This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

Trump did say one true thing.
We have the greatest military in the world. He’s right.
They are extraordinary.
They deserve so much better than this.
He said the Strait will “open naturally” after the conflict ends but provided no timeline, mechanism, or explanation.
And after all of it, he gave us no exit plan, definition of victory, or answer to the question every military family deserves: how does this end?
He said “regime change was never our goal,” then spent three minutes celebrating that Iran’s leaders are dead.
He claimed Iran’s missile capability is “just about used up,” while Iranian attacks continue to shut down the Strait of Hormuz and paralyze global oil shipping in real time.
He attacked Obama for releasing $1.7 billion of Iran’s own frozen money as part of a negotiated deal that halted their nuclear program.
Yet his administration cleared the way for Iran to receive $14 billion in oil revenue while Americans are fighting and dying there.
He claimed we are “totally independent of the Middle East” for oil, yet his own Treasury Secretary lifted sanctions on Iranian oil days later to prevent an energy catastrophe.
You cannot have it both ways.
He said the economy is “the strongest in history” as gas prices have surged since the war began, markets just had their worst stretch since his tariff crisis, and his own advisors privately said the economic pain could last for months.
Trump addressed the nation last night about a war Congress never authorized and the American people never voted for.
We deserve the truth. We got something far different.

Republicans’ One Big Ugly Bill gutted $600 billion from Medicaid. Millions of Americans who had no other way to get care lost their coverage. Democrats warned this would happen.
Now it is: hospitals are closing, premiums are spiking, and the system is buckling under the strain.

I am praying for every one of those Marines and their families.
And I am demanding that the Trump administration answer a question those families deserve to hear answered: what are we asking these extraordinary Americans to fight and potentially die for?
That is not too much to ask.
That is exactly why Congress has a constitutional obligation to make sure their lives are never put on the line without a clear mission, a sound strategy, and a defined endgame.
These are some of the most elite, battle-ready warriors this nation has ever produced.
They train relentlessly and execute flawlessly.
And when they are called, they go, no questions asked.
On March 19, approximately 2,500 Marines from Camp Pendleton's own 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit departed San Diego and headed toward a war zone.
There was no vote of Congress and no clearly articulated strategy shared with the American people or their representatives.
There is no more solemn responsibility I carry as a Member of Congress than the question of when to send American men and women into harm's way.

Abandoning NATO would be the single greatest gift Donald Trump could ever give Vladimir Putin.

The question is this: Who will stand up while others watch silently as Trump walks America to the edge of a cliff with no democratic allies left to pull us back?
Republicans spent decades calling themselves the party of national security.
For those who meant any of it, I hope they'll say so now. History will not be kind to those who stayed quiet while Trump dismantled the architecture that kept the world from repeating the catastrophes of the 20th century.
