I was elected 6 weeks ago. Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to swear me in. Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to swear me into office, an unprecedented and starkly undemocratic position that sets a very dangerous precedent.

It’s time for Speaker Johnson to cut the ridiculous excuses and do his job. Adelita Grijalva won an election more than 6 weeks ago, and she still hasn’t been sworn in to represent more than 800,000 Arizonans. Read her op-ed:

🚨 The silence is over. Tomorrow at 10:30 AM, survivors of Epstein’s abuse will speak on Capitol Hill.
Reps. Ro Khanna & Thomas Massie will stand with them.

Listen to the victims. Believe them.

There's enough money for ICE to offer $50,000 bonuses to people who sign up to be abusive cowards who drag mothers & crying children from their homes..............but there isn't enough money to fund Medicaid or even SNAP to ensure families do not starve......gop priorities.

Hands Off Public Schools!

Public schools are the heart of our communities — where every child deserves a safe, well-funded, and honest education.

Extremist agendas have no place in our classrooms. We trust our educators. We value facts.

We demand investment, not interference.

Can CU Denver
Meet This Moment?
The University of Colorado Denver has shown it does not support all students.
Leadership has prioritized quietly removing its resource webpage for undocumented students, remaining complicit in the ongoing genocide in Palestine, and refusing to affirm its non-compliance with ICE.
As students and human beings of conscience, it is our duty to bear witness to Israel's genocide in Palestine and the US government's violent detention and deportation of people living here. Both atrocities are funded by our tax dollars.

Market manipulation is a CRIME.

It's securities fraud.

It undermines the integrity of financial markets.

Call it pump-and-dump, insider trading, whatever you like.

His immunity does NOT APPLY to criminal activity.

And anyone in Congress that traded, can and should be prosecuted.

Hostile reminder that Congress has the ability to modify or take back the powers they granted to the executive branch thru legislation.

Basically Congress can wake tf up at any point and stop Trump’s tariffs. 👀

It’s a fundamental principle of the constitution, which y’all love so much right?

Democrats,

If you can’t muster the nerve to pick up a mic and state we have a Russian asset in the White House (as many of our allies have boldly done), then what the hell are you even doing?

Psst, eating your own & “bipartisan” crap aren’t the answer.

Trump is:

* Turning on our allies
* Tanking our economy
* Shutting down cyber operations against Russia
* Gutting the US government from the inside
* Purging qualified generals
* Giving Ukraine to Putin

Serious question:

Has Trump done anything that is not *EXACTLY* what a Russian asset would do?

Trump isn’t even hiding it anymore—he wants to hijack the USPS so he can control mail-in ballots. This isn’t policy—it’s a power grab designed to tilt the game in his favor, straight-up authoritarianism.
This is the kneecapping of democracy in real time.

The idea of pardoning Trump for intentionally taking classified documents, and repeatedly impeding the investigation to locate and recover those documents is insane.

As it is, he won't be held accountable for his crimes. THAT already caused people to lose faith in the justice system.
