When following the headlines fills me with despair, it's comforting to cuddle with a family member who remains blissfully unconcerned about fascism. That would be Trixie (a/k/a Bat-Mite).

Our Earth is full of amazing wonder, beauty, and life. We must protect it–especially from the onslaught of attacks by the Trump administration. We must ensure that everyone has clean water, clean air, and clean sources of energy.

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.

The President of the United States is utterly out of control and possibly out of his mind, and only the Supreme Court of the United States can deliver the absolutely vicious permanent slapdown this moment requires. If that does not happen, the options for Americans appear to dwindle precipitously.

Senator Chris Van Hollen just met with El Salvador's Vice President Félix Ulloa. The VP told Van Hollen that the reason they are holding Kilmar Abrego Garcia at CECOT is because the Trump administration is paying them to do so. This is what FASCISM TYRANT looks like. Thoughts?

Trump seems to think he’s so above the law that he refuses to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia back to the United States from El Salvador. He should be held in contempt of court!

The Dictator of El Salvador had a meeting with Trump in the Oval Office. Bukele: "In fact Mr President, you have 350 million people to liberate. But to liberate 350 million people you have to imprison some." Trump nodded: "Yes, absolutely." Both of these men are insane.

US Senator Mark Warner @markwarner.bsky.social (D-Virginia): ""Laura Loomer is a crank, she said she is a proud white nationalist, she attacked Ron DeSantis' wife about her breast cancer. In any other (admin) you wouldn't let a crazy person like this within 100 feet close to the White House."

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Trump broke the law enacting these 180 tariffs without Congress. Abuse of power. How is presidential immunity relevant in any of his destruction. Shine the lights on Doge and Musk and Trump. None of this ‘run out the clock starting at the bottom’ shit. Musk. Trump. Doge. Inspector General AF

If you shop at the grocery store, fill your car with gas, or care about inflation and our nation’s economy, this is your fight too. These illegally fired FTC commissioners work to hold big corporations accountable—and now they’re suing. We've got to have their backs.

The arrest and detention of Rumeysa Ozturk is deeply disturbing. The Trump admin is ripping students like Rumeysa out of their communities without due process. We will not stay silent. @pressley.house.gov, @markey.senate.gov, and I led over 30 of our colleagues in demanding answers.

Today a court blocked co-Presidents Trump and Musk from shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. This fight isn't over. The case will continue in court, and all of us need to keep fighting for the agency that has returned $21 billion to families who were scammed.

Delaying a bad plan — which effectively denies people their Social Security — is insufficient. Elon Musk's DOGE must take their hands off Social Security. Keep the pressure on Republicans in Congress and Donald Trump to reverse these cuts. YOUR voice makes a difference.

Republicans in the Senate voted tonight while no one is watching to fatten Wall Street profits by jacking up overdraft fees on you. So much for lowering costs.

Trump's Social Security nominee just lied to the Finance Committee, claiming he hasn't been involved in any DOGE plans to gut Social Security. My office has a whistleblower that says otherwise. We brought the receipts.

To any and all friends or acquaintances overseas. Cancel any plans you have to visit. I know that isn't what I am supposed to say and I know it will hurt businesses here that need tourist dollars. But don't come here. Stay safely at a distance.

Dr. Oz wants the power to run health care for 66 million American — but he dodged paying $400,000 in Medicare taxes. Dr. Oz won’t even pay his fair share into Medicare. How can we trust him to lead it?
