We are in a constitutional crisis. The President is illegally sending people to foreign prisons. He’s defying a unanimous Supreme Court decision. Congress cannot be business as usual. We need to go to El Salvador and demand the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

We knew exactly what this administration was going to do because it was written in Project 2025. Folks can be surprised at how quickly it has moved, but no one can act like they didn't know.

Time to start impeachment proceedings. If the Supreme Court doesn’t matter, we do not have a working democracy. If we cozy up to an El Salvadoran thug, what are we?

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants. So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House. The hypocrisy is outrageous.

Booker: For people with 401(k) accounts and retirement savings, they’ve lost thousands. I’ve been hearing from people who had hoped to retire this year after working 25, 30, or even 35 years, but now they don’t think they have enough money because he’s taken $6 trillion overall out of the markets.

The GOP Tax Scam takes food out of the mouths of children to reward their billionaire donors like Elon Musk. Democrats will strongly oppose this reckless budget. And we can defeat it tomorrow on the House floor if just four Republicans join us.

Do you know who laid the foundation for the FDA? President Theodore Roosevelt. Do you know why? Because he read a great piece of literature that exposed the mistreatment of immigrant workers and the disgusting, unsanitary practices in meatpacking plants… The book is called “The Jungle.”

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble. For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity. What will you do?
