Members of the US Congress receive the best healthcare in the entire world, at the expense of the American taxpayer. Every US citizen should have the exact same healthcare, yet Republicans are trying to take what little healthcare we have away! Who agrees? It's time to take theirs! Pass it on!

DOGE is inflating its savings claims. DOGE counts fully paid contracts as “savings.” Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service says it has saved $55 billion by cutting jobs, canceling contracts, and renegotiating leases. But a closer look suggests that number is misleading.

The heartbreak. Trump claims USAID is bankrupting America—it’s less than 1% of the budget. Meanwhile, the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, is gutting the largest food aid provider. He could end world hunger & still be the richest man alive. But he won’t. Not just greed. We’re watching evil at work.

This night, 34 years ago, we were preparing to cross the Saudi Arabia-Iraqi berm to help free Kuwait. Three years ago, Putin gave the order to violate the territory and sovereignty of our partners and friends in Ukraine. We must continue support.

We had friends & allies around the world based on alliances & relationships that were built over many decades. In one month, Trump has torched them all. Now our friends are Putin, Orban, the crypto scammer in Argentina, and the guy in El Salvador offering us mercenary prisons.

Pete Buttigieg said what we’re all thinking about Trump and Musk’s mayhem: “We too demand government work different and better than it has...burning it to the ground isn’t gonna do that for anyone.”

Rep Kevin Hern—scared to say anything against Trump. The obvious—if Zelenskyy were a dictator, Trump would love him like he loves Putin. Glad to see folks in Oklahoma calling him out. Even small town halls matter right now. Don’t let them off the hook. Keep calling, emailing, and confronting them.
