He looks terrible. You’d think after all the Biden health accusations, the GOP would want to know what was wrong with Trump.
But nah, crickets.

I’m not running for Congress for any reason other than making change.
Donald Trump can go on TV and call America affordable. We know it’s a damn lie.
I believe we can rebuild the American Dream of homeownership, financial security, and building real wealth that you can pass down to your children. But it starts by being honest about the state of our country.

ICE is lawless and out of control.
Rep. Adelita Grijalva says she was pepper sprayed "in the face" & "pushed around" by ICE officers during a raid in Tucson.
"I literally was not being aggressive, I was asking for clarification, which is my right as a member of Congress."
DHS denying it.

Here’s the thing about people my age: I thought I was going to finally start to be able to save up for retirement. Almost all my kids are grown. But that’s not how it’s working out. We still have to support our kids who did everything right (college, apprenticeships) because nothing is affordable.

Delayed tariff impact starting to hit, could cause companies to reduce head count in 2026
President Trump's tariffs, aimed at reshoring American jobs lost to overseas manufacturing, could end up lowering head count instead

Hegseth, with White House help, tries to distance himself from boat strike fallout
As Congress vows accountability, the Trump administration emphasized it was a top military commander — not the defense secretary — who directed the engagement.
