Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.

The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds.

It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

Melania Trump declined Jill Biden’s invitation for tea at the White House, and yet I haven’t seen a single Republican call her out for disrespecting “protocol.”

Nope. Wrong. Newsom is doing what all Democrats need to do in this new era where right-wing oligarchs, politicians and influencers hit you with a steady barrage of lies. This is part of the job now for elected officials. You know it works because of how much they whine about it.

Here’s what’s to know… not a single goddamn Republican voted for the Inflation Reduction Act, which will cap prescription drugs at $2K per year for seniors starting January 1st! It was NOT Trump! It was NOT the GOP! Only Joe Biden and the Democrats deserve credit for this life changing legislation!

Elon Musk says Democrats should take the blame for the new Republican bill failing, but Republicans control the House.

38 Republicans voted against the new bill. Republicans tanked their own bill.

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids.

Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine
