This is what Schumer and Jeffries should be talking about. Every single day. This should be top billing in their discussions about the continuing resolution. Do not give Stephen Miller and ice a single penny.

My mom is about to undergo a spinal surgery where the trial device was a game-changer regarding her quality of life. Without it, the pain medication would be hard for an elderly person to take. The states which are affected now are Arizona, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas, and Washington.😢

It’s stunning that when two firefighters and two congress members are executed by a Maga and not an immigrant, or drag queen, or person of colour, how abruptly it’s dropped by the media.

American life expectancy in 1960 was almost ten years shorter than it is today. And the leading causes of death were chronic diseases. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. frequently tells a different story.
RFK Jr. says Americans were healthier when his uncle was president. Is he right?

This isn’t a good idea even if the plane was being donated to the U.S. government. But Trump GETS TO KEEP THE PLANE??? It’s simply a cash payment to Trump in exchange for favors. Just wildly illegal.
