Yaron Lischinsky Sarah Milgrim A beautiful young couple, about to be engaged, just starting their lives, gunned down seemingly because they were Jewish This was cold-blooded murder of two Jewish staffers from the Israeli embassy Such a blatant, targeted act of antisemitism should outrage everyone
With the news that Trump formally accepted the Qatari jet: I took to the Senate floor to pass my bill to block DoD from spending a single penny on a foreign Air Force One It’s a bribe It’s a national security threat But Republicans stood with Trump and blocked my bill THAT’S NOT AMERICA FIRST
The Republican tax bill would hurt the most vulnerable Americans while benefitting the billionaires. American families will lose healthcare American families will lose food benefits American families will lose jobs American families will lose money
A headline from USA Today reads: "New analysis shows GOP tax bill would decrease resources for poorest Americans"
120 days into Trump’s presidency: Trump’s trade war is raising prices The GOP is fighting to take away Medicaid Distrust in Trump’s leadership is rising on the world stage
While Republicans are giving tax cuts to billionaires, Trump is hurting American farmers and taking food out of the mouths of hungry kids around the world Letting kids go hungry isn’t just unfair, it’s immoral. Hurting farmers isn’t just incompetent, it’s bad for America.
A headline from Politico reads: "USDA spiking global food aid grants"
Republicans' 'Big Beautiful Bill' is forcing billions in cuts to MEDICARE—which will hurt seniors. On top of the LARGEST cut to Medicaid in American history. It's shameful.
A headline from The Washington Post reads: "Trump and GOP’s tax bill would force cuts to Medicare, CBO says"
NEWS: The GOP plan to gut Medicaid could kick 1.5 MILLION New Yorkers off health insurance and rip $13.5 BILLION from local New York hospitals and health care every year. That's what New York Republicans are preparing to steal from New Yorkers to fund their billionaire tax cuts.
Companies are raising prices because of Trump’s tariff tax and it’s hurting families. And what does Trump say about it? “Eat the tariffs.” Maybe it’s hard for Trump to hear everyone's concerns from inside his luxury Qatari jet.
This is disgusting The Trump admin is disrespecting the Capitol Police by awarding $5 MILLION to the family of Ashley Babbitt AN INSURRECTIONIST This sends a sickening message to police and first responders When it matters most, Trump will turn his back on you
Trump taking this Qatari plane is a national security threat and a bribe. And I’m introducing legislation to stop the Defense Department from spending a single penny on it.
It's pretty rich for Donald Trump to tell retailers that they have to “eat the tariffs” Meanwhile he’s accepting luxury planes and crypto deals in the Middle East Donald Trump does more to help himself than to help America
NEWS: Because we fought for it, Trump just finally lifted his stop-work order for Equinor’s Empire Wind off Long Island. Many thousands of good-paying jobs Billions of dollars already invested Clean and affordable power for Long Island homeowners and businesses
Equinor’s Empire Wind is a major offshore wind project in NY But Trump suddenly issued a stop work order without justification Good jobs Billions spent All on hold Trump claims to want energy dominance but this is all just because of a gripe he has about offshore wind and his Scotland golf course
I’m introducing a bill to prohibit any foreign aircraft from being used as Air Force One It'll prohibit DoD from using funds to procure or modify foreign aircraft for presidential flights Retrofitting the Qatari plane would cost billions and could never even truly eliminate all catastrophic risks
The only logical decision. Of course it’s against the law in America to pick up someone off the street and send them to a foreign prison without due process. Trump can’t be allowed to shred our laws, Constitution, and our legal right to due process. Today it’s immigrants. Tomorrow it could be you.
A headline from CNN reads: “Supreme Court blocks Trump from restarting Alien Enemies Act deportations”
Trump says he cares about combatting antisemitism, meanwhile he keeps hiring, enabling, and empowering dangerous antisemites and white supremacists. It must end. Now.
A headline from NPR reads: “Multiple Trump White House officials have ties to antisemitic extremists”
17 relatives of El Chapo Of the head of the Sinaloa Cartel—which the Trump admin designated as a terrorist organization in February That’s who “tough on the border” Trump just paroled right into America What, did the cartel offer him a gold-plated helicopter? It’s dangerous
By cutting SNAP benefits, Republicans are: Increasing hunger Increasing poverty Increasing costs for states and families Increasing the wealth of the ultra-rich That’s their idea of a “Big, Beautiful, Bill”
