Congress must act i

Help Kilmar Abrego Garcia get home

The recent deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a prison in El Salvador is a grave miscarriage of justice and a direct violation of due process. As a law-abiding member of our community with a family here in the United States, he was entitled to fair legal proceedings before any action was taken a

There must be consequences for this!

I am HORRIFIED that top Cabinet officials—including the Vice President, Secretary of Defense, and National Security Adviser—were caught using a commercial messaging app to discuss secret war plans for Yemen this week. Shockingly, they accidentally included a journalist in the group chat. This alarmi

The cabinet group chat was “the highest level of fuckup imaginable.”

Pete Buttigieg described the group chat of military strikes in Yemen as “The highest level of fuckup imaginable.” Every person on the group chat must be investigated and indicted. Their homes and all of their possessions should be searched. Their supports should be questioned. It wasn’t already obvi

Any Democrat who supports this—including Chuck Schumer—deserves to be held accountable. S

At a time when fascists and oligarchs are shredding our democracy, furiously lying every moment, to have any Democrat vote to censur one of our great representatives, Al Green, for speaking truth to dictator trump is obscene.

Decorum will not prevail over authoritarianism

You are missing the urgency of this moment. You frame this as a question of rules versus chaos, but what you fail to acknowledge is that the rules themselves are being weaponized by those who have no interest in democracy. The norms you seek to uphold are being used against you and against all of us

No censure of Al Green

Please be aware how disappointed your constituents are about your vote to censure Rep Al Green following his justified behavior at the SOTU on Tuesday night. This is no time for business as usual or maintaining the decorum of the status quo. Donald Trump is taking extreme measures to dismantle our d

Disappointed in censure vote

I am deeply disappointed in your vote to censure Representative Al Green following his outburst during the presidential address to Congress.
