Trump accepted a $400M luxury jet from Qatar.
But for Trump to use the plane, it has to be secure.
What will it cost to modify and take the plane apart? At least $1 BILLION from taxpayers.
Trump’s hiding that by using funds from one of our nuclear programs.
I’m pushing back.

WOW. An independent VA audit proves how bad the Trump Admin is treating veterans: Every VA medical center has a SEVERE staffing shortage—up 50% from FY24.
This is why we started the House Dems Veterans Caucus. We must fight back against Trump's quiet gutting of veterans' care.

US BUDGET DEFICIT SOARS
The deficit jumped 19% to $291B in July. This is despite $21B collected from Americans due to higher import taxes, which led to higher costs on goods like furniture, footwear, and auto parts.
The deficit for 2025 is already $1.63 trillion, up 7% from the last year.

We must insist the Supreme Court protect voting rights and democracy. In 2015-17, I litigated and won 4 redistricting cases in the Supreme Court. In the last few years my firm has litigated two others in the Court and won both.

While children are starving, the Trump Admin is literally setting food on fire — destroying 500
tons of US taxpayer-funded food that could feed 1.5 million starving children for a week.
Destroying the food alone will cost $130K. This is heartless cruelty, not efficiency.

Be joyful and authentic. Even if your ideas aren't considered "mainstream" by elites. The elites have little idea what's actually mainstream.
