1. The FBI affidavit used to seize ballots and other materials from the 2020 election in Fulton County relies on debunked conspiracy theories. For example, it isn’t true that Fulton first “reported” 511,343 ballots and then “reported” 527,925. I’ll explain.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.
What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?
I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.
ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.
I've said repeatedly that I will not support one dime of funding for Trump's lawless ICE operations.
The funding bill released today fails to sufficiently rein them in or ensure people's rights are protected.
I'm voting NO.
Renee Good was found with gunshot wounds to the chest, arm and head after a federal immigration officer shot her the morning of Jan. 7, according to the Minneapolis Fire Department’s incident report.
Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.
Trump and his cronies can try to dress this up, but it is an illegal act of war to replace Maduro and grab Venezuela's oil for his billionaire buddies.
Full statement below:
“Supreme Court reform is now the sine qua non of any reformist program in the United States, any program to re-implant/re-secure civic democracy in the United States”

This is so so disturbing. Trump is now pardoning January 6th rioters for unrelated crimes, just to reward them for their violence to keep him in power.
The Republican Party is in the full time business of endorsing and incentivizing political violence. So scary.

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."
We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.
But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan.
Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.
“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”
MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell
JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too
D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?
J: I didn't see it
D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.
This ought to be engraved somewhere.
🚨EXCLUSIVE:
Federal judges tell NBC News the Supreme Court has got to do a better job of explaining emergency rulings, with frequent decisions in favor of Trump at least appearing to validate harsh criticism of the judiciary at a time of rising threats:

Ossoff: Absolutely RFK JR should resign. He should have never been confirmed to begin with. He is utterly unqualified. This is someone who has embraced every piece of quackery and pseudoscience that he’s come across.

Gavin Newsom: “Wake up America. You will not have a country if he rigs this election. These guys are not screwing around. The most corrupt president in history. He is wrecking this country, wrecking the economy. He is a lawless president. Wake up America.”
Wow
New: Ghislaine Maxwell was technically ineligible to be transferred from to a minimum-security federal prison camp-- and the Bureau of Prisons had to waive a rule to facilitate the move, according to public records and a federal prison expert. With @lawofruby.bsky.social
Release the Trump spreadsheet.

Nothing, including "direct experience" or "material conditions," tells its own story. The voters who suffer from GOP policy are not going to know that they're suffering from GOP policy unless *someone tells them*.
I hoped never to see concentration camps like the ones I grew up in appear again in this country. Reading this breaks my heart.
Of 14,777 unique articles on the NYT's homepage over the 310 days from 1/1/24 to Election Day, 293 articles–almost one a day–focused on Biden’s age compared with just 27 articles focused on Project 2025, a ratio of 10.9 to one mediabiasdetector.seas.upenn.edu/blog/new-yor...
USAID didn’t fail. It fed 127,000 kids—then was erased mid-crisis. No speech. No tribute. Just silence. They didn’t end a program. They liquidated a covenant. The last American promise not built on conquest—but care.
