Obviously illegal, immoral, and just plain disgusting for a handful of young people to seize the personal and financial data of millions of others and hand it to a centibillionaire.

Americans are confused, scared and angered by President Trump’s escalating attacks on our independent, professional and dedicated civil service. That's why I convened top federal workforce experts for this emergency webinar sharing crucial information.

USAID isn’t about federal bureaucracy. I’ve been to several of the poorest countries in the world and seen the lifesaving impact it has on some of the world’s most desperate people.

I’m sure Americans at home and abroad all feel safer tonight now that Trump announced with Bibi that the US is going to take over Gaza, level all the buildings, and forcibly remove the population. Might want to cancel any vacation plans you may have had to Europe.

The Republican Congress has surrendered. They are no longer a functioning co-equal branch of government. Democrats need to do everything to not cooperate. Use your position to slow their fascist takeover. The time of “bipartisanship” and “finding common ground” is over. Now it’s time to fight.

If Trump destroys the Department of Ed to save money for his tax cuts, he’s taking money out of the mouths of babes to hand out to billionaires. The Department's elementary and secondary programs annually serve nearly 18,200 school districts and over 50 million students 1/
