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.

Shoutout to Adam Schiff for saying what Republicans won’t—Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires are moving forward, and working people are about to lose their healthcare.

Next: make every House Republican vote on it. Let them show us who they really work for.

There were four Republican-backed extreme constitutional amendments on the ballot in Louisiana yesterday.

The voters REJECTED them all (in a state Trump won by 22 points in November).

Keep the pressure on.

We need to save our health care.

I voted NO on RFK Jr.

I will vote NO on FDA Commissioner.

I will vote NO on NIH Director.

I will vote NO on all of Trump's nominees.

And I will vote NO on a funding bill that is nothing more than a giveaway to Elon Musk and Republicans.

Meghan McCain. Megyn Kelly. Ted Cruz. Marco Rubio.

The sheer number of people that Trump has publicly humiliated and insulted - either directly or by going after their family members - and who then bent the knee to him, and sucked up to him, is truly astonishing.

What is with conservatives??

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.

I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Defiantly,

It was Republican Congressman Dan Newhouse who introduced the censure resolution of @algreen.house.gov today.

Funny how Newhouse didn't have any of that energy for the repeated outbursts, interruptions, and "incivility" of Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert in 2022, 2023, and 2024.
