Trump and Republicans are letting insurance premiums spike for millions of Americans.

There are just SEVEN days of legislative session left in the year.
If Republicans cared and had any sense of urgency, they would work with Democrats to extend the ACA tax credits and save health care for millions of Americans.

He Spent Funds Meant for Native Hawaiians on Polo and Porsches. The Federal Government Failed to Stop Him.
A small business program allowed Christopher Dawson to win big contracts if he promised to uplift Native Hawaiians. Instead, federal prosecutors allege, he used the money to line his own pockets.

Remember when Trump said that his tariffs might mean fewer toys for American kids? Or when he freaked out after Amazon said they might show the added costs from his tariffs on their site?
Yesterday, I reminded his top trade official of how these tariffs are a Trump Tax on everything we buy.
