BREAKING: Senator Chris Murphy has just declared a “Constitutional Crisis” over Trump shutting down USAID headquarters.
Murphy: “This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today… The people get to decide how we defend the USA… Elon Musk does not get to decide.”
BREAKING: We are suing @USTreasury for its unlawful disclosure of personal & financial information to Elon Musk’s DOGE.
This violation puts sensitive information about millions of Americans at risk.
BREAKING: CNN just exposed Donald Trump for agreeing to a deal with Canada that had already been negotiated by President Biden. Donald Trump, for all his bluster, received nothing in return. This is yet another example of Trump’s incompetence.
Elon Musk seized control of our payment system—that's how your grandpa gets his Social Security check or how your mom’s doctor gets paid by Medicare.
The unelected billionaire wants the power to turn that on or off, for anyone.
No more business as usual. We need to fight back.
The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.
They can't spin this away. The Trump administration contacted air traffic controllers, offering buyouts to leave their jobs. It's a very easily proven fact.
@swingleft My reply to your “eventual candidate”$$ ask
“Oh for fucks sake give us a moment. Let us grieve and breathe. This is completely tone deaf. I don’t even know who to trust now. We are real live people who are exhausted after 8 years. Give us at least one day before picking my pocket
@Timodc@MaxTwain24 You’re acting like we didn’t have primaries. We voted! We voted for Biden/Harris! Are you suggesting that the party throw out our votes?
Tucked away in the Inflation Reduction Act was a gem: Direct File, which cuts out the tax-prep middleman and gives folks a free and easy way to file directly with the IRS. So good.
"For every dollar invested in the program, Direct File delivers $106 in benefits to American taxpayers."
Expanding it could save even more $$. Let's go!

At tonight's #StateOfTheUnion, Joe Biden should list all the accomplishments of his administration so far, what he intends to do in a second term, play this clip, then leave.
I have some bad news - buried in the appropriations bill being voted on this week is a terrible new gun policy rider that significantly rolls back the firearms background check system.
1/ You need to know about this - it’s bad enough that I will vote against the entire bill.
Tennessee’s abortion ban has no exceptions if you have been raped.
No exceptions if you’re the victim of incest.
Now, Republicans in Tennessee are trying to punish young women that travel to receive care.
The Tennessee GOP aren’t alone in their cruelty.
We have to fight back.

🚨 FLOTUS HAMMERS SPECIAL COUNSEL
@FLOTUS@DrBiden:
"I hope you can imagine how it felt to read that attack -- not just as Joe's wife, but as Beau's mother. I don't know what this Special Counsel was trying to achieve.
We should give everyone grace, and I can't imagine someone would try
to use our son's death to score political points.
If you've experienced a loss like that, you know that you don't measure it in years -- you measure it in grief.
May 30th is a day forever etched on our hearts. It shattered me, it shattered our family. So many of you know that feeling after you lose a loved one, where you feel like you can't get off the floor.
What helped me, and what
helped Joe, was to find purpose. That's what keeps Joe going, serving you and the country we love.
Joe is 81, that's true, but he's 81 doing more in an hour than most people do in a day. Joe has wisdom, empathy, and vision. He has delivered on so many of his promises as President precisely because he's learned a lot
in those 81 years. His age, with his
experience and expertise, is an incredible asset and he proves it every day"
Moore v. US is a huge deal.
If SCOTUS strikes down the repatriation tax, massive corporations will get billions in tax giveaways.
Here’s the kicker: Justice John Roberts and Samuel Alito together hold stock in companies who would get over $30 billion in tax breaks.
Unreal.
Time flies when you #RegisterDemocrats all day every day even in those "off years!"
Come celebrate the wins, the fun, the volunteers, the partnerships, the community. 2024 swing states here we come!
