I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Doctors call it the Physiology of Poverty:

The stress of trying to survive every day breaks the mind and the body.

That's why working class people in America live SEVEN years shorter than the very wealthy.

Democratic leaders:

I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working.

Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

Trump’s trade war has officially begun—and U.S. drivers are about to pay the price.

25% tariffs (aka taxes) on all steel & aluminum imports coming into the U.S. are going to SPIKE the cost of cars and car parts—not just for American manufacturers, but for buyers too.

Yet another plane crash on Sean Duffy’s watch— and the *5th* since Trump “ended DEI madness and restored excellent and safety within the FAA.”

If you’re wondering if you’re in a constitutional crisis and that the republic could collapse at any moment, you are.

We are in the midst of an administrative coup the like of which we have never seen - or even imagined - in our lifetimes.

Every day brings new abuses, new scandals, which can’t just be undone or fixed.

We are in a very dark place as a country and as a constitutional republic right now.

No one elected Elon Musk.

As Donald Trump allows Musk to access people’s personal information and shut down government funding, Republicans in Washington will also own the consequences.

We must do everything in our power to push back and protect people from harm.

HOLD UP.

Did Trump just say he will put tariffs on medications?

Americans already pay more for prescription medications than anywhere in the world - and he wants us to pay EVEN MORE?

Americans want cheaper drug prices. Trump is giving us higher taxes instead.
Trump says he's also going to put tariffs on pharmaceuticals
