Trump hit American families and businesses with illegal tariff taxes—and now he’s dragging his feet on giving the money back. Courts say it must be refunded, but small businesses and consumers in Austin are still waiting.

This is the kind of appalling action which occurs when our government is taken over by fanatics. DOGE employees used ChatGPT to decide which govt grants to cancel, defending the flagging of a documentary about Jewish women who were slave laborers in the Holocaust as "inherently related to DEI."
Thousands of Americans are demanding refunds on the illegal tariff taxes Trump forced them to pay. Now Malaysia has declared his trade deal null and void. Trump's tariff chaos is failing at home AND abroad.
The Trump regime doesn't want reporters. It wants only cheerleaders who ignore its repeated lies.
Trump is on track to join fellow authoritarians around the world in suppressing media coverage that doesn't conform with his propaganda.
Another Embassy under fire due to Trump’s reckless war of choice. In Baghdad — where Republicans poured nearly $1B into building a complex despite our opposition — American diplomats remain in the crosshairs. More American lives at risk and billions more now being wasted in Trump’s illegal war.
Republicans continue to make the public servants at TSA, Coast Guard and FEMA bear the burden of the reform that’s needed at ICE.
I am working alongside my Democratic colleagues to bring relief to workers, while holding ICE accountable for its wrongdoing.
With the price of oil soaring and Trump still entangled with Iran, he is already trying to change the subject. Our “acting President of Venezuela,” who claims he can pick the next leader of Iran, now states that he can do “anything I want” with Cuba. He really does believe he's king of the universe
[3/3] Libby & I are pleased to be members of Preservation Austin with more and more neighbors recognizing that preservation is not just about the past, it’s about a foundation for our future.
[2/3] Just as the strength of Austin is found in the diversity of our neighbors, so too Austin is a more wonderful place to call home when we preserve a diversity of home and business structures.
[1/3]Joining CEO Lindsey Derrington & Board President Miriam Conner to celebrate new @PreservationAtx HQ at the McFarland – McBee house. Learn more at 3805 Red River for a look at this unusual building.
[2/2] After declining to consult with allies before launching his reckless war of choice, and spending the past year insulting them, Trump now finds he needs them. The world economy, other countries, and American families are bearing the cost of his arrogant, reckless war.
[1/2] Friday, Trump's incompetent Secretary Hegseth said we "don't need to worry" about the Strait of Hormuz. Now, “go-it-alone” Trump is begging, then threatening other countries to help him fix the disastrous and dangerous self-described "mess" he has created.
After leaving our servicemembers unprotected from Iranian attack, Trump’s political action committee is now fundraising off of their unnecessary deaths.
His betrayal of his office continues with shameful disregard of the well-being of the troops he promised to protect.
[2/2] If he has any real interest in peace, Trump should immediately demand both Netanyahu and Hezbollah reach a durable ceasefire agreement, support the Lebanese army in seizing Hezbollah’s missiles, and sponsor eventual direct peace talks between Lebanon and Israel.
[1/2] Tens of thousands in Lebanon are once again caught in the crossfire between Hezbollah and Netanyahu. More than 850 people, at least 107 of them children, have been killed. Israeli evacuation orders and airstrikes have forced 800,000 people from their homes.
[3/3]…. every assault on our institutions, every abuse of power—many of us, including thousands of Austinites, are pushing back. I remain hopeful that ultimately our democracy will prevail and that international relations based on mutual respect, will be restored.
[2/3] Not really America first, but America only, claiming that the only way we win is when others lose, maligning our allies while aligning with our adversaries. Just know that for every outrageous tweet…
[1/3] Thanks to Austin Sister Cities & Kristie Bryant, SXSW, & Mayor Watson for great International Breakfast. As I spoke: This Administration represents the opposite of the approach that has brought Austin success.
Another gift from Trump to his pal Putin. This enables the Russians to continue killing long suffering, Ukrainian civilians. Of course, Trump’s reckless war against Iran is his greatest gift to the Russian war criminal.
The number of Americans lost in this unnecessary war of choice in Iran has risen to double digits.
Our servicemembers are heroes, but in the rush to war, the first six of them should never have been lost from being left unprotected from Iranian attack.
