Big news! We just launched the first tv ad of the general election. And the message is simple: stealing is bad, and if you steal tax dollars, you should go to jail. Pretty basic.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

Trump has proposed a $1.5 trillion defense budget — a 40% increase, the largest since WWII.

In exchange for more war he wants to:

-Cut the EPA budget by half
-Cut $10.7 billion for housing
-Cut $8.5 billion for K-12 programs
-Cancel $15 billion for clean energy
-Cut $2.5 billion for clean drinking water
-Eliminate $1.6 billion for youth job training
-Cut $3.5 billion from the Labor Department
-Eliminate $395 million for senior employment
-Eliminate $775 million in food assistance grants
-Eliminate the National Endowment for Democracy
-Cut $5 billion from the National Institutes of Health
-Eliminate the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)

In all, cuts to domestic programs would account for a 10% reduction in discretionary spending.

[End Tribalism in Politics @EndTribalism]

Shawn Ryan says Trump betrayed the MAHA movement by backing immunity for pesticide companies.

“Did you see the glyphosate stuff?”

“Immunity.”

“Because of what? A national security issue?”

“Do you know how many people died of cancer last year? 618,000.”

“That’s somehow not a national security concern.”

“You know where the highest concentration of glyphosate is? It’s in Iowa.”

“Do you know where the highest concentration of cancer is? It’s in Iowa.”

“And he just gave them (pesticide companies) immunity.”

This morning I called James and congratulated him on becoming the Senate nominee. Texas is primed to turn blue and we must remain united because this is bigger than any one person. This is about the future of all 30 million Texans and getting America back on track. With the primary behind us, Democrats must rally around our nominees and win. I’m committed to doing my part and will continue working to elect democrats up and down the ballot.

Iowa has the fastest growing cancer rates in the country and @millermeeks is saying with a straight face that healthcare should be more expensive to incentivize against “over utilizing” doctors?
