This flailing shows how unprepared the GOP is to be the dog that caught the car.

Tens of millions of Americans are about to see their already too-expensive health insurance rates skyrocket. Millions will end up with no coverage—all thanks to the GOP, who, meanwhile, gave billionaires more tax cuts.

Republicans had over 8 years to come up with a better healthcare plan than the ACA.
Due to their incompetence they are putting millions of Americans health and wealth on the line.
They still get free healthcare at our expense.

THE AMERICAN WORKER IS ALL OF US. Black, white, Latino, Asian, Native, immigrant, union or not. Not the “working class” stereotype.

We built this country. We keep it running. Stop dividing. Start recognizing.

Trump is going to pay farmers with our tax dollars to let soy beans rot because he destroyed their markets.
Trump: We are going to be giving and providing it to the farmers in economic assistance. Farmers like me based on voting trends. So we are going to use that money to provide $12 billion in economic assistance to American farmers. $12 billion is a lot of money

A big sign that Trump’s bullying tactics don’t work. China’s trade surplus topped $1 trillion for the first time ever, driven by a strong rebound in exports despite weak domestic demand.

US shipments plunged 29% under Trump’s tariffs while exports to Southeast Asia and Europe surged. (FT)

As with everything he says, this is wildly uninformed. Formula keeps getting better and saves lives. And modern research indicates that outcomes are roughly the same. There are reasons to breastfeed but your child isn’t suffering if you don’t
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."
