New information here on how Trump has turned the Department of Justice—which is supposed to work on your behalf—into his own personal law firm, punishing his enemies and rewarding his friends.

"Worse than Watergate" doesn't begin to cover it. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
60 Attorneys on the Year of Chaos Inside Trump’s Justice Department (Gift Article)
Sixty former staffers describe an environment of suspicion and intimidation within the nation’s most powerful law enforcement agency.

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

What are the effects of the shutdown on SNAP users? Propel provides an app to SNAP users to allow them to track their spending and so can offer real-time estimates of needs.
About 70% of SNAP households have a $10 or less balance on their SNAP card accounts.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

Donald Trump is telling his DOJ to prosecute people involved in defeating him in 2020. He will claim the 2025 California referendum was fraudulent. He is going to try to impose voter ID and ban mail-in and early voting for 2026.

I will do everything I can in the courtroom and in public to stop him.

🚨 9 DAYS TO GO.

I've also created a SECOND VA page focusing on the REDDEST districts in the state.

Most of these Dems likely won't win, but funding them means they can run competitive races & force VA Republicans to defend "safe" turf. Donate today! #Blue25

Can some film nerd make a supercut of iconic scenes of the White House getting destroyed in movies, and then the last frames are obviously the east wing today?

Why am I pitching this instead of the Democrats putting out an ad, yesterday. This is so fucking easy to concept.
The White House is a thing you only ever imagined being destroyed by external forces. It really paints the guy in the light of an enemy for him to waddle in and bulldoze it so cavalierly, and the suddenness of the act feels like an attack. That shit pierces normies who are otherwise tuned out.

Trump apparently doesn’t intend to allow for the defeat of the incumbent administration. But at least we’ll be allowed to watch him celebrate his triumph over the old republic along with his wealthy enablers in his palatial new ballroom! www.thebulwark.com/p/our-house-...

We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.

But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan.

Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.

And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

This is not about politics. It's about people.
