This is the race experts say will decide Senate control

No war.

[ [link removed] ][IMG] Friend, Trump has gone to war with Iran. It’s illegal and unconstitutional. It’s yet another dangerous, destabilizing, and deadly action by an erratic president. Trump has consistently exaggerated the imminence of Iran’s nuclear threat, even after insisting the Unite…

DHS has another death on their hands.

Georgia

We will not be fooled by Trump’s fear-mongering and constant lies.

[ [link removed] ][IMG] I skipped the State of the Union last night, but my staff filled me in on what I missed. It’s incredibly clear that a year into his second term, Donald Trump and his administration is more extreme, more violent, more incompetent, and more of a failure than ever befor…

the most corrupt president in US history

[ [link removed] ][IMG] We're all looking at a giant portrait of Donald Trump going up at the US Department of Justice here in Washington. It’s a reminder, in classic authoritarian style, that Trump has made unprecedented moves to turn the DOJ into his personal legal team and a tool of inti…

Trump just lost “bigly” in court

[ [link removed] ][IMG] Trump just lost “bigly” in court. The Supreme Court has struck down Trump’s global tariffs in a sharp rebuke from his own right-wing appointees. This is a big win for both our democracy and the wallets of working Americans. Since Trump came back into power, he …

Endangerment

Rigged

[ [link removed] ][IMG] Trump sees the writing on the wall. His presidency is unpopular, and Republicans are going to get wiped in November’s midterms. So now he and his cronies are trying to rig this year’s elections in any way they can. Our Constitution very smartly delegates the administ…
