Musk's Starlink was having a hard time getting permits abroad. Then Trump slapped tariffs on basically everything we buy from overseas—and suddenly countries negotiating trade deals started giving Starlink sweet deals! Looks like textbook corruption—and we're all paying for it.

Peter Aaron Rupar Peter Aaron Rupar Independent analyses, like from the Tax Foundation and CRFB, estimate the "Big Beautiful Bill" could add $3.3T-$5.3T to the deficit over 10 years due to tax cuts. The White House claims $1.6T in savings, but no clear evidence from the CEA supports this. Evidence

Trump could strip nonprofits of tax-exempt status if he personally claims they support terrorism. That’s not policy — it’s political retaliation. And it threatens charities, humanitarian orgs, even dissent itself. (7/8)

This isn’t a budget — it’s a blueprint for dismantling democracy and silencing accountability. → Undermines the courts. → Blocks AI oversight. → Rewards gun lobbyists. → Punishes student borrowers. → Attacks reproductive health. → Empowers political retaliation.

🚨🧵Republicans are trying to quietly strip courts of their power to enforce the law. Section 70302 in their budget bill would block judges from holding people in contempt — even when Trump or others defy court orders. I’m leading 20 Members of Congress demanding it be removed.

Today’s passage of the Republican reconciliation bill is a blatant betrayal of hardworking American families. It’s not a budget; it’s a blueprint for cutting the services that millions of Americans have earned and deserve. Read my full statement below:

I am heartbroken and outraged by the brutal shooting outside the Capitol Jewish Museum — a horrific act of antisemitic violence. It stole the lives of two young Israeli embassy staffers — a couple set to be engaged in Jerusalem next week. This was not an isolated tragedy. It is

Earlier today, some of my Jewish colleagues and I rallied against antisemitism. Regarding the latest abomination from the Trump administration, I'm reminded of the answer my colleague and friend Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz gave. We don't fight antisemitism by making Jews the reason to gut

.Congressman John Rose says SALT is a “bailout” for California. Here’s the truth: Tennesseans take $3,220 more per person from the federal government than they pay in. Californians pay $3,239 more than we get back. Tennesseans aren’t bailing anyone out — they’re being subsidized. If

The last time the government ignored HIV, it became a crisis. Now, Trump is walking away. We cannot afford to make the same mistake again.   That's why I'm leading an effort with California House Democrats to demand the @HHS unfreeze funding for LA County's HIV prevention
