As Americans face higher prices from Trump’s tariff taxes and war in Iran, GOP once again prioritize special interests over working families. I questioned the push for new crypto tax loopholes—cutting taxes for crypto firms while raising the risk of another future taxpayer bailout.
Republican Speaker Mike Johnson blames our national debt problem on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid being “mandatory spending.” He plans to put them on the chopping block next year.
November’s election will determine whether working Americans maintain retirement and health security.
Hospitalizations, difficult treatments, paralysis, death. A few of the consequences for our children as the Trump regime promotes anti-vaccine conspiracy theories.
After unlawfully imposing roughly $166 billion in tariff taxes on Americans, Trump is still fighting a court order to give the money back.
He took it. The courts said it was illegal. Now he’s trying to keep it.
Despite staunch bipartisan opposition, the Trump regime continues to quietly move forward with their plan to deface our treasured Big Bend National Park. This project will cause irreversible damage to this Texas crown jewel, all while wasting billions of taxpayer $$ on something no Texan asked for.
Republicans just passed the Big Slush Act—a slush fund for more ICE cruelty and a rubber stamp on Trump’s $1.8B taxpayer-funded slush fund to reward January 6 rioters who assaulted police. My remarks opposing:
$1.25T in credit card debt. Delinquencies at a 15-yr high. That’s what the economy looks like for a lot of Americans right now. But Kevin Hassett points to surging credit card spending as a positive. When people are going into debt to afford groceries and rent, that’s not a boom—it’s a warning sign.
Already having the disgraceful distinction of the most uninsured children in the country, new research shows the crisis is worsening in Texas.
Thanks to draconian Republican policies, even more of our youngest children under 6 have lost access to a pediatrician and other care.
Trump's decision to waive environmental protections in Big Bend National Park to build destructive technologies and roads will change the very face of the it. Texans across party lines oppose this project. These waivers seek to silence opposition and let Trump damage a true crown jewel of Texas.
