This is Trump’s ‘Golden Age’:
“Economists and supply chain experts say what starts in the transportation sector, where trucking and rail companies are feeling the pain now — will eventually push prices on virtually everything in the economy up.”

Millions of Americans are already losing their health insurance because of massive cuts enacted by Trump and Republicans. Now, they want to kick another 760,000 Americans off the ACA marketplace.
This administration created this health care crisis and now it’s making it even worse.
ICE is removing thousands of people from its public detainee locator, meaning families and attorneys can no longer reliably find where their loved ones or clients are being held.
This is a deliberate hurdle to deny access to legal remedies. Outrageous.

AI-assisted air traffic control should meet basic standards before use.
- Thoroughly test the system and ensure it’s safe.
- Involve ATCs in its development and provide adequate training.
- Be transparent about how the system works and communicate with the public.
That’s the bare minimum.
Scott Bessent already has a very important job which frankly is not going well right now.
Making him "AI Czar" would signal yet again that Trump is taking neither the U.S. economy nor artificial intelligence seriously.
🟡 SCOOP: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is emerging as a frontrunner for President Donald Trump’s new “AI czar” position

Both of us know what the risks are if there is an error, and neither of us want that to happen.
Safety has to come first, Mr. Secretary.
We should not be testing new systems for the first time in one of the most complex airspaces in the world, or without getting input from the air traffic controllers or training them on how it will work.

STARTING SOON: I'm leading a Spotlight Hearing that will explore the security and resilience of our election systems and how we can best protect the right to vote. Tune in at 2 pm. youtube.com/live/qfqJvPI...

Today, Oversight Dems are hearing from family members and witnesses of Americans killed by ICE—Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, Renée Good, Johan Guerrero, and Alex Pretti. We’ll be streaming across platforms at 3:30 PM EST.
The FAA should not use my constituents as guinea pigs for an unproven AI air traffic control system that has Americans’ lives in its hands.
I’m calling on the FAA to immediately suspend use of this AI system at Washington area airports until its safety has been established.
My full statement:
Trump says his name should go on the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts because he's "saving" it.
Internal documents show he's doing all he can, short of tearing the building down, to destroy this great American arts institution.
We WILL save the Kennedy Center.
Internal emails and documents obtained by The New York Times demonstrate President Trump’s political capture of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, including how officials once pursued a plan to unload much of the art collection. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/u...
Wishing a meaningful Yom Kippur and an easy fast to everyone observing.
All but seven House Republicans voted to continue Trump's disastrous Iran War.
It's one of the most unpopular conflicts in U.S. history, and it's doing nothing to advance our national interests while making everything more expensive for the American people.

Most Americans can expect to pay significantly more each month for health insurance next year, whether they get it through work, the Affordable Care Act or Medicare.
Putting a drone launching site directly in the landing path for DCA is a stupid, dangerous, and unworkable idea.
Trump clearly expects to lose a lawsuit and therefore wants to set up a pretext to argue that the arch is tied to national security. Which is obviously idiotic.
President Trump said his proposed 250-foot triumphal arch will now be a “top grade” military complex that will house drones, snipers and ammunition “for National Security purposes.”

Yes Trump’s ban on news media outlets is unconstitutional, illegal, un-American, and authoritarian, and yes it will be struck down in court.
It’s also extreme loser behavior.
He’s doing this because his administration is an embarrassing failure that keeps getting less popular.
Yesterday I joined thousands of people outside the Kennedy Center to stand up for the arts and against Trump's narcissism.
This monument belongs to all of us, and I will do everything I can to ensure it stands for decades to come.
I’m joining @repwalkinshaw.bsky.social’s push to overturn this, as we have successfully done in the past.
Trump quietly used claims of an economic “national emergency” to deny federal workers an annual pay increase to meet the rising cost of living.
Meanwhile he says we’re in a “Golden Age.”
Inflation is high and Trump is making it worse with his pay freeze.
