He’s only calling it “top secret” because he made a very big whoopsie poopsie
No we’re good thx

You can refuse illegal orders.
We have your back.”
🇺🇸Veterans offer support to those in active service.🇺🇸
The only reason we ever became concerned with a “trade deficit” was in the 80s when Japanese car companies were eating American companies lunch.
That’s it.
It’s not meant to be an economic strategy.
I have a trade deficit with Applebees but we’re fine
I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period
AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.
Thurmond was the same age as Booker when he set the record Senator Cory Booker just broke.
Thurmond was afforded a bathroom break and read from the encyclopedia. Booker held the floor the entire time and delivered a consistent, cogent speech for more than 24 hours.
Incredible.
Senator Booker: What kind of man is in the white house that makes fun of the disabled, who lies so much that the fact checkers lose count, that minimizes the pain and the suffering
Millions of you, around the world, have put the lessons I wrote in #OnTyranny in late 2016 to good use. It has been humbling to learn how from courageous and creative dissenters, protestors, and oppositionists. I was honored when John Lithgow volunteered to read them aloud.

From now on in every White House Chat:
Perfectly normal for a major news outlet to ignore a gigantic scandal, but somehow making sure that all its viewers know that Tesla was up 30 points 🤷♂️
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
So, Trump is being found to have broken the law on average once every four days, and MAGA Twitter wants you to believe this is all lawfare from activist judges.
There’s really no amount of pretzel logic that is too much for these people.
It’s simple. They’re going after the Department of Education to take money from your kids’ schools to give tax breaks to billionaires.
One of my favorite episodes.
Depending on how long it lasts, I’ll be one of them.
We are sending people for indefinite detention without trial at a foreign gulag because they have tattoos about soccer teams and about loving their mothers.
“…never in the history of the world has a Nation lost its democracy by a successful struggle to defend its democracy. We must not be defeated by the fear of the very danger which we are preparing to resist…The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.
AOC and Bernie in front of the rally crowd in Denver
Zoomed out crowd shot of 34,000 people in downtown Denver with Colorado mountains in the background
Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).
House Republicans’ proposed $880 billion in Medicaid cuts would devastate community health centers—putting care, jobs and lives at risk.
At Adelante Healthcare in Mesa this week, I met with providers to discuss what’s at stake.
Two Newsweek stories side by side. The first says “Britain issues travel warning for the US”. The second is headlined “Germany issues travel warning for US”.
Two news stories. TODAY.
The world no longer trusts the United States to safeguard its citizens.
Step up, stand up, speak out.
This moment is hard — I don't dispute that, but this isn't the time to be afraid.
Make your voice heard, whether it’s at a town hall or on the phone, so Donald Trump and Republicans know how sick and tired you are of them cutting your services.
"the president is asserting dictatorial power and ‘constitutional crisis’ doesn’t capture the gravity of the situation.”
Here's an expert saying that "constitutional crisis" isn't the right term **because it doesn't go far enough.**
"The president is asserting dictatorial power and ‘constitutional crisis’ doesn’t capture the gravity of the situation.”

Very brave. I only represent Republicans, not all Americans in my district. Hopefully those independent voters will let him know how they feel about this when he runs for Senate.
