There are 25+ million uninsured Americans RIGHT NOW. Republicans’ answer is to cut 300,000 MORE from coverage to fund bombs over Iran. No debate. No vote. Just cuts. This must be stopped. #FundHealthcareNotWar

15 4

The US spends $886 billion a year on defense. We can’t find money for universal healthcare. 68 million Americans are uninsured or underinsured. This is a priorities problem. Republicans chose bombs over your body. Hold them accountable. #FundHealthcareNotWar

Sen. Warnock is right: Republicans found $200 billion for a war in Iran overnight. But for 25 million uninsured Americans? Nothing. No urgency. No bill. No vote. They fund what they value. And they just told you exactly what that is. #FundHealthcareNotWar

Mexico guaranteed healthcare for 130 million people by 2028. Canada’s had it for years. The United States, wealthiest nation on Earth, just left a 48-year-old uninsured for the first time in her life. But the House is voting on war powers today. Priorities #FundHealthcareNotWar

Sen. Ossoff: Trump said he’d put America First. Now he says funding Medicaid is not possible but war always is. Premiums are up. Hospitals are closing. Soldiers are dying. The First Family is getting richer. Today’s war powers vote is your chance to say enough. #FundHealthcareNotWar

Republicans want to cut YOUR healthcare to pay for a war in Iran that nobody asked for and nobody voted for. 300,000 Americans will lose coverage so bombs can fly. Bombs over benefits. That’s the GOP budget. #FundHealthcareNotWar

14 13

Mike Johnson bragged about “notebooks full of ideas” to improve healthcare. Axios revealed what was in them: strip millions of Americans of coverage to fund a war with Iran. Today the House votes on war powers. Now you know exactly what that vote means. #FundHealthcareNotWar

25 13

Trump & Hegseth want $200 BILLION for war with Iran while tens of thousands of Americans die every year because they can’t afford a doctor. Choose a side: bombs or beds, missiles or medicine. #FundHealthcareNotWar

39 21

Imagine holding your premature baby, terrified — and Medicaid is what stands between him and catastrophe. That’s Kyra’s story. Trump wants to cut that lifeline to fund his war in Iran. 💔 #FundHealthcareNotWar

Soldiers sacrifice their bodies for wars nobody wants. And back home? Everyday Americans sacrifice their health: skipping care, drowning in bills, praying they don’t get sick. A doctor is begging us to see it: we’re ALL paying for these wars with our bodies #FundHealthcareNotWar

Q: If Trump is in such perfect health, why does he keep going back for checkups? Oz: I think he likes the results. He does really well. He aces the test every single day. Really? If that is actually the case and he's in "perfect" health, why does he need checkups every single day?

11 5

Q: We've been asking why Bill Pulte is qualified to be DNI. You're a heart surgeon? Dr. Oz: Yes. Q: Would you recommend a patient go see someone who isn't? Dr. Oz: *silence*

32 15

Sen. Murphy to Mullin: Now that you are on the job, will you commit to us that DHS will follow court orders if a ruling says ICE has done something illegal? Mullin refuses to answer.

29 16

Former intel official: What is the intent of appointing Bill Pulte? If you take your number one attack dog and you put him in charge of the 17 agencies that collect the most sensitive secrets, what would that mean in the hands of someone who is known as a political targeter?

Jeffries toured Delaney Hall. Called for it to be shut down. Health inspectors blocked. The Trump regime is running a prison camp it won’t let anyone inspect. That is not an accident. That is a cover-up.

52 31

Demanding constitutional oversight, Governor Sherrill insists on closing the facility: "It must be transparent about who is being held at that facility. I'll keep pressing DHS to do better, to abide by our nation's Constitution, and to close Delaney Hall down for good."

31 15

“Canvassing is scary!” Yeah, so is fascism. If knocking doors and talking to voters feels intimidating, try living in a country where apathy wins and authoritarians smile. The scary part isn’t canvassing. It’s giving up on democracy.

33 14

American incomes are decaying. The personal savings rate has collapsed to historic lows. People aren’t spending because they’re thriving — they’re spending because they’re surviving. This isn’t sustainable. The economy is broken for working people.

8 7

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on sending troops to the Middle East: “These young people aren’t afraid. They want to fight.” He is not young. He is not going. He will not fight. He just doesn’t care.

54 30

This man is the United States Secretary of Health. He oversees your food supply, your drug safety, your public health infrastructure. And he can’t finish a sentence about medicine. “We’re working on… um… on um… on, on… on a… medicines…”

19 14

Andrew Schulz isn’t buying the spin on Trump’s “weaponization fund” — and neither should you. “We know exactly what this really is. It’s just a slush fund for him and his buddies.” A self-described political outsider. Watching another insider grift. In plain sight.

5 3

Trump won’t touch the Epstein files. The Brilliant Idiots know exactly why: “You can’t arrest yourself. There’s only one reason why he wouldn’t want this shit out. It’s because he’s implicated.” Say it louder.

