So let me get this straight…20 years ago, Democrats forged Trump’s signature on a creepy birthday card to a pedophile...planted it in Epstein’s estate before Trump even ran…and then waited to release it until *after* Trump got reelected?
Got it.
If America stands for anything, it ought to be human rights.
Today, I introduced important amendments to a must-pass defense bill that were designed to defend the inherent rights & dignity of all human beings.
This should be a bipartisan issue. Every Republican voted no.
People of many faiths agree—we have a moral duty to care for the most vulnerable.
Today, I hosted the Interfaith Working Group on Foreign Assistance to discuss how I’m fighting Trump's cruel cuts to global food aid. Too many are afraid to speak out. It’s up to us to lead the charge.
The Supreme Court just ruled that ICE can LEGALLY terrorize citizens for being…Latino.
This is racial profiling plain & simple. No one should be scared to go to the grocery store or pick up their kids from school because of their race.
Every single Republican on the Rules Committee once again voted to BURY THE EPSTEIN FILES. Why do they continue to protect pedophiles?
Instead of draining the swamp, MAGA is pumping it with more shit by defending the wealthy elites they promised to depose. The coverup continues.
This is a big deal.
A bipartisan majority on the Rules Committee just moved to demand a standalone vote on repealing the 2002 and 1991 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMFs) as a part of this year’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).
Congress should be helping Americans at home, not spending a trillion dollars on bombs & blank checks to defense contractors.
That’s why I will not support this National Defense Authorization Act. It’s time we start feeding the People, not the Pentagon.
Who puts this weird perverted shit on a birthday card?
Answer—probably someone who’s neck deep in the Epstein Files.
Trump thinks domestic abuse is just “a little fight with the wife” and shouldn’t be considered a crime.
Disgusting. And not a great look for the guy who’s hiding the Epstein Files.
The American People aren’t fooled—Trump’s tariffs are a disaster.
He can lie and say the economy is “hot,” but when folks are in the checkout line at the store, they see the truth.
Who the hell asked for this? Oh right—the ultra rich CEOs that Trump’s Transportation Secretary used to represent.
Every chance they get, these guys side with the billionaires over the people.
I’ll always stand up for our LGBTQ community—and stand in the way of anyone who threatens their rights & dignity.
Loved supporting the talented artists & performers at Pride Worcester’s Festival. I’ll continue fighting to ensure our community is welcoming to everyone.
🚨CAUGHT ON CAMERA 🚨
A top official just ADMITTED there is a MASSIVE, ongoing Epstein Files cover up at Trump’s @DOJ.
Says they’ll “redact every Republican” from the files and that Ghislane Maxwell was offered something to “keep her mouth shut.”
RELEASE THE FILES!
Americans don’t trust Washington—and why should they? Too many members abuse their office for personal profit.
That’s why I’m backing the Restore Trust in Congress Act to ban Congressional stock trading. My colleagues must choose: serve the public or serve themselves.
Trump's tariffs are crushing working people: for the first time since the pandemic, unemployed Americans now outnumber job openings.
He’s running the economy into the ground—just like his failed businesses.
Trump just called the Epstein Files “irrelevant.” Tell that to the victims.
Netanyahu is bombing one of the last places where Palestinians can shelter. Where are these refugees supposed to go? This is ethnic cleansing—plain and simple.
Secretaries Rubio & Hegseth: do you care that kids are going to sleep unsure if they’ll wake up? Stop arming war criminals!
The survivors support the Massie-Khanna bill, which demands the full release of the Epstein Files. Anything less is an insult to the victims. Speaker Johnson—why won’t you listen to their voices?
Why would Trump say that releasing a list of pedophiles is an act of “hostility” against him? I can think of only one answer…
I asked a simple yes or no question: do you support the bipartisan Massie-Khanna bill to demand the release of the Epstein Files?
Congressman Comer couldn’t answer. I wonder why?
