Republicans today voted against my amendment to protect funding for state and local authorities to go after predators who perpetrate sexual assault, human trafficking and domestic violence.

I haven’t forgotten the Epstein Files and the reality the current usurper in the White House raped children and laundered money, resulting in being blackmailed by multiple foreign governments to do their bidding.
I hope you don’t forget it, either.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.
"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)
AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.
THIS 2024 CAMPAIGN SIGN
DID NOT AGE WELL:
NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities
McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.
Jeffries: "Article 1 of the Constitution provides Congress with the sole authority to declare war. Framers made that decision b/c they were concerned about kings plunging their people into unnecessary wars to pillage resources of others for the benefit of a tyrant and his family. Sound familiar?"
Jasmine Crockett is a star and I can guarantee she's not done fighting! Congratulations to James Talarico! Lets turn Texas blue!!!
Cornyn and Paxton both stink.
Screenshot of an X post by Republicans Against Trump reporting claims that commanders at multiple U.S. bases told troops the Iran war is part of “God’s plan” and linked to Armageddon. Below is a photo of Trump standing with several evangelical leaders praying around him.
The religious right has infiltrated far into our military with disturbing consequences.
BREAKING: The House just passed SB 5855, Sen. Valdez's bill to bar law enforcement from wearing face coverings.
I look forward to signing it once it reaches my desk.
Good news!
The Virginia Supreme Court ruled Wednesday, for the second time, that voters can decide whether the state can redraw its congressional map — clearing the way for a referendum that, if successful, could help counter GOP gerrymanders nationwide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined.
Over half goes to private defense contractors.
This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of — on steroids.
Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."
