Why am I NOT surprised to see that House Republicans are pushing ahead with their budget plan to cut TRILLIONS from the budget at the expense of American people? CUT Medicaid, CUT food programs for our seniors and children.
They’re just looking out for their billionaire buddies.

Jeep owners are reporting pop-up ads on their dashboards.
Drivers say the ads are from Jeep, asking them if they want an extended car warranty when they come to a stop.
They close out the ads, but claim they pop up again at the next stop.
