Once again, Trump creates an international crisis and then rides in on his hobby horse to “fix” it. Americans are tired of Trump’s circus of chaos.
After one year of Trump, Americans are worse off. His attacks on clean energy & handouts to Big Oil mean:
-Electric bills up 13%
-Natural gas bills up 60%
-165,000 clean energy jobs lost
-Renewable power for 13M homes killed
-30,000 lives/year at risk from gutted pollution rules
This isn’t a Board of Peace, it’s Cash for Trump.
An order to our military members to invade our ally Greenland, without congressional authorization, and with no self-defense basis, would be “manifestly unlawful” under the Uniform Code of Military Justice. They must disobey it.
Invoke the 25th Amendment.
Today we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who relentlessly fought for equal justice. And that justice is under threat right now as much as it has ever been. As Dr. King said: “The time is always right to do what is right.” So let’s fight for what’s right.
DHS wants your face in their database. No warrant. No consent. No accountability. This is what authoritarianism looks like in the digital age. It’s time to shut it down.
When we organize, we win. Advocates, providers, and community leaders came together to fight these cruel and reckless cuts. Trump and RFK Jr. must stop toying with people’s lives.
I welcome the release of four Armenian civilians who were unlawfully detained by Azerbaijan—but it is not enough. At least 19 Armenians remain wrongfully held. The State Department must intensify pressure on Azerbaijan. I will continue pushing until every last Armenian detainee is free.
The Trump administration is completely out of touch with the challenges families are facing. They have no idea how much dinner costs, no interest in actually making groceries affordable, and no clue how to make ends meet.
In the past 65 years, measles cases in the United States have plummeted. Why? Vaccines. But now, RFK Jr.’s vaccine conspiracies and lies are bringing measles back from the dead.
My statement opposing Trump’s illegal war for oil in Venezuela.
DHS’s use of facial recognition, social media monitoring, automated license plate readers, and predictive policing heralds a chilling new era of mass government surveillance. Trump is trying to make the government Big Brother again. It’s unacceptable and it must end now.
Electric prices are soaring. Why? Because Trump and his fossil fuel cronies are putting Big Oil profits over people. Americans are paying more while polluters get richer. I’m standing with @repstansbury.bsky.social to fight back for our planet, for working families, and for the truth.