21 8

Q: gov Gavin Newsom has floated this idea of a 100% state tax on money from Trump's anti-weaponization fund. Your response? Bessent uh....there's no cure for stupid. Bessent is absolutely galling in his condescension.

11 4

They clutched pearls over Dijon mustard. Over Billy Beer. Over Hunter repaying a truck loan. But Trump’s family is looting the Treasury in real time and Republicans are silent. Their selective outrage was never about ethics. It was always about power.

24 10

They took your Medicaid. Your student loans. Your food assistance. Meanwhile Trump is personally raking in billions — pardons, crypto, a ballroom, an arch. You could buy a BATTLESHIP with his grift. We’re done pretending this is normal.

28 11

Brooke Rollins stripped food benefits from 4.3 million people and told Congress she doesn’t have exact data on what happened to them. The One Big Beautiful Bill cut $186 billion from SNAP and added paperwork requirements that end benefits if you miss a deadline.

E. Jean Carroll beat Trump twice. Won $83.3M. So now his DOJ is coming for her. The same department shielding the powerful is targeting the survivor who refused to stay silent. It’s a threat. Call it out.

56 36

Oopsie! Dave McCormick (R-PA) catches himself calling it the "Trump Regime" mid-sentence. Gotta love it!

17 6

Dr. Reiner on Trump’s exam today: “If they repeat scans from the last year, that means they’re surveilling something — and that’s never been disclosed to us.” Almost 80, multiple Walter Reed visits, swollen legs. What are they hiding?

68 35

Talarico: I'm an eighth generation Texan. I've been eating barbecue since before Ken Paxton's first indictment. And if all they have on me is lying about me being a vegan, I feel pretty good about our chances this November, I feel pretty good about our chances this November.

"Never in my wildest imagination did I think I would be called in...over Memorial Day weekend & have to argue that military members...deserve to have their votes counted after they already cast their ballots." SC Sen. Ed Sutton #VoteEarlySC social.demcast.com/s/IyqYE3B7

AOC: This is the current drinking water in Morgan County, GA, right after a Meta data center was constructed. The only difference between the clean water and this was tat data center. This is what the drinking water now looks like next to that data center.

23 11

Noah Wyle: "Congress-pass healthcare workers' tax credit. Medicine is hard enough with the staffing ratio and decades old tuition bills." We must support those whose calling in life is to serve those in need. Their life's mission is to help us. Now, it's our turn to help them.

50 20

There is so much poetry in Stephen Colbert celebrating his finale on the exact stage where the Beatles changed culture in 1964. Singing "Hello Goodbye" surrounded by his family, band, and crew before Paul McCartney flipped the final power switch. The perfect full-circle goodbye!

51 12

Even Fox News admits Ken Paxton is an "extremely flawed candidate" and "the worst is yet to come." If even their own cheerleaders see how utterly compromised their lineup is, it must be bad. But please, tell us more about how they are the party of law and order.

Across the country, Democrats are delivering major election wins at every level. Republicans are afraid - and they should be. It's clear as day: Democrats WILL take back the country in 2026, and deliver a better future for American families.

"I suspect this is going to become a very significant pandemic," warns experts on the Ebola outbreak, noting it will likely "leak into Tanzania... maybe leak into Rwanda." It’s going to be "very disruptive," and we are completely unprepared because we refuse to fund global health.

12 8

A reporter asked about progress reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and Marco Rubio replied, "It would be pretty ambitious to be able to open the Straits at this meeting here." Imagine thinking that doing your actual job at a major global summit is just too ambitious for you.

21 9

Tulsi Gabbard is resigning effective June 30th due to family health issues. It is incredibly frustrating that our vital national security has been treated like a revolving door for unqualified puppets, leaving us to clean up yet another mess. What an absolute joke.

Hegseth invokes Charlie Kirk at West Point graduation: "Last, and most importantly, seek God. As Charlie Kirk often said ... " Says the person who removed all traces of female and people of color info from the website at Arlington National Cemetery. How “godly” of him. 😡

15 6

Trump brushed off his own son's wedding by saying "I'm going to try and make it" because of "Iran and other things." Then he calls his own flesh and blood "a person I've known for a long time." Imagine being such a soulless lizard that you talk about your child like an old coworker.

Here's our 'stable genius,' at it again. "Nobody actually thought of it until it was mentioned this morning. You have stores closing down in areas where they're not going to have a store anymore." Brilliant, just brilliant Donnie.

Sleepy Donnie seems unable to resist the soporific powers of Lee Zeldin as Zeldin drones on. Who needs sleeping pills, eh Donnie?

Sen Murray: How do you justify cutting NIH by billions to send half a trillion more to the Pentagon? Bhattacharya: The budget...uh....is obviously a bigger problem... Sen. Murray: You didn't really answer the question. I know why.

12 6

GOP Sen. Thom Tillis calls the new Trump/DOJ $1.776 Bn slush fund "stupid on stilts." "These people assaulted police officers, admitted their guilt, were convicted. Now we're going to pay them for that?!?!" He calls it what it is: "tyranny."

