Our resistance is growing. Continue to speak up. We are prevailing. Rise up! Onward! open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

What RFK Jr. said was reprehensible. He should be ashamed of himself and step down.

RFK Jr.’s lies about autism are disgraceful — and I won't share them to spread misinformation. He consistently undermines public health and reinforces dangerous myths. In Illinois, we stand with those with autism, and I’ll keep fighting for inclusion, science, and the truth.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

On CNBC today, Elizabeth Warren had to explain to anchor Sara Eisen that Congress can in fact take away Trump's tariffs authority, and also that America is not ruled by a king who can make laws by decree.

Well Deserved

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism. It’s disgusting and dangerous. If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign. Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness. To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

Quick point. Congress can use the spending fight in September (remember Chuck Schumer surrendered till then) to prevent a single dollar from being used to house prisoners in El Salvador.

Got a new one today when the press secretary accused him of being a "human trafficker" just absolutely out of thin air!

I'm not sure I mentioned this lately, but Trump is a genuinely terrible, shit-tier President.

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

There will be more cases like Kilmar Abrego Garcia. More illegal deportations. More mistakes. And they’re laying the groundwork to deport American citizens - permanently - to El Salvador’s prisons. It’s not hypothetical. Republicans must join us & draw the line. Or watch our democracy disappear.

Van Hollen: "If the president gets to shred the Constitution and ignore the Supreme Court in this case, it is a very short path to the president ignoring court orders in other cases. So every American should care about this."

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Deporting America citizens to a foreign gulag seems…dictatory.

Donald Trump is deporting legal US residents to a foreign gulag, and he has stated publicly that he is moving on to citizens next. This is a Constitutional crisis. Will a single Republican stand up for our Constitution?

Harvard University: “We have informed the [Trump Administration] through our legal counsel that we will not accept their proposed agreement. The University will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights.” 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 view.hu.harvard.edu?qs=351b45ebf...

MTG is the dumbest person on the planet.. except when it comes to the stock market? 🤔

🚨BREAKING: Four more Big Law firms join the ranks of Trump collaborators. A&O Shearman, Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins and Simpson Thacher all capitulated. In a sign of growing inflation, each firm agreed to $125m in Trump approved pro bono. Shameful.

They are obviously slow learners

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

Elections have consequences

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

Clearly

Tank the market with tariffs so rich people can buy low then “pause” the tariffs and all those people make vast sums of money?

2019 is calling and saying, hey, why didn’t you listen

What is happening right now — and adding the bond market crash to the list of issues — is solely a creation of the President of the United States and everyone who enabled him in this foolish endeavor.

The Associated Press wins reinstatement to White House events after judge rules government can’t bar its journalists, citing the 1st Amendment.

BREAKING: Judge Trevor McFadden, appointed by Trump in his first term, issues a preliminary injunction ordering the Trump admin to rescind its decision blocking AP access to the Oval Office & Air Force One. McFadden found the admin issued an unconstitutional viewpoint-based restriction on the AP.
