Yesterday, Trump signed an executive order banning transgender women from competing in sports at federally-funded schools. This is a cruel, invasive action that will harm women and girls across the country. Let’s talk about it.🧵

🚨NEW: I joined 150+ House Democrats in demanding answers from the Treasury Secretary about Elon Musk’s access to sensitive data and classified Treasury payment systems. We’re working to stop the richest man in the world from rooting around in your Social Security and Medicare unchecked.

Put pressure on any airline where you're a member of the mileage plan. File a complaint form and tell them how much travel you're going to cancel or not book in the first place. Send the industries after the Republicans.

Do you have republican reps? Now is the time to call. They only need to flip 3 to keep Musk out of your most sensitive data. Right now he may have access not only to your SSN and tax records, but also potentially whatever bank accounts you use to pay taxes/receive refunds.

The first Trump years had the same progression. The Times was constantly stealing and sanitizing our stories at The Daily Beast days later, or friends at Buzzfeed or Vice, no attribution. Cable news, realizing how deeply unpopular Trump is and needing real reporting, skipped the line to talk to us.

NEW — I'm told FDA supervisors called employees today to stress return to office dates in apparent effort to pressure them into taking deferred resignation deal & didn't mention deadline is no longer tonight (thanks to court order). Being done by phone to avoid paper trail for unions, source says.

This is not a U.S. Marshal, Federal Protective Service, or any other federal law enforcement officer. This is a private security guard from Triple Canopy. He has no authority to block members of Congress who have oversight of the EPA from entering the building.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

Project 2025 architect Russell Vought was just confirmed as Director of OMB. He wants to dismantle the federal government and now, because of the GOP, he’s running it. Every Republican voted for him. They own the harm he’s about to do to millions of families across the country.
