I'm filing a brief in support of the case against Donald Trump's illegal tariffs now in front of the U.S. Supreme Court.

California families and businesses shouldn't pay the price for actions that Trump never had the authority to take in the first place.

The president announces an arbitrary price hike on Americans because his feelings are hurt by an ad accurately quoting Ronald Reagan’s criticism of tariffs

Canada was caught, red handed, putting up a fraudulent advertisement on Ronald Reagan’s Speech on Tariffs. The Reagan Foundation said that they, “created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address,” and “did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter.” The sole purpose of this FRAUD was Canada’s hope that the United States Supreme Court will come to their “rescue” on Tariffs that they have used for years to hurt the United States. Now the United States is able to defend itself against high and overbearing Canadian Tariffs (and those from the rest of the World as well!). Ronald Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of National Security and the Economy, but Canada said he didn’t! Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD. Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The wealth class is enabling a fascist takeover simple because they want to save a little on their taxes.

The time is now. Time to teach the truth; time to stand up for what's right; time to save our republic.

History tells us what could happen if we lack the will to resist. If we fail, we will lose our home, our humanity, our peace. We cannot wait. The time is now.

It's been 32 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress.

Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

By refusing to work with Democrats, Republicans are willing to DOUBLE the health care costs for millions of people.

It’s shameful.

States are already notifying families that SNAP benefits will not be available for November.

Republicans will be leaving families who rely on SNAP in the dark with no solution on how they will put dinner on the table. (2/2)

Republicans should be at the negotiating table working to reopen the government. If they keep the government shut down until November 1, SNAP benefits will run out. More than 42 Million Americans will be impacted including veterans and seniors. (1/2)

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.
