Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who remembers how trump had protesters in DC shot with rubber bullets and tear gassed... just for his stupid photo op. THAT is why we warn the military not to follow unlawful orders. He will issue them.

Why did they tell the military not to follow illegal orders? Because the president of the united states is a convicted felon who has previously given illegal orders but there were people in place to stop him. He now has a cabinet full of sycophants that are afraid of him.

Mad respect for these 6 patriots standing up for what’s right. Give them a 👏 if you agree!

I reviewed a call between President Trump and the Saudi Crown Prince after the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.   Today, his widow joined me at the U.S. Capitol to call on President Trump to release the transcript of that call.   🎧 Hear from @HananElatr yourself:

President Trump doesn't just have a problem with Democrats when he's trying to slide his sycophants into U.S. Attorney roles. He has a problem with Senate Republicans, Republican-appointed judges and the Constitution.

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Donald Trump sees loyalty to anything but himself as the greatest sin you can commit. Well, my loyalty is to the Constitution, not to Donald Trump. I won’t back down from it.

Sen. BLUMENTHAL: This report ought to shock America’s conscience. At least 22 American citizens were treated in a way we would not tolerate for anyone. Our fellow citizens are being abused and mistreated by ICE agents and the United States government.

I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

In under a minute, the President: - Calls affordability a "hoax" - Floats a third term - Hawks his own merch Indifferent to people’s suffering and our constitution, and insufferably self-promoting. A typical Tuesday night for the so-called leader of the free world.

Good morning and Happy Wednesday to everyone who is NOT surprised that there are receipts of Pete Hegseth slamming trump for illegal orders -- and saying EXACTLY what Senator Kelly said. The hypocrisy is insane.

Donald Trump just ended a rule that required airlines to compensate you for delayed or canceled flights. Why? Maybe because the airlines donated big bucks to Trump. Or maybe because the Secretary of Transportation used to be an airline lobbyist. Either way, you lose.

In America, we don't disappear people. That's why I'm introducing a bill with Congresswoman Maxine Dexter to make sure that anyone detained by ICE has the chance to call their family, consult with a lawyer, and report abuse or illegality confidentially.

BREAKING: A federal judge just ordered Donald Trump to end the misuse of the military in Los Angeles and send the 100 National Guard members still deployed home. This abuse of our service members and waste of taxpayer dollars has gone on long enough. Time for it to stop.

BREAKING: In a powerful moment and huge rebuke of Donald Trump, the Chair of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, just admitted it is Trump’s tariffs that are now raising Americans prices.

Trump’s top priorities have included: -Paving over the Rose Garden -Putting gold leaf all over the Oval Office -Demolishing the East Wing for a ballroom -Building a giant Arch & naming it after himself Notable exclusions: lowering the cost of housing, health care, or groceries.

There is no question about it: Alito, Thomas, Roberts, and the three Trump Supreme Court appointees are all GOP partisan hacks. Pass term limits. Expand the court. Enact an enforceable code of ethics. We must keep pushing Democrats to enact court reform.

As Trump continues to manufacture a cover story for armed conflict with Venezuela, I'm calling on Congress to block him from using taxpayer dollars to launch a regime change war. Tune in: x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

🚨BREAKING: Trump just said that CNN's leaders are either corrupt or incompetent and "should not be allowed to operate" and should be sold, and he will likely be involved in the decision. This is the blueprint for American fascism in real time.

Chicago is where Michelle was raised, where I got my start as an organizer, and where we built a family together. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next June, it will be our way to give back to a city that has given us so much.
