If you thought Brexit was the best example of a nation committing collective national suicide you would ever see…you were wrong.

I don’t do this often and promise not to make a habit of it, but just this once: WE TRIED TO WARN YOU!!!!!

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

We deserved some good news!

Thank you @booker.senate.gov for the strength and determination you’ve shown over the last 25 hours. This fight won’t be easy, but you’ve shown this country what it means to stand for what we believe is right. Proud to be your colleague and friend.

One person stepping up and and meeting the moment is the kind of courage we need in this moment. If we do only what we’ve been doing, nothing is going to change. @booker.senate.gov is showing us a different path 👊🏻🇺🇸🔥

Cory Booker is doing something incredible on the Senate floor. If you're not watching, you need to watch: www.youtube.com/live/Ej6locU...

We've all had enough of this piece of shit terrorist.

Oh my God, I just had a full night’s sleep and Cory Booker is still going… www.youtube.com/live/rCUK2Vb...

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

Was able to speak for a while this morning as @booker.senate.gov enters Hour 13 of holding the Senate floor. With two glasses of water and sheer determination, he’s telling the world that America is fighting back against this President. Go Cory!

Oh my fucking god

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred. As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

Sending up gratitude for the judges AND, more importantly, the lawyers who are willing to fight for the rule of law.

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp. As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

I wish I lived in a caring, thoughtful country where politics wasn't about winning an election next year, but helping our citizens this year.

FIRE HEGSETH! Nepotism is against the law. Absolutely moral failure. www.defensenews.com/pentagon/202...

We've heard concerning things about the Social Security Administration lately, so I decided to check for myself. SSA says Wednesday is the best day to call, so I called then. Their system told me there would be a two-hour wait time, told me to call back, and then just hung up.

Raskin: "Look at how sick that is. Basically anybody who has rendered any ruling they disapprove of they think should be removed from the bench. Any lawyer who has ever represented a party adverse to them they think should be cleared out of the way. That is in naked opposition to the rule of law."

BREAKING NEWS: Democratic Marine and Navy Veteran JoAnna Mendoza announces she’s running to flip Arizona’s 6th Congressional district from Red to Blue. And the best part? She can win. Blast this to space and watch her video so can take over this pivotal seat!

This is how it's done. A strong and principled response by WilmerHale to the illegal Executive Order attack - a form of attempted government intimidation declared unconstitutional by a federal judge. This is how to guard the rule of law.

Benghazi this shit. Make this Senate investigation last months and drag them in for questioning every day.

Plain clothes, unmarked cars, pulling people off the street. Gestapo shit.

Tax the rich!

To anyone who is not clear: The First Amendment protected Rumeysa Ozturk when she published her op-ed. The same way it has protected me. Rule of law means that we should be treated equally.

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.

Local Indivisible member was abducted by ICE in Washington. If you're in the state, please elevate this thread to your electeds and ask for their help in getting his release.

We need to see this kind of fight from every elected Democrat in office. Well done Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury.

Ossoff would make a brilliant minority leader.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

The Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, and the CIA Director, John Ratcliffe, not knowing DoD policy on classified and controlled unclassified information on unsecured devices is appalling. Good question, Senator Mark Kelly!

“The administration is playing a dirty game of chicken here. They are betting that Goldberg and the Atlantic’s staff are sufficiently responsible that [the administration] can lie with impunity…But that’s not how classified information works…The Atlantic should thus release the full text thread.”

This!

Jon Ossoff has got the kind of inner fire I’m always looking for in leaders. He has it. This video demonstrates what I’m talking about. www.mediaite.com/news/dem-law...

JUST IN: American Oversight is suing Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe et al, saying their messaging via Signal is a violation of the Federal Records Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

Today proved this Administration cannot handle national security secrets. They're amateurs, and our country is less safe because of them.
