Measles outbreaks are accelerating across the country, and the head of Health and Human Services is worried about doing pull-ups at the airport.

1 in 4 American households are living paycheck to paycheck.

And Trump gave that an A+++++

Last year, 14 million kids experienced a little holiday magic thanks to the generosity and dedication of Toys for Tots.

As a member of SVACDems and SASCDems, I'm always proud to partner with our Marine Corps as they work to ensure kids around the country have a happy holiday.

Republicans don't care about the affordability of health care (or anything else) for the American people.
December 11, 2025 at 9:40 PM
At the end of the month, when your health care premiums have skyrocketed, remember that Democrats had a plan to lower costs by extending the ACA tax credits, and Republicans refused to vote with us.

This health care crisis and its insanely high prices are all Republicans' doing.
December 11, 2025 at 7:22 PM
Republicans just voted to ensure the health care costs for millions of Americans SKYROCKET at the end of the year.

How shameful.
December 11, 2025 at 6:07 PM
Premiums are set to rise by an average of 114% at the end of the month.

Democrats have a plan to stop this from happening, but Republicans refuse to extend the ACA tax credits.

They made life cheaper for the top 1% but refuse to ensure that you can afford health care.

Shameful.

Democrats have a plan to extend the ACA tax credits and lower health care costs.

Republicans barely have concepts of a plan.

Yet, Republicans would rather your health care costs skyrocket than vote with us to stop the suffering of millions of Americans.

Trying to eliminate birthright citizenship is entirely unconstitutional and completely un-American.

Donald: Ignorance is bliss, but it doesn't pay the bills.

People are paying more for everyday goods as costs continue to skyrocket under your presidency.

By the way, Trump's tariffs are the reason these farmers need this $12 billion bailout in the first place.

Since being sworn in, Pete Hegseth has done nothing but put our national security at risk.

From unauthorized Signal chats to reckless and ill-advised policies, his incompetence jeopardizes the lives of our troops and undermines the integrity of his office.

He should resign.

This regime says they are deporting the "worst of the worst" like...U.S. citizen children with cancer.

It's total BS.

It has been 84 years since the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor.

Today, as we commemorate the lives of the over 2,000 servicemembers and civilians we lost on that solemn day, may we never stop honoring their memory, their service, and their courage.

In 26 days, Americans across the country will see their health premiums skyrocket.

This doesn't have to happen.

But time is running out for Republicans to work with Democrats to lower costs and reverse the health care crisis they created.
December 5, 2025 at 8:11 PM
This is exactly the kind of xenophobic rhetoric that is inciting hatred and racism in our country.

Just another example of this administration sowing chaos and fear into our immigrant communities. Detestable.

When he's backed into a corner, Trump lashes out.

This time, he's attacking the Somali community, painting an entire community as "garbage."

A reminder that none of this is normal. It's unhinged.

He’s “fighting crime” by pardoning former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez — who was convicted of conspiring to traffic over 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.
 
More Trump BS.
 
Something must be in it for him or his family…

ED workers know that Linda McMahon’s push to dismantle the department "makes no sense".

They know better than anyone how crucial ED programs are to our students, and are seeing firsthand how harmful this regime's attacks on ED will be to the future of our nation.

Since 1988, World AIDS Day has been a time to honor those lost to HIV/AIDS and recognize the progress made to end the epidemic.

Instead of standing with those living with HIV/AIDS, this regime has cut funding, spread stigmas, and turned a medical success into a political battle.
