McGovern: Can you explain what is happening with the Iran war powers resolution that was scheduled to be voted on this evening? Are we not voting on it because the American people are sick and tired of this illegal war that is costing tens of billions of dollars?
🚨NEWS: Republicans just pulled a vote on an Iran War Powers Resolution because they knew they were going to lose.
They don’t have the guts to end a war that’s costing BILLIONS of dollars and putting lives at risk while driving up the cost of gas & groceries.
Trump’s “Golden Dome” is yet another self-absorbed vanity project that does nothing but waste taxpayer dollars and drive the world towards another nuclear arms race.
We should spend our resources on making America more affordable—not another trillion-dollar giveaway to defense contractors!
Trump is giving domestic terrorists who tried to overthrow our government BILLIONS of dollars from YOUR POCKET. All he cares about is enriching the billionaire Epstein class & anyone willing to commit crimes on his behalf.
It doesn’t get more corrupt than that.
The Trump administration has been a total disaster for religious freedom. Read my latest opinion piece in @rns.org:
He’s trying to bury his tax returns just like he’s trying to bury the Epstein Files.
This is the most obscenely corrupt and morally bankrupt administration in American history. And it’s not even close.
America’s Cuba policy is a failed relic of the Cold War. I was honored to speak with experts @fp4america.bsky.social’s 2026 Leadership Summit about how to fix it.
A good place to start: END the embargo. For 60 years, it’s done nothing but cause ordinary Cubans to suffer. That must change.
Remember: it was like pulling teeth to get Republicans to fund the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund.
But it took them no time at all to create a $1.8 billion Insurrection Slush Fund to pay off the legal fees of the January 6th rioters who beat cops.
These are sick, corrupt people.
So he made a deal with…himself?
How the hell is that legal?!
Started the morning off at Rhode Island Day with my friends @amo.house.gov, @magaziner.house.gov & Crystal FitzSimons from @fracposts.bsky.social talking about how Trump’s cuts to food assistance are hurting Rhode Islanders, Bay Staters, and folks across the country. We have to fight back!
🚨BREAKING: Republicans just voted AGAINST my amendment to stop Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund from bailing out the convicted felons who assaulted cops on January 6th.
You read that right. They blocked us from even debating the issue on the House floor.
Beyond shameful.
Says the guy whose boss just stole nearly TWO BILLION dollars to cut a big check for convicted criminals who beat cops on January 6th.
Trump says he “doesn’t think about” your financial situation.
But don’t worry, he’s spending a billion on his ballroom and nearly $2 billion on a slush fund to pay the criminals who beat cops on Jan 6.
Wake up. This career con man is fleecing you just as he’s fleeced everyone in his life.
Trump spent the morning talking about his ballroom.
You know what he didn’t tell us? How he’s going to lower the cost of living.
While Americans struggle to afford gas, groceries, healthcare, and housing, Donald Trump is worried about the drapes in his taxpayer-funded ballroom.
His priorities are way out of whack.
No one has profited off the presidency more than this crooked con man.
Trump has filled the swamp he promised to drain.
The power of the people is stronger than the people in power ✊🏻
