#Democracy has declined recently. It has happened before.

There were phases of autocratization in the 1930s, 1960s and 1970s.

The declines were reversed. Citizens fought back, and pushed democratic rights to new heights.

How will we do it again? https://t.co/FDuL2SyHg0

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

DOGE rifled through your Social Security data, your tax records, and your most sensitive personal information. All in the name of transparency, of course.

And now, in that same spirit of transparency, the Trump Administration is blocking the government's own watchdog from finding out what they did with it.

The only reason they’re blocking the investigation is because they're afraid of what it would find.

Donald Trump commuted the sentence of a health care executive who was convicted in a $1.3 billion Medicare fraud scheme.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

No nation, no society, and no international order can call itself just and humane if it measures its success solely by power or prosperity while neglecting those who live at the margins. Indeed, Christ’s love for the least and the forgotten compels us to reject every form of selfishness that leaves the poor and the vulnerable invisible.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

The @IRSnews can look into your finances…but they’re prohibited from investigating Trump, his family, or his businesses EVER AGAIN!

Rules for thee, not for me.

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

This is Ken Paxton's mugshot.

He was indicted on 3 felony counts for investment fraud.

He was reported to the FBI by his own staff for bribery.

He was impeached by his own party for corruption.

Now he’s the Republican nominee for US Senate in Texas.

Together we will stop him.

The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate.

Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

I can’t believe I have to say this:

The President should not financially benefit from the very government he controls.

I’ve got a bill to stop Trump’s corruption.

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The President’s Big Beautiful Bill, the Iran War, and Republican spending bills will create a $2 trillion budget DEFICIT in 2026.

Financing just the new debt costs more than all federal road & bridge projects, and we will be making those new interest payments each year, forever.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

This is an unprecedented level of corruption.

Trump is forcing the government to drop ALL tax audits of him, his family, and his businesses—giving him FULL IMMUNITY from prosecution.

What is Trump hiding from the American people?

Congress must step up and stop this corruption.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

He’s trying to bury his tax returns just like he’s trying to bury the Epstein Files.

This is the most obscenely corrupt and morally bankrupt administration in American history. And it’s not even close.

[Mark DeSaulnier @RepDeSaulnier]

As one of the last Members of Congress to be evacuated on January 6th, I, and so many of my colleagues, owe our lives to the brave law enforcement officers who worked to defend the US Capitol. President Trump wants to give $1.8 billion in taxpayer funds to people like the rioters who attacked and threatened the lives of law enforcement officers that day. It’s not just wrong, it’s shameful. https://t.co/jUFJNqFYD3

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

As if a $1.8 billion slush fund weren't a severe enough violation of the rule of law, Trump's "settlement" with the IRS also includes a permanent get-out-of-jail-free card for any tax crimes committed by the president, his family and his companies.

How much grifting and scamming will it take to get the fiscal conservatives of the GOP to join us and put a stop to this presidential plundering of taxpayer dollars?

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

🚨BREAKING: Republicans just voted AGAINST my amendment to stop Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund from bailing out the convicted felons who assaulted cops on January 6th.

You read that right. They blocked us from even debating the issue on the House floor.

Beyond shameful.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Add it to the long list of Trump's impeachable and criminal offenses that the GOP Congress and Supreme Court are fine with. We can hope Trump's successors attempt to restore Constitutional order instead of abusing power in the other direction. Post-Orban Hungary may be a model.

[Barb McQuade @BarbMcQuade]

Trump’s $1.776 billion grift fund would disgust our Founding Fathers. Not only have Jan 6 attackers been pardoned, now they will be paid from taxpayer funds, based on lies and legal fiction. My thoughts in @opinion.bloomberg.com

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Absolutely insane levels of corruption happening right before your eyes.

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

This is the MOST corrupt Administration in American history:
—Insider trading
—Selling pardons
—Crypto and real estate deals
—Arms deals
—BILLIONS in tax breaks for billionaires on the backs of the American people

And NOW the IRS giving Trump and convicted rioters BILLIONS in taxpayer dollars. This is outrageous!
