As we ramp up our lawsuits against Republicans lawlessness, voter suppression and election subversion, More and more GOP officials, activists and supporter are attacking me on social media and on video.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - weโ€™ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.

The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.

Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:

โ€œWeโ€™re not told why they took them, and weโ€™re not told where they took them. By definition, thatโ€™s a kidnapping.โ€
