Trump is clearly ready to turn his illegal use of our military on other countries around the world.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are whatβs paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.
Raise your hand if you agree with Sen. Mark Kelly.ππΎππΎ
Impeachment isnβt an option, itβs a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent.
Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders wonβt do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...
Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you canβt lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?
Tonight was a very bad night.
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. Itβs about peopleβs lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
I refuse to support a funding bill that fails to address the Republican health care crisis.
And make health insurance affordable.
The American people clearly understand the stakes and the urgency. We must too.
I'm voting no.

Tiffany maybe? She has a law degree.
We can't settle for Republicansβ promise of later negotiations. Because every time this Administration says something, they go back on their word.
If Republicans need Democratic votes, they need to keep health care premiums from skyrocketing for the American people.
Donald Trump says he wants our military to use cities like Los Angeles and Portland as a "training ground." Absolutely not.
This un-American, illegal use of the military to terrorize in our communities must end now.
The press has been hammering me saying my appearance at ArabCon & call for a Palestinian state will "haunt my political future." I disagree. I believe our party's base has had it with our establishment. Who do you stand with?

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.
Hereβs an idea. The west has held about $300 billion in Russian assets. They should release 2 billion a day to Ukraine until Russia stops the war, or they disperse it all.
Then Russia will have to accept the war has an additional real cost per day
YES:
What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.
This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations β from television networks to newspapers β are capitulating to these threats.
Let's drop the naivitΓ© and accept that this war will end on the battlefield after Ukraine achieves the necessary military strength, not in a conference room after a round of talks and a carafe of wine.
πΊπΈπΊπ¦President Zelenskyy: We have proposed to the U.S. the purchase of the necessary number of Patriots systems.
We just extended our sanctions on Russia.
At the same time, we are finalising work on the 19th package β looking into additional curbs on Russian oil sales, shadow oil tankers, and banks.
Weβll keep choking off the cash for Putinβs war.
Ukrainian drones & sanctions are hitting #Moscow hard! πβ½ Fuel shortages in the heart of the regime are so bad that even pro-Kremlin papers canβt hide the long queues. The ruble dropped 7% in just 48 hours. Nowβs the time to defeat and demilitarize Russia. #SlavaUkraini #StandWithUkraine
Well said.
The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading.
It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.
I urge all Californians to vote to redistrict our maps in response.
NEWS: DNC Chair Ken Martin says TX State Rep. Nicole Collier was threatened with a FELONY charge for speaking on a press call with him, Cory Booker, and Gavin Newsom.
Trump wants to get rid of mail-in ballots so he can intimidate voters with federal troops stationed at the polling stations.
Hard to scare people who can just quietly mail in their votes.
Protect mail-in voting at all cost.
