Republican Congresswoman Failed to Properly Disclose 170 Trades Worth Up to $13.6M Dozens of those trades came in the form of stock sales made on March 18, when key details of Trump’s tariff policies were disclosed.

Rep. Sheri Biggs was weeks or months late disclosing more than 170 stock, treasury bill and corporate security trades made by her husband, Bill Biggs.

Say it with us: Ban congressional stock trading.

Fascists hate being mocked. They want footage of people confronting and fighting ICE. Don't give it to them.

Remember the names. Making a list is helpful and necessary going forward. If any of these folks run for office in the future, they need to be called out by name.

PAY ATTENTION TO THIS! Your voting rights are at risk.

This is what someone who knows their base says in order to save their career. She's in a +19(R) district, and in this political climate where Democrats are decisively winning seats in Alaska, Virginia, Arizona and possibly North Carolina, she can't afford to lose support.

Greene on the Epstein files: "I can't conclusively say that's why the House isn't in session, but the House should be in session...there is a new Democrat that's been elected that deserves to be sworn in...if it's to avoid the discharge petition, why drag this out? It's going to have 218 signatures"

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.

Congress finally got Epstein’s financial records, and right after that, Speaker Mike Johnson shut the House down. The timing looks shady as hell like they don’t want anyone digging too deep or asking the wrong questions. Whether it’s coincidence or cover-up, it sure doesn’t feel like transparency.

DAV’s response to shameful Washington Post article suggesting our nation’s veterans are gaming the VA disability system

“the rising number of veterans receiving VA disability compensation isn’t a story about widespread abuse or fraud; It’s a story about our nation’s continuing efforts to keep the promise to those who have served during multiple wars over the course of generations.”

I’m not sure who on the left needs to hear this @dscc.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats-judiciary.house.gov but we are not “business as usual”.

I understand the push for healthcare & the shutdown but your silence & inaction on human & civil rights violations is telling.🤔
