We asked Donald Trump to cut health care costs. Instead, he cut off a wing of the White House.

There is no possible democratic, constitutional interpretation of the presidency in which Donald Trump can unilaterally destroy the White House. Because he did, he sees himself as a monarch.

Tell SCOTUS to enforce it - we’ll say how they respond. I don’t have any faith that they would prevent him from doing so.

If I were ever elected president, the first thing I’d do is take a sledgehammer to that ballroom.

Solving the affordable housing crisis means investing in programs that help us fill gaps in the workforce.

I met with local leaders in Central Oregon to talk about how these programs set our students up for success, and how I can continue to support them in Congress.

Folks are losing snap benefits, trying to figure out how they are going to make it, and MAGA is running their mouths.

They will do their damndest to scratch and claw a way to attempt to stay in power.

I cannot stand Steve Bannon and oppose everything he stands for, BUT he’s not mincing any words about Trump winning a third term in 2028 nor is he delusional.

I only know that we have authoritarian oligarchs that want to maintain and expand their power. I don’t know if Mr. Platner is a “nazi”.

Congress needs to reclaim its power.

From trade, to treaties, to war powers, to appropriations, our Founding Fathers believed Congress had a fundamental role in foreign policy.

Fox News runs some more footage of "Chaos in Portland" - the chaos being that ICE agents and federal agents are blanketing the area in gas and smoke for no reason.

Which is why EVERY blue/purple State needs to be redistricting now! We have to fight fire with fire - the ‘norms’ are all out the window at this point!

Whichever ones are looking to maintain the status quo when it comes to legislation priorities. PACs, Corps, foreign dark money, the ultra-wealthy… all of whom want to continue the current systems that primarily benefit them.

Just a quick observation about what's happening in America today and how the same people who were upset about Cracker Barrel changing its logo are not about the demolition of the White House's East Wing...

How can we let ICE take our neighbors?

How can we let them brutalize grannies, grandpas & pregnant women?

How can we let them ziptie little children?

This Dolores Huerta video must go viral.

There are atrocities being committed in our name with our taxpayer dollars!

Don't be silent!
Speak out!

Glad ICE is getting called out for plate swapping in Illinois, but this has been happening in California from the jump.

During the government shutdown, President Trump:

- Raised $250 million from billionaires for a ballroom
- Gave Qatar an Air Force facility in Idaho
- Doubled Argentina's bailout to $40 billion

What happened to America First?

I dunno, I think a president who is told by the supreme court and congress he can illegally withhold mandated funding, dissolve federal agencies created by congress, appropriate funds by fiat for his pet projects, and put $230mln from the Treasury into his pocket will corrupt future elections.
