Trump thinks domestic abuse is just “a little fight with the wife” and shouldn’t be considered a crime.
Disgusting. And not a great look for the guy who’s hiding the Epstein Files.
The American People aren’t fooled—Trump’s tariffs are a disaster.
He can lie and say the economy is “hot,” but when folks are in the checkout line at the store, they see the truth.
Who the hell asked for this? Oh right—the ultra rich CEOs that Trump’s Transportation Secretary used to represent.
Every chance they get, these guys side with the billionaires over the people.
I’ll always stand up for our LGBTQ community—and stand in the way of anyone who threatens their rights & dignity.
Loved supporting the talented artists & performers at Pride Worcester’s Festival. I’ll continue fighting to ensure our community is welcoming to everyone.
🚨CAUGHT ON CAMERA 🚨
A top official just ADMITTED there is a MASSIVE, ongoing Epstein Files cover up at Trump’s @DOJ.
Says they’ll “redact every Republican” from the files and that Ghislane Maxwell was offered something to “keep her mouth shut.”
RELEASE THE FILES!
Americans don’t trust Washington—and why should they? Too many members abuse their office for personal profit.
That’s why I’m backing the Restore Trust in Congress Act to ban Congressional stock trading. My colleagues must choose: serve the public or serve themselves.
Trump's tariffs are crushing working people: for the first time since the pandemic, unemployed Americans now outnumber job openings.
He’s running the economy into the ground—just like his failed businesses.
Trump just called the Epstein Files “irrelevant.” Tell that to the victims.
Netanyahu is bombing one of the last places where Palestinians can shelter. Where are these refugees supposed to go? This is ethnic cleansing—plain and simple.
Secretaries Rubio & Hegseth: do you care that kids are going to sleep unsure if they’ll wake up? Stop arming war criminals!
The survivors support the Massie-Khanna bill, which demands the full release of the Epstein Files. Anything less is an insult to the victims. Speaker Johnson—why won’t you listen to their voices?
Why would Trump say that releasing a list of pedophiles is an act of “hostility” against him? I can think of only one answer…
I asked a simple yes or no question: do you support the bipartisan Massie-Khanna bill to demand the release of the Epstein Files?
Congressman Comer couldn’t answer. I wonder why?
Republicans continue to block the Epstein Files to protect their rich & powerful friends. Let America read what’s in there & decide for ourselves. What do they have to hide?
For years, Trump said he’d release the Epstein Files. His cronies at the FBI & DOJ built their careers on it. Now, they want to backtrack—and they think everyone will move on and forget. Not gonna happen.
Fact check: nearly everything Republicans just supposedly “released”…
…has already been released.
They are doing everything in their power to muddy the waters.
RELEASE. THE. FILES.
The United States has a long history of leading by example. Not anymore. Trump’s withdrawal is a massive gift to Xi, Putin & other tyrants who want to justify and defend their awful human rights record.
Why is Trump withdrawing from the UN human rights review? Because his administration routinely violates Americans’ rights. By dodging UN scrutiny, he hopes the world ignores ICE's abuses, DHS's illegal deportations & his attacks on LGBTQ people.
“Neither the president nor his family will ever engage in conflicts of interest.”
—Karoline Leavitt
Trump: kills crypto crime investigations, cuts regulations, installs crypto-friendly regulators…and rakes in $5 billion from his crypto scam.
I just signed Rep. Massie’s discharge position to force a vote on the Epstein Files.
If Speaker Johnson wants to block it, he has a fight on his hands–and a lot of explaining to do.
Under Trump, the rich get more. You get less.
On Labor Day, let’s all recommit to fighting back.
