I re-registered as an un-affiliated this year, after a lifetime being a Democrat. My principles and ethics have not changed.

Ice is lawless & violent!

These masked thugs are abducting & torturing people including US CITIZENS!

Will your kid, spouse, siblings, grandparent or grandchildren next?

Call Congress and demand accountability!

If it can happen to them, it can happen to you!

"Zohran knows the cost of living is crushing working people. But here’s what makes him different: he doesn’t throw up his hands and say, 'that’s just how it is.' He believes something radical—that government can actually work for us." - @seiupres.bsky.social

When Trump said he would bring on a "New Golden Age," he was talking about his wallet.

#Tariffs

Google "SMOOT HAWLEY ACT & GREAT DEPRESSION"

Then watch video from "Ronald Reagan Library," which they posted w no use restrictions.

#TRUMP IS A LIAR.

Reagan DID NOT love tariffs. He lived through the depression!

Donald Trump is telling his DOJ to prosecute people involved in defeating him in 2020. He will claim the 2025 California referendum was fraudulent. He is going to try to impose voter ID and ban mail-in and early voting for 2026.

I will do everything I can in the courtroom and in public to stop him.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social , Repeat in the media ad nauseum:Republicans changed the Senate rules to confirm 100+ unqualified partisan hack nominees. They are in control and can pass a budget any time. The government never had to shut down and it's ALL ON THEM.
