Why Are They Hiding Their Faces? If ICE agents' actions are perfectly acceptable, they shouldn't have to mask their identities

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it.

Iโ€™ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

So House Republicans are fighting about the Medicaid cuts in the tax bill for the rich - not because it kicks nearly 9 million people off Medicaid - but because it doesn't kick *enough* people off Medicaid. Vote accordingly.

๐ŸšจJasmine Crockett & Eric Swalwell begged House Judiciary Republicans to vote NO. They offered deals, sweeteners, the whole package. And those damn soulless traitors STILL voted to let Trump exile American citizens.

Iโ€™m livid.

Trump defunded the CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) program.

The program supports and advocates for victims of child abuse, neglect, human trafficking, and children in the foster care system. Volunteers work closely with the court system to ensure that children are safe.

Arresting judges.

Threatening allies.

Lying about trade deals.

Trying to sell campaign merch from the White House.

Floating a 2028 run.

Deranged. Dangerous. Undemocratic.

We must retake our democracy.
