I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

Judge McConnell tells the Trump admin that failing to fully fund November SNAP is a direct violation of his court order.

They now have until tomorrow to send funds to the states.

Imagine being so callous that you need a judge to order you, multiple times, to not starve millions of people?

Protecting people's health care is worth fighting for. Stopping our health care system from going into a death spiral is worth fighting for. People want Democrats to stand for something.

Brand new data:

Republicans blamed for the shutdown (+12) and for health care premiums going up (+28!!).

These are stunning numbers. Republicans aren't immune from the pressure this creates.

Time to press our advantage. Stand for what we believe in.

I stand in strong solidarity with workers at Caesars Horseshoe casino in Indianapolis who are on strike against corporate greed.

If Caesars can afford to pay its CEO $18 million and spend $50 million on stock buybacks, it can afford to treat all of its workers with respect.

Donald Trump is refusing to release the jobs data and now his government shutdown has delayed this week’s GDP & inflation numbers.

Trump needs release the data and end the shutdown.

Or the Fed could risk a misstep that hurts American families.

No, Mr. President.

You do not have the right to take away student debt forgiveness from teachers, nurses, veterans and other public servants if they do not show loyalty to your right-wing political agenda.

This is a democracy, not a dictatorship. Rescind this illegal rule.
Trump moves to block public servants from loan forgiveness based on ideology
Those who work with undocumented immigrants, provide gender transition care for minors or publicly protest could be blocked from student loan forgiveness under a new rule.

The money for climate action, nature protection and public goods is there, it’s just in the wrong hands.

We urge governments to #TaxTheSuperRich and support fair global tax rules to protect the future of people and the planet.

For the first time in modern history, Donald Trump is shutting down SNAP.

That means 42 MILLION Americans will miss out on food assistance funds starting November 1.

Donald Trump is choosing to let mommas and their babies go hungry.

Amazon's plan to replace 600,000 workers with AI and robots could save it $10 billion on top of billions more in tax breaks.

Today, I demanded answers from Jeff Bezos: Will you simply dump these workers out on the street, or will you treat them with the dignity they deserve?

"If Amazon succeeds on its massive automation plan, it will have a profound impact on blue-collar workers."
