My statement on Donald Trump’s unilateral military action in Iran.

Trump in 2013: “Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!”

The United States should not wage war against Iran. Donald Trump’s bombing of Iran is unconstitutional. Only Congress can declare war — and the Senate must vote immediately to prevent an another endless war. This is a horrific war of choice.

IMPORTANT: Stop calling the troops in LA National Guard Troops. They are not. When Trump activated them against the wishes of the Gov they became FEDERAL troops… like the 82nd airborne with no Law enforcement power! Don’t let them confuse you!

TONIGHT: at 7 PM ET: KNOW YOUR RIGHTS training for the upcoming NO KINGS events this Saturday: act.aclu.org/a/2025-kyr-t...

On June 14th, we show up. Coalition members will be present at all 1,800 events nationwide, over 90,000 strong, helping monitor local conditions. Many veterans have stepped forward to support protesters, stand in solidarity, and defend our right to be heard. We thank them.

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

📍 Lindsay Heights, Milwaukee -- Nine community members spent months capturing the good and bad of their neighborhood's environment on camera, and then turned the photos into an exhibit. View their photos at Legacy Days from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 1 on North Avenue between 14th and 18th streets.

While the women behind "womanosphere" outlets all have different styles and tactics, they are mostly aligned in their desire to return to a gender-essentialist worldview: women as submissive homemakers, men as strong providers.

People are mad at Trump for gutting childhood cancer research, but it seems he has a different plan to end child cancer in the US. Deportation.

My friend Sue!!!

HAPPENING NOW: Protesters have gathered outside a federal courthouse in Milwaukee following the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan

Thank you, @baldwin.senate.gov, for speaking out.

The Trump administration has started charging judges. We need to rally around this judge and make sure that this lawlessness does not go unnoticed. This is a scare tactic. The time to call your representative is now. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #MomSky

🌟🌟 “She did the right thing and stood up to the Trump/Patel Gestapo. ✊ “ 🌟🌟

Trump’s administration is trying to use the power of the state to supplant reality with conspiracy theories. And he’s willing to use the criminal justice system to do it. Some thoughts on another grim step toward authoritarianism. Gift link: wapo.st/3RHcnBk

We are literally being led by the dumbest people alive

Karoline Leavitt really memes what she says.

Any Republican who says the vote they just took on the budget won't cut Medicaid to pay for a $7 trillion tax cut for billionaires like Elon Musk is lying to their constituents.

Trump says the US has spent $350 billion in Ukraine, and Europe has done less than us. Is this true? Nope, take a look and be sure to like and subscribe to my new YT channel youtu.be/ZROD0LjN3HU?...

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

Records are meant to be broken. Congrats @booker.senate.gov for stepping up and standing up for the American people. Blazing your own path for the W 👏👏👏👏👏

WISCONSINITES: Remember to vote today! myvote.wi.gov

Cory Booker has been holding the Senate floor for *15 hours* to call out Trump’s harm to Americans. More of this energy from every Democrat please.

Real whiplash watching the Trump message go from “we’ll fix everything on day one” to “suck it up buttercup, this is gonna hurt.”

Important. Either Trump is so far gone mentally he doesn’t know what he’s doing, or people are acting in his name without his knowledge. This was an order with enormous implications, and the President of the United States says he didn’t do it.

"The entire drama—from Hitler’s first swearing in to passage of the enabling law, which destroyed the German constitution—took 53 days." This is not "Trump is Hitler." It's "Things can get out of control quickly when you play with fire."

Every day and in every way, Trump and his cohorts take another shit on the Constitution they have promised to revere and defend.

#econsky. Add it to your feed

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

“He is hurting the people,” Carey said. “He’s hurting the very people that voted for him, let alone the rest of us — he does not care. And you don’t get to stand up there and let it happen if you are an elected official, regardless of where you’re from.” avlwatchdog.org/army-veteran...

This Space X rocket ship is the greatest Ponzi scheme ever devised! We could save the government billions if we just scrapped this failed joke of a business!! #GroundControlToMajorFail #DOGETheFallingSpaceCraft! www.nytimes.com/2025/03/06/s...

Someone needs to explain to our Sec of Commerce how capitalism works. America has a GLOBAL TRADE SURPLUS on services. Services have the highest margins and profits of our exports. That is where capital and expertise focused. It is why we dominate in tech globally.
