Trump promised to lower prices on day one. He lied. Because of his reckless, illegal war of choice in Iran, Americans have collectively paid an extra $59 BILLION in higher prices at the pump. Every decision this administration makes is pushing inflation through the roof.
Trump & Elon Musk got rid of the USAID program that helped contain screwworms to Central America. Now, thanks to them, our beef is being infected with parasites. We’re all paying the price for this insane, far-right radical extremism.
America ought to be the world’s leading human rights champion. Sadly this administration is more interested in abusing human rights than defending them. It comes down to credibility. Why would anyone listen to an abuser when we tell others to stop violating people’s rights?
If the GOP wants to talk about fraud, let’s do it. Trump is responsible for: ✅Defrauding students ✅Crypto scams ✅Corrupt foreign deals ✅Self-dealing gov contracts ✅Shady real estate transactions ✅Pump & dump stock schemes ✅Pardons for allies Care to comment, @houserepublicans.bsky.social?
The United States used to be an international leader on human rights. Under this administration, we are moving backwards. Honored to deliver the keynote speech at the 2026 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award Ceremony.
Republicans are ripping away food assistance from working people, citing phony allegations of “widespread fraud.” But when it comes to Trump pardoning criminals who were ACTUALLY CONVICTED of healthcare fraud, they’re silent. Why? Because those criminals are rich & powerful.
Great to show students from Leominster’s Sky View Middle School around the U.S. Capitol! Their great questions & interest in public service give me great hope for our country. Thanks for coming down to Washington!
🚨Glyphosate update: Trump’s USDA Secretary repeatedly refused to answer whether she supports a liability shield for huge chemical corporations when their toxic products cause cancer and other diseases. Disgusting.
Trump & Secretary Rollins kicked at least 700 thousand CHILDREN off nutrition assistance—and that’s only counting 7 states. Today, she refused to tell me whether she stands by her comment that kicking people off food assistance is “good news.” These people are so cruel.
🚨NEWS: I just asked Trump’s Secretary of Agriculture EIGHT TIMES whether she supports a liability shield for corporations that produce cancer-causing chemicals like glyphosate. She refused to answer. It’s a total betrayal of MAHA.
McGOVERN: Do you believe pesticide companies deserve liability protection? BROOKE ROLLINS: We cannot destroy our framers' ability to plant McGOVERN: So even though you say glyphosate is safe, you believe they should have some sort of liability protection?
McGOVERN: Do you stand by your comment that kicking people off food assistance is somehow 'good news'? BROOKE ROLLINS: Most of those were fraudulent McGOVERN: I've talked to people who lost benefits. They were kicked off of SNAP. Hunger is getting worse in the United States.
I want big solutions to the important problems facing America. Republicans want a culture war food fight to distract you from the billionaires who are stealing your money and writing their campaign checks.
The House voted to end Trump’s reckless, costly, & illegal war with Iran. The Senate voted to end it. The American People want to end it. It is driving up the cost of everything. This must come to an end. No more endless war!
