Imagine how massive the tax breaks for billionaires must be when cutting $700B from Medicaid, $500B from Medicare, and $300B in food assistance STILL leaves a $4T deficit.

Trump and his allies are standing on Pennsylvania Ave about to shoot the #NationalParkService. Will we stand by and watch this, too? My op-ed in today's #Asheville Citizen-Times. Wake up #NorthCarolina congressional delegation! #BlueRidgeParkway @altnps.bsky.social

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

The VA has abruptly ended the only low-interest, affordable loan modification option for thousands of vets who are behind on their mortgages. If you're a vet at risk of foreclosure, we want to hear your story.
