Crypto bros who paid almost $150 million to go to Trump’s dinner said that they “attended the event with the explicit intent of influencing Mr. Trump and U.S. financial regulations.” The White House is for sale and people know it. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/u...

All of these people are willing to give up any values, morals, or backbone they had because Trump is making them even richer. Beyond corrupt.

Another big win in court. No, Donald, you can’t play with the lives of foreign students by arbitrarily revoking their visas and, no, you can’t treat universities like pawns in your Gangster State and retaliate against them for defending themselves.

Thank you to Southern University at New Orleans for the honor of serving as your 2025 commencement speaker, and for the incredible gift of an honorary doctorate. To the graduates: They underestimated SUNO. They underestimated you. But you pushed through every obstacle, every setback, & still rose.

Trump promised not to cut Medicare, but his billionaire tax heist adds so much to the deficit that it will likely trigger more than $500 million in Medicare cuts. The super-rich get richer while seniors struggle to pay for medicine—all thanks to the GOP. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

The “big, beautiful” bill ain’t beautiful—it’s bullshit. House Republicans just voted for the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. history—turning their backs on their own damn constituents: the working people they were sent here to represent. They don’t serve the people. They serve the rich.

I voted NO on their “big, beautiful” bill because it will strip health care from 14 million Americans—including nearly 130,000 people in my district who rely on Medicaid.

This intolerable attack on Harvard’s independence and academic freedom is plainly government retaliation for Harvard’s speech standing up for itself and the rule of law. America must rally to the side of Harvard and its students in court, in Congress and in our communities.

“Six years ago, I found myself face to face with a white farmer preparing for the government to take his land. This did not happen in South Africa. It was in South Texas, and it was because of Trump…” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/u...

President Trump has not wasted a moment using his position of power for personal gain. Today’s official acceptance of a luxury jet from the Qatari government for use as Air Force One poses a needless threat to U.S. national security and is a disturbing abuse of the office of the President.

Adding $2.5 trillion to federal debt, gutting Medicaid and health care, trashing Meals on Wheels, Head Start and SNAP, and cutting a giant tax break to benefit the wealthiest people and corporations. Trump could not be offering us a worse program. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Birthright citizenship is a constitutional right. So I’m glad the Supreme Court decided to uphold the Constitution instead of letting Trump weaponize an 18th-century law.

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today. This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.
