Without the extension of ACA credits, healthcare costs will increase nationwide. Wyoming will see a 693% increase, while West Virginia could see as high as 654%.

We need to make healthcare affordable, not crush Americans with high costs.

Tim Walz: "It's almost unimaginable that he's got Milei in there, giving him $20 billion, so that they can undercut us and China can buy their soybeans from them. And now China has learned they can replace our markets."

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

As Trump said, his administration "took away freedom of speech." They don't feel like they need Congress' permission, so it doesn't matter if the amendment says Congress can't make a law about it.

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

Are we, the ones I've heard have been pleading for help with no help in sight except wait, wait. Trump gave the money to Argentina but not US farmers. Vance is part of a group buying up bankrupt, foreclosed farms. They are playing the waiting game of owning everything & future profits.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

In 1968 Henry Kissinger and Nixon sabotaged the Paris Peace Talks that had a cease fire ready to be signed between NVietnam and the US for Nixon's political gain, in 2024 Trump & Netanyuhu sabotaged the Biden peace plan for Gaza for political gain. The results were additional deaths.

Let's be clear. ICE isn't protecting people against crime. ICE are violent criminals protecting billionaire felons who rape little girls.
