Donald, this is not the Soviet Union. You can’t change the truth and you cannot silence us. Remember all your lies about the voting machines, the election workers, your countless allegations of fraud that never happened? Many of your lawyers have been sanctioned, disciplined or disbarred, the courts ruled against you, and dozens of your own White House, administration, and campaign aides testified against you. Remember how you sent a mob to our Capitol and then watched the violence on television and refused for hours to instruct the mob to leave? Remember how your former Vice President prevented you from overturning our Republic? We remember. And now, as you take office again, the American people need to reject your latest malicious falsehoods and stand as the guardrails of our Constitutional Republic — to protect the America we love from you.
Trump's first round of tax cuts for the rich added $2 trillion to the debt. Extending them would add another $5 trillion. If we "can't afford" universal health care or paid family leave or basic social safety nets, Trump's handouts to the rich are why.
We now know what it looks like when Elon Musk calls for “government efficiency.” For starters? Cuts to funding for child cancer research. I wish I were making that up.
I have always said that @SpeakerJohnson is a person who uses religion. He will lie, steal, and cheat for political purposes and this below makes that clear. He is not the religious person he claims to be.
In April, The Biden-Harris Labor Department expanded overtime pay rules.
Roughly 4.3 million more workers would have been eligible for OT pay under the new rule.
A Trump-appointed judged blocked it yesterday.
Go ahead and keep telling me that the GOP is the party of workers.
Who still wants to know who paid Brett Kavanaugh’s $92,000 country club balance, $200,000 in credit card debt, and $1,200,000 mortgage, buying themselves a Supreme Court justice — and the 5th vote to overturn Roe v. Wade?
If your response to Gen John Kelly, gold star father & Trump’s WH chief of staff, confirming that Trump praised Hitler & called members of our military “suckers and losers” is to defend Trump, you need to look in the mirror and realize your dishonor will live forever.
Here's my message to young people: you wouldn't let a bunch of old people decide what music you're going to listen to or what clothes you're going to wear – so don't let them decide your future.

Let's clear up the misinformation about a tax on unrealized capital gains.The plan Kamala Harris endorsed only applies to people with $100 million+ in wealth who do not pay at least a 25% tax rate on their income. Is that you? No? Then you will not be affected.
A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.
This is what oligarchy looks like.
Forced birth in a country with:
—No universal healthcare
—No universal childcare
—No paid family & medical leave
—One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations
Again, the right's agenda isn't about "life." It's about control.
Trump’s Former Sec. Def. Mark Esper: “There is no more hallowed ground in this nation than Arlington Cemetery…I think it should be investigated…no person or party on either side should ever use Arlington National Cemetery…for partisan political purposes.”
Ron DeSantis and the FDEP want to destroy our beautiful Florida state parks and wildlife habitats to make room for golf courses and pickleball courts.
We must stand up against the state leaders sacrificing our parks and green spaces for profit—a disgusting abuse of power.
National abortion ban. End of contraception. End of no fault divorce. Defunding public schools. Return of child marriage and labor. Weakening of spousal abuse laws. You seeing your future yet women? You like it?
