Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

The memo my staff obtained and made public helped expose the sham justification behind the Trump administration's cruel plan to deport hundreds of kids to Guatemala. I'll continue to working to hold this administration accountable at every turn.

For years, Donald Trump has wanted to weaponize the government against his political opponents.

And by pardoning January 6th offenders, he has shown he does not care about preventing political violence.

This is craven, cynical, and very dangerous.

Political violence is a crisis in this country — which is why Americans deserve leaders who want to actually solve it, not weaponize it against their political opponents.
Vance: "While our side of the aisle certainly has its crazies, it is a statistical fact that most of the lunatics in American politics today are proud members of the far-Left."

Yes, Mr. Trump. We should keep the government open.

- Stop health care costs from soaring up to 75%
- Save 15 million people from losing health care
- Rescind $1 trillion in tax breaks to the top 1%

Listen to the needs of the American people.

Don't shut down the government.

Our country is stronger because of the contributions of immigrants.

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month!

Sadly, we are not learning because we are now back to unknown dangerous territory and I fear a lot of Americans will be killed!
On @facethenation.bsky.social with Rep. Massie, I asked what have we achieved? The strikes put our troops at risk & create a generation of hate. Can this country learn? We keep voting for a president who says we’re not going to war & then they get pushed into war by the Beltway.

This is factually true, as mental illness soars in our prisons. It’s not just the prisoners that are mentally affect, but also the prison workers! America is failing.
Prison creates, worsens, & perpetuates symptoms of mental illness. For the incarcerated masses dealing with mental health issues, all we can really do is turn to one another for guidance, writes Derek R. Trumbo, Sr. in his ‘Never eat the candy.’

The Big Beautiful Betrayal lowers incomes for nearly 100 million working families, raises mortgage costs, and takes funding from rural hospitals — all while giving massive tax breaks to the wealthy. This isn’t the bill for you and we must reject it.

Absolutely disgraceful! Betrayer of the American people!
Secretary Kennedy should be deeply ashamed of his complicity in this administration’s abuse and terrorization of immigrant families.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s recent decision to hand over the personal information of millions of Medicaid enrollees to ICE is a disgraceful abuse of power and a direct assault on immigrant families.

GOP proposed health care cuts will shutter ERs, maternity wards, and mental health care across America—especially in rural areas. Today, I warned Republicans: these aren’t just numbers—they’re lives.

We must stop these cuts before it’s too late.

Republicans passed a package that guts $9.4 BILLION in critical funding.

They’re coming for global health, humanitarian aid, national security—& even PBS & NPR.

Let me be real clear:
What they’re cutting saves lives, keeps the world stable, and tells the truth.
