Under Trump's new rules, veterans can be refused care by individual doctors just because they are unmarried, are registered Democrats, or identify as LGBTQ.
VA is for ALL veterans, not just whoever Trump says.
Every Senator needs to demand that this policy be reversed.

Tonight, I introduced legislation to stop Trump from from leading us into an illegal war with Iran.
Another war in the Middle East could cost countless lives, waste trillions more dollars, and lead to even more deaths, more conflict, and more displacement.

This entire story is made up. It's straight Russian propaganda with zero basis in reality.
Trump repeats the blatant lie today that Russia has a Ukrainian army surrounded in Kursk, but claims he is going to save them when he talks to Putin tomorrow. Trump will be the hero of Putin’s made-up story.

What Trump Means by ‘Impartial Justice’
The president’s definition of law and order is a narrow one.

Shorn of the legalities, the Admin basic position is that we can do whatever we want if we say it's national security (and that includes Trump lies about same, which can't be questioned) and we don't have to tell court or anyone why.
That's tyranny, plain and simple.

Just today, Trump taunted one ally with soaring tariffs, mused about annexing another, and threatened a third's sovereignty—all while pulling his punches on Russia. @jonlemire.bsky.social on how the president continues to flip U.S. foreign policy on its head:
Trump Is Being Nicer to America’s Foes Than to Its Friends
The president threatened allies with an invasion and hit them with tariffs. For Putin, he had only praise.
