Donald Trump’s targeting of Attorney General James isn’t justice — it’s vengeance. Make no mistake: this is a direct attack on our rule of law and our democracy.

In the midst of Republicans' government shutdown, Democrats aren't just on frontlines of the fight for Americans' access to affordable healthcare.

Democrats are fighting for a government that serves the people—not the powerful.

"We are not stepping aside from health care for America's working families to give tax breaks to the richest people in our country," - Speaker Emerita @pelosi.house.gov on the GOP's government shutdown.

I sat down with my friend @libradunn1.bsky.social and we talked about his experience on January 6th and why it's crucial for us to stay engaged as we live through the most corrupt administration in American history.

There’s nothing more rewarding than good conversations with good leaders. I’m proud to be part of a coalition that’s ready to stand up and do the work to protect our democracy.

End Citizens United @endcitizensunited.bsky.social · 1d

Tonight’s town hall is yet another example of how Democrats are stepping up while Republicans refuse accountability. For these leaders, government is about the people — not dark money and corporate special interests.

Mob Boss Politics 101: Deploying the National Guard to yet another an American city and then threatening to jail your political opponents.

President Trump has called for the jailing of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, both Democrats, for “failing to protect” ICE officers who have been sent to the city.

Trump says Chicago mayor, Illinois governor should be jailed for response to ICE

Trump, without providing evidence, said Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker should go to jail for “failing to protect” immigration agents.

Corrupt Trump gutted the FEC and gave license to other corrupt politicians to ignore campaign finance laws.

Former FEC commissioner and @endcitizensunited.bsky.social senior fellow @ellenlweintraub.bsky.social gave much-needed insight as to how this will impact our elections.

The Federal Election Commission is down to 2 members. So its work is at a standstill

The Federal Election Commission, which regulates campaign finance, has lost another member. But the FEC has actually been without a quorum for months, leaving the agency unable to do much of its work.

Corrupt Republicans shut down the government because they care about their billionaire donors more than Americans' healthcare. Listen to what @mcbride.house.gov had to say about the GOP's shutdown from the virtual town hall @endcitizensunited.bsky.social hosted last week.

Mike Johnson is straight-up denying the voters of #AZ07 the representation they deserve. Why? To keep the Epstein files hidden and shield creepy elites from accountability.

Shame on him.

In 2018, Congressman Golden made history when he became the first challenger to defeat an incumbent in #ME02 in 100 years.

His message was simple: reject corporate PAC money, root out corruption, and put people first.

We look forward to helping his reelection campaign.

Tiffany Muller @tiffanymuller.bsky.social · 3d

Since 2018, @endcitizensunited.bsky.social has been one of Congressman Golden's biggest supporters. He’s a rare example of integrity because he can’t be bought by special interests or Big Money––and he’s the only chance Democrats have of winning this race.

End Citizens United @endcitizensunited.bsky.social · 3d

🚨 We’re proud to endorse Congressman Jared Golden in the #ME02 primary! The only chance Democrats have to keep this seat blue is to make sure he’s our nominee in the general election. 🧵

Republicans are mistaken if they think Democrats will let them pass a budget that screws over working Americans and makes healthcare unaffordable.

Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Congressional Democrats are standing firm on behalf of the American people.

Wannabe King Trump doesn't care about Americans losing health care or active duty Military and National Guard members not being paid during the MAGA shutdown.

All he cares about? A giant gilded ballroom in which to continue his corruption spree.
