Independence Day is a reminder that America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘We.’ ‘We The People.’ ‘We Shall Overcome.’ ‘Yes We Can.’ America is owned by no one. It belongs to all citizens. And at this moment in history—when core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, when too many people around the world have become cynical and disengaged—now is precisely the time to ask ourselves tough questions about how we can build our democracies and make them work in meaningful and practical ways for ordinary people.
BREAKING: In honor of President Biden, we’re sharing his farewell address. President Biden outlined his clear concerns about our nation’s future. These concerns should be on all of our minds today.
After months of Republican lies, we now have confirmation in their newly released budget: House Republicans want to make America sicker and poorer — to make their ultra-rich billionaire donors even richer.
We won’t let them! #NoMedicaidCuts
Roger Stone called for me to be charged with treason and executed because I introduced a bill to take on Trump’s corruption. Last I checked, that’s my job. Words matter and political violence is personal to my family. This Admin wants to intimidate us, but we can't let them.
Ahead of Mother’s Day, I sat down with author, therapist, mental health advocate, and my incredible friend Rebecca Fox Starr for a conversation about postpartum depression.
Just like Rebecca said: moms across Pennsylvania deserve to feel better — and that’s why my budget includes new funding to ensure the 1 in 8 new moms in Pennsylvania who show symptoms of postpartum depression get the care they need.
You can watch our full interview on YouTube tomorrow, and look out for more highlights throughout the week.
This is what oligarchy is about.
While planning massive cuts to Medicaid, the Republicans are proposing to provide another $235 billion in tax breaks to the top 0.2% of households through an increase in the estate tax exemption.
The very rich get richer. The poor lose health care. Outrageous.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING UPDATE:
TRUMP IS KEEPING THE PLANE.
While Trump will initially use the Qatar gifted plan as Air Force One, it will be transferred to the Trump library by January 2029.
This is now officially the biggest illegal bribe in U.S. history.
Article I, Section 9, Clause 8:
“no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.”
Seems pretty clear that a $400 million “air palace” from a foreign emir qualifies.
The corruption is brazen.
Good time to remember that Jared Kushner's father, Charles Kushner, is a real estate developer who committed tax evasion, illegal campaign contributions, and witness tampering -- and served 2 years in federal prison.
Trump then pardoned him.
