It’s time.

When it comes to the homeowners’ insurance crisis, you’re getting screwed on costs AND corruption.

The @ATGUSAMade Buddy Sled is a specific solution I kneeded for a school I’ve been helping. For my own workouts, I use the resisted treadmill - and all my shoes and equipment are on sale for the holidays! This video also covers the history of sled dragging:

Speaker Johnson needs to bring House Republicans back from their paid vacation. It's time to negotiate. Our families are on the line.

If a judge orders you to release funds for hungry children and you continue to fight it, it’s time to take a step back and re-evaluate how you got there. No political leverage is worth corrupting your soul.

Federal workers are missing paychecks, SNAP recipients can't get full benefits & now airlines at 40 airports — including Honolulu — are preparing to delay & or cancel flights due to FAA orders. All because Republicans refuse to lower health care costs and reopen the government.
Air traffic controllers and TSA officers have been working under duress, but staffing shortages have caused only sporadic spikes in flight disruptions. Here’s what to expect at the airport after the Trump administration reduces flight traffic: https://t.co/Isces9KHwT

Last month’s layoffs were the highest we’ve seen in the month of October in 22 years. That means the last time this many people were laid off in October, Friends was still releasing new episodes, Beyoncé had just released her debut solo album, and W. was still in his first term
More than 1 million U.S. workers have been laid off in 2025 so far, a level typically seen in recessions, according to new data.

This is what oligarchy looks like: If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break. If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry. Obscene.

Kids, seniors, and vulnerable families aren't bargaining chips. Glad to see the court making clear that Trump needs to stop weaponizing food against Americans and release full SNAP benefits!
HAPPENING NOW: Judge McConnell is sharply rebuking the Trump administration for what he said was defying his order to make full SNAP payments by Nov. 5. He has ordered USDA to make the *full* payment to states by tomorrow.

Democrats are fighting to make sure 22 million Americans don’t see their premiums skyrocket next year. … and Donald Trump won’t negotiate an inch to prevent those huge cost increases.

President Trump is fighting in court to not feed hungry children.
Vance on a federal judge ordering the Trump administration to use emergency contingency funds to partially pay SNAP benefits: "It's an absurd ruling...In the midst of a shutdown, we can't have a federal court telling the president how he has to triage the situation."

Families and kids have been worried about their next meal while Trump wobbles on whether or not he’ll follow the law. The courts could not be more clear: The White House needs to fully fund SNAP for November.

I've been raising the alarm about the expiring tax credits for nearly 2 YEARS. Republicans have had all the time in the world to fix their MAGA health care hike. There is no later anymore. Republicans already pushed us over the ACA tax credit cliff. The time to fix this is NOW.

Donald Trump promised to cut electricity costs in HALF by 2026. But new data shows that electricity costs have actually gone UP by 11% since he took office. Another Trump lie that's costing American families.

Health care is a right, not a luxury. But 225,000 Coloradans are seeing their prices double because Donald Trump and Republicans refuse to come to the table. I’m fighting to reduce costs for families, and promise to bring that same commitment to Colorado as your next Governor.

Who does this help? Being able to file your taxes for free seems like one of those uncontroversial things we should all agree on. IRS Direct File let people do that, but now Trump ended it.
The program worked flawlessly and saved taxpayers time and money. The Trump Administration killed it because a couple well-connected tax prep companies wanted them to. So be sure to thank them when you’re shelling out money for private tax prep services next year.

President Trump said on the campaign trail that he had ‘concepts of a plan’ to make health care affordable. More than a year later… we’re still waiting for it.

Today on the Senate floor: Democrats made an offer to Republicans to re-open the government and extend the ACA tax credits for one year. We’re calling their bluff. The ball is in their court.

This fight is about the people we represent. Let's extend healthcare tax credits, reopen the government, and then let's sit down and figure it out. The status quo is not working well for anybody. We need to give Americans some hope. —@SenatorWarnock
