Atlantic Treaty in 1949, approved by the Senate, 83 to 13, and signed into law.
Under the Constitution, the president must "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed."
If Trump won't uphold the Treaty, he must be EXPELLED from office.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov Organized comms. Rotation of 10 best elected/former elected communicators. 3 updates per day, same time per day. Podcast, Bsky, Youtube, & TV. Team also fans out to townhalls: What's really going on, impacts, what should happen, action steps for all.
📌NOTE: Immediately after the vile attack on Zelensky by Putin's puppets Friday, Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries should have called a joint press conference and explained to the American public the significance, heinousness and danger of that sickening surrender.
📌They should STILL be talking now.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Kyiv with world leaders calls Zelensky a hero, fighting a war for 3 years which was started by Russia. She urges Europe to increase support to UKR now, says Zelensky must be at the center of any negotiations with Putin #Voices4Victory

The entire crew of paid, coordinated right-wing influencers all blasted out this pre-planned lie in unison last night. Rinse, repeat. I guess they think when people don’t have tax free tips/overtime in their paychecks, they might not notice. Good luck with that after you hype it.

Musk isn’t making government smaller.
He’s shutting down the parts of the government that have been investigating his companies for safety violations and ties to Russia.

This is grossly irresponsible reporting by the AP. What’s being offered is not a buyout. The deal is if you agree to resign in September you can continue working remotely until then. There is no buyout or severance.

Share widely please — ANYONE could be targeted
ICE officers were in unmarked vans on community college campuses in Northern Virginia today.
They were reportedly knocking on doors of apartments off Rt 1 starting at 6am
You have rights. You do NOT need to open the door without proof of a warrant.
ACLU provided guidance, pls share. 👇
