This upsets me in ways I don't have words for.
Trump is sending Marines trained for war into American streets. Not to protect the public — but to serve his political agenda.

There's a lot happening right now, but this week, Republicans unveiled some new changes in their Big, Ugly, Betrayal of a bill and snuck in a provision that would allow them to SELL OFF OUR PUBLIC LANDS.
No way. Our public lands are NOT for sale.

Trump just quietly erased guidance that told hospitals they had to save pregnant women's lives.
That's right—they don't care how many women die or are forced into health crises to advance their anti-abortion agenda.
I won’t let this fly under the radar.

Billionaires and the largest corporations? They’re doing FINE. They don’t need a handout at the expense of struggling families.
But Republicans want to kick kids off their health care to shower the richest companies on earth with more tax cuts.
No way. We need to put this heist on full blast.

Musk and DOGE are unilaterally making drastic, arbitrary, and cruel decisions about YOUR taxpayer dollars with NO transparency.
That has got to end. Elon Musk must come before Congress for a hearing and be held accountable to the American people.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.
100% of his salary is paid by WA state.
Elon fired him. Share his story.

I'm hearing that right now, Trump is firing researchers at VA.
Trump & Elon need to reverse course on this IMMEDIATELY—this across-the-board firing threatens to decimate so much of the lifesaving research our veterans depend on: suicide prevention, burn pit exposure, and more.

My Senator
I've met with many cabinet nominees across many admins, and my meeting with RFK Jr. was by far the most troubling.
He rattled off debunked conspiracy theories & lied to my face—denying his own statements he'd made on record. We cannot confirm an anti-vaxxer as Secretary of Health.

"He threw out so many nonsense, nonsensical questions and statements that it was head-spinning," Washington's senator said of her private meeting with Kennedy.

🚨Republicans must choose: stand with American Troops or betray them for Trump, Musk, and their billionaire cronies. Trump’s Gaza scheme is a reckless, corrupt disaster that puts Servicemembers’ lives on the line for profit.
