Trump believes he should be able to execute members of Congress.   Their supposed crime: putting out a video advising the intelligence community and military personnel not to follow unlawful orders.   This is totally disgusting—and terrifying.   What happened to “toning down the rhetoric”?
Trump can try to bury the truth by canceling the annual food security report—while spreading lies about SNAP fraud and dismissing decades of research—but families know how real the hunger crisis is. We’re not backing down—no matter how hard the Admin tries to hide the reality of hunger in America.
Celebrating this milestone alongside General Dianne Dunn, Adjutant General of the MNG, made today especially meaningful. America stands with the people of Montenegro as they advance democratic reforms and continue their progress toward the EU. Maine will continue to play a proud role in that work.
There’s always a Maine connection, as they say, and ours with Montenegro is ironclad. Next year marks the 20th anniversary of the partnership between Montenegro and the Maine National Guard, who've spent years helping strengthen Montenegro’s democratic institutions and building security cooperation.
Whatever crises we face, America’s commitment to our allies must remain steadfast. As co-chair of the Montenegro Caucus, I was honored to join President Milatović + the Montenegrin delegation to celebrate 120 years of diplomatic relations—and to reaffirm our strong support for Montenegro’s future.
Huge thanks to Hunger Free America for shedding light on this growing crisis—and to all the elected officials who came out to make their voices heard. If we can find $4.5 trillion to give tax breaks to the rich and powerful, we can find the money to feed people. It really is as simple as that.
It’s not often that a press conference moves Senators and Congresspeople to tears. Today was different. Between their $186 billion in SNAP cuts and the rising costs of groceries, Republican policies are creating a food insecurity crisis in this country. We must do everything we can to address it.
Remember: The Department of Education was created by Congress. Only an act of Congress can shut it down. If they get away with this, the impacts will be devastating—on the people these programs serve, and on so many communities that will be forced to pick up the slack (and the tab).
Trump is doubling down on dismantling DoED—by moving the offices that oversee civil rights, special education, Indian education, and secondary education into other agencies. By law, these programs must be housed in DoED. You can’t just move them to another department. That’s not how it works.
I implore my colleagues in the Senate to follow our lead and vote to make these files public without delay. And if President Trump is truly serious about transparency, he doesn’t have to wait for Congress. He can release every remaining file today. The victims deserve nothing less.
With our near-unanimous vote today, the House took the first crucial step in making all the Epstein files public—and finally giving the victims the justice they deserve. I know it wasn’t easy for Republicans to defy partisan pressure (including outright intimidation). But they did the right thing.
He could singlehandedly end world hunger, house every unhoused person in America and pay for enough solar panels to make us *the* leader in clean energy. As Billie Eilish said, "If you're a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?" This kind of wealth disparity is unsustainable—and morally obscene.
Think about this: A guy who made his fortune selling other people’s ideas, has run several companies into the ground, and has shown time and again just how little he understands about… pretty much everything?… makes more money than 1.5 million elementary teachers COMBINED. This is truly grotesque.
Monday morning commute from a very cold Maine to Washington. This week the House will vote to release ALL the Epstein Files. No more delays. No more excuses. The victims deserve justice and the public demands transparency.
The Trump Administration has turned the NEH into a slush fund for the president’s political agenda — and the communities across this country that rely on fair, competitive grants are the ones paying the price. These abuses must be answered for.
They wiped out nearly every longstanding grant, fired the independent scholars who ensure integrity in the review process, and gutted the staff needed to run the NEH. And once those guardrails were removed, they rammed through enormous handpicked awards that avoided any real scrutiny.
Let’s be clear: This has NOTHING to do with the shutdown. SNAP already has strict renewal rules and almost NO fraud. Forcing millions to reapply is a deliberate effort to shrink the program and leave families hungry. It’s bullshit. It’s cruel. And it’s indefensible.
Brooke Rollins says on Newsmax SNAP participants will have to re-apply for the program. Details are still unclear. via Grace Yarrow for @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
