Biden issued an executive order in 2021 to enforce antitrust laws and crack down on companies abusing their market power.
Trump just revoked it. He is pro-billionaire. Anti-small business. Anti-competition.
But don't take my word for it:

Trump announced he's leading a "movement" to get rid of mail-in ballots and voting machines. He's setting up to steal the 2026 midterms and probably the 2028 presidential. Either through dismantling our voting system or rigging the maps.
Why? His cruel and reckless actions are deeply unpopular.
Hey, Glens Falls, New York! We heard Elise Stefanik hasn't been showing up for you or hearing your concerns with Trump's disastrous presidency.
But @pressley.house.gov, @reppaultonko.bsky.social, and I believe your voice matters. We're coming to you on August 22.
Join us:
Celebrating 90 years of Social Security today. I'm fighting to make sure we make it to 91 and beyond.
To Trump and anyone who wants to privatize Social Security: HANDS OFF!
He is using the office of the presidency to enrich himself, his family, and his friends — while gutting health care and raising prices for the rest of us.
Trump and his family have made approximately $3.4 billion thanks to his two terms as president. This includes profits from crypto, MAGA merchandise, Mar-a-Lago and more.

This new legislation would establish a clear line: In the US, we do not exile people for exercising their constitutional rights.
We thank @ross.house.gov and @balint.house.gov for introducing this bill and standing firm in safeguarding our right to free speech, dissent, and political expression.
The Trump admin keeps violating the free speech rights of immigrants in this country.
This can't go unchecked. @balint.house.gov and I introduced our Land of the Free Act to prevent Trump from deporting individuals whose speech he finds inconvenient.

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 was once a rarely used provision. But now Marco Rubio uses it daily. It was his basis for going after Mahmoud Khalil, Rümeysa Öztürk, and others to suppress political speech.
So @ross.house.gov and I want to repeal it.
Rather than fearmonger about crime in DC (crime rates have fallen sharply in the city), Trump should pressure Speaker Johnson to release the $1 billion in taxpayer money that Congress blocked.
This is a complete authoritarian power grab of the capital city.
Trans service members in the Air Force are being forced out with no retirement benefits. Utterly disgraceful way to treat people who have served our country for nearly 20 years. This does not make us safer.
The Republican playbook is simply lie, gaslight, repeat.
No amount of lying will change the reality that, because of their votes, hospitals will close and people are going to die without care.
I wrote my latest Substack on why so many of my Republican colleagues fall in line behind Trump, even when they disparage and mock him when the cameras aren’t around.

This is one of those meetings that could be an email. Release the Epstein files. Pretty simple, no discussion needed.
The latest jobs report is…very bad.
July: 73,000
June: 14,000
May: 19,000
This is the worst economic jobs report since mass layoffs during COVID.
$150B that ***Americans*** paid.
Why would we thank him?
The Trump administration shut down Direct File, a popular program that allowed millions of people to file their taxes for free, directly with the IRS.
Why?
Trump wants huge corporations like TurboTax and their CEOs to get richer and richer by ripping working class people off.
A country where one person can become this rich should have zero homelessness, zero hunger, and the best education.
Our current reality is not normal. We do not have to accept it.
The Netanyahu government continues to engage in unjustifiable atrocities — babies are starving. I won't be complicit in the horrors only to benefit Netanyahu’s political ambitions rather than find peace. Feed Gaza now.
The United States Post Office turns 250 today. Rural communities *need* the post office to pay their bills, get medication prescriptions, and stay connected with loved ones. We cannot live without it and we need to make sure it is strengthened for decades to come.
