Republicans voted down an amendment to block Trump's $1.8 BILLION slush fund for violent insurrectionists. They're choosing to bend the knee to this corrupt President who wants to pay off cop beaters—all while Trump & Republicans won't spend a cent to lower health care costs.
50 Senate Republicans just blocked a measure that would permanently stop Trump from creating his $1.8B slush fund for J6ers
BREAKING: Senate Republicans have just begun a marathon vote-a-rama in the Senate. Why? Not to lower health care or housing costs. Instead, they are fighting tooth & nail to give ICE another $70 billion blank check with ZERO reforms. A disgrace.
Trump and Stephen Miller built up a paramilitary force at DHS that they essentially promised immunity, and set it loose on American communities. I'm not going to write a blank check for a federal agency that refuses to distinguish between American citizens and violent criminals.
I'll take my wins where I can get 'em! My bill with @repricklarsen.bsky.social to restore marine habitats in the Northwest Straits just passed the House! I'll keep working to get it through the Senate so we can keep protecting marine species & growing WA state's outdoor recreation economy! 🌊🛶🌲
It's been two weeks since I connected Trump's Acting Attorney General with Epstein survivors and they haven't heard a peep from the DOJ. That's disgraceful. Todd Blanche said he'd meet with them—and I will not let him off the hook. Epstein survivors deserve justice.
I trust Trump about as far as I could throw him. Congress needs to BAN any kind of corrupt slush fund like this from EVER existing. A wink and a nod won't cut it—we need to ban it by LAW.
MENG: Are you going to issue new memo in writing rescinding weaponization fund? BLANCHE: I'm not committing to putting anything in writing. What would the purpose be? M: You established it in writing so it makes sense to rescind it in writing B: Ok. I'm not committing to doing anything in writing
DHS is on track to break last year's record for people dying in its custody. ICE agents tear gassed a U.S. Senator last week. I'm not writing a blank check to an agency that is engaged in nonstop brutality and abuses of power.
American families have now paid $100 BILLION in higher costs because of Trump's war in Iran. Trump promised no new wars and lower prices. He's delivered an endless war and higher prices.
$100 billion. That’s our estimate of the cost of the Iran War to American households. That’s nearly $750 per household. This includes the additional U.S. military costs and the higher energy and other prices resulting from the war.
Bill Pulte is a proven crook who will target anyone Trump considers an enemy. He isn't qualified for his current job, and he would pose an actual threat to our national security as Acting Director of National Intelligence. Every Senator should demand he be fired immediately.
Part of why people are spending more is because Trump is making everything more expensive. In the face of Trump's tariffs, his war & rising gas prices, and the rampant government corruption, I think it's safe to say most people are NOT so optimistic.
Hassett: "People are spending more on gas, but they're also spending more on everything else -- not just groceries, but restaurants and so on. I think that's a sign you see when people are optimistic about the future."
The American people should understand that Trump is spending massive taxpayer resources to needlessly detain families who pose no threat, including CHILDREN. This is disgusting, inhumane, and must stop immediately.
No one should assume Trump will voluntarily put an end to his $1.8 billion slush fund for insurrectionists. So let's put it to a vote—to bar any President from EVER putting taxpayer money toward a crooked scheme like this again. Put every Senator on the record.
This is what happens when you let the opinions of anti-abortion extremists into the doctor's office. They don't care that medication abortion is THE BEST standard of care for miscarriages. All they care about is controlling women's bodies, no matter the outcome.
🚨This video is for people with over $50 million in a trust fund. 🚨 Nurses and firefighters can't avoid paying taxes, so neither should billionaires. Complicated dynasty trusts are just tax avoidance by another name–time to close this loophole, America.
So, in an effort to "punish" Democratic cities, Trump wants to tank our economy even further. Halting international flights into some of the busiest hubs in the country is not just idiotic, it would spell economic disaster for the ENTIRE country.
