Should a state's federal funding be inverse to its contribution? Right now, it is. A Fair Federal Funding Act aims would correct this absurdity, where states like CA are net contributors that subsidize states with more political power but less fiscal input.

SEN. @gallego.senate.gov on the terrible Milei rock concert: “Millions of Americans are about to lose their health care and have their insurance premiums double, but Trump & Republicans are giving this idiot $20 BILLION. Good job. Way to make America First, guys.”

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.
