You can tell a lot about what a president cares about by what he focuses on in the State of the Union. President Trump spent more time talking about hockey than lowering the price of housing or groceries.
Trump just rambled on about Iran, but you didn’t hear anything about a plan or a strategy. That’s because he put American lives on the line, but there is no plan. There is no strategy.
Today marks four years since Russia launched its full-spectrum invasion of Ukraine, and Trump is still both-sidesing this war. Russia is the aggressor. Ukraine is fighting for its survival, and we need to stand with them. This isn’t hard.
FEMA has billions of dollars in its account. Republicans gave more money to ICE than to the Marines. What Trump is saying about the shutdown just isn’t true–the Department of Homeland Security has plenty of money.
Americans do want Trump to focus on deporting violent criminals – but fewer than 15% of those Trump has deported fit the bill, according to his own DHS. That’s why Trump’s deportation agenda is more unpopular than ever.
Trump’s tariffs have been a disaster for Americans, costing families more than $1,000 last year. The Supreme Court gave Trump a way out. Instead, he’s doubling down on raising your costs.
My State of the Union guest, Dr. Neil Hockstein, works to protect Delawareans from losing access to health care because of Medicaid and Affordable Care Act cuts. We’re hoping for real solutions about how to lower health care costs for Americans, but we’re not counting on it.
Whenever Trump brags about job numbers, remember he tried to fire the person in charge of them six months ago because he didn’t like the numbers. He always wants the credit, but never takes responsibility when things go wrong.
Two-thirds of Americans think we’re headed for a recession or already in one. When Trump brags about the economy tonight, all he’s doing is showing how out of touch he is with most Americans.
Hours before Trump addresses Congress and the country, there’s new reporting that the Justice Department continues to protect Trump from more damning documents in the Epstein Files.⁣ ⁣ There will be survivors in the room tonight. He owes them an apology.
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU
If you’re watching tonight’s State of the Union, don’t expect answers on: ❌Skyrocketing health costs ❌Layoffs and shuttered small businesses ❌The 38,000 mentions of Trump in the Epstein files ❌The murder of Americans at the hands of ICE ❌Solutions for people like you
Today marks 4 years since Putin’s brutal war in Ukraine began. Just last week, I saw firsthand in Odessa the courage of Ukrainians—civilians, soldiers, leaders—fighting for their freedom amid unspeakable cruelty. The US must keep pressure on Russia and demand accountability for Putin’s aggression.
Glad to see the British authorities pursuing justice and rooting out the foul stench of depravity wherever it lives, whether it’s in the royal family or an ambassador’s residence. Our own government needs to start doing the same.
BREAKING: Former UK ambassador Peter Mandelson has been arrested in a misconduct probe over his ties with Jeffrey Epstein, police said.
Congratulations to our Olympic hockey teams on their gold medals, and to every member of Team USA in Italy! Whether your favorite sport is skating or skiing, hockey or halfpipe, these Olympics have been a chance for us to celebrate the best of the human spirit, and to be engaged and uplifted!
Today, SCOTUS ruled 6-3 that Trump’s sweeping tariffs on 100+ countries were illegal. The Court did its job. Now Congress must stand up for American consumers and small businesses by protecting this decision.
