Letting 42 million Americans go without food this weekend—half of whom are children—is WRONG and a CHOICE.
The funds are there, but the White House is trying to leverage hungry kids for a political agenda. Mr. President, American lives are not a political game, and we are not here to play.

Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia detained by ICE during Baltimore check-in
The detention, which was expected, happened after Abrego Garcia walked into the Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Baltimore for a check-in after being released from custody on Friday.

Reminder that in 2021, Senate Republicans filibustered a bill that would have banned partisan gerrymandering of congressional districts.

BBB both grows the deficit and cuts food for poor kids
Jong-Fast: This would be the largest cut to food assistance in US history—and it will result in hungry kids.
It’s also important to mention that this bill grows the deficit. I don’t know how it manages to do the two things you absolutely don’t want—starve children and grow the deficit—but it does.

So the Republican Congress can pass a bill renaming the Gulf of Mexico, but can't seem to find the time to stop Trump's erosion of checks and balances or tackle rising housing and grocery costs?
Their priorities couldn’t be more clear.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much?
They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs.
Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher.
Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.”
It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

AOC: They want to talk about why America is great or making America great. Our civil liberties and our civil protections are part of what makes America great. When you want to shred up our constitution and eliminate due process, it is attacking what it is to be an American.

Ukraine is beating Russia—sinking their fleet without a navy, killing 800,000+ invaders, and holding the line for 3 years.

House Republicans voted to overturn the CFPB's cap on excessive overdraft fees — which was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually.
The House also struck down CFPB oversight over payment apps run by Big Tech companies.
