We elected you to Congress to be a check on executive power, not a spectator. You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to protect a man who threatens democracy, threatens war, and threatens the future. Stop hiding behind voters. Stop punting responsibility. DO YOUR JOBS.👇

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

Can't believe I finally got it right. Taking a hint from a friend, I got Muppet a heated cat bed, and she's actually using it! The afghan is mine, so that it "smells righ5."

That's good to know! I hope more people in Illinois see your post and speak up themselves with their own knowledge here. Here in NJ we also have state elected who are far more interested in keeping their heads down than doing the work. That needs to change. Our lives depend on it.

Krishnamoorthi has accepted more than $90,000 in contributions from Trump and MAGA donors, like Palantir. He also voted for House Resolution 488, which was to condemn the antisemitic attacks in Boulder but I included a section thanking ICE officers for their service.

People not in Minnesota: please read this excellent summary of what life is like in Minneapolis since the murderous scum ICE swarmed here. And more are on their way. By local reporter / writer / bike dude / legend @dbrauer.net .
Text: “A friend said those of us who live in Minneapolis should write about what's going on here for folks who live elsewhere. You need to know that whether you're a Republican, Independent or Democrat, the Constitution is being violated by our federal government. This is not about catching criminals, or even deporting people. It is about punishing an entire state, including
citizens, for not supporting the president. Everyone in my part of Minneapolis is affected. On our streets, ICE is stopping people of color and demanding their papers. In America. US citizens do not have to prove citizenship to ICE. Yet people are being intimidated, some cases beaten up and detained, for requiring ICE to follow the law. ICE needs a judicial warrant to enter homes. Yet there are documented cases of them
ignoring the law - violating a bedrock constitutional principle. Americans of color are staying home, afraid to go to work, school, to grocery shop, or fill their cars with gas. This isn't just "illegals" or immigrants with valid work permits, it is citizens who have had their cars rammed by ICE for merely looking Hispanic. Businesses are closing. Schools are 50 percent full. When they are open, fascists are calling in bomb threats because the
president decided to make us a meme. After a daycare teacher with a valid work permit (through 2030) was snatched from her workplace, parents (and grandparents) have had to organize to watch their SCHOOLS, to make sure conditional rights are observed. This is being repeated throughout Minnesota. Imagine trying to do your job or live you life while also taking volunteer shifts to make sure the federal
government doesn't act extrajudicially.
Because of ICE's documented abuses, neighbors have organized to monitor federal actions. This observation is legal, as long as it doesn't interfere with a valid action. Yet since ICE killed Renee Good, they are increasingly stopping this observation, breaking car windows and …”

Banks could step up, offer seniors a free, no-minimum balance checking account to prevent their SS payment cards from being stolen from the mailbox. A small, low-cost public service they could offer, to serve the vulnerable among us. They won't.
