House Republicans say they want to root out "fraud, waste, and abuse," but when it comes to the DoD they want to handicap the office responsible for finding waste.

"The Golden Age": House Republicans gave their Billionaire donors a Tax Cut while Young Americans are putting their lives on pause because they can't afford housing, healthcare, or groceries.
All Americans deserve to have a shot at the American Dream, not just the Mega Rich.
First crudités, now carrot cake.
Dr. Oz fails to meet the moment as Americans go hungry because USDA canceled millions of pounds of shipments to food banks, and SNAP cuts are looming.
The Trump Admin is cutting off lifelines for Americans and telling them it's their fault.
Reposted byCongresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon
Republicans left no stone unturned in their bill’s assault on health care.
The GOP message is clear: if you can’t afford health care, you’re on your own.

The biggest winners under the OBBB?
Private prison contractors who will be paid billions by ICE and also happen to be big Trump donors.

DOGE gutting @SocialSecurity has caused overwhelmed phone lines, website crashes, and reduced customer service.
While billionaires like Musk won't be affected, the lives of Americans who depend on social security are now in limbo.

ICYMI: I talked to Solomon Jones about how OBBBA will harm our community.

Islamophobia has no place in our country. Rep. Randy Fine's comments are vile, racist, and beneath an elected official who serves in the people's house. This kind of bigotry should not be tolerated.
@jayapal.house.gov: “Trump's promise to exempt taxes that tipped workers pay may sound good, but a look under the hood of the Republican tax law reveals a big betrayal and little benefit to the millions of Americans working for tips.”

The 14th Amendment was ratified 157 years ago, enshrining the rights to Equal Protection for citizens born or naturalized in the U.S. and Due Process for all in law.
Today, the Trump Administration is attacking these rights. I will continue to stand up for the rule of law.
Adding more than $3 trillion to the deficit will increase interest rates and inflation which will have devastating impacts to small businesses across America.

Tune in on WURD to hear me discuss the impacts of OBBBA with Solomon Jones!

Another arbitrary and capricious decision by the Trump White House has abruptly blocked millions of dollars promised to PA schools.

Today on @whyy.org 's Studio 2, @cherrigregg.bsky.social asked me what parts of OBBBA will hurt Pennsylvanians the most.
Let me count the ways:

Trump Administration last week: Tore Medicaid and SNAP away from millions of Americans.
Trump Administration this week: Gutting 30,000 VA staff making it harder for Veterans to receive the benefits they need.
The destruction and loss of life in Central Texas are heartbreaking.
My thoughts are with those recovering, grieving, and searching for their loved ones, and with our brave first responders as they continue to search for those who are still unaccounted for.
The answer is no.
Plain, clear, and simple: OBBB does not eliminate taxes on social security.
Anyone who says it does is lying.
White House blocked funding for after-school and summer programs, the day before funds were to be sent - this hurts poor kids the most.

Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸
For 249 years, Americans have fought to advance freedom, opportunity, and equality for all - to form a more perfect union.
Attempts to sell out our hard-won freedoms will always fail. We will never stop fighting to make the American Dream a reality for all.
