Top Democrat walks back “genocide” comment

This is pathetic, but it’s not surprising. John, just when we thought the Democratic establishment finally found the spine to call a genocide a genocide... they backtracked. First, Rep. Katherine Clark — Democrats’ second-in-command in House leadership — admitted that Israel is committing …

re: Trump’s DC takeover

The Democratic establishment is not doing enough to stop this. John, Donald Trump and his far-right administration have deployed the National Guard and taken control over Washington, DC’s metropolitan police, all in the name of cracking down on violent crime, which is at a 30-year low for…

Greg Abbott just crossed a line

John, Greg Abbott just crossed a line. For the first time in the history of Texas, our Governor is threatening to make us a one-party state. After Democratic legislators went around the country to rally and organize voters against Abbott and Trump's extreme redistricting scheme, Abbott i…

My latest op-ed

Did you see this yet? Hey John, I just published a new op-ed in The Guardian. Here’s the bottom line: The Democratic Party cannot win back the White House in 2028 without transforming the Party first in 2026 with working class primary challenges to the corporate incumbents who overrun th…

John Cornyn is coming after me on Twitter — here’s my response.

Republican Senator John Cornyn is coming after me on Twitter, John. Last week, my colleagues and I on the House Oversight Committee sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel. We’re asking questions and calling out how, at Cornyn’s request, the FBI is being u…

My opponent just violated the law

John — you've got to be kidding me… My opponent, Shri Thanedar, just broke the law by failing to disclose a stock trade. We don't need Democrats like this in Congress – chip in a split contribution to help me defeat him >> The STOCK Act, passed in 2012, is meant to prevent members…

ICE agents are getting their student loan debt forgiven

The Trump administration is trying to entice new ICE recruits with benefits like student loan forgiveness. John, Donald Trump is offering student loan forgiveness to new members of ICE — his racist, fascist American Gestapo — while making it harder for people he deems enemies to escape cr…

The far right wants me to be removed from my committees, stripped of my citizenship, and deported

Right-wing forces are attacking me after weaponizing a misinterpretation of my comments. Hi John, it’s Rep. Delia Ramirez. Last week, an acknowledgement I made of my Guatemalan roots — and the pride I feel as a Guatemalan American — was twisted into a false narrative. Right-wing forces, i…

MAGA meddling in blue districts

MAGA Republicans won’t stop until we’re out of office. Hi John, Alexandria, Ayanna, Ilhan, and Rashida have been fighting for working families — and calling out the Trump administration’s BS — since day one. That doesn’t sit well with Republicans, and now it’s clear that they’re trying to …

Tell House Democrats: Reject the AIPAC trip to Israel!

Our community is being targeted

John, The proposed Republican gerrymandered Texas congressional map is out — and it's exactly what we feared. Donald Trump and Greg Abbott are targeting my community. If this map goes through, my district, TX-35, would be merged with TX-37 into one combined seat. I’ll be clear: the mergi…

John, Since October 2023, the Israeli government has severely restricted the amount of food, water, medical supplies, and other aid allowed to enter Gaza. As a result, the people of Gaza are starving — they have been for months on end, and it’s getting so bad that the mainstream media an…

ICE arrest quotas TRIPLED

It has always been a racist, xenophobic attempt to persecute and demonize all immigrants. John, To carry out their mass deportation agenda, the Trump administration told ICE to TRIPLE their arrests, increasing their daily quota from 1,000 to 3,000 in late May. As a result, ICE is now targ…
