Foxx: This is the American Dream story they all claim to support. I’m a first-generation American, raised by a single mom in Section 8 housing. SNAP benefits—food stamps—put food on our table. Those social safety nets—they are not handouts, they are hand-ups.

Fascists love to be scary. Being called a fascist or dictator makes them proud. What they can't handle is being mocked and laughed at. Being the butt of jokes is the one thing that will consistently make Trump melt down and lash out. It's our most effective weapon outside the courts.

Update: reports today that multiple legal observers were arrested today in New York at two separate immigration courts, for allegedly “obstructing” ICE. Not only that, apparently some immigration courts are barring the public from attending hearings. This mess is escalating fast.

This happened because of you. You protested at TeslaTakedowns and made his name and his company’s product reviled. You protested outside federal agencies slated for DOGE cuts. You barred doors, protected data. You sued and won. You WORE HIM OUT. Don’t let them spin it any other way.

Slow & steady wins the race! Big win for my union AFGE. A judge granted a preliminary injunction ruling that President Trump cannot implement mass layoffs of federal workers without the approval of Congress which created these agencies. #UnionStrong ✊🏾 click.actionnetwork.org/ss/c/u001.Xa...

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy. Now is the time for fearless leadership.

Sick. ICE arrested a U.S. citizen because they thought his REAL ID was fake. Leonardo García Venegas, born in Florida, was wrestled down to the ground, cuffed at a worksite & taken away. Only after hours—and his SSN—did they let him go. “No mistake,” DHS says. #MedSky #NewsSky #BlueSky

A thing about growing up poor, or even middle class in America, is that there comes a time when you look back on bad memories or traumatic experiences you saw and realize how many of them had something to do with a lack of money

Wow. This is major news. Judges discuss moving the U.S. marshals from the executive to the judicial branch. Not only would they protect judges from trump threats, but it would also make it easier for courts to order marshals to carry out court orders.

OUR FINANCIAL IMPLOSION CONTINUES #Moody’s has downgraded the United States’ debt, stripping the country of its last perfect #credit rating. The move could rattle financial markets next week and push up interest rates. Moody’s held a perfect credit rating for the United States -- AAA -- since 1917.

I stood on the House floor today to sound the alarm: HB 113 is a quiet coup. It erases legislative intent, silences agency expertise, and hands power to far-right courts. This is Project 2025 in action, right here in Texas. We must not obey in advance. We must stand in opposition. (2/2) #txlege
