People are losing their rights and their lives. This week, 15 legal observers and activists in Minnesota were arrested. People are facing criminal charges for challenging and documenting government actions. Verify your voter registration today. Don't assume it's current. mnvotes.sos.mn.gov

WARREN: I want to understand how slashing healthcare for families so Meta gets a $3b tax cut is a 'really good outcome for the American public' IRS CEO BISIGNANO: I don't see the two as correlated W: Those tax cuts were paid for by pushing people off their healthcare. Did you not follow that?

The President of the United States is a lunatic! Any comments, Republicans? Impeachment yet? Or will you just let him post pictures of himself as God & pretend it isn't happening? Sullivan & Murkowski AK Risch ID Schmitt MO Ricketts NE Tillis NC Hoeven ND Moreno & Husted OH Rounds SD Collins ME

Due process is fundamental to our constitution. Democracy doesn’t exist without it. Trump's continued purging of immigration judges who don’t follow his demands is a blatant violation of due process. We must pass my legislation to get immigration courts out of the Executive branch.

Guards were watching a woman crying on the toilet & laughing. MEN CAN SEE WOMEN USING THE BATHROOM. The toilets are COVERED IN URINE. The toilet paper is wet. There's no privacy. PEOPLE WERE SCREAMING. There wasn't even enough room to lie down. They are depriving people of food. #ICELawlessness

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam. It would take away the rights of working people to make their voices heard at the ballot box. The Senate must reject this bill.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree? NOEM: A what? CROCKETT: A law degree NOEM: No I do no- CROCKETT: Okay

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

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.

"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)

Don’t let this get lost in the shuffle.
 
These $1,776 "warrior dividends" weren't bonuses. Trump just stole money out of a fund meant to help our troops find affordable housing.

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

We have environmental regulations for a reason. It's a shame the Republicans are hell bent on erasing the regs. Tainted water impacts every facet of life.

Green Day + Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl is cultural dominance, actually. Punk, Puerto Rico, and zero tolerance for fascist tantrums. Someone hide the comment section. 😌🔥 #BadBunnyBowl #USDemocracy

Why did ICE detain a 7 year old child from Oregon-and then ship her to Texas And why have they done this same thing to 3,800 other children It’s deplorable. And make no mistake. Donald Trump is to blame

Congresswoman Maxine Dexter, M.D.@repdexteror.bsky.social

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year. She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again. Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

Maria is one of hundreds of children, who — like Liam Ramos — have been held at a Texas detention facility where parents say children languish as they’re served contaminated food, receive little education and struggle to obtain basic medical care. Here's our attempt at telling their stories. 2/

Today I joined House Democrats at ICE headquarters in DC to demand Kristi Noem's impeachment & voted NO on funding for DHS. Not a dollar more until DHS ends its violence & abuse of power. Trump's federal agents killed two Americans in broad daylight. We are not backing down.
