This is what “government efficiency” looks like: paying for thousands of tons of food to rot on docks overseas.
USAID was saving lives. Trump, Musk, and DOGE are letting people starve.

For once, I actually agree with RFK Jr.
But shouldn’t the nation’s top healthcare official be someone we can take medical advice from?
.0018% odds that a Social Security claim is “likely fraudulent.” We literally have a better chance of getting hit by an asteroid.
So why are Republicans letting Trump, Musk, and DOGE destroy Social Security over it?
Due process isn’t just for undocumented immigrants. It’s for stopping US citizens from being deported. It’s for you.
Trump’s efforts to attack due process for deportations should alarm every one of us.

This would be a problem if the president read his daily intelligence brief (he doesn’t). www.nytimes.com/2025/05/14/u...
What did we get from Trump's "deal" with China? We still have the highest tariffs on imports since the 1930s, costing families thousands of dollars a year for everyday purchases—and that's before his full tariffs kick back in.
Trump's ego won this deal. Americans lost it.
Ahead of Trump’s Middle East trip, half my Senate Democrat colleagues joined me in urging him to secure a new ceasefire and restart the flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza. Hamas must be destroyed, but a full reoccupation of Gaza would be a disaster for Israelis and Palestinians.
Republicans just proposed a budget that would kick nearly 14 million Americans off their health insurance––just to fund another massive tax break for billionaires. They're not looking out for you.
Trump’s new Social Security Administrator, Frank Bisignano, supports Trump's and Musk's plans to destroy Social Security.
Is it too much too ask that someone in the administration stand with hard-working families and support our seniors?
The Trojan Horse was a gift, too.
President Trump & Elon Musk: Don’t take America out of AmeriCorps. The richest men on the planet shouldn’t be focused on dismantling services for the most vulnerable of our neighbors. I’ll keep standing up in the Senate for these programs because they make our country and its people better.
Let's be clear about what we've seen in the last 24 hours: Republicans are OK with Trump getting a $400 million jet from the Emir of Qatar, but they don't have any issues with kicking 8.6 million Americans off their health insurance.
Accepting a $400 million plane from the Emir of Qatar is an appalling decision by Trump.
He doesn’t care about corruption.
He doesn’t care about the law.
He doesn’t care about our national security.
He doesn’t care about you.
He only cares about himself.
Happy Mother’s Day! I'm grateful for my mother, Sally, and everything she did for my brothers and me, and for our whole family
To my wife, Annie–your compassion and strength make me better every day. Our children and I are blessed to have your presence guiding our family.
Last year, Colombia was one of our strongest partners in our hemisphere. Now, they're throwing their lot in with China.
What a complete foreign policy failure by President Trump. www.france24.com/en/live-news...
As Trump prepares to go to the Middle East next week, I led 25 of my colleagues in a simple message to him: push to resume the flow of aid, get them back to the negotiating table and end this crisis.

When Trump took office, there was a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, hostages were being released, and aid was getting into Gaza. Now, none of that is true. The blockage of aid is causing a humanitarian crisis in Gaza and Israel is readying a long-term occupation of the Strip.
Carla Hayden has been a qualified, capable, and inspiring leader of the Library of Congress for nearly nine years. The president shouldn’t have a say over who Congress’ librarian is.

Protecting the Delaware and Chesapeake Bays has created cleaner water, stronger economies, and healthier communities for Delmarva. Trump's mass firings at the EPA, NOAA, and USDA will undo our progress. I've demanded answers from the EPA and will secure more investment in cleaner, safer Bays.
