INCOMPETENCE OF NUCLEAR PROPORTIONS

Trump officials fired nuclear staff not realizing they oversee the country’s weapons stockpile. Now, they are rushing to rescind their terminations.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Trump said he’d lower prices, but instead eliminated the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an agency delivering $21B back to Americans from illegal banking fees, loan sharks & more.

Now, Trump wants you to report if laid off employees are still working to protect you.

Elon Musk and his DOGE Musketeers must come before Congress to explain themselves.

I'm all for saving taxpayer money, but it makes no sense why the world's richest man needed to obtain Americans' most sensitive information and records at the Treasury Department.

We need answers. Now.

Since Trump declared his intent to pal with Putin, he seems set to engage in the greatest act of appeasement on Ukraine since Neville Chamberlain abandoned Czechoslovakia in 1938.

The GOP will be forever stained as the party that lost Ukraine.

House Republicans "wreckonciliation" bill would starve the Education Department and eliminate some assistance for higher education.

House Republicans are yielding to Trump's demands for trillions in new tax breaks for his billionaire buddies.

Instead of fulfilling false promises to lower prices for families, the GOP budget “wreckonciliation” is an economic plan that cuts support Americans rely on but not grocery or drug prices.
