Donald Trump is trying to block trillions of dollars in federal funds to Meals on Wheels, Medicaid, and other critical programs that keep us safe and healthy. If allowed to go into effect, this would wreak havoc across the country.

Why is a man who doesn't read, doesn't go to theater or ballet or any of the arts taking over the Kennedy Center? What a disgrace.

The opposition leader’s posthumous memoir is a chronicle of a death foretold.
