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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
Screenshot of a Truth Social post by President Trump that reads: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP”
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]
