Today on the Senate floor:
Democrats made an offer to Republicans to re-open the government and extend the ACA tax credits for one year.
We’re calling their bluff.
The ball is in their court.

Earlier this month, we announced $18 million in grants and donations to help fight hunger across North Carolina. More organizations have stepped up to donate nearly $4 million more to make sure families can put food on the table.

They could call it "The Pedolands"
President Trump would like the Commanders’ new stadium named after him, though no formal talks have occurred, ESPN reported. Trump will be in attendance at the team’s game on Sunday — the Commanders expect the topic may arise during his visit.
Trump Stadium, home of the Commanders? The president is not opposed.
No formal conversations on naming rights for the Commanders’ new D.C. home have been held.

This is the food distribution line at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas 11/7/25. This is what Trump doesn't want you to see.

At exit polls, voters said their top two issues were affordability and healthcare.
In the last month:
✅ Gov. Stein has already wiped out $6.5B in medical debt for NC
✅ He secured $18M for food banks statewide
✅ And Jeff Jackson fought to unlock SNAP funding held at the USDA

We asked readers whether young Americans today can still have a better life than their parents. They responded with stories of economic hardship and growing disillusionment with leaders in Washington. n.pr/43EXSnX
The American dream feels impossible for many young voters, who see no political fix

3 things happening at once:
1. They are learning the ACA coverage they enjoyed was always OBAMACARE. The very insurance they voted to end.
2. They are learning they, rural whites, are the demographic MOST RELIANT on government aid.
3. They are learning it’s the GOP’s fault for the shutdown.

Cost to fund SNAP and keep 42 million people from starving:
$100 billion
Cost of lost revenue due to tax cuts for the richest Americans in the top 1%:
$100 billion
One is decried as "welfare." One is not.
