The President of the United States is openly calling for the execution of Democratic Members of Congress.
Where is the condemnation from Republicans over this blatant call for political violence?
We will not be intimidated.
Today, I heard from Israeli and Palestinian citizens about their efforts to co-create a safe, just, and shared future for their people. The U.S. government must be a partner in those efforts—not a yes-man to Netanyahu’s attempts to sabotage them.
Refusing to release the jobs report won’t make rising unemployment go away.
Refusing to release the Epstein Files won’t make whatever Trump did with his “terrific” friend Jeff go away.
You can only run from the truth for so long. Accountability is coming.

This is the exact excuse Trump & his cronies at the DOJ will use to justify any potential refusal to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.
Release all the Files. Now. The American People will not stand for anything less than complete transparency.
Today I met with members of faith-based groups from @justiceucc.bsky.social who are working on peace-building in Colombian communities. The US has invested so much in Colombia’s future & we must support full implementation of the peace agreement.
Honored to attend the premiere of “Wisdom Happiness: A Heart-to-Heart with the Dalai Lama” with @nancypelosi69.bsky.social & Richard Gere. I’m forever inspired by the courage of His Holiness—and I'll always be an advocate for the human rights & dignity of the Tibetan people.
Jamal Khashoggi was a journalist—a human being with thoughts and feelings and a family and a future.
A Saudi prince didn’t like his viewpoint—so he had him brutally murdered and hacked to death.
Anyone who can put that aside for polite dinner conversation is sick in the head.
Here’s the list of guests who honored the killer crown prince of Saudi Arabia last night at our White House, including Elon Musk (Tesla) and Tim Cook (Apple), and more: www.businessinsider.com/white-house-...
As I said on the floor today, releasing the Epstein Files is not about politics. It’s about the survivors—girls as young as 11 years old who were systematically abused by rich & powerful men.
Tonight, I stood in solidarity with them & all survivors of sexual assault nationwide.
I’m glad the Senate swiftly passed the Epstein Files Transparency Act. President Trump must immediately sign it into law & fully comply.
No excuses. No delays. Anything less is an insult to the survivors of Epstein’s heinous crimes & survivors of sexual assault nationwide.
MBS literally ordered his thugs to hack apart a @washingtonpost.com journalist with a bonesaw.
You are the company you keep!
I share Congressman Massie’s concerns. Trump knows he’s lost Congressional support for his Epstein Files coverup, so he’s illegally using his corrupt DOJ to stall & manufacture BS excuses to deny the American People full transparency.
Today’s vote was a big step towards transparency & accountability for those complicit in Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes.
But this fight doesn’t stop here. This bill MUST become the law of the land, and Trump’s corrupt DOJ must abide by its ruling. NO more stalling or excuses!
Trump is the first president in U.S. history to weaponize hunger—blocking nutrition benefits because he thought it would help him politically. It's disgusting, but it's making me fight harder to #EndHungerNow.
The Epstein Files must be released NO MATTER WHO is in them: Republicans, Democrats, or anyone in-between. No one is above the law.
Trump could release the files RIGHT NOW. Why won’t he? I think we all know.
Remember: As president, Trump could release the Epstein Files TODAY.
His sudden reversal is obvious—he lost the votes and is now pathetically trying to save face.
If he cared about truth & supporting survivors, why not release the files RIGHT NOW?!
NEWS: For months, Republican leaders have stonewalled a bill to release the Epstein Files. Now they’re trying to limit debate.
So I’m teaming up with Congressman Massie & @rokhanna.bsky.social to start debate early and give this the time it deserves.
Tune in to the House Floor soon.
Every news channel in America: airs the Epstein survivors’ entire press conference.
Fox News: “TRUMP DECLARES HIS LOVE FOR MCDONALDS, FAST FOOD”
Hey Fox News—Nice job siding with the Epstein Class & protecting pedophiles.
If you’re rich and powerful, the Republicans will go to bat for you every day of the week—even if you’re a pedophile running a child sex trafficking ring.
But if you’re a working American, you’re left out to dry.
Wow. So rather than working to fight inflation, Republicans are re-passing a resolution they already passed “condemning socialism.”
I asked a pretty simple question. Can they even define what they’re condemning?
Spoiler alert: Apparently they are condemning MEDICARE as socialism!!
