Remember: Trump bombed an elementary school full of kids AFTER Pete Hegseth gutted the Pentagon's civilian harm prevention office.
First they lied and blamed Iran. Now our military admits it was a mistake.
FIRE Hegseth.
DEMAND an independent investigation.
END THIS WAR!
7 brave American soldiers are dead, 140 are seriously wounded, it’s costing a billion dollars a day, gas prices are soaring…
And Trump’s White House thinks it’s all a game.
There is no place for this vile hate in America or anywhere in civilized society. We must all stand against & condemn antisemitism, hate, and violence in the strongest terms.
The “we” he’s referring to here are his billionaire Big Oil donors. They’re the ones making money off his reckless, illegal war while life gets more expensive for the rest of us.
Americans were already facing a crushing affordability crisis. Because of Trump’s reckless war of choice, it’s only getting worse.
Proud to lead a bipartisan group of lawmakers urging the Trump Administration to support the rights & dignity of the Tibetan people. Read more:
Trump has now spent nearly $12 billion on his reckless war with Iran.
More than 3x what Congress allocates per year on helping struggling seniors & low-income families who can’t afford their home heating bills.
The priorities of this White House & GOP Congress are a disgrace.
Spent the morning with Duffy, a volunteer with the Elder Services of Worcester, on his weekly route delivering nutritious meals to seniors living in Millbury as part of the annual Meals on Wheels #MarchForMeals! Thank you Duffy for all you do to keep our neighbors healthy & fed!
Really? Because this all sounds an awful lot like when the Bush administration lied to us about WMDs in Iraq.
It’s day 11 of Trump’s reckless war with Iran, and he’s already wasted almost $12 BILLION dollars. That’s about 3x as much as what we spend on helping low-income families, especially seniors, heat their homes.
Republicans keep choosing endless war over keeping American families healthy & warm.
NEWS: Today I'm announcing $12+ million in new funding for major projects in MA02:
🚸More childcare slots in Whitinsville
🏠More affordable housing in Worcester
🚒New fire truck for Conway
🚗Safer streets on Route 20 in Shrewsbury
🥤Better drinking water in Leicester
...check out the full list below!
Our priorities in this country are way out of whack—we are spending billions each day on reckless, unnecessary wars & tax breaks for billionaires, but we’re told we don't have enough to feed hungry kids in school.
Hunger is a political choice.
Here’s how Republicans are spending your tax dollars. Remember that when they say we “don’t have enough” for housing & healthcare.
Trump replaced Khamenei with his son who, by all accounts, is even worse. The White House is led by incompetent idiots with absolutely no plan for what comes next.
This is what happens when the president is a billionaire who cares more about building ballrooms & starting wars than lowering costs.
Trump has spent more in 10 days on his reckless war in Iran than America spends in two years on community health centers providing medical care for low-income and uninsured Americans.
Our priorities are out of whack in this country.
You’ve got to be kidding me. President Bone Spurs and his incompetent White House are floating the idea of sending other people’s sons, daughters, moms and dads to fight and die in a ground war with Iran.
He swore he wouldn’t do this. He lied.
