Americans are facing rising housing, utility, grocery, and health care prices. What are Congressional Republicans focused on this week? Funding President Trump’s billion-dollar ballroom.

Reverend Dr. Anthony Paulson wrote to me about his parishioners in Southern Illinois who are suffering under higher prices. People like him are always on my mind when issues of affordability arise, but are being ignored by this President.

According to the Institute on Taxation & Economic Policy, some of the largest corporations—including Tesla, Coinbase, & Palantir—paid $0 in federal income tax because of Republican’s “Big Beautiful Bill.” Why are mega corporations evading billions in taxes while families pay more for necessities?

Five days, five different explanations for why President Trump bombed Iran. The only thing that is clear is that this Administration seems to have no plan or strategy.

The El Gamal family may have been freed, but the conditions at the Dilley family detention facility have not changed. The Trump Administration’s cruel detention of families must end.

While there has been bipartisan agreement on halting Iran’s nuclear program, There is no consensus for a war with Iran. The President’s impulsive strikes risk American servicemembers’ lives and endanger our allies.

The price of coffee, ground beef, and so many other groceries is through the roof because of Trump’s tariff tax. His economic policies are creating hardship and stress for millions of Americans.

President Trump’s constant impulsiveness is something we’ve come to expect from him. But his instability poses real risks to America’s economy and our service members abroad.

The President and his family don’t even try to hide their corruption. Last year alone, they made at least $1.4 billion through backroom deals and legal threats. And the American people are fed up.

Just one week after tobacco giant Reynolds donated $5 million to MAGA Inc. and dined with Trump at his golf club, President Trump directed FDA to authorize the sale of flavored vapes. This corruption is poisoning our kids and unleashing a new wave of addiction on America.

Are all religions really the same? Comparing Gandhi and Khomeini shows why that claim doesn't hold up. For Christians, Jesus is the standard — and that's not a barrier to interfaith dialogue, it's what makes it honest. ⚓

Love Talarico blasting Paxton’s 'vegan' jabs with Texas BBQ: 'I’ve been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment.' Brilliant. While the GOP is morally bankrupt, Trump is still the only one who survives being an unabashed criminal. Paxton can't be the second. Texans must reject him.🤦🏾‍♂️

A lot of the hype has been about Joseph Dzierwa and JT Quinn, but there's another pitcher from Orioles' 2025 Draft class off to a strong start. LHP Caden Hunter (6th-rounder) had 9 K's in 4 innings of 1-run ball today for Single-A Delmarva. The 22-year-old has a 1.17 ERA in 6 games.