30 12

Springsteen to Colbert: "You're the first guy in America to lose his show because we got a president who can't take a joke...and because Larry & David Ellison feel they need to kiss his ass. These are small minded people with no idea about the freedoms of this beautiful country."

24 8

James Comey claims his goal was to "stay out of politics" but breaking the 60-day rule to drop a vague letter 11 days before the election did the exact opposite. Violating DOJ policy isn’t a neutral act; it actively altered American history and we are still paying the price.

12 3

Trump admits he doesn't think about our economy, and Lindsey Graham cheers it on as his Churchill moment. Graham actually declared that whatever price we have to pay, we will pay. They will gladly watch your cost of living skyrocket to play out their military fantasies.

14 9

Harrison Ford is fueling the fire for the next generation of graduates: "Your generation has far more power than you may realize." When you find your voice, stand up for others, and fight for what's right, the world cannot ignore you. Believe in your power and lead the way.

23 4

Massie’s bill exposed 2 dozen CEOs and world leaders in 6 months. He had 7 months left, so the GOP panicked, blasted voters with fake AI deepfakes to destroy his credibility, and shut him down. They are actively protecting the worst monsters on earth, and they just proved it.

RFKjr. has no business dispensing medical advice. He has no education, no training, and no business advising you on how to manage your health.

Brooke Rollins claims that beef prices are high because MAHA is causing people to eat more beef. Apparently, she doesn't see the connection between the Iran war, the high cost of oil and the subsequent high cost of all goods and services.

Trump says his $1.776 Bn weaponization slush fund is "peanuts" compared to what ths rioting January 6th insurrectionists actually faced.

16 7

Trump: "We lost 13 people. In other wars, you lost hundreds of thousands of people. I get a kick when I look at somebody on television and they say, 'he's lost 13 people.'" Trump's utter disregard for the value of human life is a disgrace for any person, let alone a president of the US.

1,462 463

Trump/DOJ secret "release of claims:" Waives all claims against Trump by the US. Trump, family & businesses cannot be investigated, audited or sued by US government including all US agencies FOREVER, even after he leaves office. It forfeits our rights, money & democracy.

19 12

Dem's put forth amendment prohibiting use of taxpayer funds to pay out Trump lawsuit settlements. Dem's blast Trump use of taxpayer money to pay off Capitol Hill rioters calling it a profound abuse of taxpayers' funds. "This is a slush fund for Trump's political allies."

411 172

Trump announces purge of DOJ and FBI officials deemed disloyal. Trump: "We will seek out any disloyal DOJ/FBI officials and get rid of them. They're scum. You have scum in any agency. We will prevail." We have “scum” in the current administration.

"Every Alaskan I have ever known deeply understands the importance of making sure our kids and grandkids have the same kind of abundance that we had. I'm in this fight because I know we get back there if we all work together."

10 10

Sen. Van Hollen: Can I ask you to commit that the Justice Department will not pardon anyone named in the Epstein files? Actin AG Blanche: *Avoids question*

20 16

Sen. Reed: When Trump first announced this lawsuit, he said, 'I think I'll give the money to charity.' Will you fulfill Trump's wish that the money goes to respected charities? Blanche: That's not ultimately what the settlement calls for.

11 10

Trump's self congratulatory rant about Reflecting 'Lake.' He brags about how "I'm doing a great job. I've upgraded it like you wouldn't believe. It's going to be beautiful. It's going to be waterproof. It's going to be reflecting." Water is going to be "waterproof?" This would be humorous…if only..

20 8

Acting AG Todd Blanche throws a fit: "I'm the acting AG, okay? The fact that I used to be Trump's lawyer is just a fact." Gee, does someone need a juice box and a nap?!

8 6

While working families struggle, JD Vance is using the White House briefing room to play victim for J6 insurrectionists, lamenting that they don't get an "ounce of sympathy." Sorry, we aren't crying for the crowd that attacked police and smashed windows to stop a vote, JD.

17 14

Americans: "We can’t afford groceries or gas." JD Vance: "A $1.8 BILLION DOJ fund sounds pretty reasonable to me." You're sacrificing every day just to get by, but Vance thinks billions of your tax dollars disappear into a government fund "very reasonably." Unbelievable.

13 11

Speaker Mike Johnson in his own words: "If we lost the majority, it would be the end of the Trump presidency."

128 36

Sen Mark Kelly destroys Trump & Hegseth. They're trying to avoid accountability. What did we get out of this? 15K strikes, 13 Americans dead, 165 children dead. Strait of Hormuz closed. Gas prices rising. We have an incompetent Secr. of Defense who has no idea what he's doing.

Good news from Rep Shontel 'Brown. Congrats to the 25-26 OH-11 Youth Advisory Council! This weekend, we celebrated these students as they delivered their capstone presentations on key issues that matter to them. It's inspiring to see the next generation step forward,
