Secretary Kennedy ended a program that literally keeps the heat on for folks struggling to make ends meet. I asked him why. Here's his response:

I told Congress they're killing poor kids in Gaza by buying bombs, and they're paying for it by kicking poor kids off Medicaid in the US. This was the authorities' response.

Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one. All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

Now is a great time to reach out to your member of Congress who promised not to cut Medicaid. Or to your conservative friends who don't think we should be exploding the debt. Because today, Donald Trump met with Republicans on Capitol Hill, trying to pass a bill that would do

The top buyers of Trump's meme coin - mostly foreign oligarchs likely - get their secret meeting with him tomorrow night. It's fundamentally corrupt - a way to buy access to the the President. The White House needs to release the list of attendees.

So much for the Constitution. The Trump administration has accepted the offer of a free jet from Qatar despite ample concerns from both Democrats and Republicans. motherjones.com/politics/2025/…

Absolutely nothing justifies the murder of innocents. I am devastated by the killing of two people outside an American Jewish Committee event here in Washington. Our prayers are with the victims, families, and loved ones of all impacted. As we await more details, we must be clear that hatred

Early this morning, House Republicans passed Trump's "big, beautiful" budget bill to kick millions of Americans off Medicaid and fund tax cuts for billionaires and big corporations - but not before they snuck in even more changes that will make life harder for the most vulnerable

Here’s audio of Social Security chief on Googling the job after being offered it: "I'm like, 'Well, what am I going to do?' So, I'm Googling Social Security. You know, one of my great skills, I'm one of the great Googlers on the East Coast … I'm like, 'What the heck's the
