Trump’s shocking “bombshells” about China are totally bogus.
The fact is our intelligence agencies unanimously agreed that China did not even try to change a single vote in the 2020 election.
Trump releases a bunch of stale, discredited documents to prop up old, debunked election lies but he’s still covering up the Epstein files.

Republicans are trying to pass another cost-hiking budget.
They want to spend billions of taxpayer dollars to rig our elections and fund Trump’s reckless war — but not a penny to lower costs.
You deserve better.

Yesterday, New Dem Vice Chair @carbajal.house.gov, @beyer.house.gov, and @repjimcosta.bsky.social met with local small business owners to hear firsthand how they're being affected by Trump's reckless economic and immigration policies and discuss how New Dems can continue supporting Main Street.
It is long past time for our country to reevaluate its security relationship with the state of Israel.
Today I will vote for Rep. Thomas Massie's amendment to eliminate billions in military assistance funding to Israel.
Here's why:

Todd Blanche is lying. The DOJ STILL has not released all the Epstein Files as required by law. The coverup continues.
Republicans are trying to install Trump lawyer Todd Blanche atop the Justice Department.
His record:
- Epstein files coverup
- Pardons for J6ers who attacked police
- Corrupt Trump slush fund
- Mass purge of career prosecutors
It's awful that he's even being considered for AG.
There's a reason Trump and his allies and cronies are afraid of the International Criminal Court, which prosecutes war crimes, and are trying to destroy it.
It's good that Trump is backing down from his brainless idea, which Marco Rubio previously described as illegal, that would further raise prices.
Unfortunately it comes too late to undo damage to the global economy from Trump's crazed directives. This war is a disaster.
ICE under Trump, Mullin, and Stephen Miller is a lawless paramilitary force inflicting violence and chaos on American communities.
We can't accept the killing of innocent people, most recently in Texas and Maine.
ICE is beyond fixing—we should just dismantle it and start over.
Trump was asked what Americans should expect in his war with Iran, which has already lasted many times longer than he promised.
He responded with a comparison to the Vietnam War.
This is insane.
Donald Trump has turned the presidency into the most lucrative business venture of his life, nearly tripling his net worth.
It's repulsive. This level of self-dealing is unlike anything we’ve seen from any other President and my Republican colleagues should stop enabling it.

When families lose SNAP or Medicaid, they may also lose access to other supports for which they are eligible, including free school meals. These ripple effects can reduce children’s access to essential nutrition and increase hardship for families. https://ampr.gs/3SJsqm4

NEW: A year after H.R. 1 enacted the deepest SNAP cuts in history, the number of children receiving SNAP nationwide has likely dropped by more than 1.5 million, based on our analysis of available data from 17 states. www.cbpp.org/research/foo...

Over 4 million Americans have lost food assistance because of Trump and Republicans' Big Ugly Bill.
People will go hungry at the hands of this Republican majority.
Trump tried to game the courts to bless an illegal scheme to siphon nearly $2 billion in taxpayer dollars into a slush fund and shield his family from tax audits.
The courts saw through it, shut it down, and referred administration lawyers for possible disciplinary action.
NEW: A federal judge said President Trump attempted to manipulate the courts, concocting a lawsuit to justify the settlement that established the "anti-weaponization" fund and shielded his family from IRS scrutiny.

For decades, the Endangered Species Act allowed America to innovate without harming wildlife.
This move by the Trump administration will have catastrophic impacts on endangered species and the habitats that support them.
Breaking News: The Trump administration moved to open the habitats of imperiled animals to farming, drilling, mining and other development. Environmentalists characterized it as the most severe erosion of protections for wildlife in half a century. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/10/c...
For over 200 years free and fair elections have been the cornerstone of our democracy.
Donald Trump is interfering with the independent institutions that help run our elections, we're going to do everything we can to ensure that your right to vote is protected in November.
President Trump fired members of the bipartisan Elections Assistance Commission less than two weeks after the Supreme Court gave him broad leeway to reshape boards that were designed to be independent.

Students are expected to pay more for school, all to pay for tax breaks for billionaires and corporations.
We need people with advanced degrees make our country strong, so those degrees must be affordable for all.
Trump and Republicans put those degrees farther out of reach.
