Removing signs in National Parks telling stories of slavery, climate change, Japanese American detention, and conflicts with Native Americans doesn’t make America great…     It just proves how afraid Trump is of the truth.

The National Park Service has removed signs that make reference to climate change amid the Trump administration’s wider effort to remove information that it says undermines “the remarkable achievements of the United States.”

Can think of a lot of hospitals, schools and food pantries that could use twenty billion dollars to actually help our own citizens…

Donald Trump wants to lend $20 billion of our money to bail out a political ally and his global investors before an election. Oh, and Argentina just struck a major deal with China that crushes American soybean farmers already suffering from Trump's tariffs. “America First.”
Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govSep 25(source)
Instead of negotiating, the Trump admin is trying a different strategy: threaten to do something they’re already doing. While Republicans play games with federal workers’ lives, Democrats are fighting to restore health care for millions of Americans. We are not the same.
White House begins plan for mass firings if there’s a government shutdown
The Office of Management and Budget sent a memo to federal agencies Wednesday night instructing them to plan for staff reductions, including firings.

The Trump administration is rejecting help from experts - our doctors, nurses and scientists - opting instead to make medical recommendations based on no evidence at all. RFK Jr was never going to make America healthier, but now it’s clear how harmful his recklessness could be.

As we continue to monitor the situation in Dallas, my prayers are with the victims, families, and first responders affected by this tragedy. We should not - and cannot - be a nation in which scores are settled with shootings and those we disagree with are targets for violence.

My office is Delawareans’ gateway to many of the public services they rely on. Today, I was proud to help connect our communities with these services at my Third Annual Constituent Resource Fair. Thanks to everyone who came out and made this event such a success!

Your Big Ugly Bill imposed the largest cuts to health care in U.S. history, including over $900 billion in Medicaid cuts. Rural hospitals are already shutting down and reducing services as a result. Tell Trump to stop hiding behind Truth Social and sit down with Democrats.
Senate Republicans @SenateGOP (https://x.com/SenateGOP)Democrats voted to cut $50B from rural hospitals last week, so we know they don’t actually care about access to health care. They just want to fight the President, even if they shut down the government in the process. Quote Ed Markey @SenMarkey · 3h TACO Tuesday in the Trump White House. Trump refuses to even sit down with Democrats on health care and lowering costs.

Health care. We want families to have health care. When Trump rants about how "unreasonable" this is, remember that he decimated Medicaid— To gift-wrap tax cuts for his Mar-a-Lago pals. And instead of helping us fix the crisis he created, Trump is shutting down the government.
Trump Truth Social post cancelling a meeting with Leaders Schumer and Jeffries to discuss the government funding deadline.

Up and down our state, I'm hearing from people and organizations alike who are worried about the impact of Republicans' health care cuts. @democrats.senate.gov aren't going to stand by while this administration makes people sicker and poorer.

It's the first day of fall, and Trump is celebrating by taxing YOUR morning cup of coffee by an average of almost 15%. Leaves might be falling, but thanks to this reckless trade war, coffee prices are rising. It's time Republicans join Democrats to END these idiotic tariffs.
Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester@bluntrochester.senate.govSep 22(source)
It’s alarming that in the same weekend the president says he ‘hates’ his political opponents, we also learned he's trying to use the DOJ to baselessly prosecute them. This is an outrageous abuse of power- we need a president who serves us all, not just his supporters.
