Today, millions of Americans will stand united against this administration’s lawlessness. We will not be intimidated into silence. We love this country. And when you love something—you fight for it. Do it peacefully and patriotically. Do it with heart. Do it with courage.

I spoke directly with folks in Leverett tonight. It was my 3rd town hall in 3 weeks. People are angry–about this administration’s disregard for the law, about healthcare premiums doubling, about Republicans refusing to reopen the government. But their message to me was clear:

It's insane that a Republican Member of the United States Senate who has done literally nothing but normalize Trump's lawlessness is now befuddled and confused by it.

Pres Trump takes an oath to uphold the constitution & the laws but he hasnt told Congress he was firing the Ex-Im Inspector General The law says POTUS has to specifically inform Congress abt IG firings and unless the courts say otherwise thats still the law

5️⃣Bottom line: Kids can’t learn if they’re hungry. My bill ensures that every child starts the day fed, focused, and ready to succeed. 🍎🥪 https://t.co/O7LFtKkwtf

3️⃣ Washington’s annual budget fight shouldn’t determine whether kids go hungry. My bill indexes federal funding to inflation, so kids stay fed year after year.

2️⃣Trump’s tariffs are pushing food & labor costs through the roof—but federal reimbursements for school meal programs aren’t keeping pace. My bill permanently boosts reimbursements by 45¢ per lunch & 28¢ per breakfast so kids don’t go hungry.

You’re about to get a letter saying your healthcare costs will double or even triple. Why? Because LAZY MIKE JOHNSON doesn’t care about your bills. He sent Republicans home to sit on the couch! And not just lazy—creepy!! He wants to continue his Epstein Files pedophile coverup.

This is an outright lie. Republicans made the deepest cuts to SNAP in US history, and we are fighting to extend the ACA tax credits that more than a quarter of our family farmers and ranchers rely on for health care. Your party is in charge. Don’t blame Dems for your failures.

Because of the Democrat shutdown, there are not enough funds to provide SNAP for 40 million Americans come Nov 1. Democrats are putting free healthcare for illegal aliens and their political agenda ahead of food security for American families. Shameful.

The same people hanging swastikas & texting friends “I love Hitler” are clutching their pearls when people call them Nazis. Maybe I’m old fashioned, but in the America I grew up in, “loving Hitler” makes you a Nazi. https://t.co/7ZHnlJgKFw

During the Republican Shutdown, Trump is: —Bailing out Argentina with your money —Hawking his tacky ballroom to billionaire donors —Hosting a fancy fundraiser at Mar-A-Lago …all while your health insurance premiums explode & groceries are at an all-time high.

President Trump calls on Andrew Weissmann, Lisa Monaco, Adam Schiff to be “looked into” for political crime: I hope they will look at all of these people. And I am allowed to find out I'm allowed, you know, I’m in theory chief law enforcement officer.

Trump’s tariffs are driving up prices while his billionaire donors & foreign friends get richer. That’s not America First—it’s corruption with better branding.

We are in a Republican shutdown, and instead of working to open the government and ensure federal workers get paid, Trump is hosting a $1M per person fundraiser. He is working for the billionaires, not the American people.

Unearthed invitation shows Trump will host a lavish $1 million per person fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago this Friday. This will take place on the 17th day of his government shutdown.

Donald Trump once said that keeping the government open is the president’s responsibility. By his own measure, he’s failed. Lousy leadership & staggering incompetence!
