As I predicted, we are now entering an era where we cannot necessarily trust data coming from the federal govt on things like inflation. Something to watch VERY closely for GDP, unemployment, everything. www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-...

“One Big Beautiful Bill”? Try one big, bold-faced lie. They swore this mess wouldn’t add to the deficit…but the nonpartisan budget office says otherwise. $2.4 TRILLION added to the deficit—and for what? Tax cuts for the rich.

Big things get done in Illinois. We've balanced our budgets, raised the minimum wage, enshrined the right to choose, enacted a nation-leading climate plan, and rebuilt our infrastructure. And I look forward to getting even more done for working families across our state.

My home of Missoula just voted to establish the pride flag as an official government flag of the city, thereby circumventing the state's asinine pride flag ban. 🏳️‍🌈 Missoula is once again showing how to fight back against policies that seek to erase the LGBTQ community.

Ukraine did something that the US and Europe failed to do for nearly half a century, it crippled Russia’s ability to launch nuclear weapons and long range strikes. At least one arm of Russia’s nuclear trident was destroyed. Ukraine did that, on its own, successfully. Have you said thank you yet?

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

In their bill, Republicans passed steep cuts to food assistance, Medicaid, and put Medicare at risk. For me, that’s a moral line. It makes no sense in this time of incredible struggle when families are having such a hard time making ends meet to go after food assistance and Medicaid.

Trump's tax and spending bill threatens millions by slashing food and health programs to fund tax cuts for the wealthy. The Congressional Budget Office warns it will add $3.8 trillion to the national debt. A gamble with people's lives. #3E

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

The Federal Park service brought in 55 Billion last year, but only cost the Federal Government 3.5 Billion to run. No waste, fraud and abuse. Just an evil asshole that doesn't want us to have a Park service.

Conversion therapy is based on the hateful idea that being part of the LGBTQ+ community is an illness that requires treatment. It’s a dangerous sham practice that has been completely debunked and should be banned nationwide—I introduced a bill with @booker.senate.gov to do just that.

I must say, as the tracker of broken norms, that he is definitely slowing down in these last three weeks as his polling numbers dropped and the economy falters from his trade war. I hope you will take some comfort in the fact that pushback has been very successful, especially the court rulings, 1/3

The boring white men with money and power… the delusional ones who think they’re fascinating and hilarious… the ones who demonize anyone who doesn’t adore them… They’re killing this country (and us) to get more money and more power. Because they can’t get laid without it.
