Aleshandra Fernandes is another one of my guests at tonight’s State of the Union.
She’s a union ironworker on offshore wind projects on Long Island.
Thanks to Trump’s attempts to shutter offshore wind projects, she no longer feels secure in her livelihood.

The American people will see tonight that Democrats offer a better choice forward:
A choice to lower costs.
A choice to end the chaos.
A choice to restore some sanity to our country.
Dani is a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse.
She’s here today as my guest to attend the State of the Union because even after everything she endured, she is still fighting—not just for herself but for every survivor who was silenced, ignored, and dismissed.
Tonight, the American people will see a president whose ego does not let him see the reality of Trump 2.0:
Costs. Chaos. Corruption.
—Dani, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein
—Raiza, a mother whose son was detained by ICE
—Aleshandra, a Long Island ironworker whose job is at risk as Trump attempts to shutter offshore wind projects
—Ben, a Rochester small-business owner forced to lay off 25%+ of his workforce due to Trump’s tariffs
Tonight, I'm joined by 4 great New Yorkers—each of them proof of the consequences of Trump’s actions:
Trump’s first year in office recapped:
—Illegal tariffs have raised costs
—Masked ICE agents are terrorizing our neighborhoods like cartel thugs (right Senator Mike Lee?)
—And they still won’t show us the full Epstein files
Donald Trump said he is going to talk for a very long time tonight. God help us.
Not sure what he thinks there is to celebrate, because America is a mess thanks to him.
On top of wasting your taxpayer money on whatever this is, he is hiding the truth of the Epstein files and protecting the powerful instead of seeking justice for the victims.
What an embarrassment of an FBI Director.
Trump doesn't care about the burdens he's imposing on Americans with his tariffs—but Democrats do.
We will NOT extend the Trump tariffs once they expire in a few months.
We'll do everything we can to stop them. We won't stand for higher prices and more inflation.
I’m proud to bring Dani Bensky, New Yorker and survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse, as my guest to the State of the Union to demand the truth.
Dani has turned unimaginable pain into unrelenting advocacy.
Survivors deserve justice. Trump must end the cover-up and release the full Epstein files—NOW.
Raiza's son, Dylan Lopez Contreras, was the first NYC public school student detained by ICE. He entered legally, followed the law, and was still detained after attending a mandatory court hearing.
We won’t stop fighting to bring Dylan home and end ICE’s lawlessness.
NEWS: Raiza Contreras, a Bronx mother whose family has been ripped apart by ICE, will be my guest at the State of the Union.
Trump’s chaotic tariff policies have already been rebuked by Democrats, Republicans, and even the Supreme Court.
They are a tax on Americans, driving prices higher for families.
@democrats.senate.gov will block any attempt to extend Trump’s tariffs when they expire this summer.
Americans are losing their health care to pay for Kristi Noem’s luxury plane.
Democrats are going to make Senate Republicans defend this indefensible spending.
This is so dumb. He’s just making it up as he goes and Americans pay the price.
Trump's tariffs are illegal. The money must be returned.
Trump illegally taxed American families and small businesses, and he’s not giving them their money back.
Even his Treasury Secretary admits it.
x.com/factpostnews...
A victory for the wallets of every American consumer.
Trump’s illegal tariff tax just collapsed—He tried to govern by decree and stuck families with the bill.
Enough chaos. End the trade war.
