There are credible reports that federal agents may be replaying the 2020 playbook and surging into Portland with the goal of provoking conflict and violence in my hometown. I am in close contact with state and local officials to monitor this activity.

He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons.
He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.
He’s defying the Supreme Court.

Well said. Trumps tariffs tirade
You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

This isn't The Art of the Deal.
It's insider trading with a bad comb-over.
Step 1: Tank the Market, Scare the Non-Millionaires
Step 2: Let the Aristocrats Feast
Step 3: Flip, but say ‘Winning’
Step 4: Pretend None of This Ever Happened & Get Your Media Dregs To Do The Same
Rinse, Enrich, Repeat.

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers.
Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

Trump has chosen sides. And they aren’t our allies
“You should have never started it.”
Such ignominious ignorance.
Such betrayal of our ally.
Such a cowardly surrender.

I know folks are frustrated that congressional Dems aren't yet a unified opposition force. Same. But while we're working to build that, we can't give a pass to these complicit Senate GOP facing reelection next year. Proud Indivisible is launching this today:
