Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in modern history.

From taking a $400 million jet to selling his own crypto to donors, he is using the presidency to make himself richer every single day.

To those few who spend your days reply-guying things that you think are clever, tearing down anything Dems say or do, maybe go to a protest or organize something. Just go do something useful. You are spending too much time online. There are constructive things you could be doing. Just sayin’.

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.

And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

This is not about politics. It's about people.

Let’s break it down:

Calling all overseas Pennsylvania voters! This is your reminder to fill out your Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) now. Filling out this form annually allows you to receive your ballots and vote in any special elections that may occur. Head on over to votefromabroad.org to request your ballot!
A graphic encourages Pennsylvania voters living abroad to complete their FPCA form. The top shows a photo of the Philadelphia skyline at sunset beside a bridge, with large text reading “PA VOTERS ABROAD!” Below, blue and white text says “Fill out your FPCA now! This ensures that you can vote in your election in 2025,” with icons of a postcard, an arrow, and a ballot box. The bottom banner includes the Democrats Abroad logo and VoteFromAbroad.org.

Whether it's Republicans flagrantly abusing Articles One and Two of the Constitution or Democrats being bad at messaging, both parties are pushing America to the brink.

Are these shutdown attacks on Democrats from the White House and federal agencies against the law?

YES, because of the Hatch Act. Learn more about the act, and how the Trump administration is violating it!

We believe healthcare is a right for every American.

But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies.

Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: If we do not make changes and fight back effectively, you're going to see 15 million Americans lose their health insurance through the cuts in Medicaid and the ACA. That's what's at stake.

Voting from abroad can have its challenges, but #USExpats face more voting uncertainty than usual, as Republicans continue a push for more restrictions on overseas voters, including US military and families stationed abroad.

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files.

My team has now filed motions to defend voters in 7 of those cases in ME, MI, MN, NH, NY, OR and PA.

I suggest that DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining one in CA.
