Donald Trump is deporting legal US residents to a foreign gulag, and he has stated publicly that he is moving on to citizens next. This is a Constitutional crisis. Will a single Republican stand up for our Constitution?

And yet, it shows a chink the armor. The protests and the boycotts are having an effect. We need to keep going.
Grocery prices are soaring.

Housing costs are skyrocketing.

Retirement savings are plummeting.

But Donald Trump thought today would be a good day to play car salesman.

President Trump has for years exaggerated the size of US trade deficits with various other countries. Now, as Trump cites those trade deficits as a key justification for his tariff policies, newly released federal statistics show how wrong Trump’s numbers are. | Fact check

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

Good news: after we raised the alarm, DOGE has been blocked from accessing sensitive Department of Education data.

Your Social Security number, income data, and personal information are safe for now.

We will keep fighting back.
If you're one of the 40 million people with student loans, Elon Musk’s team may have gotten access to your Social Security number, income data, and personal information.

I'm leading 18 senators in an investigation into DOGE’s actions at the Department of Education.

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.
