The MAGA Voter ID provision is a cover up to the SAVE Act’s core voter suppression provisions. Let’s be clear: this bill and this provision are about purging millions of Americans from the voter rolls to tip the scales for a flailing Donald Trump.

ICE needs to leave the airports NOW. Trump needs to pay TSA workers NOW, and push Republicans to reach a deal. No intimidation forces at our airports. No more chaos at checkpoints. Enough is enough.

Copperhead Don and the Neoconfederates

Yet another policy proposal premised on believing Roberts Court would overrule the governing precedent

SCOTUS this morning hearing oral args in what’s probably the most bad faith case the Roberts Court has ever granted, and that’s really saying something. I’m expecting this to be a rare loss for the vote suppressors bc CA5 sided with their too-insane arg and forced the justices’ intervention.

Even some Republican Senators are openly admitting they have no clue what the Administration is trying to accomplish in the Middle East. Enough is enough. End this war.

BREAKING: I’m bringing a motion to the floor to FULLY FUND TSA. Republicans Senators will be forced on the record: they can either vote to fund TSA for good or be fully responsible for its continued shutdown.

OFUUPOS

We could fully fund paid family leave AND universal child care for kids across America. But Trump wants $200 billion for his war in Iran, not for you.

Every accusation is a confession.

Pay attention to Lebanon. Trump and Netanyahu started a regional war in the Middle East, creating a humanitarian disaster. And now, the Israeli army has killed over 1,000 people in Lebanon—about 20% of them are kids. Congress should not bankroll this escalating war of choice.

This becoming public is a big deal

Cops are Republicans.

I haven’t had notifications on my phone in a decade. A list of exactly five people can break through my DND if they call twice. This freaks 1) millennials 2) Gen Z 3) students out to no end. I don’t know how we ever thought this was okay but then again I’m old.

This is a total non-starter and every Democrat should fiercely oppose it. Authorizing a single dollar more for this illegal war would be unconscionable (much less $200B more!). If your congressmember isn’t raising all sorts of hell to stop this, then it’s time to replace them.

The Davidson Campaign went silent on Bluesky one month ago. This was their last post.

CA9 rejects challenge to federal law permanently disarming people convicted of domestic violence misdemeanors. All-Dem panel (Clinton/Obama/Biden) lines up with every other circuit that has decided the issue post-Bruen. cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/op...

Note that Democrats oppose this bill because we oppose voter suppression on principle, even when it helps us.

Let’s win the war over our constitution’s very existence so we can get back to the days when a case like this one drawing a line on police searches under the 4th Amendment would be a reasonably big deal. www.ca10.uscourts.gov/sites/ca10/f...

We need to end prediction markets for government action. NOW. This bone chilling story about a reporter’s life threatened bc he simply reported on Iran missile strikes: “After you make us lose $900,000 we will invest no less than that to finish you.”

From the Nat'l Guard case:

From the Cook case:

Excellent @elienyc.bsky.social piece. Even when this SCOTUS sides against Trump, the Court's right-wing power center (not to be confused with centrists) led by Chief Justice Roberts insists on maintaining the presumption of regularity.

Crazy crazy story. Times of Israel reporter ( English language Israeli news site ) gets escalating death threats to change story that’s at center of big polymarket bet. www.timesofisrael.com/gamblers-try...

And when Trump is gone, the Roberts Court will still be there standing in the way of the American people saving our country.

Lawler’s out here retrofitting rationality onto an entirely irrational administration’s illegal war.

🚨 GOP Rep. Mike Lawler is secretly employing a Black political activist who criticized Democrats for traveling to Israel and benefiting from a “Jewish organized spending spree.” Darrell Davis, who chairs a Black civil rights group, has been paid $18,600 by the Lawler campaign since June 2024.

Listen this is the god’s honest truth!

As we face the aftermath of another synagogue attack, reminder: The federal government is now requiring synagogues to cooperate with ICE and have no DEI programs to be eligible for federal security funding, which were not requirements pre-Trump administration. www.timesofisrael.com/us-jewish-le...

Gonna use my hard-earned law degree to participate in those much higher levels of Congressional oversight mikesacksforcongress.com

2026: Shut down media that they cannot buy to lie or will not comply with lies

🧵

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

This administration’s relentless and cruel efforts to terminate TPS status for our Haitian community is putting thousands at risk in the Hudson Valley and across the country.

We need an end to this war and an Administration that actually cares about the lives of its troops.

Pete Hegseth is more concerned about his PR than the lives of service members. As someone who has been to war, who has led troops overseas, it’s disgusting. Americans are dead, several more are injured.

Mike Lawler has been devastating for our environment and for our future. He has enabled this administration's dangerous cuts to affordable clean energy and environmental protections, raising our electric bills and making pollution worse. Our families cannot afford another 2 years of Mike Lawler.

Climate change is a national security crisis, and it’s time we address it with urgency. I’m proud to stand with @nrdcactionfund.org as we fight to invest in the Hudson Valley by prioritizing clean energy to create good-paying jobs, lower utility bills, and build a more resilient, sustainable future.

bUt HOW r u GoNnA payyyy 4 thAT

This is the way

Trump’s missile strike in Iran hit a girls’ school and killed innocent children. The American people deserve answers.

I was asked by Jake Tapper if my push to deny Trump funding for his illegal war with Iran was a failure to "support our troops". My answer: refusing to repeat the mistakes of the past - sending soldiers to die in pointless Middle East wars - is how we support our troops

Mike -- you are a member of Congress. You have continually enabled and supported this Administration's role in jacking up prices, from illegal tariffs to gutting health insurance and SNAP benefits. Take some responsibility.

Mike Lawler is blaming rising prices on nurses and healthcare workers? Are you kidding me?
