"The ballroom is really the president's main priority."
Not your health care.
Not rising prices.
Not the dragging economy.
Not ending the shutdown.
Trump's "main priority" is wrecking the White House so he can build a fancy new ballroom.

The White House belongs to the American people, not to one person. Past presidents rightly consulted with Congress before construction projects.
Donald Trump taking a wrecking ball to one of America's greatest symbols is awful and illegal, and sadly also an accurate metaphor.
Much of the White House's East Wing was torn down to make way for President Trump’s planned ballroom.
“They’re wrecking it,” said political scientist Martha Joynt Kumar. “And these are changes that can’t be undone. They’re destroying that history forever.”

As food banks across the country see rising demand, it was great to support @afacfeeds.bsky.social alongside my amazing team. We packed fruits and vegetables that will help feed families in our community.
The backslide into violence in Gaza is unacceptable. The U.S. must ensure all parties end the violence, adhere to the agreement, and proceed with its next phases. These efforts must also extend to the West Bank, where escalating settler attacks are jeopardizing peace.
Using the IRS against political opponents is plainly illegal. Joining my @waysmeanscmte.bsky.social colleagues to pursue an investigation:

Criticizing Trump doesn't make you "communist," "terrorist," or "extremist," and the Speaker should be above divisive attacks on millions of Americans.
A No Kings protester in Ohio was struck by a man who drove his truck onto the sidewalk.
Trump supporters were arrested in Pennsylvania and South Carolina for pulling guns on peaceful protesters.
A man Trump pardoned was just arrested for threatening to murder Leader Jeffries.
We were told those who attended this weekend’s activities would be scary, violent terrorists who hate America but that's not what I saw.
I saw patriots who love their country, and love exercising their constitutional rights to express themselves.
Wishing everyone celebrating today a Diwali filled with laughter, love, and light!
Rather than supplying the weapon systems Ukraine needs to win, Trump is back again to calling for Russia to be given the territory it launched the invasion to win, rewarding their aggression.
His wild swings on Ukraine alienate our allies and strengthen our enemies.
Bribery. Fraud. Insider trading. Corruption. Violent crime.
Trump doesn't care.
If you're his pal he'll shut down investigations and give you a get-out-of-jail-free card.
But if you're his enemy, Trump will get you prosecuted on made-up charges.
The definition of corruption.

Beyer: I don’t like to do ad hominem attacks, but I’ve served with four different speakers. This is the fifth one—by far the weakest speaker, I think, in American history.
I’m grateful we have providers like the Arlington Free Clinic to support Northern Virginia’s families, but the devastating health care cuts enacted by Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill will increase demand while reducing their funds. Supporting them is more important than ever!

The truth about Trump’s tariffs: “While administration officials have insisted that exporters will be forced to bear the greater share of the levies… just one-third will be borne by companies, with the rest falling on the shoulders of consumers, under conservative estimates.”
Donald Trump poses a clear threat to our democracy, and today people in our community and across the country came together to stand up to authoritarianism and corruption.
Americans and Alexandrians say No Kings!
It’s beginning to look like President Donald Trump wants to start a war with Venezuela.
Americans don't support a war in pursuit of regime change in Venezuela, and neither do I.

Families across New Jersey are being crushed by rising electricity bills.
That's why my colleagues & I are calling on PJM to take all possible measures to bring new energy online & bring down costs as quickly as possible. No more delays.
RIP Susan Stamberg, a trailblazer and one of the all time greats.
Susan Stamberg opened doors for women in journalism, and helped demonstrate the importance and power of public media. Sending my best to Susan's family and loved ones as we all mourn her loss.
The American people say #NoKings! See you out there tomorrow.
"The seismic change in Churchville is already felt by longtime residents who cannot remember the small community in western Augusta County without a doctor... Churchville is losing part of its identity."
This is what Trump & Republicans' Big Ugly Bill is doing to rural health:
