Pam Bondi’s defensive attacks against Senate Democrats questioning her was not the flex she thinks it was. All it did was vividly point out how she has abandoned Justice Dept. independence to serve the desires of her authoritarian boss.

Imagine how they'll feel if Trump pardons her.

And how will MAGA feel about that? Or the non-MAGA Trump voters? It's hard to imagine that there's much of a constituency for pardoning the world's most notorious sex-trafficker.

Letter signed by Representatives Ocasio-Cortez, Espaillat, Goldman, Clarke, Latimer, Meeks, Meng, Nadler, Tonko, Torres, and Velázquez.

ICE is using your tax dollars to target children.

A child in my district was deported days before the start of the school year.

We are demanding answers on why K-12 students are being arrested and whether the Department of Education is fulfilling their obligations to students in custody.

Ever notice how fraudsters always assume everyone else is committing fraud?

@cbsnews.com is finished. Boycott it out of existence.

OF COURSE WE'RE PROFILING BROWN PEOPLE! WHY DO YOU THINK WE'RE DOING THIS?!

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

I was grateful to sit down with workers from @afscme.bsky.social to hear how recent decisions out of Washington are threatening the programs they rely on.

Our government should work for working families — and that means taking real, concrete steps to protect their lifesaving health care.

Federal agencies call these tactics necessary for officer safety. When they are used in residential buildings, the purpose shifts. It becomes about intimidation.

When communities associate immigration enforcement with explosions, helicopters, and armed soldiers, the goal is not justice. It is fear.

He would really REALLY like to do that. Terrorism charges can add decades to sentencing for a minor offense.

Shutdowns are painful for millions of American workers, health insurance premiums are set to more than double for millions more, nothing about this is fun.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

“They are the ones that are making it a war zone,” Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker said Sunday. “They fire tear gas and smoke grenades, and they make it look like it’s a war zone.”

My full statement on Ghislaine Maxwell appeal:

These fuckers are betting everything on their party never losing power.

The truth isn’t as scary as denial. Denial makes you fight two battles...suppressing what scares you...and....fueling endless fears in your head at the same time.. Face reality...and you stop wasting energy on illusions. You start planning. And that’s when fear turns into strength.

The single most transparent administration in history 🤦🤦

Best Buds.

“I don’t know this woman, Ghislaine Maxwell — never met her. My lawyer only coached her for, what, eight hours? Then she gets transferred to Club Fed’s Yoga Camp. Total coincidence!” - DJT

Only because it directly affects HER family, but I'll take it 🙅

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

I'm so sick of the casualness of their constant lying.

This is your daily reminder that the President of the United States is a convicted FELON ‼️
