But, but .. my “DOGE dividend.” 💔 www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-p...

DOGE is an insult to all Americans. Millions of people have been impacted by Elon Musk’s blind assault on our government. They have lost their livelihoods, security, and healthcare. And for what? www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

worth every second

The Trump administration is flooding the zone with national crises. But don’t let that distract you from one of the president’s key goals: to enrich himself and his friends. Read more in my latest for @nytopinion.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/04/27/o...

"Mr. Trump started his term with the second-lowest approval rating for a president in modern history. The only recent president to have started in a worse position was Mr. Trump the first time he took office..." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/u...

Resistance is NOT futile

1,300 people came out to our town hall last night in NJ-07, a Republican-held district. Like we've said, something big is happening in this country.

"Total cost of the US military’s operation against the Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen is nearing $1 bn in just under three weeks, even as the attacks have had limited impact on destroying the terror group’s capabilities." @cnn.com edition.cnn.com/2025/04/04/p...

Chair Comer denied our request for an official trip to El Salvador to advocate for due process and the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Pretty shameful. Good thing I don’t need Comer’s permission to get on a plane.

He would have never been appointed by a president who cared about our military. He’s a disgrace to the people in uniform who serve www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/u...

New Jersey's taxpayer dollars shouldn’t go to funding tax breaks for billionaires. If the federal government is going to keep cutting programs that working people depend on, give us our money back and we'll fund them ourselves.

As governor, I’ll work to drive down your costs from health care to housing, and fight the Trump-Musk chaos coming out of Washington. New Jersey won’t be pushed around. Not on my watch.

🚨Attention Members of the DC Bar🚨 Ballots went out today for key positions in the DC bar. Please vote for: Diane Seltzer for President Amanda Molina for Treasurer Note: Seltzer is running against Pam Bondi's brother. Get your ballot and vote ASAP.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?" Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’” “I’M PISSED!”

SCOOP: Senate Dems hit GOP on Social Security in first 2026 ads www.axios.com/2025/04/15/d...

DC Bar sent out the formal notice of elections. If you're DC barred, please vote and, in my opinion, you should vote for the person not named Bondi.

Remember SignalGate? (One of Trump's superpowers is being involved in so many scandals all the time that very few of them end up having staying power beyond a news cycle or two.)

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD

Trump seeks a fundamental reordering of the American economy that requires millions of people to commit trillions of dollars in capital and labor to rebuild industries the country hasn't had for decades. Thus far, there aren't many volunteers to start.

Members of Congress should never be allowed to trade stocks. Period.

No. You’ve been watching stock market fraud.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

This is really important and really good news. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!! This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference. #50501movement

When elected officials see mass protests and then immediately adjust their behavior in response, that is a good thing. That's how this should work! Celebrate Blumenthal for this. And then ask your own Dem senator what they're doing. And what Schumer is doing.

"His office leadership instructed appointees to act as servers for a multicourse meal. They dispatched a US Park Police helicopter for his personal transportation. On at least one occasion, a staffer was told to remake the cookies because the batch was subpar..." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Does anyone remember Signalgate?

I'm sure Americans everywhere can't wait.

The Shining City on a Hill has turned into a steaming pile of shit.

Hahahaha! Love this! @maddow.msnbc.com

Gov Walz with another zinger 🙂👍👏
