The Supreme Court has become a rubber stamp for Trump and corporate interests. It desperately needs reform.
I break down the 8 cases betraying the Court’s partisanship and bias for big money, and the reforms that would fix the Court.

Congratulations to Christina Klayko on completing the Western States Endurance Run, covering almost half of the width of California. Your story is an inspiration to all of us!

Three American servicemembers were tragically killed in the Iran war this weekend.
It's clear that while this war rages on, the American people remain in the dark about the President’s strategy and war aims.
How long will Republicans in the Senate allow this to continue?
Trump gave a rambling primetime speech about “election security” last week. The only thing it revealed is that the greatest threat to our elections comes from within. It comes from him.
We break down his worst lies from the speech.
Trump's return to a trade war with Canada further imperils American businesses and industries – like California wine – that rely on Canadian markets.
As Canada faces a serious natural disaster at home, this is the wrong message to send to our northern neighbor.

This latest attack on the freedom of the press, including weaponizing the FBI to subpoena even family members of journalists, shows how far Donald Trump is willing to go to hide the truth.
If the $400 million plane Qatar gifted the President of the United States is still not safe enough, and Trump is using it against the advice of his own Secret Service, the American people deserve to know.
The Supreme Court, and our federal judiciary at large, must be held to the highest standard — at a minimum it must follow the same ethics rules that apply to other federal officials. Today it does not. Cases should be decided based on merit, not personal profits. Americans deserve nothing less.
This must be just the beginning. We need a whole set of strong reforms to the Supreme Court.
Comprehensive reform must include:
✔️ Term limits for Justices
✔️ An enforceable code of ethics
✔️ Expanding the Court
✔️ Prevent Supreme Court Justices and other federal judges from participating in cases where they hold personal financial interests
✔️ Enact a ban on individual stock trading by Justices and other federal judges
✔️ Expand the Freedom of Information Act to the federal judicial system
The Supreme Court is out of control and nakedly partisan.
Today I'm making another push to strengthen accountability, transparency, and ethical standards across the federal judiciary.
Here's what the bills I'm introducing would do: 🧵
This is worth a few thousand words.
Each time a servicemember is lost is a terrible reminder that those who choose to wear the uniform of our nation shoulder the greatest risk, and pay the highest price, for war.
I’m devastated to learn of the loss of two U.S. servicemembers and another missing in Jordan, and join every American in sending prayers to their loved ones in this heartbreaking moment.
We need to understand what role he played in helping his family’s company in the midst of the DOJ overturning 30 different gun safety regulations in the past year.
I’m working to get those answers before Blanche faces a confirmation vote.
Todd Blanche told a reporter this spring he was “part of the gun industry”.
Maybe that’s because his mother-in-law is the CEO of a gun company. 🧵
Donald Trump is using the same old playbook to discredit our elections in advance.
He knows Republicans are in trouble this November and wants to lay the predicate to interfere, even before a single ballot is cast.
He fears voters and facing their growing wrath over rising costs and corruption.
By now it should be obvious that Trump intends to repeat his playbook from 2020, and attempt to deny any result he does not like. And tonight was just another attempt by him to avoid accountability and defeat in November.
What the President presented tonight was not a leveling with the American people. It was a renewed attempt to inject fear and cloud reality ahead of the next election in November and provide pretext for seizing voter data, and discrediting and interfering with election results.
