A new level of cruel? Trump is illegally withholding child care grants for parents in college— Forcing them into an impossible choice: drop out or take on more debt. I’m demanding an investigation. These funds that Congress already approved must be released immediately.

Your party's unyielding support for funding Israel's genocide of Palestine is how Trump was reelected. You do love that aipac cash though.

Midas Touch Podcast sent me. They recognized you as the only Senator forcing accountability by talking about this & taking a stand. Shining a light like a depressing game of flashlight tag in an attempt to force the press to engage. Don’t let them hide it. Don’t let them do this in the dark. 👍 ❤️

All of these demands from Democratic Senators and House members have not worked so far. I don't know what more y'all can do. Being angry and screaming and demanding is obviously not enough.

Trump decided to hang a portrait of Robert E Lee at West Point. Might as well hang one of Benedict Arnold, he was commander of West Point before he tried to give it to the British. Both were heroes before they betrayed their country, both were on the losing sides of the war. Trump is a traitor.

"And therefore, the Democrats must not help the GOP with votes on any spending bill without major concessions, including mechanisms to prevent illegal recissions. Unlike what we did in March." Right, Senator?

Let’s be really clear about the motive — this will overwhelmingly impact women in college. They want less educated women, they want women reproducing, at home and not in the workforce. Yes this will impact anyone who is a parent. But disproportionately this targets women.

And apparently the ignorance of the Democratic Party to not do a damn thing about calling him out on it to his face on camera

I suggested a contingent of Democrats walk down the mall and get in Trump's face daily to confront him about every abuse of power and every illegal move. They need to put the fear of God & constant accountability into him. And Vought & Miller. Alas, none of them listen to me. All I can do is try.

Trump is violating the constitution! The remedy is impeachment. Any congressman who does not do their sworn duty is also violating the constitution! Time to CLEAN HOUSE!!

So senator I suggest somebody gets a spine gets him in front of a camera and tells him to his face that he can’t do it. Nobody’s done that yet.
