I tuned in to the @60minutes Trump interview with low expectations, and I haven’t bern surprised. Norah let Trump lie and lie with barely any pushback or provision of corrective facts. Where is the Aussie guy from @axios when we need him?

Millions of Americans are already learning that their health insurance costs for 2026 are going way up.
I want to hear from you so we can make this impossible for the GOP to ignore the consequences of their policies.
If your premiums are going up, reply below and please share your story.

Trump is executing people on the high seas by deeming them "enemy combatants" without any proof.
He's also called his political opponents — immigrants, Democrats, protesters — the "enemy within."
Put it together: How close is Trump to ordering attacks on them, too?

Democratic party messaging should be simple.
The Current Occupant of the White House will do anything, including destroy America, to divert attention from the EPSTEIN files & to avoid releasing them.
He is threatening to close the Government & mass layoffs to distract you, while punishing you.

Would be great to see today statements denouncing the invasion of Portland by:
- All Dem govs
- All Dems AGs
- Senate and House Dems
We have to denounce, attack, challenge immediately and defend the American people from this dangerous man.

Dems need to denounce and fight this Portland insanity very, very hard. Our unacceptable hesitancy when Trump invaded DC encouraged further escalation. We should be demanding Congress return to deal with this "emergency" - briefings, hearings, debate. We have to fight.

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.
Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results.
So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.
