Trump ran last year on three promises: ‘I'll lower your costs, Make America Healthy Again, and no new stupid wars.’
He's failed on one, failed on two, and now seems to be sleepwalking into number three.

It’s not enough for us to just be against Donald Trump. We also need a positive and affirmative agenda – one based on opportunity, security, and justice ➡️ democracyjournal.org/magazine/79/....
Absolutely damning that the White House Chief of Staff admits that the Caribbean bombings aren’t about drugs or keeping Americans safe.
They’re about sleepwalking us into war for regime change in Venezuela.
The President of the United States is using the death of a talented actor & director to score political points. At a time when so many choose to remain silent in the face of injustice – Rob Reiner decided to speak out. He stood for democracy, truth, & empathy. May Rob & Michele Reiner Rest in Peace.
In order to rebuild the Democratic Party, we must focus on opportunity, security, and justice in ways that actually improve Americans’ lives.
I lay out my thoughts on how to move the country forward in Democracy Journal – read more here: democracyjournal.org/magazine/79/....
Opportunity, security, and justice. These are the values that led me to become a Democrat – and the values that can help us win back the trust of the American people.
I hope you'll read my new essay about how I believe my party can chart a new path forward and rebuild our country ⤵️
In the face of today's unspeakable tragedy in Sydney, I join Jews in Delaware and all across the world in celebrating the first night of Hanukkah. Out of darkness, the miracle of light.
Annie’s and my hearts go out to the families of the two servicemembers and the interpreter killed during today’s attack in Syria. We will always remember their service and sacrifice.
I’m headed to the Senate floor right now to vote to extend the ACA premium tax credits. Democrats have a plan to make health care more affordable. Republicans don’t.
No child or family should ever go hungry in this country. The president needs to stop using SNAP as a political weapon and making Americans suffer for his own partisan ends.
21 days.
That’s when ACA tax credits are set to expire, and premiums will double for millions of Americans. Health care will get worse for everyone.
When families are struggling, remember who’s responsible: Donald Trump and the Republican Party.
Can't wait for my annual tradition tomorrow: the Taste of Delaware! We have a wide range of talent from the First State – from craft beer and local wine to kitchens big and small, we’re bringing together the best of Delaware’s culinary scene and showing Washington what we have to offer. #TasteOfDE
Reposted bySenator Chris Coons
On my 1 year anniversary in the Senate, I reflect on what it means to be both a caregiver and a United States Senator.
As I begin my own personal caregiving journey, I promise to fight for the care this country deserves, as I would for my own loved ones.
Secretary Hegseth doesn’t understand what actually keeps America safe. He needs to resign.
What’s the Republicans’ health care plan?
They don’t have one. They haven’t for 15 years.
That’s why we’re voting this week on the Senate Democrats’ plan to extend ACA tax credits so millions of Americans can keep affordable coverage. I hope my GOP colleagues will join me.
Great to meet V Spehar of @underthedesknews.bsky.social yesterday in the Capitol!
We’re taking action to protect America’s AI leadership and ensure our most advanced chips don’t end up in the hands of the CCP. That’s why I’m introducing the SAFE CHIPS Act with Senator Ricketts to strengthen U.S. innovation and national security. www.ft.com/content/0e4e...
Any service member who acted with such disregard for our national security would be dismissed. Our nation’s highest ranking defense official should not be held to a lower standard than the men and women he oversees. For the good of our nation, I once again call on Secretary Hegseth to resign.
The United States must not sell advanced AI chips to China, plain and simple. The world's foremost experts on AI unanimously agree.
