Here we are in another Republican government shutdown and my Rep is home doing photo ops instead of in D.C. trying to help working Americans. I didn't think I'd have to run to the trumpets again but I am. I'm running for Congress because I'm not done yet and neither are we. (1/2)

.@StephenM yelling on @jaketapper about how sovereign countries don’t get sovereignty if the U.S. wants their resources is genuinely unhinged. Belligerent. And a disturbing window into how this administration thinks about the world.

Conservatives sued, and the Supreme Court ruled in their favor, that private businesses can refuse service based on First Amendment rights and freedom of religion. Maybe harassing and attacking Black and brown communities goes against Hilton Hotel’s religious beliefs?

Trump is trying to silence his political opponents or anyone who dares to hold him accountable. In moments like this, fear is contagious—but so is courage. @SenMarkKelly is a patriot. He has honorably served our country. He's never backed down from a fight, and I won't either.
