Hi Twitter. I’m the president of @Public_Citizen. I’ve been fighting corporate power my entire career. Please follow me so my social media team doesn’t get mad at me.

In 6 days, the US has spent $11.3 billion on an unconstitutional and disastrous war. That's enough to restore food benefits to the 4 million people losing them due to the tax and budget reconciliation bill

No official is pro crime. Uh, well, actually not true. Trump is the most pro crime president in history. He and his DOJ are shutting down prosecutions of corporations and the connected. At record levels, as Trump likes to say. citizen.org/article/cancel…

Shameful lies. No evidence whatsoever that non-citizens pose a greater risk as commercial drivers license. We’re suing to block Trump policy to illegally deprive immigrants of commercial drivers licenses. citizen.org/litigation/riv…

Is Trump calling for Medicare for All? Sorry, no, just for more reliance on “the market!”

The Trump-Bondi Justice Dept is probably the weakest on law and order in US history. They are racing to end enforcement against corporate criminals and wrongdoers who inflict far more harm in $ and lives than street criminals. Details here: citizen.org/article/corpor…

Trump couldn't figure out how to call the National Guard in Washington, DC during an insurrection. But he has no difficulty contacting them over an imaginary street crime crisis.

Trump suspension of tariff talks with Canada makes clear: Trump is far more concerned with taking care of Big Tech's super profits than he is with taking care of workers or addressing trade imbalances.

Trump & Musk are taking money from children and stuffing it in billionaires' pockets. That's what it means to slash the Dept of Ed while pushing for massive tax cuts for the super rich and corporations. "Shameful bullying" does not adequately describe the heinousness here.

Trump has put chemical industry reps in charge of chemical regulation at the EPA. Not exactly the pathway to end chemical exposures for kids, or anyone else.

Trump is actually engaging in widespread censorship, stripping science information that contains words like “gender” and “diverse,” no matter the context.
