The accusations against the @splcenter.org are absurd.
This THIRD hearing on the topic was clearly part of a broader effort built on a pathetic, blind loyalty to Donald Trump.
Is this a surprise? No, it’s not.
Do we know who’s responsible? Yes, we do.
It’s sad that we know to expect this. Real Americans are literally paying the price for Trump’s policies – and folks just can’t make ends meet.
Yet again, Trump has pardoned a former Republican Congressman who was convicted by a jury of his peers of insider trading.
It’s the corrupt protecting the corrupt.
It just drives home why we need to act now to give people protections against unauthorized AI replicas of their name and likeness. Let’s start by passing my NO FAKES Act. (2/2)
This week, Republicans are going to make us vote on their awful reconciliation bill.
Here's what it does:
• Give $70B MORE to ICE and Border Patrol with no oversight
Here's what it doesn't do:
• Stop Trump's insurrectionist slush fund
• Literally anything to lower your costs
For as long as he’s been at the DOJ, Todd Blanche has proven that he’s more than happy to corrupt our justice system on behalf of one man - and cover up the crimes of many in the Epstein files.
It’s no surprise that Trump wants his “former” personal attorney as OUR attorney general.
Todd Blanche has already shown himself to be a disgrace to our nation’s justice system.
He has no right being our attorney general.
While families struggle to afford housing, health care, and groceries, Republicans just passed a bill to send $70B more to ICE and Border Patrol.
I voted no.
For decades, @demwomencaucus.bsky.social has participated in a wreath laying at Arlington National Cemetery to honor women veterans. The Trump admin called it a “diversity event” and canceled it this year.
Well, we held our own event today. We'll ALWAYS honor women who serve our country.
A political opponent recently posted a deepfake video of me on social media. It was generated using AI and fabricated my voice and image to put words in my mouth. While it represents a new - and dangerous - low, it was not unpredictable. (1/2)
