Our oldest daughter just drove by an anti-Trump protest in Kansas with three women holding signs. She was so excited to see them that she immediately sent me text. This is just to say, your tiny protests make a difference. We see you. We are proud of you.

You cannot say you are for democracy and rule of law but give Trump a pass on constitutional and War Powers Resolution requirements. You cannot. The essence of democracy and rule of law is to uphold both despite an outcome you like.

This is not hard. Every Republican member of Congress should join Democrats in condemning this administration’s vicious arrest of Sen Padilla. “A Republic if you can keep it” is now.

While MOST Americans are struggling to afford healthcare, buy food, and purchase homes, SOME are getting $400M as a gift... Not to mention BILLIONS of tax dollars that would go into installing equipment into this thing. All we ever asked for is affordable housing and healthcare!!

And just to draw out the logic here: Trump's goal is to stoke an environment of such enormous fear that immigrants leave the U.S, to avoid the risk of being trapped in a hellish prison camp for life, and the threat that similar tactics will be deployed on U.S. citizens keeps the rest of us in line

Sen. Van Hollen deserves a ton of praise. The rest of the Democratic party needs to look at what he's doing, stiffen their spines and fight. We can beat these fascists, but we can't "bipartisanship" our way out. We must fight.

Fascism is when Donald Trump bans 1600+ vetted Afghan Muslim refugees who helped USA against the Taliban—but now issues an Executive Order accepting white Afrikaner South Africans as refugees to the USA. It was never about justice or national security. It was always about advancing white supremacy.

Thank you to everyone who stands with USAID. Share far and wide. Unfortunately we don’t have $40 million to buy up ads during the Super Bowl. Even if we did, we’d use it to support the U.S. economy while feeding kids around the globe. #StandWithUSAID #SaveForeignAid m.youtube.com/watch?v=PqUE...

friendly reminder that the best case scenario over the coming years is that a lot of people say "I supported Trump but this isn't what I wanted at all" and when they do that it's gonna be really, really important that we say "welcome in," not "fuck you, we told you so"

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love. I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

It shouldn't be too much to ask for senators to oppose unconditional pardons for people found guilty of assaulting Capitol Police officers. I'm introducing a simple, one-line resolution condemning these pardons & will try to pass it on the Senate floor this week.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)
