As costs for everything from gas to groceries to health care continue to skyrocket, Americans are taking on credit card debt to make ends meet.
All while Trump is focused on getting taxpayers to fund his billion dollar ballroom.

As the American people suffer higher prices inflicted on them by Trump's foolish, unpopular war, Republicans in Washington – who keep voting to continue the war – are preparing to spend a billion dollars in taxpayer money on a fancy ballroom.
Unreal.

See if you can spot the effects of the Iran war.

“Inflation surged to 3.8% in April, its highest level in nearly three years, according to data released Tuesday, as the war in Iran causes a ripple effect across the economy and energy prices surge.” www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...
The richest country in the world shouldn’t have families wondering how they’ll eat – but after the massive SNAP cuts enacted by Trump and Republicans, millions are struggling to put food on the table.
“We’re eating less. We’re eating more frozen stuff.”

On Military Spouse Appreciation Day, we recognize the sacrifices military families make in service to our nation.
I’m proud to lead bipartisan, bicameral legislation to expand job opportunities for military spouses and support our military families.

Trump promised his tariffs would spark an “economic boom” but instead, small businesses are getting hammered.
After 13 straight months of job losses, small businesses have lost 4.5x more jobs in 2025 than during the COVID pandemic. That’s the reality of Trump’s tariff chaos.

Congress never authorized Trump’s ridiculous Marie Antoinette ballroom in the White House any more than we authorized his disastrous war of aggression in Iran.
The White House now wants $1 billion from the American people for his self-chosen billionaires’ ballroom.
Absolutely absurd.
This Public Service Recognition Week, I'm deeply grateful for the dedicated public servants who keep our country running. They deserve our gratitude and respect, not political attacks, mass firings, and efforts to undermine their work.

NEW: Infectious disease experts are concerned the CDC and NIH aren’t doing enough to respond the hantavirus outbreak.
“This, to me, not overstating it, is a travesty,” one said.

It would be nice if we had an FBI Director focused on responding to things like this with the same verve he shows for abusing his power to investigate people who discuss his consumption of alcohol.
9,000 schools across the country are being affected by a massive hack right now that is shutting down Canvas during finals week for millions of American students (including me).
Trump’s tariffs are an illegal tax on the American people.
That was true of the tariffs struck down by the Supreme Court, and of the tariffs he replaced them with.
This unconstitutional abuse of power is costing American families thousands of dollars and hurting our economy.

Donald Trump’s illegal tariffs are killing small businesses.
In 2025, small businesses cut nearly 300k jobs. That’s 4.5X larger than the number lost during the pandemic.
To make it worse, Congressional Republicans are helping Trump crush small businesses.

🚨JUST IN: Due to Trump's tariffs, small businesses LOST 4.5x more jobs in 2025 than they did in 2020 during the pandemic.
Trump's policies are bad for small businesses, bad for workers, and bad for the country.
