I want to express my deepest sympathy to the family and loved ones of the woman killed by ICE this morning. She should not have died today. This should not have happened. I can’t imagine the heartbreak you are going through and the grief you are enduring.

There is no evidence that the officer who shot the woman was injured at ALL, despite Trump’s claim here that he is “recovering in the hospital.” Immediately after the shooting you can see him walking completely normally, and he stayed on the scene for a while before driving off.

I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense. Based on the attached clip, it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital. The situation is being studied, in its entirety, but the reason these incidents are happening is because the Radical Left is threatening, assaulting, and targeting our Law Enforcement Officers and ICE Agents on a daily basis. They are just trying to do the job of MAKING AMERICA SAFE. We need to stand by and protect our Law Enforcement Officers from this Radical Left Movement of Violence and Hate!

Frey: So, they are already trying to spin this as an action of self-defense. Having seen the video of myself, I want to tell everybody directly: That is bullshit.

Trump is lying, again. The only time NATO’s Article 5 mutual defense provision was ever invoked was by the U.S. after 9/11. Hundreds of soldiers from our NATO allies were killed fighting alongside American troops in Afghanistan. Trump insulting our allies makes us weaker.

Speaker Johnson could easily place the January 6th plaque, and he knows it. The issue isn't the content, which he isn't trying to resolve. He's trying to hide and bury the past because it is uncomfortable for him and for Trump. And he's insulting the officers who protected him.

This Jan. 6 plaque was made to honor law enforcement. It's nowhere to be found at the Capitol

Approaching the fifth anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, the official plaque honoring the police who defended democracy is nowhere to be found.

If you don't know what Trump means when he says "we're going to run Venezuela," you are not alone. The Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader also apparently have no idea what that means and are unable to answer basic questions about it:

In the absence of a strong federal response to AI, states are wisely taking the lead to create guardrails. Trump’s attempt to undo this progress is prioritizing the profits of powerful tech corporations over the safety of the American people. I'm leading the fight to stop it.

This attack on trans youth is beyond the pale. But this administration has made clear time and time again that the cruelty is the point. This is absolutely wrong, and this kind of cruelty kills people. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

HHS to revoke funding from hospitals offering youth gender transition care

The proposed regulations would bar medical providers who offer gender transition care to transgender youth from receiving Medicare or Medicaid funds.

Trump says he’s “pro-police” and “tough on crime”, yet he unleashed 1,500+ criminals onto our streets, many of whom assaulted law enforcement on J6. Since Trump’s pardons, they’ve committed: - Kidnapping - Sexual assault - Burglary - Death threats against elected officials

Democrats have forced a vote to restore the ACA tax credits and reverse massive premium hikes that would otherwise devastate working families. This week, Republicans will have to choose between keeping health care unaffordable or finally delivering relief for their constituents.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 5(source)

Trump promised to eliminate inflation, stop endless wars, and be a peacemaker. Instead he's driving prices higher, starting new conflicts, and threatening to send U.S. troops overseas for regime change.

One of the final House votes of 2025 was a vote on @repmcgovern.bsky.social war powers resolution to bar President Trump from military action against Venezuela without authorization by Congress. All Republicans except Reps. Massie, Bacon, and Marjorie Taylor Greene voted to defeat the measure:

No one should be under any illusions that what Trump did here was about "ousting dictators." Trump loves dictators.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 3(source)

The Administration lied to Congress and launched an illegal war for regime change and oil. Foolhardy and wrong.

Congressman Don Beyer@beyer.house.govJan 3(source)

I've always opposed American attacks on Venezuela and I oppose them now. You don't need sympathy for Maduro to grasp that attacking another country for unclear, shifting rationales without domestic support or a clear plan for the day after won't make us safer.

At a time of accelerating biodiversity loss, we should be strengthening the ESA to help recover imperiled species. The Trump Administration’s politically motivated deregulation attempts ignore both the science and the bipartisan intent of the ESA.

Wishing you a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year!

The latest disastrous jobs report makes it clear that this is not an ‘A++++ economy’ as President Trump claimed. youtube.com/shorts/NxzoR...
