The First Amendment is clear: The federal government can't punish media organizations just because it doesn't like what they have to say. By fighting back, ABC is sending an important message: Our rights are worth fighting for.

Reminder... Any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message — they can't win on their ideas alone.

Don't forget: my old Yale Law classmate Clarence Thomas refused to recuse from Jan. 6 cases despite his wife's involvement in the plot. And he's taken at least 100 gifts worth over $2 million while serving, including from GOP donor Harlan Crow. He's a disgrace to the Court.

People who think they're better than others because they follow Jesus are not, in any way, actually following Jesus.

This week, Senate Republicans blocked our SIXTH attempt to stop the president’s illegal war. We’re fighting this at every turn. Congress decides if we go to war – not Donald Trump.

BREAKING: We're suing Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. On the heels of a Supreme Court decision that eviscerated protections for voters of color, elected officials jumped at the chance to disenfranchise people — we won't allow it.

$400M for Trump's ballroom? On top of: -$1.5T for the Pentagon -$170B for ICE and Border Patrol -$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet -$496M to send National Guard into cities -$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation" -$100M for Trump's golf outings But nothing for working people.

Once again, Republicans are attacking a Democrat (Jeffries) for making a supposedly inflammatory statement that they claim incites violence, when it turns out he was directly quoting a statement from a member of the Trump admin.

There is a close relationship between Trump and violence — not just the attempts on his life but also the violence he’s unleashed on the world. That is no justification for what happened Saturday, of course, but it is part of what he has wrought in America. We are all worse off because of it.

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

When children are shot in their classrooms, all politicians can offer are thoughts and prayers. When a shooting happens near them, they demand a $350 million golden ballroom to protect themselves.
Don't normalize a system that protects power more than it protects children.

It should go without saying that, just because some bad people want to criminally do harm to other bad people, that does not mean that any of the bad people are not, in fact, bad people.

Ghislaine Maxwell abused young women & girls alongside Epstein for years. As young as 14. In multiple states. Convicted in a federal court. She belongs behind bars. I’m beyond disgusted that any of our colleagues would suggest a pardon. The real question is why has no one else been convicted?

Oversight members split over whether to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell, committee chair says
The only convicted associate of Jeffrey Epstein has said she would testify to Congress if granted clemency — a power held solely by the president.

The 10 highest-paid utility company executives raked in more than $220 million last year. Meanwhile, utility companies asked for a record $31 billion in rate increases, affecting 81 million customers across the country. Yes: utility CEOs are raking it in while millions struggle to pay their bills.

Trump at a UFC event last night told fighter Paulo Costa he’s too good-looking to fight. “You’re a beautiful guy. You could be a model, you look so good.” This was what Trump was doing as negotiations with Iran imploded.

Miles Taylor: "We’re just three people away from stopping Trump’s madman meltdown.

Three. 

That’s the number of House Republicans who — if they chose to act — could change history. Right now.

By demanding he step down, voting to impeach, or flipping control of the House."

Don’t let this fly under the radar: the Trump administration wants to kick ~6 million more people off of food assistance programs, including nearly 2 million children. That would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war. Priorities.
