Imagine taking a voice vote with everyone's mics muted and no option to unmute.
That's what Trump did in his attempt to illegally slap his name on yet another public building.

Why don’t you put your (dark) money where your mouth is, @SenTedCruz?
Support my DISCLOSE Act.

A lawyer like Emil Bove shouldn’t be able to dodge congressional oversight by claiming certain privileges. And yet…

Senate Republicans are considering a dangerous plan to overrule the Parliamentarian & gut California’s clean air waivers.
@SenWhitehouse, @SenAlexPadilla, & @SenAdamSchiff are on the Senate floor warning of the consequences if Republicans go nuclear. teapawt.org/i/broadcasts/1yoKMoelE…

Some Republicans want to overrule the Parliamentarians & gut California’s Clean Air Act waivers.
They’re trying to claim this is a narrow exception, but make no mistake, they plan to go nuclear. Put bluntly: there is no cabining a decision to overrule the Parliamentarians.
ALT Whitehouse, Schumer, & Padilla warn Republicans against revoking California's Clean Air Act waivers — "would be a procedural nuclear option."

I joined @SenBooker during his historic speech to ask a few questions. First, at hour 17, how are you holding up?
Bill Dauster retweeted
Yes. We have a major constitutional crisis.
Americans did not fight and die to protect democracy so that the richest man in the world could single-handedly dismantle agencies that protect workers, consumers & children.
Together, we can and will defeat Trump’s authoritarianism.

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.
Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.
We must stop him.

Democrats and Republicans spent months negotiating a bipartisan agreement to fund our government.
The richest man on Earth, President Elon Musk, doesn’t like it.
Will Republicans kiss the ring?
Billionaires must not be allowed to run our government.

LIVE: No company should get away with charging Americans up to 15x more than other countries for a lifesaving drug. The HELP Committee is holding a hearing NOW on the need to end Novo Nordisk’s corporate greed. teapawt.org/i/broadcasts/1nAKEpqED…

Terrific explainer from @zainrizvi of @HELPCmteDems on how @novonordisk is price gouging our patients on #Ozempic & #Wegovy ahead of tomorrow's hearing with the CEO & what @SenSanders is doing to enable affordable access. Grateful for their hard work on this issue. @drsforamerica

It is absurd that a billionaire in America today pays the same amount of Social Security taxes as someone making $168,000 a year.
It is time to scrap the cap, expand benefits, and fully fund Social Security.

Incredibly, during Prime Day week in 2019, nearly 45% of Amazon's warehouse workers were injured. Amazon is a $2 trillion corporation owned by Jeff Bezos worth $215 billion. Corporate greed at Amazon is off the charts. It must be held accountable.

July 4th, 1776: With enormous courage, patriots broke away from the monarchy & established the longest running democracy in modern history.
November 5th, 2024: After 248 years, will we lose that democracy and descend into authoritarianism?
That’s what this election is about.
