Trump tried to punish our kids and cut billions in child care and other services simply because our state voted against him. A federal judge just blocked him. Leave our children out of political games.
CNBC: Judge blocks Trump from freezing $10 billion in child, family aid to five U.S. states
Trump isn't just driving your prices up, he's also making it harder for you to find a job. Meanwhile, he's more focused on running foreign countries than helping the middle-class families he's neglecting here at home.
2025 was the worst year for hiring since 2020, December jobs report shows
We know they can't be trusted. In Chicago, they shot a woman multiple times and charged her with assault with a deadly weapon, accusing her of being a domestic terrorist too—only to drop the charges when evidence including body camera footage contradicted their story.
One day after ICE killed a mom in Minneapolis, Trump's agents shot two more people in Portland. How does Trump and his team respond? Not remorse. Not empathy. Just declaring the cases closed before the facts come to light, then covering them up by blocking local investigators.
NEW: The Senate advanced a bipartisan resolution to block further military action in Venezuela unless authorized by Congress. Our message is clear: Trump cannot continue to march us into another forever war with no end state. Focus on running America.
This DoD review is clearly designed to shrink the number of women who bravely serve in combat roles, which would be devastating to our military readiness. Women have always made our military stronger— And they're more qualified to serve in combat than Hegseth is to be SecDef.
NPR: Pentagon will begin review of 'effectiveness' of women in ground combat positions
One of Trump’s ICE agents killed a U.S. citizen in Minneapolis. We need an immediate investigation into the ICE officer, accountability and justice. My heart goes out to the family and the people of Minnesota. ICE is clearly not making us safer. This needs to stop.
Any effort to take Greenland by force or coercion is as ridiculous as it is dangerous. It would threaten our NATO alliance and do nothing to help Americans here at home afford health insurance, groceries or child care. Trump ran on lowering costs. It’s time he acted like it.
Again and again, Trump proves he has no respect for our Constitution or the rule of law. No matter the cost. And Republicans continue to bend the knee to this wanna-be king.
The mob assaulted Capitol police officers, shouted death threats aimed at elected officials and abused American flags to lay waste to the halls of our democracy—and yet the President pardoned these traitors to our country. Many of whom have since committed additional violent crimes.
It doesn't get more wicked than this. Donald Trump is cutting $10 billion for child care and social services in Illinois and 4 other blue states. Playing politics and coming after kids because they happen to live in states that voted against him is anything but America first.
New York Times: Health Dept. to Freeze $10 Billion in Funding to 5 Democratic States

The funding pause could jeopardize child care and other programs that serve hundreds of thousands of households in California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York.
Trump promised lower costs and America first. But as healthcare and grocery bills skyrocket, he is focused on building ballrooms, renaming the Kennedy Center and literally running another country. This is not what America asked for. This is not what America deserves.
It is wildly inappropriate for the Trump Admin to go after its political critics like this—let alone heroes like Sen. Kelly. Kelly is a patriot who has always put our American democracy first and always supported our servicemembers and the rule of law. Something neither Trump or Hegseth can say.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has launched administrative action against Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly, a retired Navy captain and astronaut, which could affect Kelly's rank and retirement pay. n.pr/4pkyo7l
Trump's actions continue putting American troops, personnel and citizens at risk both in the region and around the globe. None of that serves our nation’s interests.
Maduro was unquestionably a bad actor, but no President has the authority to unilaterally decide to use force to topple a government, thrusting us and the region into uncertainty without justification, a defined end-state or a real plan for preventing the instability that could come next.
Donald Trump’s reckless and unconstitutional operations in Venezuela—including this morning’s arrest of a foreign leader—are not about enforcing law and order. If they were, he wouldn’t hide them from Congress.
This is a lie. We blocked Trump’s troop deployment to Chicago. The Supreme Court even ruled Trump would have been breaking the law had he deployed them on our streets. I’m relieved our patriotic troops are finally heading home to their families after Trump unlawful deployment.
