There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security. Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

While he chokes off cancer research and fires VA researchers, the President is using your taxpayer dollars to buy crypto and enrich his personal allies. This is the most corrupt administration in history and it's not even close.

The last time America increased tariffs like this, it was 1930 — and it triggered the Great Depression.

🚨EXTRAORDINARY FULL PAGE AD in today’s @nytimes by Cuban American businessman Mike Fernandez savaging the Trump Administration and calling for 5 @GOP senators @SenMcConnell @lisamurkowski @SenatorCollins @SenThomTillis @SenJohnCurtis to band together to stop him! Incredible! 👏🏼

In January 1941, President Franklin Roosevelt answered the "America First" of his day - and foresaw the "America First" of ours: "We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests."

Measles outbreaks are back. Grocery and gas prices are up. Bird flu is spreading. All our allies hate us. Air travel is getting unsafe. The stock market is tanking. The government is about to shut down. And he’s only been President for six weeks. This is just the beginning.

"Trump and Vance have revealed to Americans and to America’s allies their alignment with Russia, and their animosity toward Ukraine in general and its president in particular," writes @davidfrum. "The truth is ugly, but it’s necessary to face it." theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

There has never been anything like this. Trump and Vance look like children talking about accommodating Putin. Zelensky holds his ground and defends his nation… and the free world.

This is the most appalling thing I have watched in my life. Utterly despicable behavior by Trump & Vance. So ashamed the world has to view this betrayal of American values by our own elected leaders.

Vance: Have you said thank you once? Zelenskyy: You think if you speak very loudly— Trump: He’s not speaking loudly. You’ve done a lot of talking. You’re not winning this

I'm hearing from experts around the world about what the destruction of USAID is meaning: "a global health massacre," in the words of a doctor who has devoted her life to humanitarian work on the front lines. Millions of malnourished children left to starve. Pregnant women not getting micronutrients to prevent neural tube defects. Programs against schistosomiasis abandoned. HIV positive patients left without ARV's. Water no longer purified. Surveillance against Ebola and bird flu set back. TB patients unable to get medicine. I've long argued that USAID should be reformed, but this Trump/Musk demolition is cruel and incompetent and benefits China, while killing children just as wonderful as our own.

🚨 DOGE is taking a chainsaw to cancer research. 🚨 Kyle—a Veteran, father, and cancer thriver—got a second chance thanks to NIH-funded treatment. Now, DOGE cuts are putting his life and millions of others at risk. Share this. Call your reps. Show up. Lives depend on it.

Here is a great website, where you can put in your zip code and see what specific cuts in Social Security in your area Republicans are proposing and what that will mean for you specifically. democrats-budget.house.gov/house-republic…

This is a slap in the face for Arizonans and all who love to come here. Last year, nearly 5 million people visited Grand Canyon National Park. The Trump administration’s removal of essential workers undermines our economy and ability to showcase one of the greatest natural wonders of the world. axios.com/local/phoenix/…

.@JDVance, you lied to the world in Munich. If this administration believed in free speech as you claimed, its leaders wouldn’t be threatening members of Congress with criminal investigations for educating the public of their Constitutional rights. Look in the mirror.

@mehdirhasan Yes dummy. I think there’s a difference between not giving a reporter a seat in the WH press briefing room and jailing people for dissenting views. The latter is a threat to free speech, the former is not. Hope that helps!

Imagine if the media pointed out there was already a Government Accountability Office whose job it is to go after actual waste and fraud, not just things Elon doesn’t like, and found $70 Billion in savings last year and $2 Trillion in waste since 2003. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Governmen…

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
