The war in Iran has already cost $22.8 billion.

For $22.8 billion, we could:

• Provide Medicaid to 6.8 million kids
• Build 2.6 million public housing units
• Fund Head Start for 1.3 million
• Hire 240,000 teachers
• Cancel $20,000 in student debt for 1 million borrowers

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Fox News is openly admitting that Donald Trump’s policies are destroying the American farm industry. Wow.

[Jim Acosta @Acosta]

BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

BREAKING: Super powerful words from Jack Smith just now:

"The investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in criminal activity… No one should be above the law in this country and the law required he be held to account.”

Every American needs to hear this

@RpsAgainstTrump Incidents of this sort never cease to amaze me. I’m a retired federal employee with over 3 decades of public service experience. Never would such behavior have been tolerated ! We could never have benefited in any personal way as a result of federal employment.

The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

Together, we proved that we don’t have to choose between protecting the environment and growing the economy. We did both. This Earth Day, let’s remember that preserving what we cannot replace isn’t just an option – it’s our duty to future generations.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

As we resist Trump’s tyranny, America gains solidarity.

As we gain solidarity, we feel more courageous.

As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime.

As we weaken Trump and his regime, we have less to fear.

Hi Drew! IMO, a higher priority for ND's AG office would be to push back against indiscriminate firings like at the VA & SSA, NIH cuts that affect @NDSU & UND + impoundment of what Congress appropriated - federal actions that have a much more significant impact to North Dakotans.

💙 if you stand with #Ukraine ? 🇺🇦

Elon Musk is making on average $8 million per day from government contracts.

The average Medicaid recipient makes $65 per day.

Someone who is making millions per day wants to cut your Medicaid. It's wrong.

Answer to Vance: Zelenskyy has thanked our country over and over again both privately and publicly.
And our country thanks HIM and the Ukrainian patriots who have stood up to a dictator, buried their own & stopped Putin from marching right into the rest of Europe. Shame on you.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

5 things I did last week Musk
1. Successfully asked you to rehire 300 nuclear & avian flu workers you “accidentally” fired
2. Pressed you to pay attention to rising household costs
3. Stood up for vets
4. Fought against your tax cuts for the rich
5. Stood with 🇺🇦 instead of🇷🇺

Donald Trump has reportedly spent an estimated $10.7 million worth of taxpayer money to play golf since his inauguration.

This is happening as Head Start programs have struggled to access previously approved federal funding due to the Trump admin's illegal impoundment.

Hello?

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

An unelected billionaire now has access to the Treasury's payment systems—home to some of the most sensitive data, including millions of Social Security numbers and bank account information. This is a massive data privacy and security risk.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

U.S. public health officials have been told to stop working with the World Health Organization, to comply with an executive order signed by President Trump.

At a time when Avian Flu is spreading, we need information, not silenced health officials.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The president can veto or support legislation. He can make recommendations to Congress. But he doesn't have the unilateral right to change laws.

Trump has very little respect for the rule of law & our Constitution. He is moving us toward authoritarianism.

We must stop him.

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Let's be clear about what happened today: Donald Trump tried to cut a giant chunk of government funding — hurting preschoolers, seniors, and veterans.

Trump's illegal shutdown is blocked for now — but don't forget that he tried to cut programs supporting working families.

[Protect Kamala Harris ✊ @DisavowTrump20]

Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.

RETWEET if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!
