It’s been 15 days since the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s illegal tariff tax & he still has no plan to put YOUR money back in your pocket. When are American families going to see the $1,700 he stole? Return the money, NOW!
Last year, at least 32 people died in ICE custody — the most in 2 decades. Reports show at least 9 have died already this year. How many more before Republicans act? Trump & Republicans cut Medicaid & SNAP to give this lawless agency an extra $75 BILLION. Not one more dime.
Yesterday, I asked Kristi Noem’s former number 2, whether he disagreed with Noem’s statement that Renee Good & Alex Pretti were “domestic terrorists." He refused to answer. It's clear no one in this Administration knows right from wrong. He should not be representing our country.
Our Ambassadors should have a basic understanding of the Constitution. But apparently, that's too much to ask of this Admin. Trump's pick to be Ambassador to El Salvador (who was also Noem's deputy at DHS) had trouble answering basic questions about our Constitution.
Today, Trump hosted AI execs to ask them to "pledge" to cover the electricity costs of their data centers. One problem? It's smoke and mirrors. Consumers should understand that if he's serious, Trump would support my Power for the People Act to make these protections LAW.
Today, Congress was finally briefed on Trump's war of choice in Iran. Even behind closed doors, they couldn't get their story straight. But one thing is clear: they don't have a clue what the end game is, and it sure as hell isn't making America safer.
Not only has this Admin launched a regime-change war of choice that the American people don't want, they can't even get their story straight about why they did it. American servicemembers and hundreds of civilians have been killed — and all they can do is lie.
Netanyahu got what he wanted but what about the American people? What about the servicemembers who died? What about the nearly 200 schoolchildren killed? There's a reason why past presidents didn’t go to war with Iran: they refused to risk American lives to open Pandora’s Box.
Netanyahu says Trump fulfilled his dreams: In bombing Iran, Israel now has the "assistance of the United States, my friend, US President Donald Trump, and the US military. This coalition of forces allows us to do what I have yearned to do for 40 years"
New reports that ICE is moving around 100 vehicles from Minneapolis to Washington Co, MD are alarming. I’m pressing for answers & will continue to fight back against Trump’s lawless ICE & mass deportation operation in our communities. This is not what Marylanders want.
Remember all those times Trump & Vance said they wouldn’t drag America into another war? They LIED. Their actions today put American lives at risk, undermine our broader interests around the world, & will cost taxpayers billions of dollars.
As Black History Month draws to a close, we celebrate the enormous contributions made by Black Americans and resolve to never allow the Trump Admin to erase, diminish, or whitewash that history. American history and Black history are one story.
