Under the harmful economic policies of Donald Trump and his sycophantic Republicans, INFLATION IS ACCELERATING. The Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, PCE, increased above expectations.

Visited Smog City Brewery in Torrance this week. Small breweries like Smog City are feeling real economic pressure these days. Tariffs have increased the cost of key ingredients and raw materials needed for their businesses. Business owners & beer lovers are feeling the pain of Trump's tariffs.

AG Bondi, answer the question??

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialFeb 13(source)

Core CPI accelerated in January by the most since August. Core inflation increased .3% from December. Trump’s tariffs—and the sycophantic Republicans that support the tariffs—continue to increase prices. November is coming.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has the power to hold the men in the Epstein files accountable. But she’s doing the opposite. She’s protecting them.

LIEU: These two photos staring you in the face are evidence of a crime and more than enough evidence to predicate an investigation into former Prince Andrew. So why did you shut down this investigation? BONDI: I don't believe you asked Merrick Garland these questions LIEU: You are in charge

Lieu plays Bondi the infamous clip of Trump & Epstein partying together & asks her if there were underaged girls at any party the two attended "This is so ridiculous," Bondi says. "There's no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime" "I believe you just lied under oath," Lieu replies

Americans are drowning in debt and bills. Now we learn January layoffs surged to a 17-year high. Trump’s tariffs and the sycophancy of his rubber stamp Republicans are financially crushing the American people.

CNN: "New data shows January was the lowest months for job cuts since the 2009 Great Recession...layoffs way up, hiring ways down. During the month of January, US-based employers announced just over 108,000 layoffs. That's roughly double January 2025. In fact, this is the highest since January 2009"

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialFeb 2(source)

Public pressure and Americans exercising their First Amendment rights matters. The Trump Administration is now backtracking and will deploy body cameras to every officer in the field in Minneapolis. DHS must deploy body cameras for every officer, but this is a start.

Congratulations to Democratic State Senator-elect Taylor Rehmet for flipping ruby red Texas SD9 from red to blue! Trump endorsed Taylor’s opponent, which helped Taylor because Trump is so weak and unpopular. Democrats will win Congress in Nov, and it won’t be close.

Dear DHS: You need to implement an immediate operational stand down of ICE and Border Patrol interior operations so your agents can learn basic stuff, like the fact that the First Lady of the United States is an American citizen even though she has an accent.

Today, 15 Democratic veterans are calling for a stand down of ICE and CBP interior operations following the second killing by federal agents of an American citizen in Minnesota.

15 DEMOCRATIC VETERANS DEMAND ICE AND CBP INTERIOR OPERATIONS STAND DOWN

Representatives Ted Lieu, Salud Carbajal, Gil Cisneros, Herb Conaway, Jason Crow, Chris DeLuzio, Maggie Goodlander, Chrissy Houlahan, Seth Moulton, Jimmy Panetta, Pat Ryan, Bobby Scott, Mike Thompson, Derek Tran, and Eugene Vindman issued the following statement:

$As veterans, we are outraged and horrified by the killing of a second civilian in Minneapolis by federal agents in less than three weeks. Border Patrol agents shot and killed 37-year-old American citizen Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse at a VA hospital. Video footage and eyewitness accounts of this incident are deeply disturbing and raise serious questions about the use of force. This tragic killing comes on the heels of the fatal shooting of Renée Good earlier this month, and multiple other documented incidents of civil-rights abuses and excessive enforcement by ICE and CBP in Minnesota – demonstrating a pattern of misconduct that has fractured trust and terrified communities. In the military, when preventable deaths occur, leaders stand down operations to review/change policies, reassess missions, retrain personnel, and implement stronger safety protocols. The Department of Homeland Security must do no less. Our communities are less safe, and tensions have reached a boiling point. For these reasons, we call for an immediate stand down of ICE and CBP interior enforcement operations and demand the resignation of the Secretary of Homeland Security. Current leadership has failed to protect civil liberties, ensure accountability, or maintain the public trust. We also demand full, transparent, independent investigations into these deaths and abuses, and decisive steps to prevent further civilian killings at the hands of federal agents.$
