Donald Trump is not a king, and Congress is not powerless.

Republicans have a choice to make.

They can continue to bow down to Donald Trump while he sabotages our economy, or they can stand up for the American people who elected them and vote to end this tariff game.

Insider trading much? Didn’t Martha Stewart go to prison for that? Just curious 🤔

Hey everyone

Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Mike Waltz, Marco Rubio and JD Vance endangered our service members by discussing war plans on an illegal Signal chat that was so insecure that a reporter from the Atlantic read the whole thing as it happened.

They all need to resign.

Do Republicans think their job is to serve Donald Trump—or the American people?

They can join us right now to pass the bipartisan resolution to end Trump’s reckless tariffs.

When Chris & Tom in MA checked their son's Social Security account last week, it said his disability benefits had ended.

They stayed up all night refreshing. Those benefits help pay for his care.

Trump & Musk's attack on Social Security is hurting people. We're fighting back.
Social Security wrongly told disabled people and some seniors their benefits ended, causing alarm
One family said they were dismayed when the Social Security site said their disabled adult son was no longer receiving benefits.

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"

What we've accomplished during our trade mission will extend far beyond this week.

We've laid the foundation for a new era of cooperation and shared prosperity for Illinois and Mexico — whether or not this federal administration decides to maintain their retreat into isolation.

ECONOMY IN SHAMBLES

U.S. job cuts hit 275,240 in March 2025, the highest since the pandemic peak in 2020, surpassing 2001 & 2008 recessions. Layoffs surge as federal cuts, led by DOGE, echo Covid-era losses.

It's the third highest monthly total on record.

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election.

70% of these donations went to Republicans.

Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

Just got my measles vaccine!

I got my first before 1968, so it turns out I needed a new one.

The measles outbreak is ongoing, be careful out there!

What's the real takeaway from Signalgate?

Can Trump's attacks on free speech and due process be stopped?

What does "Liberation Day" even mean?

Layoffs at NOAA, which warns us about severe weather

Attacking NIH, which finds cures for illnesses

Dismantling SSA, which administers Social Security payments

Terminating food inspectors and food safety committees at the USDA...

The "specifics" of DOGE put us all at risk.

Trump is conducting an authoritarian witch hunt against foreign students here legally, simply because they’ve engaged in free speech that his regime doesn’t like.

This is modern-day McCarthyism and an attack on the First Amendment. We must all stand up against it.
