Schumer on the SAVE America Act: "It is not about showing ID when you show up to vote. It's about the voter registration rolls, destroying them, purging them, not letting people know, and taking the rights in an algorithm but together by DOGE and Musk -- it's an outrage"

Trump launched military strikes on Iran with no plan for the fallout, and Americans are paying on average $0.56 per gallon more at the pump.

Here are the facts Trump hopes you never see:

MERKLEY: So when the VP said 'ICE agents have absolute immunity' in violating people's civil rights, he was effectively correct?

BIER: Effectively, yes. Right now as the law stands.

Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement β€” way more tolerance for civilian harm.

We were privileged to host Reps. Joe Morelle, Lucy McBath, Jason Crow, and @gregcasar.bsky.social for a Conversation on Democracy.

These champions are protecting free and democratic elections so all of us can have a voice in the decisions that impact our lives.

"I have been in a lot of briefings w/govt officials & other experts ... over the last 9 days. It's as if we have learned absolutely nothing.

We have to make the right policy choice, pressure the Trump Admin to find an off-ramp & get us out of this war."

that the Trump administration is trying to shut down a leading AI company because it’s unwilling to develop autonomous murder systems is terrifying, and should be of grave concern to everyone in the world

Pete Buttigieg just put Georgia-14 on the map. When a former Cabinet Secretary says Shawn Harris has what it takes to flip a red district-you listen! Lower drug prices. A real farm bill. Medicare protected. Georgia, on Tuesday, March 10th show up for someone who cares about you!

Authoritarians will stop at nothing to feel safe. Since they have no concept of public welfare and consider everyone an asset to be used and discarded, they will easily enter into a military conflict without a long-term strategy, regardless of the casualties it causes.

Instead of spending $50 billion to bankroll Trump’s criminal war on Iran, we could:

-Extend ACA subsidies for one year
-Restore SNAP benefits for 2.4 million people
-And ensure Medicaid coverage for nearly 2 million people

It’s not about what we can afford. It’s about priorities.

It’s not just that the Administration isn’t answering questions about Iran.

They’re lying.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.

Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

FOX NEWS is reporting it. 92,000 jobs gone. Unemployment rising. An economy gutted by chaos, cruelty, and zero strategy.

Turns out scapegoating immigrants wasn’t an economic policy after all.

President Trump has chosen – yes, chosen – to fund his war instead of lowering the cost of your health care, groceries, and gas.

BREAKING: I read the new version of the β€œSave America Act” (S. 1383) so u don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Point 1 is new. It requires that all 50 states send their voter rolls to the DHS to run thru DHS’s faulty β€œSAVE” voter purge program. Points 6 & 7 are new too. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE 1/

They know Trump’s war is wildly unpopular.

So the script is obvious…

Hegseth shrugs off dead troops like it’s just β€œa few drones getting through,” and attacks the media for reporting about it. Then Leavitt denies he ever complained about it.

The disrespect for fallen soldiers is shameful.

This is how it’s done: coming together and thanking and supporting your opponent. At the end of the day, we must elect a Democrat in Texas to stop billionaires, Trump, and Republicans from stealing from hardworking Americansβ€”and take back Texas and our country!

Trump said that we could be at war with Iran for a month or longer.

An endless horror show of death and destruction.

How is it that we always have the money for bombs & wars of choice, but never enough to fund Medicare for All???

Virginia Lawmakers Should Pass Citizens UnitedΒ Trigger Law Challenging the Supreme Court’s mistaken Citizens UnitedΒ ruling will help spur legal change and curb the influence of big money in state politics.

Trigger laws enabled some states to ban abortion the second the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Now Virginia is considering one that would limit political spending if the Court ever overturns Citizen United. bit.ly/3OYOEOV

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.
