Today, in the House Appropriations Committee, I introduced an amendment that would prohibit your taxpayer dollars from being spent on Trump's golden ballroom.
Unfortunately, every Republican voted against it.
Here's a list of Congress members I believe have been fighting harder than anyone else against the lawlessness, corruption and straight up authoritarian takeover of our government.
1. Jon Ossoff
2. AOC
3. Ted Lieu
4. Elizabeth Warren
5. Joe Neguse
6. Jamie Raskin
7. Melanie Stansbury
8. Mark Kelly
9. Bernie Sanders (yes, I said it)
Who else?
Since articles of impeachment have been filed against the Supreme Court’s Justice Roberts then why aren’t they doing the same to Justice Alito after finding out about his son working in the Administration.
The inhumane conditions at Delaney Hall have caused needless suffering and preventable harm for far too long.
We're demanding immediate action and accountability from DHS, the release of all vulnerable individuals, and the permanent closure of Delaney Hall.
He wanted to look tough. He posted a painting of himself surrounded by oiled-up shirtless men in tiny shorts waving pompoms. Safe to say this did not land quite the way he intended.
Trump’s budget director Russ Vought is the most dangerous person you’ve never heard of.
And he just proposed turning every federal grant into a loyalty test.
His plan would make funding for cancer research, housing, transportation, and public health depend on one thing: whether it “advances the President’s policy priorities.”
Not whether it works.
Not whether Congress authorized it.
Whether it pleases Trump.
This is the appropriations power. It belongs to Congress and to the people.
To my Republican colleagues: where are you?
Congress passed this funding. You voted for it.
Vought is telling you to your faces that your votes do not matter, that he and his enablers will override the law whenever it suits them. Every day you stay silent, you give away the institution you were elected to defend.
Grow a spine.
This is not about left or right.
It is about whether Congress still exists as a coequal branch, or whether we have quietly surrendered the purse to an unelected hack who holds the Constitution in contempt.
History will remember who stood up and who looked away.

Hey folks, I don’t mean to brag but I just bought an extra-long garden hose. My hose is now bigger than the Statue of Liberty, Christ the Redeemer and the Lincoln Memorial.
So he has completely DESTROYED the South lawn of the White House and has KILLED old growth trees.
TRUMP DOESN'T OWN THE WHITE HOUSE he should not be ALLOWED to do this or else he should USE HIS OWN MONEY TO RESTORE IT !
I am told that this ad, featuring Zohran Mamdani teaming up with Brad Lander, Darializa Avila Chevalier, and Claire Valdez, aired during tonight’s NBA Finals game between the Spurs and the Knicks.
Despite being under Republican control, the House just defied President Trump on the Iran war.
No amount of lying or bullying by the White House can make Americans forget we're paying for a senseless war.
Now even some GOP Members of Congress are recognizing they ultimately answer to us - not him.
Keep up the pressure.

Pharma giant Merck, which previously was implicated in injecting Ridlgan beagles with rabies, is STILL buying dogs from Ridglan as recently as 5/18.
30 pups were purchased and sent to a Merck facility in Kansas. This is corporate criminality, and it must be stopped.
At least 40 pardoned insurrectionists have been rearrested, charged or sentenced for other crimes since January 6, 2021—including child sex crimes, weapon possession, reckless driving and rape.
12 of them allegedly reoffended after Trump's pardon.

This is the first night since the curfew around the facility was lifted.
