All you had to do was listen to her.

β€œHe’s been here 25 years cutting the state’s grass, paying his taxes β€” never even had a ticket… we got a felon in the White House but these are the people they got in there. Without immigrants this country is gonna go down.” πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs

From prosecutor to senator to vice president, Kamala Harris has always been for the people. I know her next chapter will be no different, whatever shape it takes.

The fiscal conservatives in the GOP just added $4 trillion to the deficit to give the wealthiest people on earth a tax cut. The pro-family party just took healthcare away from 17 million Americans to give ICE a bigger budget than Brazil’s military. The single most inhumane bill ever passed.

This is chilling to watch and utterly unacceptable in the United States of America.

As a former Senator, I’m calling on all current members to speak out on behalf of Sen. Padilla and defend him and the Senate against these outrageous attacks.

Republicans will claim Padilla β€” one of the kindest people I know β€” is a menacing man who stormed the briefing with smoke coming out of his ears.

But the video doesn't lie.

He didn’t lunge. He announced himself. He just wanted answers.

Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions β€œdisrespectful”.

This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors.

This ain’t about law and order.

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

Booker: "We have a president who did nothing as people stormed our Capitol, & then when those people who viciously beat police & led to some of their deaths - therefore cop killers - were convicted, he pardoned them. So for him to be talking about responsive law enforcement is hypocritical at best"

This #PrideMonth, it’s more important than ever that we create safe, welcoming schools & communities for people to live authentically as themselves. To our LGBTQ+ members and loved ones: We see you, we love you, and we support you.

"What is it about building a new health clinic and upgrading wastewater infrastructure for my constituents in Thomasville, Georgia that is inconsistent with administration policy?"

Thank you @ossoff.senate.gov for grilling Lee Zeldin on canceling EPA environmental justice funding!

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:

1. Break up corporate monopolies

2. Continue building union power

3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics

Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

BREAKING: Senator Chris Murphy just ripped Secretary Noem to filth on the Senate floor:

β€œYour department is out of control.”

Illegal spending. Shadow immigration policy. People disappearing for criticizing the regime.

We’re not teetering on fascism. We’re in it.
