We’ve had people from the U.S. and abroad asking whether the information on the White House website is even accurate anymore. The site has become unreliable, filled with blatantly false and deliberately misleading content.

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.
Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

Donald Trump is telling the Republicans to "get tougher."
Get tougher on who? The woman with malignant melanoma?
Because he sure as hell isn't getting tougher on the billionaires he invited to his Great Gatsby party.

Today enrollment for health insurance opens and millions of Americans including breast cancer survivors will see their premiums double.
The President needs to come to the table and work with us to extend the health care tax credits so Americans don’t lose their care.

We aren’t even one year into his presidency, and all of Trump’s most damaging promises have been kept.
