A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

A new bill would limit judges' ability to enforce the law to protect people from President Trump’s anti-civil rights agenda. Tell Congress: Defend our courts from President Trump.

@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

Pierre Poilievre doesn’t talk about men’s biological clocks, sperm counts, or prostate health—because that would be invasive and absurd. So why is it acceptable for him to comment on women’s reproductive timelines? It’s not policy. It’s not leadership. It’s misogyny. #NeverPoiLIEvre

Tennessee disregarding driver's licenses by itself is terrifying, especially since we border so many states. What's next? Marriage certificates, birth certificates, etc. That would bring harm to both documented and undocumented migrants, and the LGBTQIA+ community. www.wkrn.com/news/tenness...

The First Amendment protects the right to communicate with the International Criminal Court and pursue justice for human rights violations. We're suing to stop the Trump administration from punishing Americans for their human rights advocacy.

Our infrastructure plan is focused on improving facilities to better serve those who serve us. That’s why I’m proposing $3 million for the first phase of a new hangar for our airmen at the 148th Fighter Wing.

Before the 2008 economic crash, I rang the alarm about the risks building in our economy. I’m doing it again. Our economy is flashing red warning lights as a result of Donald Trump’s economic sabotage. Read more from me about how we stop it: senatebankingdemocrats.substack.com/p/flashing-r...

We achieved a historic reduction in child poverty by expanding the Child Tax Credit. Democrats want to make that a reality again, so we introduced legislation this week to do it… while Republicans teed up a budget to slash Medicaid.

This era of mass grift—driven by one of the most corrupt administrations in American history—isn’t just a crisis. It’s a massive opportunity for the Democratic Party to lead an unapologetic, system-wide anti-corruption campaign.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?
