There's a critical vote today and there is NO WAY to contact you directly. I've never been able to reach you or your staff to express my concern about the crypto bill. As a constituent and an expert in financial market regulation, I am greatly disappointed

Obviously, a huge victory for the migrants here and a major defeat for Trump’s lawless effort to rush out a rendition flight before the courts could act.
But also—potentially a massive signal from the Supreme Court that it is finally prepared to go toe to toe with Trump to halt AEA deportations.

President Trump out on a golf cart while people's retirements go up in flames.
That may end up being the most enduring image of his presidency.

I can’t believe this is real! It’s like the worst caricature of how the right says Soros does politics.
In a video posted by Elon Musk’s PAC, a $1M check recipient linked voting to receiving the money:
“My name’s Ekaterina Deistler. …I did exactly what Elon Musk told everyone to do: sign the petition, refer friends and family, vote, and now I have a million dollars.”
