Disgusted, but not surprised. House Republicans are once again trying to censor Democrats—this time by coming for committee seats because my colleagues dared to conduct oversight.

No one is above the law — not even the President of the United States. We are in a constitutional crisis, and we must meet this moment with the urgency it requires.

Today we mourn the loss of Mrs. Edna Pemberton—a fierce advocate, a fearless voice, and a true community leader. She didn’t just believe in change—she was the change.
North Texas and the world are better because of the work she did and the lives she touched.
May she rest in power.

Republicans just passed a budget that guts Medicaid, SNAP, veterans’ benefits, and free school lunches.
They swore they'd fix the economy—but this sure as hell ain’t it.

In 2020, Trump tried to ban TikTok.
He cited one of his reasons was "retaliation for the China virus".
He tried to force a sale to American Oligarchs. He was overruled by a federal judge.
In 2021, Biden revoked Trump's EO banning TikTok.

Enough with the academic rhetoric when it comes to Trump messing everything up with these tariffs. It is TRUMPFLATION, period. Put it on the gas pumps, in the grocery stores, on the coffee cups. No more jargony white papers, just call what we see for what it is!

The Tariff Act of 1930 was designed for protectionist trade. It imposed high tariffs on over 20,000 imported goods which led to retaliatory tariffs from other countries.

Republicans are advancing a bill that would fire all government workers - including Veterans - from offices related to diversity, equity, and inclusion, banning them from being reassigned.
