Good riddance. Bondi was Trump’s tool for weaponizing the DOJ against his political foes & defying the law. She's only out b/c she’s bungled the Epstein files cover-up.
Her replacement will also be a Trump puppet. We must remain vigilant & protect the truth & our Constitution.

Trump is right, we can either pay for “daycare, Medicaid, Medicare all these things," or we can pay for more war.
Every dollar we spend on this illegal war of choice, is a dollar that could have helped improve life right here at home.
He's telling us what he cares about more.
Trump, as always, lied to us. Over 2 weeks ago he said "we won." If so, then why are we still there? What’s next?
All we can count on is more lies from Trump. This delusional man is a danger to our country and the world.
Over 400 hospitals across America are at risk of closure or cutting services directly as a result of Medicaid cuts in Trump’s Big, Beautiful Bill.
Trump's $1 TRILLION Medicaid cut helped finance $1 TRILLION in tax cuts just for the top 1%.
This monstrosity must be reversed.
Tonight, Artemis II will take humans further than they've ever gone into space, helping us learn more about our universe & one day return to the moon.
Marylander Reid Wiseman leads the mission guided by the Near Space Network at NASA Goddard.
Making Maryland & America proud!
RFK Jr's time at HHS has put lives at risk.
We've seen medical research undermined, clinical trials disrupted, key scientists fired & more measles outbreaks.
The first step to Making America Healthy Again is firing RFK & his cronies.
Just yesterday the Netanyahu govt adopted a law to hang Palestinians who commit certain crimes in the West Bank but not Israeli settlers who commit the same crimes.
Why are we sending a blank check of billions of $ to a govt that pursues these & other blatantly racist policies?
Thanks to Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill, big corporations paid $65 BILLION LESS in federal taxes last year.
For reference, $65 BILLION could pay for over 2 years of ACA tax credit extensions.
They literally cut healthcare to give mega-corps like Amazon & Meta a tax cut.
If Trump could have paid our TSA agents all along, why'd he wait 45 days to do so?
The answer: He wanted to hold TSA, FEMA, the Coast Guard & others hostage to try & get another blank check for his lawless ICE operation.
He failed. The House should pass our bipartisan bill, NOW.
The "America First" president & his party plan to kick 300K people off their healthcare to help pay for an illegal war.
For reference, their $200 BILLION request could fund ACA tax credits for 6 years.
Tells you all you need to know about their priorities.

Trump's war of choice in Iran has cost us the lives of 13 American service members & injured hundreds, killed thousands of civilians, & is costing $2 BILLION per day.
With Trump considering putting boots on the ground, we must say loud & clear: End this war, NOW!
📍Aberdeen, MD
This is the insanity of Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson’s, refusal to allow a vote on the bipartisan bill that passed the Senate to fund TSA, FEMA, & the Coast Guard & ensure those workers get paid.
Americans can’t wait, vote today!

Donald Trump would love nothing more than for us to be scared, be afraid, & be silent while he wrecks our democracy.
But as millions of Americans are showing today, we will not be scared, we will not go away, & we will say loudly: NO KINGS!
📍Laurel, MD
We have 50,000 troops around Iran, with more on the way, as the possibility of boots on the ground in Iran looms.
We've lost 13 American service members with hundreds wounded, nearly 1500 civilians have been killed, & we are less safe.
We need to END this war, not escalate it.
Deputy AG Blanche says he "cleaned house" at the FBI, removing anyone involved in prosecutions against Trump.
This is how dictators act.
The DOJ & FBI aren't the president’s attack dogs. They’re supposed to work for the people against the corruption that Trump represents.
This morning, after 42 days, Republicans finally agreed to what we've been proposing for weeks — funding TSA, FEMA, & the Coast Guard without giving another penny to Trump's lawless ICE & Border Patrol operations.
My full statement:
A judge has paused Hegseth's efforts to punish Anthropic.
Remember: This is a US company punished for not wanting their AI to kill without human involvement or be used for mass surveillance of Americans.
These attacks are another shameless play by this lawless Admin.

Working with our state & local partners, Federal Team Maryland fought to secure 100% federal funding for the bridge's rebuilding, & we will not stop until the job is done.
[2/2]
Two years ago, we awoke to news of the Key Bridge’s collapse – a tragedy that took the lives of six people & threatened the livelihoods of everyone at the Port of Baltimore. Today especially, we honor the lives lost.
Out of this tragedy, we saw Maryland came together.
[1/2]
Today, Trump named his Council of Advisors on Science & Technology. If his ban on states regulating AI didn’t make it clear, Trump wants Big Tech billionaires in charge of writing their own rules for tech & AI.
Screw everyone else.
