Deploying troops and federal agents to California's cities has never been about crime or public safety.
Or quelling some kind of insurrection.
For Donald Trump, it has always been about control.

By refusing to work with Democrats, Republicans are willing to DOUBLE the health care costs for millions of people.
It’s shameful.
The Roberts Court is now on the verge of erasing one of the key achievements of the Civil Rights Era.
And with it, diluting minority voting strength and doubling down on gerrymanders that could install a permanent Republican majority in Congress.
If President Trump wants to improve things, he should work with local leaders in a spirit of cooperation and coordination — not against them.
I encourage all residents to keep any protests peaceful, and not provide the provocation the president seeks to further militarize our communities.
As the great city of San Francisco continues to move forward, it needs a dependable federal partner, not a provocateur.
Donald Trump's deployment of federal agents to San Francisco will not make the city safer or improve the quality of life for residents.
It will only serve to inflame tensions, which is tragically what the president seeks. 🧵
Another illegal military strike on a boat — this time in the Pacific — broadening the Administration’s deadly campaign to another ocean.
Once again, there is no detail on who was killed or why.
The urgency increases: Congress must stop America from being dragged into another war.
Steve Witkoff promised to divest of his crypto assets linked to the Trump family’s crypto schemes.
But 10 months in, and he still hasn’t.
So many of these assets involve Middle East countries with an interest in U.S. policy.
The conflicts of interest are massive. We need answers.
Trump may soon try to justify his abuse of our armed forces by invoking the Insurrection Act.
Today, I joined my colleagues to advance legislation that would stop him.
For three weeks the government has been shut down.
For three weeks, people’s health costs have spiked.
And the President and Republicans in Congress are having a picnic?
It’s no picnic for the American people.
This is the reality of Donald Trump’s America.
Another parent of a U.S. service member gets deported.
On his way to pick up his pregnant daughter.
While wearing his “Proud to be the father of a U.S. Marine hat.”
This is cruelty as policy.
The truth about Emil Bove's conduct at DOJ would not have been fully known, if it weren't for a whistleblower.
As this administration makes a habit of misleading the courts, and ignoring court orders, speaking up could mean exposing real lawlessness.
Happy Diwali to everyone celebrating in California and across the world!
During this Festival of Lights, may good triumph over evil, and light over darkness.
Only in Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon does this apparently need to be said:
We should not be firing live artillery over our freeways.
This Trump government shutdown is not like his last one.
That was about building a wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for.
This is about raising health care costs for millions of Americans.
It’s time to end the shutdown and fix the Republican-made health care crisis.
Two and a half centuries ago, a handful of farmers and printers and philosophers looked across an ocean at the most powerful man in the world — and said no to a king.
Today, in town and cities across America, we again say No Kings.
Let’s be clear: Trump’s attacks on California's flood control projects started long before this shutdown.
This flimsy pretext should not distract from the fundamental truth of his presidency:
Trump is only interested in representing states that voted for him.
He is half a president.
Congress has not authorized military force against Venezuela.
But the Trump administration has made it clear they may not stop at boat strikes in the Caribbean.
We must stop the U.S. from being dragged–intentionally or accidentally–into full-fledged war in South America.
