There is no legal justification, whatsoever, to use military force against a NATO ally like Greenland. If any military member participates in this without congressional authorization, they are following illegal orders.

We can’t just invade a NATO country and act like there’s no laws or treaties. America doesn't threaten our allies. House Democrats are working on war powers legislation right now.

Health care costs are skyrocketing. Food prices continue to increase. Electricity rates are surging. And what is the Trump Administration and their rubber stamp Republicans focused on? Running and rebuilding Venezuela. We should be focused on rebuilding America and our economy.

Jeffries: The American people certainly do not support the notion that Trump and his cronies like Stephen Miller, who is a joke and a toxic embarrassment, are going to run Venezuela. They're talking about making Venezuela great again. They haven't been able to make America great again.

Saddened to learn of the passing of Representative Doug LaMalfa. He represented his district well. I served with Doug in the California State Legislature and in Congress. My prayers are with his family and friends.

Trump incited an attack on our nation’s Capitol. Congress on a bipartisan basis impeached him for this dishonorable conduct. 57 Senators voted to convict. Brave law enforcement fought the mob and protected our Capitol. Trump will never be able to erase this stain on him. Ever.

January 6, 2021 was the most shameful day in American history. It should live in infamy. We will never forget it, and we will not let the nation or the world forget — despite the revisionism of Trump and his lackeys in the Republican Party.

It’s easy to use our amazing military to accomplish amazing missions. But it’s always the day after that America has a lot of problems to figure out. It’s now the day after, and this Administration has failed to articulate a real strategy.

Secretary Rubio basically said the use of military force would not occur without first coming to Congress to get authorization. He needs to explain why he straight up lied to Congress.

The military operation in Venezuela is flat-out illegal. Congress never authorized it. The American people want the President to help our economy, not oil companies.

Statement on Trump’s military actions in Venezuela.

The U.S. attack on Venezuela is illegal. Congress never authorized this use of military force. I will vote to stop it.

This is insane. Heath care costs and food prices are surging. Trump’s response is we’re going to run another country. Batshit crazy.

"(Mike) Johnson is not our speaker. He is not our leader. And in the legislative branch—a totally separate body of government—he is literally 100% under direct orders from the White House. And many, many Republicans are so furious about that, but they’re cowards.” —Marjorie Taylor Greene

The failed White House / GOP strategy on AI is to stop federal bills and try to stop state bills. This resulted in two things the tech industry didn’t want: 1. Patchwork of state AI laws 2. Public backlash Any AI LLM could have devised a better strategy. www.wsj.com/articles/new...

House Judiciary Republicans must call AG Bondi for a hearing when Congress is back in session. The Department of Justice will be held accountable.

“Rep. Lieu slams Trump Administration for incomplete release of the Epstein files” overlayed a background of photos and documents of Epstein. Text from various articles is also overlayed.

Last week, House Republicans left town without extending healthcare subsidies. They once again chose their own vacation over you. Democrats will keep fighting for healthcare and lower costs.

Headline and article text from LA Daily News overlayed a darkened image of someone being pushed on a hospital bed. Text reads: “In-House Opinions: Local representatives on lowering healthcare costs” and “Rep Ted Lieu, D-Torrance: “They knew the ACA subsidies were set to expire, and they chose to do nothing. Now, at the eleventh hour, Speaker Johnson has put forward a so-called plan that still fails to lower premiums or provide certainty for families. That is not leadership, and it is not a serious solution. The most straightforward and responsible path forward is to extend the ACA tax credits. That is why I support the discharge petition for a clean, three-year extension — and why a majority of members agree with me. I also demand Republicans cancel their $1 trillion cut to Medicaid and $500 billion cut to Medicare. Speaker Johnson should stop delaying and work with Democrats to stop the Republican healthcare crisis.”

Ted Lieu@tedlieu.bsky.socialDec 20(source)

This is more of a coverup than an actual release of the Epstein Files.
