The aerospace community is vital to advancing America’s scientific and technological leadership, as well as our national security. Introduced a resolution to recognize the stellar work of the aerospace community and make today, May 2, National Space Day.
"New Legislation" in a box, followed by "Congressman Lieu Introduces Resolution to Establish National Space Day" over a blurred space background.

SecDef Hegseth should be the one being fired. Hegseth was on not just one, but two Signal chats where he texted advanced info on combat operations to random people. Mike Waltz did not send the problematic texts. Also, Hegseth’s Pentagon makeup studio is really vain and a waste of taxpayer funds.

In Trump’s first 100 days, he alone was responsible for SHRINKING THE US ECONOMY. No wonder Trump’s approval rating is the lowest of any President in the last 80 years. But to be fair, Trump was able to rename a mountain in Alaska to Mount McKinley.

The Trump/GOP recession has officially begun! "The U.S. economy contracted in the first three months of 2025, fueling recession fears." See US GDP growth chart below- positive every month until Trump's tariffs! www.cnbc.com/2025/04/30/g...

Secretary Hegseth’s phone number was found all over the internet. Hackers could have surveilled his phone and gotten sensitive information. It’s time for him to resign. Hope his makeup studio is going well though.

There are various ways a mobile phone can be surveilled if the hacker knows the phone number (eg, look up SS7 attack). Hegseth’s phone number—from where he texted ongoing combat operations—was easily accessible on the internet. He has no concept of OpSec. He needs to resign.

Pete Hegseth’s Signal Phone Number Can Be Found Everywhere: The phone number that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was using to discuss sensitive war plans on Signal was used on multiple other public platforms, according to The New York Times. Hegseth’s number was found on WhatsApp, Facebook, and…

Trump’s policies are harmful, reckless and in some cases lawless. That’s why his poll numbers are plummeting. Keep making your voices heard. The best way to deal with a bully is to fight back. I did a cut and paste from my last post b/c we now have a second major poll showing Trump below 40%.

As a recovering computer science major, I’m very aware that basically everything is susceptible to being hacked. But SecDef Hegseth makes it much easier for America’s enemies to hack him because he repeatedly plays fast and loose with operational security. He needs to resign.

'Difficult to defend': Pete Hegseth buried over new revelations of his 'dirty line'
Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialApr 24(source)
Super excited to be flying like first class on Southwest because the middle seat is empty. Unfortunately, the plane doesn’t have a makeup studio, so I can’t look as pretty as Pete Hegseth who spent taxpayer dollars to install a makeup studio in the Pentagon.

When it comes to Trump’s harmful tariff war, White House officials are not playing chess, and not even checkers, they are playing Magic 8 Ball. 1. Start disastrous tariff war 2. Say oops, the tariffs are “unsustainable” 3. Now ask countries, will you please, please do a deal?

Mack Trucks will lay off between 250 and 350 workers at its Lehigh Valley Operations center outside Allentown over the next three months, due to economic uncertainty caused by U.S. tariffs, a company spokesperson said Thursday.

Russia’s horrific attack on civilians in Ukraine celebrating Palm Sunday was a war crime and a giant middle finger to President Trump, who has been pleading with Putin for a ceasefire. The best way to get Putin to the negotiating table is to help Ukraine defeat Russia on the battlefield.

Russia carried out a terrorist attack in Sumy, Ukraine using ballistic missiles. They murdered at least 31 civilians and injured 80+ others as people celebrated Palm Sunday. Russia attacked at midday to maximize the number of civilian casualties.
