Don’t take it from me, take it from Chuck Grassley. Midwest farmers are getting crushed by Trump's tariffs and trade wars. Now he’s sending $20 billion to bail out Argentina while they take over our soybean market? So much for putting America first.

Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?  If federal agents marched down busy streets harassing civilians and demanding their papers, what would we say?  I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is.

Anyone who talks about their fellow Americans as enemies to be "taken out" is not fit to lead the nation. Take the keys away from Donald Trump before he drives us further into chaos.

This speech should terrify anyone who cares about our country. Declaring war on our nation’s cities and using our troops as political pawns is what dictators do. This man cares about nothing but his own ego and power.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

Good morning. The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you. Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

"Some growers have called the fallout from his chaotic trade war, and the reciprocal tariffs it provoked, a 'farmageddon' that could ruin what made rural America great." ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/09/30/ohi…

Republicans control every branch of the federal government and they can’t even pass their own BS to keep the lights on.

Trump has said that if Democrats don't fall in line and do whatever it is that Republicans want, he's going to fire thousands of workers across the country. He is using American workers as pawns. It’s deeply wrong.

The Republicans' bottom line boils down to this: They'll keep the federal government closed unless Democrats help Trump increase your health care premiums and kick millions off Medicaid. It doesn't have to be like this, and it shouldn't.

PreK-12 Chair Darrin Camilleri on our bipartisan education budget that makes record-breaking investments in the classroom:

🚨It may have been 2am when the vote came down, but this morning Michigan kids woke up with a bipartisan school aid budget that delivers. 🚨 📚 Record per-pupil funding: $10,050 per student 🥪 Free breakfast & lunch for every child 🧠 Mental health & school safety funding

Federal agents reporting to Secretary Noem have spent weeks snatching up families, scaring law-abiding residents, violating due process rights, and even detaining U.S. citizens. They fail to focus on violent criminals and instead create panic in our communities.

It wasn’t easy. MAGA tried to stop us and we did it anyway.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) says he has been denied 4 times to see what is going on inside the Broadview, IL ICE facility: "Something's going on in there that they don't want us to see. I don't know what it is, but all Americans should be asking the same question."

Firing over 1,000 CDC employees last night will result in even more death and disease worldwide. This is Trump's + RFKJr's legacy. When #PublicHealth works, you don't notice-get ready to notice lots more sickness and death in the coming months and years

For sure.

Each of us swore an oath to the Constitution. We are all watching what President Trump is doing with the uniformed military. As people who have served, it’s important to speak out. So on 10/18 let's do what we do best. Wear the red, white and blue. Wave the flag. Peacefully.

Republican leaders claim No Kings Day 2.0 is a "hate America" rally. Rubbish. We’re rallying tomorrow because we LOVE America. It's an opportunity for all of us who love this country to express our determination that our nation’s ideals not be crushed by the Trump regime.
