The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the appearance of corruption promotes corruption.

Sent to my Repub Rep: I thought I would share what a true patriot and leader and representative of people does when the Maga people are over reaching.

Yes! But . . . How do we really stop their insanity? When can we the people have a vote of no confidence and impeach?

I scared about this. What can we the citizens do about this? To prevent it from getting this far? I propose we all go to our Repub reps offices and camp out in protest to their inability to do their job.

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.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Boycott mainstream news outlets. They are not holding this administration accountable. This is how we send them a message we are displeased.

Jewish students at Columbia have chained themselves to a gate (already locked) to protest ICE detentions of student protestors. They accuse members of our board of trustees of providing information about students to ICE and are demanding accountability.

Tonight, a Democratic candidate became the first Democrat to win the county in a federal election race since 1992. A simply stunning result. Trump won FL-1 by 37 points. Republicans have easily routed Democrats in Pensacola’s Escambia County for over 30 years. Not tonight.
