Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

Millions of Americans are one illness away from financial ruin. Healthcare shouldn’t be a luxury for the rich—it should be a guarantee for all. We need universal, publicly funded care. It’s time. #HealthcareForAll

The GOP Tax Scheme represents the largest wealth transfer from the poor to the rich in American history.

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

I feel like I've entered the twilight zone. Republicans are bragging about tax cuts for gun silencers while trying to kick 14 MILLION Americans off their health care.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

I don't understand how jails can get government contracts that pay for each person they take in, but hospitals can't.

🧵This is the cruelty they don’t want you to see. Yorely Bernal was deported to Venezuela. Her partner, Maiker Espinoza, exiled to El Salvador’s brutal CECOT prison camp. No criminal records. Their 2-year-old daughter, Antonella, is still in DHS custody. Read on… www.nytimes.com/2025/04/29/w...

You should all know that my 17.11 year old graduated college today with her AA in Elem. Ed. She graduates HS on 5/23 and she turns 18 in June. Did I mention she frosted top 10 (#9/762). I’m so proud of her and everything she’s done/will do. 😍

House GOP votes to allow ICE to deport even US citizens! They voted AGAINST protecting citizens from unlawful detention. Demand your Senator stop this: bit.ly/hellorep. Join us in the streets for May Day to defend democracy: www.FiftyFifty.one @meidastouch.com @ericswalwell.bsky.social

Name & shame these "agents." Make these "ICE" thugs famous so wherever they go they are shunned, spat at & harassed. Sand in the gears, buggers in their fries! Don't make it easy for the Gestapo to abuse & harass. Harass back. Get close up photos of their faces, ask for their names.

THIS IS WILD‼️ Florida got $67M from a Medicaid fraud settlement. Instead of using it for actual health care, Casey DeSantis funneled $10M to a “charity” she controls. That “charity” passed it to anti-abortion and anti-marijuana groups—who then helped fund GOP campaigns. Both measures lost!

While Trump flip flops again on China tariffs, says he will lower/end tariffs on China, China is not backing down, is negotiating with South Korea to stop Korea’s exports of China’s rare earth materials to the USA. Trump did this 👇 www.reuters.com/markets/comm...

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring all removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

Presidents Trump of the U.S. and Bukele of El Salvador said Monday they had “no basis” to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Maryland man who wrongly deported there last month. No basis? Trump is treating federal law & court orders as trash. apnews.com/live/donald-... bsky.app/profile/trib...

🚨🚨 The House is pushing through the Senate's fake-math amendment to their Medicaid-destroying budget TODAY. And now, they're also sneaking a provision into the procedural rule that will block any attempt to undo Trump's tariffs. Demand your House Rep VOTE NO on both the Rule and Budget Resolution!
