This is political vandalism. Taking a wrecking ball to federal agencies does nothing to make government more efficient but it is already doing grave damage to people and programs throughout the country.

It bears repeating that one of the first things Trump did after taking office was to pardon rioters who **assaulted and bloodied police officers**

Today marks the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, a decision that once safeguarded Americans' right to choose.

Here in Maryland, we remain steadfast in protecting reproductive freedom, and days ago, I formally certified the state’s constitutional amendment enshrining abortion as a fundamental right.

Diseases and health risks don’t take breaks during presidential transitions. Preventing health agencies from communicating with the public is flat out dangerous.

It's no accident that Trump talked about a new "golden age" with the billionaires sitting in the front row.
 
He wants it for THEM — not for working people.

Pete Hegseth is unqualified and unfit to lead the Department of Defense. These latest sworn statements are further evidence of disturbing and outrageous conduct.

Is this really who Republicans want to entrust with the lives of our men and women in uniform?
