Pay attention: Senate Republicans are trying to ram through extreme anti-abortion judges right under our noses. Their goal? A nationwide abortion ban. I’ll keep fighting back against nominees that want to take away our freedoms.

If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge. Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden. This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy. It’s not America. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

This is bad. Republicans have fixed the contempt provision in the billionaire bailout bill so bond has to cover the costs. It can’t be $1 anymore. This will neutralize the court’s ability to hold Trump in contempt, and only rich people will be able to file injunctions against the government.

Dem Senators, shut down Senate until Noem resigns after Sen Padilla violently arrested. Sen Padilla (D-CA) tried to ask question at press conference in LA hosted by Noem, Sec'y of DHS. For doing so, law enforcement removed Padilla forcibly, handcuffed him, and pushed him to the ground. NOEM MUST GO!

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Not taking anything away from Senator Padilla because he was treated atrociously But I JUST want to remind everyone that the Congresswoman LaMonica McIver, a Black woman, was just indicted for just asking questions at an ICE detention center in her state Keep that same energy of support for her

Don't let them lie to you about Senator Padilla. DHS is claiming the agents DID NOT KNOW he was a senator. He CLEARLY says (BEFORE he is tackled and cuffed) "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have a question for the secretary."

Republicans like to call their legislation a “Big, Beautiful Bill.” Today the nonpartisan CBO showed us the truth: their bill would kick almost 11 million people off their health insurance & balloon the deficit by $2.4T. That’s not “beautiful”—it’s the Great Betrayal in action.

Wells Fargo has a long record of breaking the law—and this past year, was caught violating anti-money laundering, consumer protection, and securities laws. Lifting the asset cap was a grave mistake. The Fed must show its work and turn over Wells Fargo's exam reports to Congress.
