If Jeff Bezos can send Katy Perry into space, he can pay a wealth tax so every American has debt-free healthcare.

He wants to build prisons in El Salvador for American citizens he doesn't like. Enough's enough. He needs to be stopped.

You have the right - the duty and obligation to not follow unlawful orders!

No lies detected from Congressman Dan Goldman 👇 #ResistTrump

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.

If I were Judge Xinis, I would order the government to produce, in her courtroom, officials who were in a position to answer her questions and to do so under oath. Letting DOJ continue to prevaricate and deflect responsibility in written submissions seems ... insufficient at this point.

If the government can “deport” you for having beliefs they don’t like, none of us is free. Call it what you want, but it sure as shit ain’t democracy.

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Don’t be fooled — the SAVE Act is a Voter Suppression Act. Let’s call it like it is!

No Doubt In My Mind! Criminal Behavior Continues…

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. We must overturn Citizens United. Every day, it corrupts our politics and erodes our democracy.

It’s because I’m a fiercely proud American that I’m a fiercely embarrassed American.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

I know it makes me a bad person, but yeah, I'm looking forward to that headline.

I’m not embarrassed because I didn’t vote for 👿 but I am pissed 😡 to say the least!

69M married women could lose their voting rights if the SAVE Act is passed. Transgender individuals too. Why? Absent a valid passport, you must present a birth certificate *with the same name as your registration* to be registered. This is insane! Hands Off Her Vote

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.
