We’re starting yet another week where House Republicans are on paid vacation instead of in Washington working with us to end this shutdown. Our health care system is about to go off a cliff. Get back here and help us find a solution.

I think Democrats should implement this nationwide at all protests. A competent attorney with a bullhorn directly communicating to law enforcement and the surrounding cameras. This is a VERY smart idea.

Just like the Epstein files, this is another story Trump is trying to bury. It’s time for the administration to finally be transparent and release the tapes. It’s simple. Either Tom Homan took the $50K or he didn’t.

Multiple airports are now announcing they will refuse to play Kristi Noem’s government-funded video blaming “Democrats” for the government shutdown. “We believe the Hatch Act clearly prohibits use of public assets for political purposes and messaging,” one airport said.

Virtually every news outlet is rejecting the ultimatum and saying they will not sign the Pentagon's restrictive new press rules, including Newsmax, which said in a statement, “We believe the requirements are unnecessary and onerous and hope that the Pentagon with review the

This is all we had to sign to be credentialed for the Pentagon until now - no restrictions on news gathering. It’s what we’ve signed for years. The new 21 pages of requirements are not about safety - they are about limiting what the public will know.

Folks, it couldn't be clearer: The majority of Americans, including Republicans, want to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits so their healthcare coverage costs don’t go up. Republicans in Congress would rather shut down the government than listen to the people they serve.

Trump has said himself before: It’s the president’s job to get people together to end this shutdown. Well, Democrats are ready to work together to find a solution that keeps Americans’ health care costs from going up. We’re waiting for Republicans to get back to work and join us.

I'm not afraid. Come and get me, Donald. I will stand up for the law and the Constitution. That’s what we do in the State of Illinois.

On behalf of Arizona, I am demanding Speaker Johnson seat Congresswoman Grijlva without delay. We are keeping every option open to us, including litigation, to make sure that Adelita is able to begin her work as Arizona's newest member of Congress.

Need a ray of sunshine today? #USSupCt has rejected #AlexJones’s bid to set aside $1.4B verdict against him for defaming #SandyHook Elementary victim families. Jones was found liable for falsely claiming that 2012 shooting with 26 victims was a hoax. wapo.st/3LaSH8M

Dear media: Ask @speakerjohnson why he supports the Oversight investigation but not the discharge petition. The reason: the Oversight resolution does NOT include video/audio recordings, photos or witness statements — exactly where you would find Trump. The discharge pet does.

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers. The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

Sad but true, Chris Christie; the once world respected U.S. Department of Justice (US DOJ), once known for its high ethical conduct, #EqualJusticeUnderTheLaw and #RuleOfLaw, has been renamed by President Donald J. Trump as US DOPV (Dept of Personal Vengeance) to harass his political enemies with bogus cases.
