Trump says affordability is a “con job” and a “fake narrative” — but only 26% of Americans approve of how he’s handling the cost of living.
Bottom line: Trump doesn’t care if you can’t afford to feed your family or pay your bills. He’s getting rich, and that’s all that matters.

Happy Kwanzaa to all who celebrate! Wishing you love, light, and joy today and always.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!
Wishing peace, love, and joy to you all today and always.
Welcome to the newest co-sponsors of my Medicare for All bill in the House!
Medicare for All is not only good policy — as premiums skyrocket for millions of Americans — it is incredibly popular. Let’s keep building momentum for universal health care and get this passed!
ICYMI: I introduced my Dignity for Detained Immigrants Act, which would require greater oversight of detention facilities, repeal mandatory detention, and prohibit the detention of families and children.
It’s time to protect immigrants from this lawless administration.
As energy bills skyrocket for millions of American families, Trump is killing off production of our country’s largest source of renewable energy.
Why? Because his Big Oil billionaire buddies want more of your money. It’s greed and corruption at your expense.

There are now more people in ICE detention than ever before — 68,440 people.
Most have never committed a crime. Many are being held in facilities with horrific conditions. It’s cruel and inhumane, and it must end. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
One of my favorite parts of my job is getting to call people with good news! It was such a privilege to talk to the young people that I am nominating for our country’s military academies.
Here’s some joy as we head into the holidays!
Trump’s cronies at the DOJ were so busy scrubbing the President’s name from the Epstein Files that they forgot to redact some mentions of victims — exposing survivors publicly.
They care more about protecting Trump than protecting victims of sexual abuse.
Trump’s name is all over the Epstein files, but the DOJ is still working to protect him.
I will continue to call for transparency and to demand justice for the survivors. We all deserve the truth.
Thanks to Trump’s tariffs, costs of gifts this holiday season have skyrocketed — leaving many families with less under the tree and empty wallets.
Last month, Congress passed the Epstein Transparency Act, and the President signed it. Yet the DOJ is still releasing far too many redacted files and even fake information.
They are not following the law. Release ALL the files.
This is a win for the people sent to this gulag, and despite the pushback from Trump and his cronies, Judge Boasberg is continuing to stand up for the rule of law.
Judge Boasberg is once again reaffirming that Trump did not have the authority to send immigrants to CECOT to be tortured and violated due process rights.
He is also ruling the gov't must have a plan to give these migrants due process by Jan 5th. www.cbsnews.com/news/judge-o...
Good. Companies shouldn’t be allowed to use AI to hike their prices based on your shopping habits and charge you more than your neighbors.
Congress must step in and ban personalized price gouging.

Americans can't afford Christmas gifts or health care.
Trump is naming battleships after himself.
Who is this presidency for?

Journalists at CBS (owned by a pro-Trump billionaire) put together a story on how this admin sent immigrants to be tortured at CECOT — then CBS leadership killed it.
Our democracy depends on a free press that can do its job without censorship. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Great to meet with @the-rac.bsky.social to discuss the need to curb settler violence in the West Bank and the harms of Trump weaponizing antisemitism to push his political agenda at home and abroad.
Grateful for their partnership and their continued advocacy for democracy, justice, and peace.
The Pentagon just failed their EIGHTH STRAIGHT AUDIT.
Congress cannot continue funneling hundreds of billions of dollars to a completely unaccountable agency while American families can’t afford food or health care. www.militarytimes.com/news/pentago...
