This is illegal, and it endangers the rights of all Americans.

In this country, people must be free to express their views — left or right, popular or unpopular — without being detained or punished by the government.

Kidnapping an activist and jailing him in the middle of the night is a brazen act of authoritarianism.

Punishing dissent by revoking legal status is a dangerous precedent to set.
NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.

Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.

His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

ICYMI: On Tuesday, House Republicans passed their budget plan.

What’s in that plan? Giant cuts to Medicaid, all so they can give big tax breaks to the richest millionaires and billionaires.

Republicans are working for their wealthy donors, not you.

A conservative prosecutor who clerked under Scalia resigned when told by the Trump Admin to drop corruption charges against NYC mayor. Courage and integrity in this moment are both inspiring and necessary.
Danielle Sassoon resigned rather than carry out the Trump administration's order to drop corruption charges against New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, setting off other resignations within the Justice Department and standing up for the independence that has defined her Manhattan office for decades.

When I was sworn into Congress, I took an oath to support and defend the Constitution.

No matter what illegal stunts Trump, Musk, and the other billionaires in this administration pull, that won’t change.

I’m here, right alongside you, fighting back to defend our democracy.

Now that Trump is saying it, can the Democratic Party forcefully oppose the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and the genocide of Palestinians?

Trump is working overtime to fund US intervention in Israel so his son-in-law can profit off developing Gaza.

Trump will cut funding for families but not genocide.

A single, unelected billionaire has been given the keys to our economy & private data so that he can enrich himself and decide who receives federal funds.

The richest person in the world taking control of the US government isn't just oligarchy, it's a corporate coup.
