@schumer.senate.gov If you vote for cloture you are a stain on this country’s history that will never go away. You are willingly passing power to a tyrant in waiting, and you are a disgrace to every oath of office any senator has ever sworn. Your legacy will be one of cowardice and contempt.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

We just got new data: Our trade partners bought nearly $27 billion in food and other products last year. That’s a massive contribution to Minnesotans who work in our agriculture, mining, and manufacturing industries, and it’s why we can’t risk trade wars with our closest allies.

The first victims of Trump’s trade war? Minnesotans struggling to pay their skyrocketing electric bill. Minnesota cannot afford Trump’s billionaire-run economy. We have to put a stop to this madness. www.startribune.com/ontario-slap...

The ICE arrest of a lawful permanent resident goes well beyond the administration's previous deportation actions. There are actually more green card holders (13.9 million) than people living here without legal status (11.4 million). www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trump-is-c...

Did y’all just see Elon on TV say he wants to cut Social Security??? The richest man in the world is out here telling you he wants to stop you from getting your own money back—while he rakes in $8 million a day of YOUR tax dollars to blow up rockets in the sky. THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT YOU!

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security. Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

Yep. As someone who works on super complex hospital systems, there are too many nuances that need to be accounted for and DOGE’s method is going to force a complete rebuild at the expense of Americans lives, tax payer dollars, and more.

Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts. And Nebraska Republicans here ! Curious what you think www.1011now.com/2025/03/05/t...

And the good news keeps coming! The preliminary injunction issued by Judge Brendan A. Hurson, of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, blocks a Trump administration effort to withhold funds from hospitals unless they stop providing gender-transition treatment to transgender youths.

Better than nothing. Maybe next time, follow Rep. Al Green’s lead and make them drag you off one by one. And maybe wear blue and yellow instead of pink.

Trump’s tariffs aren’t just crippling our trade relationships, they’re hurting real farmers on the ground in Minnesota. I’ll keep standing up for the farmers who feed, fuel, and grow our country.

Republicans have been advised to avoid in-person town halls after confrontations over layoffs go viral. Meaning those fucking cowards are ashamed to look their constituents in the eye after what they did. Don’t take no for an answer. If they refuse to talk to you go to them and demand answers...

DOGE has seized access to huge troves of sensitive personal and national security information – and can’t even set up its own website securely. When DOGE fails to protect that data, it puts us all in danger. @repstansbury.bsky.social, @connolly.house.gov and I are pushing back.

The bill they passed did not include no tax on tips or no tax on overtime. It did include a multi-trillion windfall for billionaires. They’re just straight up lying to you and hoping you don’t notice.
