Calling for gas chambers. Expressing love for Hitler. Endorsing rape. Using racist slurs.

I'm demanding Rep. James Comer open a House Oversight Committee investigation into these shocking, deeply offensive messages that were exchanged by Young Republican leaders from across the country.

First, Republicans passed the largest health care cut in history, gutting Medicaid and putting hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes across states at risk of closure.

Then, they shut down the government rather than work with Democrats to fix it.

Every day of the Trump Shutdown is hurting families.

Crime is down in San Francisco thanks to California Highway Patrol's ongoing efforts with local partners to seize illicit drugs and remove firearms from our streets.

With strong state investments and community partnerships, our work to make our neighborhoods safer and more secure is paying off.

Donald Trump has been firing people who protect your health, safety and pocketbook, and who keep our country safe.

The shutdown is just his latest excuse for these purges.

The President’s authorities under Article II are limited to responding to an armed attack/the threat of one and do not apply here.

These continued strikes — 27 killed to date — risk getting the U.S. into a full fledged war.

Meiselas: MAGA Mike Johnson was being questioned about the shutdown during this disastrous press conference he held. He literally says, “I don’t have any strategy." Then Rep. Lisa McClain jumps in, apparently realizing Mike Johnson had just blown it and she completely unravels on camera.
