- Millions of federal employees aren’t getting paid
- 15 million people about to lose their health care
- 24 million Americans could see their insurance premiums DOUBLE
Now Speaker Johnson gives House Republicans another week off work. 4 straight weeks out of DC. Unbelievable.

The First Amendment does not request permission — it affirms a right. To silence speech is to trespass against the Republic itself.

If we’re serious about more efficient government and better everyday life in America - which we all should be - that means actually improving government, not cutting health care for poor people and slashing support for veterans.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

DOGE was never about savings. It was always about surveillance.
Over the weekend, we released new details—and now whistleblowers are coming forward too. What’s becoming clearer by the day: DOGE isn’t a government efficiency program. It’s a data weapon aimed at the American people.

For over 80 years, Voice of America delivered news to countries—many under authoritarian rule—where reliable information was scarce. Now, those broadcasts, once a vital tool for promoting democracy and transparency, are fading away.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?
They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.
That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.
The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence
National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety.
This won’t go well—we love our parks.

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Protect essential social programs, reject budget plan prioritizing wealthy
Text SIGN POYJYS to 50409 — The Republican budget plan advanced by the House proposes over $1 trillion in cuts to vital programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). These programs provide essential healthcare and nutritional assistance to millions of low-income Americans, including children, the elderly, and those with disabilities. Slashing funding for these critical safety nets to finance tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations is deeply concerning. It prioritizes profits over people and undermines the well-being of our most vulnerable communities. We must prioritize protecting and investing in social programs that promote public health, combat poverty, and uplift those in need, rather than catering to the interests of the privileged few.
