Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

The department of Health and Human Services terminated several multi-million-dollar grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics following their criticisms of Robert F Kennedy Jr’s policies.

The Trump administration's war on children was just ratcheted up another notch. But, sure, America First.

Warnock: He's got a lot of nerve saying that I'm using faith to divide people. This is a man who literally had protesters gassed and beaten down so he could hold up a bible in front of a church.

I consider myself a fairly patient person, but I can't listen to another second of this ridiculous, wheezing idiot. I'm done. Nothing he is saying aligns with anything that is really happening in the real world.

My health insurer just notified me that they have turned off automatic billing "due to the potential increase to your monthly premium" to avoid an automatic withdrawal that is much higher than my current year premium payment.

218 members signed the discharge petition to force a vote to extend ACA tax credits.

If Speaker Johnson refuses to bring forth the vote, he’s telling the American people loud and clear that rising health care costs are acceptable to him.

Last night, Democrat Gary Clemons won the special election for Kentucky Senate District 37 by a 47 point margin. Democrats have now won or overperformed in 227 of 255 key elections this year - nearly 90%.

Democratic enthusiasm wins elections, especially when Republican failures make it so easy.

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.

For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.

Let’s change that. One election at a time.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.
