What a joke! Trump’s “Chicago in chaos” video seems to have more footage from Florida, Texas, South Carolina, Nebraska, California and Arizona than from Chicago. And many of the Chicago clips are 8 months old. The mendacity of this Administration knows no bounds. #Chicago #TrumpIsALiar

It’s just bonkers. Trump’s policies are hurting our farmers, and his only solution is to give them taxpayer bailouts. How about not harming farmers and other rural Americans in the first place? Let’s turn Iowa blue (or at least purple) again!

MAGA policies have shafted rural voters bigly - from tariffs, inflation & cuts to health care, SNAP, and public broadcasting, etc! Gives us opportunity to build infrastructure in these key States for 2026 wins.

Trump doesn’t give a lick about most Americans…unless you’re a billionaire, of course. Sadly, his MAGA faithful just don’t see it — until they do.

Democrats want to restore vital healthcare support, that was scrapped by the Greedy Billionaire, Big Ugly Bill. But Trump loves chaos, hoping to DISTRACT AND CONCEAL HIS WEAKNESS. So he puts more needed government services on the chopping block, by causing a government shut down.

Goodbye #MondayNightFootball. It was fun while it lasted.

And here in DC, the ABC affiliate (WJLA & NewsChannel 8) are owned by the equally offensive Sinclair Broadcasting, which demanded ABC cancel Kimmel. Yet another reason to join to not tune in.

The 10 richest Americans added $365 BILLION (untaxed) to their wealth in just one year. Meanwhile, tens of thousands are losing jobs, prices are climbing from tariffs, tourism is collapsing, and allies are turning away.

Are we winning yet?
