Shell just posted nearly $7 BILLION in profits—twice as high as the last year—thanks to Trump’s chaotic war with Iran, which has caused fuel costs to spike and given Big Oil an excuse to profit from sky-high prices. It's profiteering, and it's Trump at the pump.
Graphic of headline that reads "Shell Reports Nearly $7 Billion Profit Amid ‘Unprecedented Disruption’, The oil giant’s earnings in the first three months of the year were more than double the previous quarter’s and follow similarly strong results of European rivals." Full text linked in reply.
The Federal Censorship Commission is once again targeting broadcasters who don’t flatter Donald Trump. This time, they’re going after Disney’s broadcast licenses. I’m leading my colleagues in demanding they stop this unconstitutional attack on free speech.

Trump says higher gas prices are a “small price to pay” for his reckless, illegal war. Tell that to Americans paying $20+ more per fill-up—which will cost drivers over $730 more per year on average. That’s not small.

Trump on high gas prices for Americans: "What's happening is people are learning to buy oil from the United States. They're making the trip. Oil is at $102. That's a very small price to pay for getting rid of a nuclear weapon from people that are really mentally deranged."
Nurses are the backbone of our health care system. This National Nurses Week, we honor the more than 5 million who show up for us every day. I’m fighting for more funding for recruitment and training, fair pay, and protecting the right to organize. Let’s have their backs. youtube.com/shorts/4SZNf...
The CDC quietly stopped helping states test for infectious diseases like rabies. RFK Jr. is gutting critical public health services and making our country less safe. I'm calling on him to answer for his dangerous choices.

The Pentagon is blocking clean energy projects, killing jobs and driving up your energy bills. By inventing new legal hurdles, it has stalled 160 wind projects that would power millions of homes. The Trump administration is worsening our energy price crisis.
Pentagon blocking 160 wind farms, industry group says
The American Clean Power Association said DOD's national security reviews — all for farms on private land — haven't been moving forward.

Despite Trump's disastrous war of choice and gas costing $4.50 a gallon, Iran is still a year away from a nuclear bomb. There never was an “imminent” nuclear threat from Iran. Trump lied. Not one penny more for this unnecessary, expensive war. We can only fix this with diplomacy.

Exclusive: US intelligence indicates limited new damage to Iran's nuclear program, sources say
In the U.S., guns are the leading cause of death for children, yet gun manufacturers still market assault weapons to children. No more. We’re demanding that Mountain Billy Gun Lab halt its firearm campaigns geared towards minors immediately.
