SNAP benefits didn’t need to stop.
There are federal dollars to keep SNAP going, even in a shutdown. Trump is REFUSING to use it.
The courts have ruled that Trump needs to get November SNAP benefits out the door for Americans in need.

These are the words of a lunatic who does not belong in government, much less as our nation's top health official.
It is dangerous to allow him to oversee ALL federal health research and public health infrastructure. It is never too late to do the right thing. Fire RFK Jr.

It's typical that former vice presidents have Secret Service protection for 6 months after leaving office. In Harris' case, she had received an extension of her detail. Trump is ending the extension.

NEWS: Walgreens just got taken over by private equity.
Private equity has a record of running companies into the ground.
Walgreens could be the latest victim: closing more stores, service plummeting, workers losing their jobs, and eventually bankruptcy.

Harborview Medical Center in Seattle provides high-level trauma care for AK, ID, WY, & MT.
Republican health care cuts are putting a major strain on them and every hospital.
A rural hospital fund doesn't help Harborview or the people in Republican states who count on them.

Donald Trump still thinks his cognitive test was an IQ test, and suggests ‘low-IQ’ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez should take one.

Five years ago, I lost a friend and America lost a moral giant.
John Lewis was more than a civil rights icon. He was our North Star, showing us that courage, justice, and love demand action.
Let’s honor him not with silence, but with action.Stand up to injustice. Stir up good trouble.

I’ve been investigating Paramount’s deal with Trump. Here’s what we know:
- Trump sued CBS
- CBS called the lawsuit “meritless”
- Paramount (owner of CBS) still settled, handing $16 MILLION+ to Trump’s library
- Paramount has a billion-dollar deal that needs Trump’s approval

- CBS called the lawsuit “meritless”

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.
America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.
Watch and share his message.

Republican Senators voting for Trump's bill:
Please explain to Vivi why it's okay to make cuts to the program that helps pay for her wheelchair, her therapists, and her aide.
Just look her and millions of other kids in the eye and say that you think cutting their care is okay.

Kids like Vivian shouldn’t have to lobby senators to have health care. I’m in this fight all the way.

I visited a food bank in Seattle today to hear from people who rely on SNAP & Medicaid.
I’ll be sharing their stories everywhere I can—but let me just say it’s just WRONG that Republicans want to cut health care & nutrition to give tax breaks to billionaires who don’t need them.
Keep speaking out.
