I’m sorry but I WANT regulations in place to protect the health of me and my family. This claim that it will save money is bull****. This will haunt us through increased health problems and resulting medical costs, increased cost of living, elimination of jobs, and more.

The attack on the rule of law is not a bugβ€”it's a feature of Trump 2.0

McIver case is the latest example & it will fail

BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts.

Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

We are not under invasion.

There is no justification for suspending our constitutional rights.

Every single American should speak out against this, loudly and forcefully.

WTF. The right to protest without fear of government retribution is our constitutionally given right. Period.

Opinion | How Will We Know When We Have Lost Our Democracy?

β€œSo far, the most energetic opposition has come not from civic leaders but from everyday citizens, showing up at Congressional town hall meetings or participating in Hands Off rallies across the country.

β€œOur leaders must follow their example.”

We've seen videos like this before, but usually when you see a tearful wife pleading with the kidnappers who have taken her husband, she's not talking to the U.S. president

Iowa voters confronted Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley over Trump’s blatant defiance of the Supreme Court and disregard for the Constitution.

The American people are rising up against the corrupt Trump regime.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?"

Senior Citizen: β€œIf I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say β€˜no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said β€˜screw it’”

β€œI’M PISSED!”

The violent attack–potentially fueled by antisemitism–on Governor Shapiro’s residence over the weekend is unconscionable and especially harrowing as the Governor and his family were observing Passover at the time. This ugly incident, with intention of physical violence, is pure hatred on display. Our members reject political violence in all forms and we wish comfort to Governor Shapiro, his family and the people of the Commonwealth.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this.

We can't. We need answers.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services.

This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage.

Keep up the fight.
