As a hurricane barrels toward Jamaica, the buildup of US troops in the Caribbean is well-equipped to support the regional recovery from this catastrophic storm. President Trump and Sec. Hegseth should instruct them to assist as soon as is feasible. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Our veterans are suffering because Republicans are keeping Washington shut down. Why are Republicans preventing the government from keeping our promises to those who have served?
President Trump is weaponizing the DOJ to punish his political enemies, even though AG Bondi promised the Senate under oath that this wouldn’t happen. This isn’t justice. It's corruption.
I'm glad Trump has not only realized that Putin is the obstacle to peace, he's now acting like it. We need to keep moving in this direction in concert with our partners and allies and make it clear to Russia that they cannot wait out the West.
Families and communities across the country are feeling the impact of the Republican shutdown: 🍎Schools may not be reimbursed for free and reduced-price meals. ✈️Travelers are facing delays. 🏠Programs that provide childcare, job training, and support for seniors and veterans are at risk of closing.
Missed checks for air traffic control means missed flights for the rest of us. Air travel will grind to a halt unless Republicans end their disastrous government shutdown.
Trump’s shakedown of the Department of Justice for $230 million of your taxpayer dollars is the latest example that this corrupt administration is only looking out for one person—and it’s not you.
Just because Fox News and my Republican colleagues keep saying it, that doesn’t mean it’s true. No, our bill doesn’t give health care to illegal immigrants – it just stops health care costs from skyrocketing for millions of Americans.
Why is Trump more concerned about getting his ballroom opened than the government reopened?
Trump notes the sound of construction of his new ballroom at the White House and says, "that's music to my ears. When I hear that sound, it reminds me of money. In this case it reminds me of lack of money because I'm paying for it."
This government shutdown won't end without trust, and frankly, Republicans have spent ten months giving us reasons not to trust them. They need to come to the table so we can reopen the government and get back to work for the American people.
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer. During this National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s honor those who have fought this terrible disease and come together to find a cure.
