There are two kinds of people: those who roll up their sleeves and do the hard work, and those who sit back and take credit for others' work. Trump is always in the second group.

Many Americans still don't understand that U.S. businesses and consumers pay for Trump's tariffs - not the countries from which goods are imported. Trump's tariffs are a sales tax that will hurt small businesses and working families.

The Republican BBB will decimate health care for children, seniors, and veterans by slashing Medicaid and other programs, adding $3.3 trillion to the U.S. debt, all to fund tax cuts for the wealthy. Meanwhile, Trump has shifted thousands of federal agents and the military to immigration enforcement.

ICE just abducted a leading contender for the New York City mayorship for asking to see a warrant.

I need everyone to understand that they are not a law enforcement agency — they are Donald Trump’s secret police.

Ever notice how those who view everything as a transaction struggle with moral conviction? MAGA assumes protests are funded by some hidden source, unable to grasp that genuine compassion, not profit, drives decent people. It's called empathy, not a paycheck.

The Senator was in the building for official business. The FBI Police knew who he was and where he was. Any other message is pure spin.

Under Trump's direction, Republicans are stripping health care from millions of Americans, including cancer patients, to deliver even more tax breaks to billionaires! We must fight back and let them know we won't let them do it!

In blind support of Pete Hegseth, Sen. Markwayne Mullin says that he will "lead the breach," "lay down cover fire," "take the high ground" in the line of "enemy fire." It's worth noting that Markwayne avoided military service when the U.S. was engaged in two wars, yet now he wants to play soldier.
