Prime Minister Netanyahu's lies about @mayor.nyc.gov don't change the fact that Netanyahu is a wanted war criminal who has blocked justice for Americans killed on his watch. If there's anyone who should be shamed & ashamed, it's him. He's lucky he was even allowed into our country.
Trump's ICE is disappearing thousands of people in their system, hiding their locations from loved ones & lawyers, & preventing them from exercising their constitutional rights.   This is the lawlessness Republicans keep writing blank checks for. Not another dime! apnews.com/article/ice-...
Almost a year after Congress near-unanimously mandated their release, Blanche & Trump have not released all the Epstein Files AND have unjustifiably redacted info. Judges are right to threaten contempt. This cover up is illegal. The survivors & the American people deserve answers.
This weekend thousands of American patriots stood up to Trump's attacks on the Kennedy Center with a simple message: HANDS OFF.   This & every monument in America belong to the people, not to any President. We must continue to speak out; silence only emboldens Trump's lawbreaking.
Trump is working overtime to rig the midterms & preserve his power — & with it, the power of billionaires over the American people. Free & fair elections are vital to our democracy & are our only way to end a broken status quo. We can't let him get away with his schemes.
Trump & Vought are politicizing critical medical research and make no mistake: in the long run, this will cost lives. Their continued attacks will put future cures and treatments at risk in service of their own political agenda.   Shameful.
Of course. While Trump opposes any common sense AI safety regulations, he & his sons are profiting off the free ride he’s giving the AI industry. Even with the future of humanity on the line, Trump’s profits come first. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
We will ensure Trump’s efforts to sabotage the Chesapeake Bay clean up don’t jeopardize the $90+ million in federal funds that are essential to protecting the Bay.  A healthy Bay is an economic & environmental lifeline for those in the watershed. We won't stop fighting for it.
Nowhere is Trump's lie that he would focus only on the 'worst of the worst' clearer than his assault on TPS. TPS holders are here legally, they’re vetted, & they contribute to our communities. America is a nation of immigrants. Trump's attacks on them are cruel & un-American.
We're in the midst of an illegal war that's costing Americans $1 billion a day. Gas is over $4/gallon. AI companies are warning of threats to humanity. And the President is trying to demolish the Kennedy Center because he can't put his name on it. Sums up the Trump era.
Trump's illegal war of choice in Iran has already cost us over $38 BILLION, and that's before you factor in the rising costs you're paying for gas, groceries, & virtually everything else.   To protect our troops, civilians in the region, & to lower prices we need to end this war, NOW.
Trump is sending $2.8 BILLION of bombs paid for by YOU, the American taxpayer, to a govt led by a wanted war criminal. All while Netanyahu keeps bombing Gaza & blocks justice for Americans killed on his watch. How is this America First? We will work to stop it.
The President of the United States is throwing a temper tantrum because he couldn't put his name on yet another building.   Trump can complain & threaten all he wants; it won't change the fact that the Kennedy Center belongs to the American people & is not his to remake.
Days after another measles death, we discover that the most powerful public health official in America will be a headline speaker for an anti-vax rally hosted by a conspiracy org he used to lead.   This is public health under Trump and RFK. Americans' lives are at risk.
Kennedy to deliver keynote for anti-vaccine group he once led

Health secretary has previously worked to distance himself from Children’s Health Defense
It's simple. Big Oil & Big Coal give millions to help get Trump elected. He lets them pollute more. You get dirtier air, extreme heat, flooding, & droughts.   Trump's trading away your health & safety to pad his donors' pockets.   Polluters win, Trump wins, you lose.
In August, we stopped the Clarity Act, but when the Senate returns this week the crypto industry & their Republican flunkies in Congress will try again. As is, this bill does nothing to stop Trump's crypto corruption or the use of crypto by bad actors. We can't let this pass.
