Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government.

No one has heard from you in 119 days.

As vigil, I’m posting a photo or video of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

I've gotten a number of calls from constituents who are worried sick about their child's medical privacy.

Without any explanation, RFK Jr. is accessing medical records of autistic children to promote his wacko conspiracies. HHS must follow the science and protect the privacy of people with autism.

The autism study is planning to link confidential data "with broad coverage in the U.S. population" in one place for the first time.

HAPPENING SOON: At the courthouse in Greenbelt, Md., a sizeable protest has gathered in support of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

Judge Xinis is set to take the bench at 4. She was right on time Friday (as opposed to some judges who are chronically late)

A convicted felon who can't vote in 10 states is trying to illegally attack your right to vote.

I've written and passed bills that empower young voters, expand vote-by-mail, and secure our ballots so that every legal vote counts. NJ's elections are free and fair, and we’re going to keep it that way

Note that Donald Trump thinks that Karoline Leavitt, who hid the full extent of her campaign finance debt for years and who had ties to convicted fraudster Guo Wengui, is worthy of security clearance, but not military hero Mark Milley.

Here's her tie to Wengui.

Trump's new press secretary was paid for articles praising a con man
Before Guo Wengui was charged in a massive fraud scheme, his followers commissioned Karoline Leavitt to byline fawning op-eds.

The story that Elon uses to advance the idea that he was bullied in high school is that he was once pushed down some stairs. It came out later that he was pushed by a kid whose father had taken his life and Elon had been mocking him for it.
“Bottom line: Elon is not a Nazi but he did give two Nazi salutes… to appeal to the far-right wing of MAGA, to undermine Bannon.”

Respectfully (and I genuinely mean this), I’ve never heard a single regular person ask for “bipartisanship.” That’s inside nonsense.

They want things to work.

If the other party refuses to work for people, be the ones who will. Fight for people. Make it plain who isn’t, and who THEY’RE for.
It is time to look to the future.

The challenges that face America are many and great.

The Senate must respond with resolve, bipartisanship, and fidelity to the working and middle class of this country.

This refers to "rank and file DOGE staff." Ok, I'll bite. Who are they? Where are they? What is their source of funding? Who pays their salaries? Is DOGE a government entity? Which Congressional committee has oversight? Is it a business? Registered in what state? Is it a nonprofit? Is it tax-exempt?

As a small business owner, I am telling you I had to pass the cost of the last set of tariffs on to the consumer and I will again. However, as a small business, if I price too high I lose business. This won’t happen to the big corps. Trump’s tariff plan will kill small businesses.

Yeah, I'm okay with an echo chamber. I'm sure the Allied forces chatter was an echo chamber, too. They didn't need to hear the nazis weigh in while they were planning the Normandy invasion, and we don't either.
