Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified. I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war. And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump. My statement:

The individual maximum a person can donate to a NYC mayoral candidate is $2100. Mike Bloomberg just donated $8.3 million to Andrew Cuomo through a super PAC. This is what a rigged campaign finance system, designed to let the wealthy buy elections, looks like.

The top .05% evade $120B in taxes, and employers steal $50B in wages from workers — each year. All other property theft totals $14B per year, with immigrants responsible for only a tiny fraction of that. CEOs & billionaires will always be a bigger threat to you than immigrants.

Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.

Newsom: Trump, he's not opposed to lawlessness and violence as long as it serves him. What more evidence do we need than January 6th?

Over 10,000 protesters marched peacefully through Downtown Los Angeles for a third straight day, their voices rising against ICE raids tearing families apart. In silence, they filled the freeway—an ocean of defiance and unity. No violence, just courage. This is what resistance looks like. 💪🔥✊🏽🕊️📣🇺🇸
