The Republican playbook is simply lie, gaslight, repeat.
No amount of lying will change the reality that, because of their votes, hospitals will close and people are going to die without care.

I wrote my latest Substack on why so many of my Republican colleagues fall in line behind Trump, even when they disparage and mock him when the cameras aren’t around.
Read my thoughts: open.substack.com/pub/beccabal...
This is one of those meetings that could be an email. Release the Epstein files. Pretty simple, no discussion needed.
The latest jobs report is…very bad.
July: 73,000
June: 14,000
May: 19,000
This is the worst economic jobs report since mass layoffs during COVID.
$150B that ***Americans*** paid.
Why would we thank him?
The Trump administration shut down Direct File, a popular program that allowed millions of people to file their taxes for free, directly with the IRS.
Why?
Trump wants huge corporations like TurboTax and their CEOs to get richer and richer by ripping working class people off.
A country where one person can become this rich should have zero homelessness, zero hunger, and the best education.
Our current reality is not normal. We do not have to accept it.
The Netanyahu government continues to engage in unjustifiable atrocities — babies are starving. I won't be complicit in the horrors only to benefit Netanyahu’s political ambitions rather than find peace. Feed Gaza now.
The United States Post Office turns 250 today. Rural communities *need* the post office to pay their bills, get medication prescriptions, and stay connected with loved ones. We cannot live without it and we need to make sure it is strengthened for decades to come.

Release the Epstein files.
It's been reported that Trump has plans to erase the bedrock scientific finding that greenhouse-gas emissions, causing global warming, threaten human life.
This lays the foundation to roll back any and all progress this country has made to fight climate change.
The federal minimum wage has been $7.25 for 16 years now. Let's be honest, no one can live off of that. We need livable wages now.
Honored to meet with Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia student who was unlawfully jailed by the Trump administration and missed the birth of his first child.
This administration has no regard for free speech. Being thrown in jail for protesting is the definition of authoritarianism.
Yesterday, Wilmer Chavarria, a Vermonter & US Citizen, was held and interrogated for hours in the Houston airport by CBP agents.
He's a school superintendent. So don’t try to tell us this is about removing violent criminals. This is how they use psychological terror to intimidate us into silence.
Mike Johnson has cancelled votes in the House, and Congress will not be back until September. All to avoid a vote on the Epstein files and hide Trump's involvement with Jeffrey Epstein.
Reposted byRepresentative Becca Balint
On today's Democratic Daily Download, @balint.house.gov explains how Republicans' Big, Ugly Law is a betrayal of hardworking Americans that will hit rural America especially hard.
Giant corporations like UnitedHealth have ballooned profits while buying up competition. Decades of monopolistic behavior has led to one unmanageable mess for patients and families.
In the middle of the night, Republicans jammed through $9 billion in cuts to public media and humanitarian aid.
Millions of Americans rely on public TV and radio for free and factual news and lifesaving emergency alerts.
Rural communities suffer while the rich get richer.
