Then I, as your constituent, expect you to vote NO on the upcoming bill that provides funding to ICE. Defund ICE now.
President Trump has crossed the line. Americans will not stand for masked, armed troops roaming their neighborhoods. ICE is not trained in this capacity and should not be on streets. This incident should be investigated immediately and not politicized by the President.
NEW: Man fatally shot by federal agents in Minneapolis identified as 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Jeffrey Pretti, family members tell the AP.

Hey, I'm just one person. But these are some bare minimums of the action I expect from US senators and reps right now.
Thank you for posting this, Senator. Please back up these words with action and (1) call for the impeachment of Noem, (2) vote AGAINST any funding for ICE, including voting against funding for "reform" or "training" or body cams, which will not work and will only give ICE more money...

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court is going to hear West Virginia's effort to ban the state's only transgender athlete, 15-year-old Becky Pepper-Jackson.
Win or lose, I need your help making sure Becky knows she's a hero for standing up for what's right

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Pediatric phalloplasty is something that takes place when there is severe genital injury or a congenital condition. I have not been able to find a single report of phalloplasty performed on a transgender minor.
This is grotesque fear-mongering.

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

Schumer must retire.
One of two things is true:
1. Chuck Schumer genuinely felt this is a bad deal, so he voted against it, but he couldn't keep Senate Dems in line because he's a lackluster leader.
OR
2. Chuck Schumer orchestrated the shutdown deal w/ retiring Dems because he's a bad strategist and got rattled.

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

A couple of weeks ago @kenmartin.bsky.social sent me an email asking me to “Invest in the DNC” with a slick powerpoint deck attached. This was my (as of yet unanswered) response.
I’ll invest in the Dems when they give me something to invest in.
