NEVER FORGET: In July 2025, the GOP passed the BBB with $75B in additional, multi-year funding to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

BUT the GOP Congress will NOT negotiate to EXTEND ACA Subsidies for 20M+ Americans for $32B. #GOPPriorities

The Trump admin’s USDA issued new guidance stating it will not use existing funds to cover SNAP benefits if the government shutdown extends beyond October 31. This move effectively threatens to withhold billions of dollars in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) contingency funding

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

Another case bites the dust!

Prosecutors found that James allowed a niece to live in the house rent-free in 2020. She only reported collecting $1,350 in rent money to cover utilities on her tax return.

The small sum undercuts the DOJ theory that she was using it as an investment property.
