Leigh is right all Republicans do is lie. Senate Democrats have tried 5 times to pass a stand-alone bill to fund TSA, FEMA, CISA and the Coast Guard, Republicans have blocked every single one. ICE is a rogue agency that needs to be reined in and until then #FundDHSFreezeICE

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

I went through the xray machine at the airport. End up with a groin pat down and TSA made me take off my shoes and run them through the screening. Now they are saying that if you have a groin pat down you have to have your shoes screened but no one could tell me why. What is this all about?

If you are National Guard or Active Duty military and you are being ordered to violate the Constitutional rights of US citizens then this is the number to the GI Rights Hotline. There is support, you don't have to go through with it. tel: 1-877-447-4487

House Democrats are fighting back against Trump's Tax Scam by getting Republicans on the record. Democrats have introduced over 100 amendments to protect people's health care but Republicans have voted down all of them, including: Requiring HHS to certify the bill won't reduce Medicaid coverage. 🧵

@menendez.house.gov sets the record straight on Republicans' red tape requirements. This isn't about work—it's about kicking people off their health care.

Would be fascinating for Dem House members to invite constituents of R members who are dodging them to join them at the Capitol for the day, walk them up to their absent Congressman. “Xxx, this is Jeff, he lives in your district but you won’t answer his questions. Jeff, ask away…” Repeat x 218.

Set up meetings, and invite them. If they don't accept, have the meeting anyway. Put a chair at the front, with a large toy chicken on it, (possibly wearing a MAGA hat). Put up a sign with the representative's name behind the chair. Livestream the event. Invite local media, of course.

How can trump, I will never capitalize that, now claim to be the president for law and order? How can he say he supports the police when he pardons those who left officers with permanent injuries.

You are up to date.
