WARREN HANDS DEMS MIDTERM WEAPON

Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Senate floor — Mar. 12, 2026

In January, Trump called Dem Sen. Elizabeth Warren after she’d just finished excoriating him in a speech at the National Press Club. She used the opportunity to pitch him on housing. He bit.

On Thursday of last week, the Senate passed the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act 89-10. Warren turned his phone call into a 303-page bill that bans investors from hoarding single-family homes, incentivizes new construction, and converts abandoned buildings into housing. Trump backed it publicly, but his party in the House is now calling it communist.

Warren responded with a warning: “House Republicans should immediately take up this bill and pass it. If they do not, they will have to explain to families across the country in November why they refused to lower the cost of housing.”

Trump thought he was calling to manage Warren. Instead she secured the largest housing bill in thirty years and handed the GOP an impossible choice—pass it, or go on record opposing lower housing costs.

WASHINGTON STATE MAKES RICH PEOPLE PAY

WA House Speaker Jinkins announcing passage of Millionaires Tax — Mar. 11, 2026

While House Republicans drag their feet on affordability, Democrats in the Washington state legislature passed a 9.9% tax on income above $1 million.

Gov. Bob Ferguson, who plans to sign it, said: “The inequities of our state’s tax structure have been exacerbated by [Trump’s] massive tax cuts for the wealthy—an unprecedented upward transfer of wealth that makes the rich even wealthier while hardworking people are overburdened.”

The millionaires tax will generate an estimated $3.7 billion a year for schools, health care, and direct relief for working families. It will affect less than one percent of residents.

FEDERAL JUDGE BLOCKS REGIME

Trump with Fed Chair Jerome Powell — July 24, 2025

While Washington state makes the wealthy pay more, a federal judge delivered another big loss for the regime.

As part of Trump’s ongoing retaliation campaign, US Attorney for DC Jeanine Pirro’s office issued subpoenas against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell—under the guise of a renovation investigation. On Friday of last week, Judge James Boasberg stepped in and blocked those subpoenas.

Boasberg stated: “There is abundant evidence that the subpoenas’ dominant, if not sole, purpose is to harass and pressure Powell either to yield to the President or to resign and make way for a Fed Chair who will. The Government has offered no evidence whatsoever that Powell committed any crime other than displeasing the President.”

That’s a federal judge in a signed opinion declaring that Trump used the DOJ to threaten a non-partisan federal official into submission. Not an allegation or an op-ed—it’s a court finding, permanently on the record.

Even GOP Sen. Thom Tillis—who has vowed to stall any Trump Fed Board nominees until the probe into Powell is dropped—called it “nothing more than a failed attack on Fed independence.”

SHAPIRO SHUTS DOWN ICE PRISONS

PA Gov. Josh Shapiro — Jan 27, 2026

The Trump regime quietly bought two Pennsylvania warehouses—with no permits, no community notice, no environmental review—and announced plans to convert them into detention facilities holding up to 9,000 people.

PA Gov. Josh Shapiro responded with the power of the pen, issuing five administrative orders through the state Dept. of Environmental Protection. The orders block water and sewage service to the warehouses, and prohibit anyone from occupying them until DHS shows compliance with all federal and state environmental regulations.

ICE’s plans would require up to 900,000 gallons of water per day at Tremont alone—90% of all available stored water in the entire local system. The infrastructure doesn’t exist. The permits don’t exist. DHS can’t open these facilities.

“We know, for example,” Shapiro said, “in Tremont, if this is built they will literally run out of water within 24 hours. That means they literally won’t be able to turn on the water in their kitchen and fill up a pot of water. They won’t be able to flush the toilet.”

The regime bought two warehouses. Shapiro shut them down with a pen.

The Dworkin Report exists not only to document these wins, but to lead the resistance—as we have for a decade now.

I have two questions for you today.

Should the wealthy pay more in taxes?

Do you think House Republicans will pass the housing bill before the midterms?

🚨TWO URGENT ACTIONS TODAY

🚨 Trump's UNHINGED DHS pick—Markwayne Mullin—hiss confirmation hearing tentatively set for this week. Tell your Senators BLOCK him! https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-senators-oppose-markwayne-mullin-for-dhs-secretary/

🚨 Tell your Reps to impeach Pam Bondi: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-congress-impeach-attorney-general-pam-bondi/


A FEW OF MANY INFORMED COMMENTS: 

AND to impeach Trump alongside of Bondi & by all means block MarkeyWayney - ICE Terrorists will only be further empowered by that man when we need them deeply curtailed

The CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS of IMPEACHMENT require approval by BOTH HOUSES of CONGRESS. Since REPUBLICANS currently control BOTH HOUSES, how do you think this is feasible, beyond a WASTE OF TIME?

