Republicans pretend to care about the national debt, but when it comes to defense contractors or tax breaks for billionaires, they race to write a blank check.
Their hypocrisy is truly astounding.

Guess who attended a $1,200 per plate dinner with the pesticide industry?
If you said top Trump & RFJ Jr. advisor Calley Means—who publicly says pesticides are bad—you're right! Is that all it takes to buy a Trump official these days?
It's time for MAHA & MAGA to BREAK UP!
How many of Trump’s radicalized ICE incels are violent monsters? It’s a threat to public safety and a danger to our communities.
It was an honor to finally meet Pastor Ezra Jin. I joined colleagues in calling for his release from detention in China. Authorities must release the rest of the Zion Church members whose religious freedom rights are denied by the Chinese government.
Last week, I spoke with 160 incredible young anti-hunger advocates as part of the 4th Gen Z Food & Hunger Summit.
This work is more important than ever. 1/3 of Gen Z Americans have faced food insecurity. Together, we can #EndHungerNow.
Republicans have a new favorite talking point: calling anyone who disagrees with them a “communist” instead of addressing the affordability crisis—or the fascist MAGA takeover eating their own party alive. I’ll keep calling them out.
If Republicans actually went out and talked to people, they’d know the only ones they’re helping are the billionaires who bought another private jet thanks to Trump’s tax breaks.

Rep. McGovern on Trump's new budget requests:
A budget proposal that includes $73 billion for Trump's never ending Iran war, a $12 billion band-aid for farmers who are hurting, a big admission that tariffs have devastated farmers, and $10 billion to indulge the Trump's election conspiracy theories.
Trump promised gas would go down. He promised no more endless war.
Gas is now much more expensive because we’re 5 months in, with no end in sight, to a brand new war he started with Iran.
You and your family are paying the price for his lies.
Apparently the emergency is that billionaires needed another tax break. You can’t make this stuff up.
Trump wants to give ICE incels a blank check to kill Americans in broad daylight with zero repercussions. This kind of impunity is TOTALLY IMMORAL and INCOMPATIBLE with global human rights standards.
What a pathetic, petulant manchild.
HIS big oil friends—NOT Canada—are the ones that caused the climate crisis that’s driving the wildfires.
And now Americans will pay for his temper tantrum with $$$ from our wallets.
This week, House Republicans are trying to convince America that they give a damn about corruption and insider trading. Give me a break.
How many more American servicemembers need to be put in harm’s way because Donald “I’m not a pedophile” Trump is desperate to cover up his administration’s extensive and ever-expanding involvement in Jeffrey Epstein’s global child rape ring?
Agreed. Now tell the President to stop this madness so no more Americans die in his reckless and illegal war of choice.
Congress voted to end the war in Iran last month. How many more Americans have to die before Republicans stand up to the madman in the Oval Office and END THIS WAR and BRING HOME OUR TROOPS?
Incredibly sad to learn that more brave American service members will not be coming home. My prayers are with everyone impacted—including the families and friends anxiously awaiting answers on their injured and missing loved ones.
More corruption, criminality, and grifting in the Trump administration.
Shocking!
