Melissa Bean @melissabeanil.bsky.social is running for the U.S. House of Representatives to represent Illinois' 8th Congressional District She has received over $400,000 in contributions linked to donors from (AIPAC). You work for the person who signs your check.

Please call your congressperson and ask them if they know it’s actually their job to stop billions of taxpayer dollars from being funneled into make-believe boards of peace …and to stop the president from unilaterally declaring war …and to demand compliance with the Epstein files Transparency Act

The Supreme Court is set to rule on Trump's tariffs, potentially impacting the global economy and raising concerns of a U.S. economic downturn should they be overturned.

Asking because I don't know the answer. Could individual members of Congress sue the administration for allocating $10 billion without having it appropriated by Congress? Do individual members have standing to go to Fed court?

The Constitution says "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law." Presidents who violate the Constitution should be impeached and removed from office.

My name is Dr. Jasmine Clark. The incumbent in my race hasn’t voted in the last seven elections. We can’t afford leaders who have fallen asleep at the wheel at this moment in history. That’s why I’m running for Congress in GA-13.

Today In Trump Graft and Corruption

Almost a month after abruptly dismantling exhibits about slavery from the President’s House, National Park Service employees began reinstalling the panels late morning on Thursday ahead of a court-imposed deadline. 🔗 www.inquirer.com/politics/nat...

Ted Lieu just went out on National TV and accused to president of rape and murder. I suspect we bomb Iran very soon

Trigger warning 😳 This is incredibly hard to watch! 💔 Please call Congress ☎️ youtube.com/shorts/4I7Me...

Listen closely to every word of this

FBI spoke to a victim of Epstein who also accused Trump of sexually & violently assaulting her, according to records in DOJ searchable DB. The records don’t show what became of the DOJ’s investigation, but documents indicate the govt found her a credible accuser open.substack.com/pub/sollenbe...

Bridge brigade volunteers. These people frickin' LOVE this country.

I know we’re all emotionally exhausted but please reach out to thank Majestic Realty Co to thank them. I assure you it will give you energy. These additional warehouses have to be intended for US citizens, their next step after rounding up immigrants.

🔔 INBOX — WILSON COUNTY: Tuesday 7PM is a county commission meeting where folks will have a chance to speak out against the planned ICE DETENTION CENTER Betsy Phillips: “Hell is here.” More: www.nashvillescene.com/news/pithint...

This funding is legally required to be disbursed as directed in the budget. It is illegal for this money to be withheld like this. Russell Vought and the entire Trump admin are in violation of the law and need to be prosecuted and the funding released. This is screwing over so many workers!

RFK Jr. - I was a heroin addict and snorted cocaine off toilet seats. Trump - I’m making you head of Health and Human Services.

Much gratitude to Minneapolis' courageous activists. We all owe them.

‪Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

When will Republicans, veterans organizations, & retired military officers speak up about this? No president in the history of the Republic has done this. Yet Trump, Vance, & Hegseth do it constantly. It betrays the most important core value of our military-no partisan politics.

New: District Judge Robert Gettleman issued an order yesterday mandating clergy be allowed inside the Broadview, IL ICE facility on Feb. 18 to offer those inside ashes and communion for Ash Wednesday. Gettleman found the govt has "substantially burdened plaintiffs’ exercise of religion."

Who knew that killing unarmed American citizens was going to be so unpopular (?)

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG: “I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.” The ad aged. The internet remembers.

Tuberville must smile every morning, knowing that Ron Johnson is still in the Senate, saving him from being the most stupid member of that body.

Trump is losing the war over ICE — both the culture war and the war in the streets. newrepublic.com/article/2062...

Some doctoral student needs to do a major study calculating how many Americans are being killed by the health quackery of Trump, RFK Jr., Dr. Oz and their co-conspirators.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today. It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files. Just wow.

As seen in a WSJ editorial: "If Democrats retake the House this fall, the Trump Administration will spend its final two years working in the shade, because it’ll be hard to see the sun through flying subpoenas." gift link www.wsj.com/opinion/dona...

Yes that it the timeline we are in. And *NO* we will not accept camps.

I had to read his entire Wikipedia entry to find at the end that a seemingly decent looking Krishamoorthi is tainted by taking money from Trump-adjacent donors profiteering from ICE and donating to the East Wing desecration/ballroom

Mike Bost is lost, get his corrupt Ass out of Congress, and out of the VA directors office. He is enabling this F elon/ tRUMP TRAIN WRECK that is taking away services. It couldn't happen without him! Get him out.

Yes, Democrats could win the Senate. Ron Brownstein explains the obstacles, the opportunities, and the key variables to watch. You don’t have to be a political junkie to love this conversation. But if you are a political junkie, I think it’s kind of a must watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=69fx...

Leaders of the so-called “pro-life, small government” party who relentlessly warn of tyranny are standing by as masked agents roam the country and brutalize its people. The hypocrisy isn’t surprising — but it’s staggering. Remember this.
