As Members of Congress, we take an oath to defend the Constitution — the same oath that me, @reptedlieu.bsky.social, and every other service member has taken. We led 34+ House Democrats to demand accountability for the civilian detained by Marines in L.A. last week.

Trump’s disastrous policies have activated the American people. Trump cannot overcome the will of the people. Righteously: -exercise your right to freedom of assembly -exercise your freedom of speech This is how we save our country. And we’re going to flip the House.

Just talked to a trusted inside source—Trump’s inner circle is rattled by the No Kings protests nationwide. They didn’t mention Trump directly, but it’s clear they know just how toxic his brand has become. #NoKings

Absolutely horrified by the politically motivated attack on two Minnesota state lawmakers. Praying for the Hortman and Hoffman families. Political violence has no place in our society and those who commit it must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialJun 13(source)

The world is on fire. We cannot have an unqualified person playing Secretary of Defense. Hegseth has repeatedly made grave errors. He must resign. Also, Hegseth’s taxpayer funded Pentagon makeup studio / glam countertop can only go so far in covering up his incompetence.

“Pete is playing secretary,” one source said. “He’s not being secretary.” Read Kerry Howley’s exclusive look at the most damaging scandal to emerge from Hegseth’s Department of Defense to date: not poor operational security, but a protracted public attempt to destroy his own top advisors.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialJun 12(source)

Completely despicable actions by DHS, having Sen Alex Padilla being forcibly taken down. Why is @SecNoem afraid of answering questions? Even more Americans will now righteously exercise the right to protest. More will righteously monitor ICE. WE. WILL. NOT. BE. INTIMIDATED.

Inflation rose to 2.4%, higher than April.

Breaking news: Inflation heated up in May as more of President Trump’s tariffs began to take hold. The Labor Department’s consumer price index rose at an annual rate of 2.4 percent last month, up slightly from a 2.3 percent annual rise in April.

Peacefully protesting is a right. It’s completely un-American and needlessly provocative for Trump to deploy the National Guard and Marines against Americans. These are unlawful orders.

Reposted byTed Lieu

Rep. Ted Lieu@reptedlieu.bsky.socialJun 10(source)

Hegseth deployed troops to Southern California without funding for food, water, fuel, or equipment. Marines are trained for military combat – not law enforcement. Trump must rescind his orders, Hegseth must resign, & law enforcement should be handled by state/local authorities.

The right to peacefully protest is protected by the Constitution. But no one has the right to destroy property or commit violence. These are crimes and they will be prosecuted.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialJun 9(source)

Trump’s federalization of the CA National Guard under 10 USC § 12406 is illegal. The law requires that orders be issued “through the Governors of the States.” Gov Gavin Newsom has not issued the orders. Guard troops in LA are following unlawful orders. law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10…

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialJun 8(source)

I agree with Gov Gavin Newsom that Trump’s take over of the CA National Guard is purposefully inflammatory. I also note this federalization is being done under 10 U.S.C. § 12406, which means the Guard troops will still be subject to the prohibitions in the Posse Comitatus Act.

The federal government is moving to take over the California National Guard and deploy 2,000 soldiers. That move is purposefully inflammatory and will only escalate tensions.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialJun 7(source)

WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED. I stand with SEIU California. I stand with President David Huerta. As Americans, we have the absolute First Amendment right to peacefully observe. As a result of extreme ICE actions, more Americans will righteously exercise our rights to monitor ICE.

SEIU California

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Maybe this is old fashion, but the goal of government is not to hasten the deaths of Americans. Republicans should reread the bible – Jesus did exactly the opposite of what they’re doing with their Big Ugly Bill.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialMay 30(source)

GOP Senator Joni Ernst is correct that we all are going to die. But it shouldn’t be as a result of Republicans’ big, ugly bill.

Trump cares more about celebrities convicted of tax fraud than Americans who rely on Medicaid and SNAP.

When mother nature strikes, she doesn’t ask for your political affiliation first. Californians deserve disaster aid, just like any other state would.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialMay 27(source)

Another day, another scandal under Hegseth. This is not silly stuff like Hegseth using taxpayer funds for a Pentagon makeup studio. The allegation here is an illegal wiretap. If they used an illegal wiretap on a senior official, you think they wouldn’t hesitate to use it on you?

What do you get when you add deficit exploding tax cuts for billionaires to wide-ranging & indiscriminate tariffs? An economy that doesn’t work for everyday Americans.

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialMay 22(source)

30-year mortgage rates jump to 7.5%, one of the highest levels in the last two decades. Trump and Republicans reckless economic policies—as exemplified in their big, ugly bill that explodes the deficit—caused yields and rates to increase.
