Donald Trump is giving $20 billion of taxpayer money to Argentina – to help his political ally stay in power and bail out Wall Street hedge funds – while Americans at home can't afford health care or groceries.

In the face of mass illegal firings & efforts to “traumatize” them, federal workers aren’t backing down—and we’re with them all the way.

Trump & Vought—stop attacking American civil servants. Join with us to cancel your devastating health care cuts and to reopen government.

Good morning.

Democrats have no obligation to vote for a budget that funds corruption and totalitarianism.

Trump is willing to do whatever it takes to destroy our democracy and pad the pockets of billionaires.

People don't want Democrats to wilt. They want us to fight.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Some families in America are on track to pay over $22,000 more per YEAR for their health insurance.

Where are their Republican senators?
Three panels of Senator Elizabeth Warren saying: Thanks to Republicans in Congress, a 60-year-old couple making $85k/year will have to pay over $22,000 more EVERY YEAR to keep their coverage. TWENTY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS. For families already hanging on by their fingernails, that could be a matter of life and death.

Monopoly and totalitarianism go hand in hand.

The only way to stop the growing censorship of Trump's critics is to fight the consolidation of media outlets into the hands of a few families that do not care about the best interests of the country.
