Senator Alex Padilla is a good man and principled public servant. The brazen and aggressive manhandling of Senator Padilla by the Trump administration is a sickening disgrace. Anyone who assaulted the Senator should be held accountable. No one is above the law.

The GOP Tax Scam will rip healthcare away from 16 million everyday Americans in order to reward their billionaire donors. There are 53 Republicans in the Senate. We only need four to join us and we can stop the one big ugly bill from ever becoming law.

Donald Trump incited a violent mob to attack the Capitol. Hundreds of dangerous felons who brutally beat police officers with impunity were then pardoned by the President on his first day in office. Don’t ever lecture America about law and order.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

The Trump tariffs are raising costs on everyday Americans and driving the economy toward a recession. The Court of International Trade has now correctly concluded he doesn’t even have the legal authority to impose them. Enough.
