Trump’s reckless and discriminatory travel ban doesn’t make us safer. All it will do is further isolate the United Statesfrom our allies and weaken our global leadership.

Trump’s latest travel ban is blatantly racist. But will it survive legal challenges because of SCOTUS precedent? youtu.be/yUohYbI3L7Q?...

Last year, Nike made $23 billion. Its founder is worth $35 billion. But Nike pays just dollars a day to the workers who make its products. Today I met Dinar, who sews 222 labels an hour onto Nike products. She is paid $202 a month. This is corporate greed at its worst.

Raising the $7.25 an hour minimum wage to a living wage is not a radical idea. Since 2020, voters in Florida, Nebraska, Missouri & Alaska approved a major increase in their minimum wage. What’s radical is that the federal minimum wage has not gone up since 2009.

The Supreme Court’s decision preventing Smith & Wesson from being held accountable for putting weapons of war onto the streets is why Congress needs to pass the Equal Access to Justice for Victims of Gun Violence Act. Americans impacted by the scourge of gun violence deserve better.

Folks, let's not go all rosy retrospection with Elon Musk. Just because he and the Orange Turd don't get along anymore doesn't mean he's invited to the table.

Trump and Musk are feuding. Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't know what was in the bill she voted for. Joni Ernst is walking through cemeteries and saying we’re all going to die. Would be funny if they weren’t kicking 16 million Americans off their health care.

Just a reminder even though he opposed the bill NOW, AFTER it passed, Elon Musk is not a good guy. He wants MORE cut out of what you need. This is a guy that’s a billionaire for one reason: the US Govt tax breaks and financing

This is the test of our democracy right now: how much will Republicans in Congress let President Trump get away with defying the law? The answer should be: this moment shouldn’t be about party. It should be about the country.

Trump slashes funding for FEMA and other natural disaster relief programs just in time for things like hurricane season. Trump wants all Americans to suffer, regardless of party affiliation. Why? Because he doesn’t care about you. youtu.be/Y8PQn3OdRj8?...

Maybe this is old fashion, but the goal of government is not to hasten the deaths of Americans. Republicans should reread the bible – Jesus did exactly the opposite of what they’re doing with their Big Ugly Bill.

Oligarchs are addicted to greed. In 1982, there were just 13 US billionaires worth $14 billion. Today, while 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, there are 903 US billionaires worth $6.8 trillion. Enough is enough. We need an economy that works for all, not just the top 1%.

If Musk & his pals are so concerned about increasing the national debt in Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, why don’t they cut the $664 billion in tax breaks for the 1%; the $420 billion in tax breaks for large profitable corporations; & the $150 billion in increased military spending?

When Mr. Musk, the wealthiest man alive & major campaign contributor, expresses strong distaste for Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, Republicans will listen & obey. That means more cuts to Medicaid, nutrition & education. The oligarchs want it ALL. We’re not going to let that happen.
