For all my Iowa Democrats…I got to visit with Ryan Peterman tonight about his candidacy for Secretary of State. Navy veteran and all around amazing candidate. He could use some boosting if you’d like to repost! #Iowa #politics #SecretaryofState #RyanPeterman #Democrats

Donald Trump canceled Direct File after giant tax prep companies spent millions lobbying.

Why? Because Direct File let you file your taxes for free.

So today, I’m introducing a bill to make Direct File the law of the land. And 160 members of Congress are joining me.

UK bank bosses plan to set up Visa and Mastercard alternative amid Trump fears Exclusive: First meeting to be held over domestic payments system aimed at reducing reliance on US networks

Well, well, well. Our former allies are not going to bow down to Trump. They are divesting from the U.S. wherever and however they can.

I’m working with my team to keep track of the security situation in parts of Mexico.

New Jerseyans: if you’re in Mexico, you can sign up for STEP, the Smart Traveller Enrollment Program, to be contacted by the U.S. government regarding urgent updates in the region.

Halfway through Jenna’s book now. This poor girl suffered at the hands of men for nearly her entire life. Such a brave person she was. I hope she and the other victims get justice soon.

I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.

You know, like a democracy.

The Trump administration is a nothing more than a criminal enterprise hiding behind the presidential seal.

It only takes 23 Republicans to end all of this, but apparently no one in their party has the balls to save this country from these gangsters.

Why don’t global countries just ignore him like he ignores court rulings and simply refuse. Then nothing gets shipped to the U.S.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

Isn’t this the same administration who is trying to prosecute Don Lemon for violating parishioners first amendment rights to practice religion? Wouldn’t the administration be guilty of the same thing if they don’t abide by this order?

Interesting take on how women from this regime will ultimately be the ones who take the fall. Set up to do so, if you will.

Oh look, it’s someone who reexamined what the politics looked like and what his role was going to be.

Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.

Appreciate the talk about banning ICE masks in shutdown negotiations.

But the non-negotiable should be congressional oversight of ICE detention facilities. Full access, no appointments, no permission slips.

No compromise.
