Honest question Elon Musk: what happened to DOGE when it comes to defense --the largest discretionary budget item. House republicans today are voting to add $150 billion, moving the DOD budget to over $1 trillion for the first time in history. Would you recommend a no vote?
Democrats need to provide a substantive vision of what's going to build economic prosperity in this country. And we should do that in a way that heals this country, brings this country together, and moves this country forward.
I'm here hosting a town hall in Grand Island, Nebraska — a proud rural farming community, hours outside of Omaha. More than 300 people are here to join us because their Republican representatives refuse to show up. @janekleeb.bsky.social
Each day, we’re witnessing negligence on a grand scale: abruptly firing top officials in a panic, fumbling classified military intel on multiple occasions, and undermining the national security of America and her allies.
As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, I refuse to watch Secretary Pete Hegseth’s floundering impair America’s global standing, blunt our strategic advantages, and endanger our military personnel at home and around the world.

Amazing!!! 1300 people showed up for a town hall with Democratic House Rep. Ro Khanna in Republican House Rep. Thomas Kean Jr.'s 7th Congressional District in New Jersey. Way to go, Ro! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Student loans are a life sentence for too many working and middle-class borrowers. We fix this in the short term by forgiving student loans for working and middle-class kids. We fix it in the long term by making all public colleges and vocational schools tuition-free.
BREAKING: Trump's Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just said: “The government can and will collect defaulted federal student loan debt by withholding tax refunds, federal pensions, and even their wages.”
I'm probably the only member of Congress who supports @davidhogg.bsky.social view that primaries are fine in safe districts. Where is it written in the Constitution that if you're an officeholder, you're entitled to own that seat? This country is based on competition & open ideas.
Tom Kean’s father was someone who stood up for civility and dialogue in American politics. He would have shown up last night. By not showing up for town halls, Congressman Kean, you are dishonoring your family's tradition of public service.
1,300 people came out to our town hall last night in NJ-07, a Republican-held district. Like we've said, something big is happening in this country.
