Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

What's in the Trump/GOP big, beautiful bill?
-Tax cuts skewed to the rich
-Medicaid & SNAP cuts
-Ends IRS Direct File
-New powers for Trump over the courts
-Blocks state/local regulation against AI, including rent-gouging software like RealPage
It's a big, ugly nightmare.

Tonight, I introduced legislation to stop Trump from from leading us into an illegal war with Iran.
Another war in the Middle East could cost countless lives, waste trillions more dollars, and lead to even more deaths, more conflict, and more displacement.

Trump is trying to normalize the ICE raids/troops on our streets and the violence you're seeing as a result of all this. He's hoping for the violence in blue cities.
Donald Trump just laid bare his real immigration plan:
1) Target blue cities
2) Inflame tensions, divide families and stir up more chaos
3) Placate the MAGA base at the expense of our economy.
Trump’s extreme policies are tearing the country apart and bad for America.
