A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to reallocate federal Homeland Security funding away from states that refuse to cooperate with certain federal immigration enforcement. https://cnn.it/3NhAreY

Everyone – regardless of immigration status – has the right to worship freely. Any attempts to violate that right will be met with swift legal action.

A man who has never served a day in his life is taking away Veterans' freedom to choose in cases of rape, incest or when the health of the mother is at risk. Trump is putting millions of Veterans in danger. And he did it during the holiday season thinking we wouldn’t notice.

Melissa Hortman was an amazing gift to Minnesota. We miss her. RIP Melissa. 💔

Minnesotans support meaningful action to prevent gun violence. Speaker Demuth needs to put the bills on the floor - TAKE THE VOTE. Our children are counting on us; we will not back down! We support restricting high capacity magazines and banning assault weapons. AND, Safe Storage requirement!

In Northfield, I heard from a local business owner struggling just as much as they did during COVID. Small businesses like theirs are the heart of our towns, but these massive tariffs are making it impossible to survive.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head. That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

President Clinton is right. This is not getting as much attnetion as it should. The USA under Trumpstein is betraying this promise, which means any agreement involving Russia and the USA is not worth the paper it’s written on 🤷‍♂️ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapes...

This is shameful, tacky, trashy and illegal. Adding your disgusting criminal name on top of the name of a great President makes you look weak and pathetic. It’ll always be The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center For The Performing Arts.

SNAP is a lifeline for workers in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

If we trade the American health care and early childhood systems for Denmark's too, you have a deal. Otherwise, that would be dumb.

When the Department of Justice blatantly violates the law to protect wealthy and politically connected pedophiles, then we have no Justice Department and we have no justice.

Mike Johnson has lost control of the House, as we continue to push through petitions to force the votes he tries so hard to run from. Congress may be closed for the Holiday, but their inboxes aren’t. Let’s flood them with messages and urge them to vote yes on extending ACA tax credits!

Since his appointment, RFK Jr. has pursued a brutal vision of American health that several experts liken to a sort of eugenics. Kennedy has made it clear that certain deaths are acceptable or even preferable to a world where every child is vaccinated. Read more: www.theverge.com/health/66136...

Life is too expensive in the United States. And Republicans have done nothing about it. You deserve better.

The little orange bars on the right are what Trump is calling “the greatest economy in history.”

Today's U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that the unemployment rate rose to 4.6 percent, the highest level since the pandemic. The economy lost jobs on balance over the months of October (-108,000 jobs) and November (+64,000 jobs). My statement: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

From ICE raids to the President's hateful comments, this administration is as vile and as horrible as it can be.

Of course they won't allow a vote on the bipartisan package that they know would pass. Too many extremes Republicans don't want their NO vote on record for a bill that actually provides healthcare insurance relief. Just shameful.

The architect of Trump’s hardline immigration policies has been called out by his own cousin for seeking to “take away” the opportunities that allowed their own immigrant family to thrive.

🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

I would also add that Trump has pulled lots and lots of federal agents normally tasked with investigating serious crimes off those duties to do immigration enforcement with ICE. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The ACA isn't just "health care for people who don't have a conventional employer." It also disallows something that was incredibly common 20 years ago, which I fear is getting lost to generational memory: insurance companies could deny you health care for essentially any previous health problem.

Australian here 👋 Stop saying the tragedy in Sydney demonstrates that strict gun laws don’t work. There were ZERO mass shootings in Australia in the two decades after strict gun laws were passed in 1996. We have so much we need to do, but strict gun laws remain a critical part of the solution.

13 years ago today.

🧵Some of the data listed in the 2025 marketplace survey conducted by KFF is truly devastating. Now, since we know the tax credits are gone, even more so. 61% of enrollees ALREADY struggle to pay their deductibles/OOP maximums. 51% struggle to afford the premiums. This www.kff.org/public-opini...

"In the first Trump administration, the family separation policy became a scandal. Now, ICE and border patrol agents are routinely separating parents from children, even to the point of ripping nursing infants from their mothers. Do you feel safer now? I feel deeply ashamed."

Biden - ““Get Up” and take back our democracy.”

Ossoff: "This is one of the most consequential votes this Senate will take all year. By saying yea or nay to the clerk of the Senate later today, senators will decide whether people live or die. Senators will decide whether Georgians & folks across the country are financially ruined or have a shot."

Call NOW, call everyday @indivisible.org @dfl.org @minnesotareformer.com @mn50501.bsky.social

CALL your GOP Reps & Senators NOW & everyday. Extend ACA Tax credits. They have had 15 YEARS to do plan & have nothing. In July, intentionally excluded ACA credits to give tax beaks to billionaires. ZERO $ for you; mega $ for ultra rich. Demand their vote; 20m Americans at risk. @indivisible.org

Everyone-if you live in a district with a GOP Senator or Rep, call them NOW, later today & every day. They have no solutions; they MUST vote to extend ACA tax credits. In July, they purposely excluded them to give tax breaks to billionaires. They are all tax policy; they just chose billionaires.

Caleb Ragland, president of the American Soybean Association, on Trump's farm bailout: "This is a band-aid on an open wound ... what we truly need are market-based solutions"

Under Article 1, Section 8, of the US Constitution, Congress -- and NOT the Executive Branch -- has the sole right to establish laws and regulations concerning immigration and naturalization. Despite that, Trump is arbitrarily cancelling naturalizations for people from counties he doesn't like.

More and more businesses are asking for relief from Trump’s tariff taxes because they raise costs and undermine their ability to succeed. We must end these reckless across-the-board tariffs.

Trump promised to “protect American jobs.” Reality: Musk & DOGE decimated federal jobs. Tariffs and immigration raids cost us jobs. Cutting wind & solar power takes away jobs and drives electric costs up 📈. Insisting old power plants keep operating adds even more to the #TrumpInflationCrisis

Secretary Noem must go. Secretary Hegseth must go. wp.me/p1F9Ho-cuY

Donald Trump believes his mission is “righteous enough to justify whatever means were employed,” Jeff Flake writes. On the issue of the administration’s boat strikes, “the public deserves the chance to judge for itself. Release the video, Mr. President”:

George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran detained for three days by ICE: "It's important that no one has to go through this…I'm not scared of the government or what they say about me…They are refusing to take accountability, but I'm not scared."

"She said she repeatedly told the agents she’s a U.S. citizen. “I just kept repeating it — I’m a U.S.-born citizen. I was born and raised here. This is my home. My baby’s waiting for me...” She screamed “Leave me alone...” www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Adam Kinzinger “The founders assumed a guy like #Trump would come along — They never assumed a Congress would so willingly give up their power—“ And by extension, a Supreme Court

We're half a decade into studies finding that improving airflow in classrooms will reduce disease transmission enormously, and that bleaching surfaces etc. does very little. And yet nothing changes. Waves of flu and colds wash over schools, and the schools pretend it's an act of God.

Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

All those folks who assured me in January that it would never happen to American citizens… I haven’t heard much from them lately.

And, today, again, Trump said that inflation had 'disappeared'. Is he delusional enough to think people will believe that if they bury the report? Hey, guess what? People know when prices are going up. They don't need a report.

(AP) — A federal judge has struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order blocking wind energy projects, saying the effort to halt virtually all leasing of wind farms on federal lands and waters was “arbitrary and capricious” and violates U.S. law.