Should DAFFY DON be IMPEACHED, do you want JUST DANCE BRAIN DEAD VANCE in office?


Good for Elizabeth Warren and her search for shame in the GOP. She said they don’t even make eye contact

Warren never stops working for people. She’s not lining her pockets and getting early tips for the stock market. It’s called ethics, a standard that Trump never respects or follows.

Trump is a sick puppy. He respects no one and is woefully uneducated with pride in his

abject stupidity. When Dems get back their power

, I hope that working on the current sad state of our educational system will be one of their first priorities.

The antidote we needed today. This is momentum—we're not just fighting, we're winning.

Grateful for the daily proof. Keep punching through the noise, everyone!


Ooo! I like that, ‘cause it really feels like what we’re doing is punching through noise! May I borrow that, Sam?


Scott, the wealthy should definitely pay more in taxes than those with fewer means. It seems those evangelicals who support Trump have forgotten that biblical passage “To whom much is given, much is expected”. Scott, as a woman, I strongly support Senator Warren. She is a strong, smart woman who drives men, especially MAGAs crazy. You go, Liz!


OK y’all this post is straight FIRE!🔥

We are winning on EVERY FRONT!!! Who else is ready to push even harder? Drop a ♥️ if you’re with me! Let’s goooooo


Elizabeth Warren is a marvel. Good for her for turning a conversation with Trump into a fair housing bill! Sadly, Republicans are calling the bill “ communist “, as they name everything they don’t like. They will not pass it, but after November’s election…..Please vote!!!

I love that Josh Shapiro is blocking sites in Pennsylvania for ICE’s housing of its prisoners- most of whom are here working and paying taxes and raising children. They contribute to our nation, while ICE does not.


She is my senator and the person Mitch McConnell was complaining about with the now iconic phrase "Nevertheless, she persists".


In a peek at a headline I could not see fully, revealed that T’s allies intend to take over the senate. We can vote, and I hope that will be enough to make a fine majority in the senate.


MAGA GOP MAGGOTS see the POLLS, know they'll be DEFEATED and are crawling into their dark holes to withdraw! They only had 'power' and 'privilege' to DESTROY DEMOCRACY when protected by the BULLY. 

Remember that the SPINELESS GOP MAGGOTS lacked the TESTICLES to hold TOWN MEETINGS and speak to their constituents. 

It defines MAGA GOP LOSERS when they can't even speak to constituents and HIDE!


Warren has held a top spot on my hero list for ages now. She keeps moving even higher. I adore her - she exemplifies public service and love of America!


Its a bipartisan bill in Senate, by a wide margin, but the Republican mice in the House will take orders from the lead hypocrite, Mikie!


Judge James Boasberg is a new hero on my growing list! Trump MUST not control the Federal Reserve and Powell is another hero for being steadfast and strong against trump’s absoLUTEly illegal pressure!!


I still say not enough pressure is being applied to Miller. Why can't we ruin that creature? He needs to be run out of the country or locked away.

I'm hoping for Nuremberg-type trials at the end of all this. And it's been reported that his family's disowned him.


There is no statute of limitations for their WAR CRIMES and violations of INTERNATIONAL LAWS. 

NUREMBERG TRIALS defined INTERNATIONAL LAW! 

"JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS" is not an excuse to BOMB BOATS in the CARIBBEAN, nor an UNARMED IRANEAN FRIGATE and then ignore drowning sailors.

NAZIS were SOUGHT and executed years after the crimes.   


He needs to be tarred and feathered! What a terrible man!


He's a total POS.

Little NAZI Stephen Miller authored and implemented the CHILD SEPERATION HORROR - NO RECORDS KEPT! 

FAMILIES without assets search for their CHILDREN...where are they?

Under President Biden, attempts were made to re-unite FAMILIES....

What did the LITTLE NAZI do with those CHILDREN? 

FAMILIES CAN'T FIND THEIR CHILDREN! 

This defines the MORAL DEPRAVITY of those surrounding the ORANGE TURD!  


YES, ABSOLUTELY, the wealthy should pay their fair share of taxes. We pay on what we earn and so should they. Big wealthy corporations could offset their tax burden by paying their employees a fair salary and win big with loyalty and gratitude which would go a long way!! The housing bill is a toss up ..... republicans don't want people to be homeowners because it boosts their confidence. They can't win an election with educated confident voters.

We have a millionaires tax in Massachusetts, helps. Why do rich people who are the biggest beneficiaries of what taxes pay for (roads, law and order, etc,) hate to support the society that provides the buyers for what they sell? And I include shareholders in that group. Born on home plate (David Ellison, I am looking at you!) and think they hit a home run!

