I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.
Elon Musk spent millions in a failed scheme to buy a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat. Voters decisively rejected Donald Trump, Musk and the rapidly deteriorating Republican brand. Back up off the American people.
Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Susan Crawford in Waukesha this morning: “I need to talk for a few minutes about my opponent…Elon Musk” “He has spent over $25 million trying to ensure that I don't end up on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. He is trying to buy votes in Wisconsin”

U.S. Representative Jamie Raskin is encouraging all U.S. citizens to join him this week in filing formal demands for access to their personal data obtained by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and Elon Musk.
Call to action: National March on Washington, DC starting at noon at the national mall on March 14. "Claim your power. Stop the coup." #3E #USprotest #MAR14
Republicans must be held publicly accountable for their allegiance to Musk over their own constituents. Every Republican owes their constituents answers for why they’re willing to risk a government shutdown to enable Trump and Musk’s power grab. #maryland #indivisible #resist
It would be a real shame if y'all shared this online, printed out a few and hung up all around town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. 😉

Democrats don't need to take an anti-trans stance to win votes. We see that they lack the moral clarity to do what's right and that's why they lose.
Rep. Zooey Zephyr - My Wife - just gave an incredible speech against a drag ban in Montana. It was so strong that a Republican rose to speak passionately against the bill, chastising the sponsor. The drag ban dies in Montana, flips 10+ Republican votes! This is the power of representation.
