This is a visual representation of Donald Trump's contempt for our democracy, for America's national security, and for YOU:

House Republicans plan to unveil a bill next month, likely including plans for $3.5 trillion in tax breaks for the wealthy and giant corporations. They want to slash critical programs for hardworking Americans, and then turn around & spend more on their rich buddies. Outrageous.

We have 870 federal judges in this country, and a basic code of conduct applies to all but nine: our Supreme Court justices. We can't allow justices to be for sale to the highest billionaire bidders. Congress must reform the Court to prevent further corruption.

The debt ceiling doesn’t keep our national debt down, but it does threaten long-term financial harm. Watch me apply a debt ceiling to everyday life—and see why it doesn’t work.

We need to claw back lavish pay from failed bank executives. CEOs who blow up their banks — by loading up on risk to boost their profits and pad their pockets — should not walk away scot-free as the government cleans up their mess. I’ve got a bipartisan bill to get it done.

.@SenWarren: "How much of the $40 million dollars that you earned from loading up SVB bank with risk are you planning to return to the FDIC?" Former SVB CEO Gregory Becker: "I know there's going to be a process review of compensation." Warren: I'll take that as a no.

As a boycotter, I wonder… Imagine, if you will, the crushing blow to Donald Trump’s fragile, narcissistic ego if CNN had rescinded its invitation. Or, imagine — had they carried on with the imbecilic spectacle and things unfolded differently — if Trump received little to no applause throughout the course of the #CNNTownHall. Sparse cheers. Even better: Silence and boos for the traitor. Why in the world is anyone cheering a lying, cheating, monstrous sexual abuser? Why?

Is @CNN still going to do a town hall with the sexual predator twice impeached insurrectionist former president @realDonaldTrump? I’m not watching it. I think it’s absurd for a major news network to normalize Trump.

Never forget that @SpeakerMcCarthy raised the debt ceiling three times to feed the rich, but he won’t do it to feed the rest of us.

If you’re incapable of understanding financial disclosure forms, you shouldn’t be interpreting the constitution.

Our Supreme Court isn't just conservative; it's corrupted. The Court caters to special interest donors, including by choosing which cases to hear and which to ignore. We can clean up the Court through a code of ethics and term limits—and by expanding the number of justices.

[NEW] Defrauding the Voters of Mecklenburg It's obvious that @triciacotham lied to the voters of Mecklenburg county - that much is clear. She was likely recruited by the NCGOP to run as a trojan horse candidate in a county they can no longer win. carolinaforward.org/blog/def… #ncpol

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tells The Lever that if somebody doesn't introduce articles of impeachment for Clarence Thomas soon, she will, in the wake of ProPublica's bombshell reporting about his luxury vacations from a Republican megadonor.

What we are seeing in the Nashville legislature is an authoritarian scene worthy of the bleak history of Europe in the 1930s.

For decades, Justice Clarence Thomas has secretly accepted luxury trips from a major Republican donor, newly obtained documents and interviews show. The extent and frequency of these apparent gifts to Thomas has no known precedent in modern SCOTUS history... 🧵👇

Leslie Stahl’s interview isn’t a one-off atrocity. It’s just one symptom of the media turning a blind eye to fascism. In just the last two weeks alone, the mainstream media have refused to recognize the threat posed by the Republican party and its de facto leader, Donald Trump. First, they based an entire week of reporting and analysis on Donald’s social media post that falsely claimed he was going to be arrested on March 21. Then, 60 Minutes made the confounding decision to give a platform to insurrectionist and fascist Marjorie Taylor Greene. The Republican Party has fallen in line behind Donald and, now that indictments against him have been announced, they will stop at nothing to undermine the American people’s faith in the rule of law. Donald’s attacks on social media against NY DA Alvin Bragg have already resulted in an avalanche of death threats. But just as they did in 2016, the media keep giving Donald millions of dollars worth of air time. It’s time for the media to take sides—democracy or fascism. It shouldn’t be that fucking hard.

I’m joining parents, students, librarians and teachers to oppose the GOP's MAGA federal power grab over local schools, a phony "Parents' Bill of Rights" designed to extend their rampant book banning and suppression of history.
