AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal—convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.

The Trump administration pays El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's government $6 million to house prisoners it sends to CECOT. That’s the prison where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is currently being held. If the US controls the purse strings, then don’t pay El Salvador until Abrego Garcia comes home.

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

Trump is preparing to defund Maine’s public schools after he demanded a “full throated apology” from their governor for not obeying him and she is refusing to do so.

The message China is sending to the US is “we don’t need you and we don’t care, we have survived for 5,000 years (for most of which the US didn’t exist) and we’ll survive for another 5,000” It’s not looking good for the USA.

Has the Supreme Court really become so woke that it's demanding an innocent man be returned from an El Salvador torture prison?
