Workers laboring in a cauliflower field after a heavy rain

Sen Chris Murphy (D-CT) to Face the Nation:

“I don't have any obligation to fund a Department of Homeland Security that is violating the law every day, just like I don't have any obligation to support this war that is illegal as well.”

My law firm is currently litigating 86 voting and election cases in 41 states. I expect several more to be filed this week. Here are the states where we are currently most active:

Georgia 8
Arizona 6
Florida 6
California 4
Virginia 4
Wisconsin 4

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.

If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

But is he the next Fetterman, only worse with Nazi tattoos and retweeting Nazis?

“A US-Israeli strike on an elementary school in Minab reportedly killed at least 165 - mostly young girls who were only trying to learn.”

My reply to all military recruiters trying to reach my son:

Women’s History Month starts with a reminder from the Obamas.

Progress happens because women refuse to accept limits placed on them.

We celebrate how far we’ve come.
And we keep fighting for what still isn’t equal.

The work continues. Always.

Happy Women’s History Month.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

He's not a blue governor for any intersection of people. He's all about himself. His recent remarks about trans people and recent racism shows no real leadership. Not anyone I am voting for ever.

ICE shackled a woman who was 6 months pregnant.

They held her in a cell with no bed and hardly any food for three days until she became so sick she ended up in the hospital.

She’s afraid to leave because they might grab her again.

This is abuse.

It’s a violation of basic human rights.

Clara, snoozing.

Worms in food, poor medical care, lights on 24/7: Families tell of life in Texas detention center When ICE officers in Minneapolis detained a 5-year-old boy and his father last month and sent them to a Texas detention center, many Americans were alarmed.

There’s a reason the children being held captive at Dilley have been heard screaming “let us out”.

One girl tried to kill herself.

Many stop eating.

Little Liam Ramos’s health declined in a matter of days.

A toddler ended up in the ICU.

Close the camp. Now.

Reports of an anti-voting executive order are circulating in Washington. The order would give the president authority to declare a national emergency and take control of elections—banning mail-in ballots & voting machines. We must remain vigilant.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.

The military industrial complex is cheering today.

The U.S. military is not any president’s plaything. The Constitution puts the responsibility on Congress alone to decide whether and when to take on the profound costs of war.

Elite Doctors Served Jeffrey Epstein While Treating His ‘Girls’

NEW: I and colleagues reviewed 15,000 documents to illuminate how Jeffrey Epstein used VIP doctors to control and manipulate young women* — and how the doctors helped him, treating his needs as more important than the patients'. Gift link.

“.. risk insurers on Saturday submitted cancellation notices for policies covering ships moving through the key oil chokepoint, brokers told the FT, with prices set to rise as much as 50 per cent in the coming days.”

Americans do not want another forever war in the Middle East.

Congress must return to DC immediately to reassert its war powers.

Compare AOC's statement to Schumer's. We desperately need to push out those ancient ineffectual Dems in charge.

These illegal operations are part of a desperate attempt to distract from his failed policies and stay in power, and it puts American lives at risk.

Trump’s Epstein scandal is not going away.

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.
