Just called my representatives in Texas, to ask them if they are complicit in trashing the constitution with Donald Trump, or do they plan to do something about this constitutional crisis that we are in?
Please call your reps and make your voice heard!

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador.

Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov

No one flopped harder at pretending to be an “alpha male” than JD Vance. Every move is forced, awkward, and painfully try-hard. Zero delivery.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Trump bears the bulk of the blame for the unprecedented global economic crisis now unfolding. But let’s not ignore the role played by the hideously bad judgment of the business and financial leaders who supported Trump and didn’t realize this was an inevitable outcome.

IRS lawyers advise that what Trump wants to do with private tax information is likely illegal.

They do it anyway.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

I still can’t figure out when “we can deport you” turned into “we can put you in a hell hole prison in a third country, indefinitely, with no legal recourse.”

When elected officials see mass protests and then immediately adjust their behavior in response, that is a good thing. That's how this should work!

Celebrate Blumenthal for this. And then ask your own Dem senator what they're doing. And what Schumer is doing.
