Donald Trump is a rapist

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.

If we want culture to thrive, not just survive, it’s on all of us now.

The Message Is Clear…. Let’s act on it!

The Supreme Court has ruled. Kilmar Abrego Garcia must be returned home. Now.

there is no “epidemic,” he is almost certainly going to say it is vaccines and, well, stay safe everyone.

EXCELLENT thread on this awful budget, the process it goes through in Congress, and what we can do along the way to help try and stop its passage…

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.

“It’s the most extraordinary attack on voting rights in American history,” Wilentz said. “This is an attempt to destroy American democracy as we know it. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/the...

🎶 Don’t know who might need this but it sure raised my endorphins hearing it tonight! 💝

I’ve got two Gen Z kids, and I can tell you—neither of them is going to line up to work in an iPhone factory. That’s just not how Gen Z rolls. If we’re serious about rebuilding U.S. manufacturing, we need to invest in training and build high-skill, high-value products—not chase cheap labor.

But of course they are. Make America Polluted Again. 🇺🇸

Don’t overthink this. He’s asking for bribes.

Today would be a great day to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks.

He wants only to rape this land of its natural resources and cheat its own people. He’s always been a disgusting pig and always will be.

The House just voted to make it harder for millions of Americans to vote—including women who changed their names after marriage. Call your senators and tell them to vote NO on the SAVE Act. You can use our easy click-to-call tool to make your calls right now: go.redwine.blue/SAVECYR-FB

He literally tweeted: This is a great time to BUY! Just hours ago. And then he paused tariffs. He’s literally committing crimes in front of the entire world. 😳

No matter how many times Republicans say otherwise, there is *no way* they can pay for their tax cuts for the rich without gutting healthcare and food assistance for the poor — along with other programs that millions of people rely on. Don't believe their lies for a second.

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.

The most corrupt administration in American history wants you to look the other way from this. We can't. We need answers.

If we destroyed all science books, the laws of nature would remain unchanged, and we would eventually rediscover them. If we destroyed all scriptures, new gods would be imagined.

“Well, I thought that people were jumping a little bit out of line. They were getting yippy, you know, they were getting a little bit yippy, a little bit afraid.” Thank you, BOND MARKETS.

Pretty much

Our OWN Democrats who voted YES on the SAVE bill: Jared Golden (ME) Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA) Henry Cuellar (TX) Ed Case (HI) How can we stop this madness if our own Reps & Senators aren’t united? @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov

Well, when this passes, the Republicans won’t be able to whine about “voter fraud” any more. So when we kick these fuckfaces to the street in 2026 and ‘28, NO whining allowed! And the massive mess from this voter suppression that will ensue is all their’s. (And also the already overwhelmed courts.)

🚨NEWS: the House just narrowly passed Republicans' SAVE Act. GOP House members think they can get away with disenfranchising millions of eligible voters across the country. I am leading the fight in the Senate to block it.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

My latest: This Jimmy Kimmel Graphic Hasn’t Gone Viral Yet, But it Should: Economic data can be best shown in charts, though it’s rare for those charts to become graphics for late night comedy shows…

SO much winning!

He just testified all morning about the reasons why the tariff policy was going to make America great. Then he checked his phone and realized everything he just said was canceled on Truth Social.

Imagine that. Is there any doubt in anyone’s mind they were tipped off? They are laughing at us all. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said, explaining he wants to see a deportation process “like (Amazon) Prime, but with human beings.”

Alien Enemies Act 2.0 begins now. SCOTUS ended Boasberg’s TRO, but ACLU has filed again using their new guidelines. This time in New York with new plaintiffs, but on behalf of all Venezuelans Trump intends to deport to CECOT nationwide.
