Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

The Trump-Vance administration's funding freeze is illegal and causing chaos.

It has jeopardized funding for:
- Police officers
- Firefighters & first responders
- Childcare & schools
- Health care services

And much more.

Trump promised to lower costs. Instead, his actions will make you suffer.

DEI programs were created to give everyone who meet objective standards a fair shot at serving our country. Diversity has changed America for the BETTER. Rolling back these programs and offices with an executive order is completely disgraceful.

Families want good jobs, access to health care, quality education and strong infrastructure. These should be the priorities for our leaders – because they’re the priorities for all of us.

BREAKING: Donald Trump's HUD nominee Scott Turner just said he supports private equity in the housing market.

Turner was asked if "private equity investment" is a bad solution to our housing problem.

He responded by saying: "the more capital the better."

We are going to hear a lot over the next couple of years about how, despite controlling the White House, House, and Senate, Republicans just aren't able to get anything done because of Democrats

Josh Shapiro called the McDonald’s employee who reported Luigi Mangione a “hero.”

She will NOT get the $10,000 reward money because she called 911 instead of the tip line.

By the way, Josh Shapiro got $15,000 in donations from United Healthcare last year.

Numbers are fun.

✅Froze the state gas tax
✅Help Kentuckians save through homestead tax exemption

The lack of working class solidarity is killing this country. Instead of focusing on the issues that impact us the most as working class people, the right has allowed themselves to become distracted and outraged by less important issues, like what bathroom a trans person uses. Eg. Ohios senate race.
