Donald Trump called childcare and healthcare "little scams" that cost too much to fund, but is willing to spend $300m in taxpayer dollars for a ballroom to host his lavish parties. When he said "I don't think about Americans' financial situation," he meant it. www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio...

Fourteen years ago today, the DACA program gave Dreamers the opportunity to build their lives in the only country many of them have ever called home. House Democrats remain committed to fighting for permanent protections for Dreamers.

I asked Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano why poorly trained employees responded to suicidal callers by suggesting that suicide was “one option.” Bisignano refused to take responsibility for his decisions that impaired the agency’s response to people in crisis.

The National Park Service is accepting public comments on President Trump’s proposed “Triumphal Arch.” Curious what people thought, I started reading through the responses. Here’s what they say:

This plan would require years of lane closures and major disruptions along one of our most critical transportation corridors. A traffic nightmare in the making. Even setting aside the obvious illegality of this project, the public deserves a full accounting of its impacts.

New: Trump officials are planning for 20 hrs per day of construction and big cranes — as tall as 320 feet high — to build president’s planned arch.

Donald Trump’s policies created a healthcare affordability crisis – and now his administration is encouraging Americans to borrow money from their own insurers just to afford the care they need. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/11/b...

Republicans continue to stick with a president who says he "loves inflation” instead of doing anything to lower costs for you. It’s time they start explaining why.

Inflation has overtaken wages for the first time in 3 years. That means Americans’ incomes are shrinking in real terms, largely because of the Iran war. My @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social Chart.

10 years ago today, 49 lives were stolen at Pulse Nightclub — a safe haven for Orlando’s LGBTQ+ community turned into a site of unimaginable horror. Let's honor the victims, survivors, and their loved ones by continuing to build a future free from gun violence, hate, and bigotry.

Happy Loving Day! 59 years ago, Virginia couple Mildred and Richard Loving won a landmark Supreme Court case that ended state bans on interracial marriage. Today, let’s celebrate their love, strength, and perseverance, while committing ourselves to fight against racism and discrimination.

Unlike Republicans, Ways and Means Democrats see Social Security and Medicare as promises to keep – not programs to cut.

Imagine working your entire life, paying into Social Security every paycheck, and trusting it will be there when you retire. Then watching politicians slash services, expose personal data, and threaten the very programs you earned. That's governance under Trump and Republicans.

Poet Galal El-Behairy has been imprisoned since March 2018 on baseless charges related to his writing of lyrics critical of President El-Sisi. The Egyptian government should release Galal immediately and end its systematic crackdown on free expression.

I’m grateful for emergency personnel's swift response to ensure the safety of everyone at the Pentagon and for the coordination among our federal and local partners. I’m relieved no hazard was identified and appreciate the public’s cooperation while safety protocols were carried out.

The American people do not want this war. Putting American boots on the ground would be a catastrophic mistake. 4 Republicans joined our war powers resolution, but we need a veto-proof majority to put American lives and our national interest over their fealty to a mad king.
