The treatment of Senator Alex Padilla is disgraceful — no matter how you look at it.
If this is how the Trump Administration treats a sitting U.S. Senator, we should all be alarmed.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.
If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.
Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

Thank you, Sen. Van Hollen, for standing up not just for Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his family but for every American who believes in due process.
We can't stop speaking out until he is home and this administration is forced to stop its horrific practice of kidnapping people without charge or trial.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

What are your thoughts on the Democrat Party adopting Blue Sky as one of their main channels of communication? It keeps Elon from being able to manipulate viewership and removes hate bots from posting BS from trigger words found in the corners of the internet.

Trump - with his devotion to Putin, abandonment of Ukraine, and lies about history- is the antithesis of everything Ronald Reagan stood for. He is aligning America with the enemies of the very freedom that generations have fought and died to defend.

Even if you *agree* with Trump that we should greatly prioritize our own problems, you should support foreign aid. For a fraction of our budget, we can reduce the sorts of problems abroad that can eventually make it to our borders.