Proud to be from Massachusetts! Love Elizabeth Warren! Great news for Monday rainy in Boston🤗🌈

Of course the wealthy and profiteering corporations should pay more taxes. A lot more taxes.

If the Rs don't help get that housing bill passed, they truly are idiots, and will get what they deserve in the midterms.


We have more good news that is undoubtedly sending trump in to quite a frenzy: Per The Guardian this morning: "European countries have resisted Donald Trump’s demand for help to clear the Strait of Hormuz, seemingly reluctant to get dragged into the escalating US-Israeli war on Iran."

The Washington State tax on billionaires is fabulous. We have a billionaire governor here. Wonder if JB Pritzker would sign such legislation if it came before him.


Trump has cost our country its' allies - he insulted them all & severed ties with them on every level, denigrated NATO & cost us our hard-won position as leader of the free world - why would they come to our militaristic aid now?! They owe us nothing - we left the herd


Soon trump may be living in a bunker, like Netanyahu.


we can only hope - it would be a fitting end for him


Yes as long as he does in the bunker like hitler did 🔫


Again Senator Warren and judges, plus our rule of law holds the line for us all! We thank you!


Meanwhile on the Mideastern front trump calling for China to help open the Strait of Hormuz, is like the weak-handed old man in the kitchen with a jar of pickles.


I understood that China and Russia are being helpful to Iran. If that is so, why does he consider them friends?


TRUMP is a RUSSIAN ASSET and has always been. 

Read CRAIG UNGER's book, should be available at your local public library. 

There was a recent article about the RUSSIAN MAFIA operating in the U.S. 

RUDY GHOULIANI made his 'reputation' prosecuting organized crime, NEVER TOUCHED THE RUSSIAN MAFIA. 

THEY MADE TRUMP RICH & BAILED HIM OUT OF BANKRUPTCY.

I believe his goal is to own and rule the world, doing whatever he wants. He feels the need for admiration and approval from strong men, and he admires dictators, hoping to be one. It seems that he might consider letting them take over much of the world so that he can eventually take over all of it. I hope I am wrong.

Since Russia and China are helping Iran in some ways, I wonder what he is thinking now. Having insulted many countries and destroyed allied relationships, he has put this country in an unwanted, isolated, and precarious position.

The benefit must be that he cannot and shall not have the countries he insulted join into a world war.

How will we ever be able to make amends and go forward? I hope our election will help.



JEANINE PIRRO: FOX PROPAGANDA BOOB! 

BRAIN DEAD BOOB bringing MINDLESS CASES TO COURT that even GRAND JURIES refuse to indict! 

Wasting COURT TIME with her FOX NEWS INCOMPETENCE! 

The DOJ is destroying any credibility they ever had with JUDICIAL LUNACY!

Interesting story about SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN'S election... 

MASS DEMS promoted a candidate to fill SENATOR KENNEDY's unexpired term who refused to CAMPAIGN. 

SCOOTER BROWN, sexy centerfold, a lack luster state rep, promoted his empty rhetoric and PICK UP TRUCK campaign that REPUBLICAN VOTERS EMBRACED. 

There was a MAN who stood at a highway entrance ramp EVERY SINGLE DAY promoting ELIZABETH WARREN - he was inaccessible having walked a long distance to stand at the highway ramp, but GOTTA HAND IT TO HIM! 

ELIZABETH WARREN was elected based on her platform overwhelming RIGHT WING attacks. 

After SENATOR WARREN was elected, LOCAL REPUBLICANS that I encountered were in MOURNING! 

I would ask "Did you know SCOTT BROWN voted against XXX?" 

or "Did you know SCOTT BROWN voted for YYY?" 

The invariable response was "NO1" because REPUBLICAN VOTERS refuse to INFORM THEMSELVES. 

SCOOTER BROWN went on to become a CANDIDATE in NEW HAMPSHIRE as a KOCH FUNDED SOCK PUPPET. 

Jeanne Shaheen handily defeated the KOCH SOCK PUPPET! 

THIS IS THE FIRST CANDIDATE WHO LOST ELECTION TO 2 WOMEN! 

This highlights that REPUBLICAN VOTERS prefer IGNORANCE to FACTS, as well as the success of INFORMED WOMEN and INFORMED VOTERS! 

SCOOTER BROWN is again running for something, speaking out at REPUBLICAN MEETINGS where NO ONE CHALLENGES the PROPAGANDA he shovels. 

"R" voters prefer MINDLESS RHETORIC over FACTS or SUBSTANCE.
