Trump bombing Iran was illegal and unjustified.

I ran for Congress to make sure our leaders consider the true costs of war.

And I will be in the Senate, standing on my titanium legs, demanding answers from Trump.

Thank you Senator Wiener!
We’re announcing new legislation — the No Secret Police Act (SB 627) — to ban local/state/federal law enforcement, w/ some exceptions, from covering their faces when interacting w/ the public & require them to wear identifying info.

The secret police behavior we’re seeing destroys trust & must end🧵

The GENIUS Act has a major loophole allowing Big Tech companies and major retailers to issue their own private currencies structured as stablecoins.

This bill shouldn't pass without amendments preventing these risks.

When the statisticians will show you all their work, it's more than just a conspiracy theory.

I’m not saying Pennsylvania was stolen. But someone clearly didn’t expect this data to surface.
Statistical red flags outnumber the votes that gave Trump the win. And the official narrative hasn’t budged.

This wasn’t fiction. It happened here. In America. And just like in the galaxy far, far away, the message was clear: dissent will be punished, questions are dangerous, and power answers only to itself. But here’s the thing about Empires, people rise. Oppression breeds rebellion.

Senator dared to question the Empire, directly, and was met with force. Stormtroopers didn’t hesitate. They grabbed him, cuffed him, dragged him away like a dissident, claiming he “failed to identify himself.” But everyone knew who he was. He was a Senator.

The court just confirmed what we all know: The military belongs on the battlefield, not on our city streets.

End the unnecessary militarization of Los Angeles now, Donald Trump.

Refusing to do so will only confirm your authoritarian tendencies.

The country is watching.

Republicans are jamming through the GENIUS Act which will turbocharge Donald Trump’s crypto corruption.

We need an amendment vote to stop the President, Vice President, and senior government officials from directly or indirectly profiting from a stablecoin venture.

ICE has brought their terror tactics and masked agents to #Paramount this morning - in my district. This is unacceptable. We will demand answers and accountability.

For those out there - please stay safe, protest peacefully, and KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

Scanlon: The Gulf of Mexico was so named over 500 years ago. If we want to update that name to reflect our current culture, maybe we should call it the Sea of Emoluments—you know, the place where we can board the Ship of Fools and navigate from a State of Ignorance to the Confederacy of Dunces…
