Instead of ending his illegal war in Iran, Trump spent the weekend attacking Pope Leo & posting pictures of himself as Christ.
This unhinged man is unfit to be Commander in Chief. He is putting Americans & the world in danger. We must end this war now.

On Yom HaShoah we remember the over 6 million Jews who were murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust.
Today & everyday, we must stand together against antisemitism & ensure that Jewish communities can live & pray without fear.
Never Again.
From calling a documentary on female Holocaust victims "inherently discriminatory" to basing their cuts on AI chatbots, there's no low to which Trump's DOGE goons didn't stoop.
They wreaked havoc, wasted taxpayer $, & made our gov LESS efficient. They must be held accountable.
The “America First,” president wants to cut billions of dollars from American innovation and scientific research.
From NASA to NIH, no one would be spared.
We cannot let this budget pass.

The Trump Admin is rigging our immigration appeals process to hide the real problem in this case: Trump & Rubio's illegal crackdown on freedom of speech.
We must ensure Mahmoud’s rights are respected — if they can take away his rights, all our rights are in danger.

It’s been 50 days since the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s illegal tariff taxes & he still has no plan to pay back the money he stole from American families.
When are they going to see the $1,700 he owes them? Return the money, NOW!
Pentagon officials reportedly threatened retaliation against the Pope for calling for peace in response to Trump's saber rattling.
This from a Pentagon that trumpeted Trump's threat that a "civilization will die."
Hegseth must go.

Next week, Republicans will have another chance to vote with us to end the war in Iran.
@sanders.senate.gov & I will also call for a vote to stop the sale of US taxpayer-funded weapons to the Netanyahu gov, which has used them in violation of international law.
We must end these wars.
Yesterday, I had the honor of speaking to the historic NASA Artemis crew.
I asked MD native & Commander Reid Wiseman what advice he'd give any young person looking to follow in his footsteps.
His message: explore & keep trying. Learning how to fail can be the key to success.
Yesterday, Israeli strikes across Lebanon killed 250+ people even as Pakistan said the ceasefire it brokered includes Lebanon.
Netanyahu urged Trump to start this war, now Trump must demand he help end it.
Who's calling the shots here?
Hegseth is once again blowing smoke.
Trump's & Netanyahu's illegal war of choice has made Americans worse off. A strategic blunder of epic proportions leaving Americans less safe and facing higher costs.
We know we cannot trust Trump. Congress must act & end this war for good.
Trump is threatening to commit massive war crimes against the Iranian people starting at 8 pm tonight.
He is completely unhinged, and it is long past time for Republicans to speak up. Congress should reconvene immediately and vote to end this war, NOW.
Trump promised to go after the "worst of the worst."
His ICE agents just arrested the wife of an Army staff sergeant who has lived here since she was a toddler.
This military family was preparing for a loved one’s deployment — and Trump ripped them apart anyway.
Shameful.
US-Israeli strikes hit Tehran's Sharif University — known as Iran’s MIT & a hub of student protests against the Iranian regime.
Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime & only solidifies the regime's power.
Trump & Netanyahu have no plan, just more wanton destruction.
Persistence & resistance can prevail! It was not long ago that we gathered with hundreds in the freezing cold in Hagerstown to say no to an ICE mass detention warehouse in Washington County.
I salute all who pushed back, we must remain vigilant to stop this ICE warehouse.

Trump is clearly unfit to be President. But do not let that explain away the evil of his threatening war crimes against the Iranian people, on Easter Sunday no less.
We cannot let Trump normalize this.
Pete Hegseth needs to go, NOW.
Since the start of Trump's war in Iran, Hegseth has — without justification — continued firing some of our top military leaders.
Our service members deserve better than a power-tripping warmonger who thinks war is a big video game.

After the accident, he was detained & ICE now refuses to allow his attorneys to meet with him privately, a clear denial of the due process rights afforded to all under our Constitution.
ICE tactics are endangering our communities & violating the Constitution.
[2/2]
🚨 Ever Alvarenga, an asylum seeker, was driving to work Thursday morning when he was rear-ended by an ICE vehicle. He is still in the hospital after suffering significant injuries to his head, chest, back, & hands.
[1/2]
Wednesday night, Trump claimed victory in his war in Iran.
This has been anything but a win. Iran now firmly controls the Strait of Hormuz & its leaders are more hardline than before.
We are less safe & Americans, the region, & the world are paying a very heavy price.
