The Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship decision shreds the very notion of Constitutional rights It effectively permits any president to enact an unlawful Executive Order which abrogates our freedoms And that Order will stand against each US citizen unless they sue the government individually

Pendulum theory for American politics is increasingly asinine and misses the point. Republicans are stripping the country for parts to sell off for billionaire tax breaks- citing Medicare, selling off public lands, and one mayor suggested free transit. Get a grip.

Russ Vought, the unelected mastermind behind Project 2025, wants to cancel funding Congress already approved using shady budget tricks. His goal is simple: erase coequal branches and give Trump total control. Every member of Congress should be alarmed. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

A new projection says Trump’s tariffs will add 250,000 factory jobs but kill 440,000 service jobs. That’s like fixing one flat tire by slashing the other three. It’s not a jobs plan. It’s economic self-sabotage.

Heat waves are becoming more frequent, longer, and deadlier due to human-caused climate change. Fossil fuel pollution is making extreme heat more likely, more intense, and harder to escape. So why would we double down on the dirty energy policies of the past? www.cnn.com/2025/06/23/c...

$2 trillion cut from Medicaid and food aid. $4.5 trillion handed to billionaires. They’re stealing from the people who work the hardest, to reward those who have the most. #Pinks #MomSky

Informing only Republicans before bombing Iran isn’t a “mistake.” It’s a federal violation. 50 U.S.C. § 3093 requires bipartisan notification—And Trump knew exactly what he was doing when he broke that law. Charge him. Now.

Let me put it this way - there is no more bipartisanship. There is no more “norms and traditions”. This war is illegal, and every Republican is complicit not only in an illegal war but also in the degradation of our democracy and the powers of congress. www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/forei...

Accountability is an important part of the movement. As families in Orange County are too scared to go to grocery stores, their children’s graduations or doctors appointments leaders need to have conversations with their constituents on how to support them. abc7.com/post/oc-viet...

Thousands of peaceful protesters have lined the road for over 8 continuous miles just outside of Washington DC right now! They did not vote for a king and they are well aware that Trump is trying to cut off their health care benefits to give tax breaks to him and his billionaire donors friends.

There has GOT to be a way to be in solidarity with people being hunted and brutalized by ICE without equating them to their financial worth or saying “we’re all immigrants”.

Important to note that Trump’s budget bill gives the federal government the resources that they need to do across the country what they’re doing to LA. Defeating this takeover means defeating this bill.

If you think the people in masks protesting in the streets of L.A. are terrorists, but the ones in masks rounding up human beings like cattle are heroes, you’re not a patriot. You’re a fascist.

We would all do better to collectively understand that language is different in different communities and language evolves over time due to trends or social pressures. This applies to “the girls are fighting” and the use of the word “partner”. Always lead with kindness and the rest works out.

This week, the House voted to pass the Gerald E. Connolly Esophageal Cancer Act in honor of my dear friend and colleague, Gerry Connolly. Gerry was a kind soul and a true mentor. His legacy will help protect others in the fight against esophageal cancer.
