Trump is making billions off the presidency while you pay more for gas, groceries, and healthcare. We must ban all presidents from owning and trading stocks.

Trump made over 3,500 stock trades and then used his position as president to influence the market. He is making millions while working people struggle under his corrupt leadership.

Trump has no problem sending 18 and 19-year-olds to war just like they did to me and my brothers 21 years ago. And instead of coming to Congress to fund support for our veterans, he's demanding money for his insurrectionist friends and his ballroom. @americanprogress.bsky.social

Over the weekend, Senate Democrats successfully challenged Republicans’ attempt to give $1 billion in taxpayer dollars to President Trump’s ballroom. This is a big win, and we’ll continue to fight against such a colossal waste of resources as they scramble to redraft.

Trump is stealing $1.8 billion taxpayer dollars to give away to friends and allies…. On top of the billions he’s squandered on new wars. This money could go to lowering your health care, child care, or energy costs… instead it’s being given to Trump’s friends.

Honored to receive @fp4america.bsky.social's Legislative Achievement Award alongside Sen. Todd Young yesterday for our work to repeal the 1991 and 2002 Iraq AUMFs and formally end the Iraq Wars. So grateful to the many partners who helped us get this done.

Republican priorities: $1 billion for Trump’s ballroom. $1.8 billion in taxpayer dollars for a political slush fund to reward Trump’s allies. And when asked about Americans struggling financially, Donald Trump said he’s “not thinking about” that.

Our troops asked for more medical supplies, but the Army ignored them. Then, an Iranian missile hit them, killing 6 servicemembers and injuring more. These troops said those supplies could have saved lives. We need answers from this administration. www.cbsnews.com/news/troops-...

What the hell? Trump wants to repeal limits on cancer-causing, toxic chemicals in our drinking water. "Make America Healthy Again" was just another lie.

Some facts: The reflecting pool was supposed to cost $2 million and be done last week. Now it'll be done last week and costs seven times as much. "Ahead of schedule" is about as real as his promise to bring down costs on day 1 or his concepts of a plan to improve your health care.

In Rhode Island, respect for freedom of religion is in our DNA. We strongly condemn violence against houses of worship of all types. Our hearts are with the people of the Islamic Center of San Diego who were attacked and we stand together against anti-Muslim hatred.

This is an unprecedented level of corruption. Trump is forcing the government to drop ALL tax audits of him, his family, and his businesses—giving him FULL IMMUNITY from prosecution. What is Trump hiding from the American people? Congress must step up and stop this corruption.

Today, Blanche got very offended when I called him out for continuing to act like Trump's personal attorney. Now, we learn he quietly signed a deal to bar the IRS from EVER reexamining Trump's, his family's, or his companies' prior taxes. How does this serve the American people?

It’s unforgivable. Trump made thousands of stock trades to benefit himself, while working Americans are paying the cost of his reckless policies. I'm fighting to ban high-ranking government officials from trading stocks, including the president and members of Congress.

Every American knows Trump’s $1.8 BILLION slush fund is rotten to the core. It’s an obvious ripoff of American taxpayers. And it’s totally indefensible.

My heart is with the families affected by the tragic shooting at the San Diego Islamic Center, a sacred place of worship. Anti-Muslim rhetoric is skyrocketing and it is unacceptable. No community should live in fear of violence against them because of their faith.

We can't afford veterans' pensions, but we can spend a billion dollars a day on an illegal war nobody voted for. As a veteran, I'll never accept that. Grateful to speak about it this morning at the 2026 Center for American Progress IDEAS Conference.

What have universal school vouchers done for Arizona? They’ve setback students’ education, wasted taxpayer money, and taken resources from public schools. I’m fighting to protect public education, because Republicans’ national school voucher program will only make this worse.

This Congress needs to come together to combat hate and to pass commonsense gun reforms to prevent violent individuals from acting on that hate with such deadly efficiency.

We must condemn islamophobia and all forms of hate in the loudest of terms. No one – no one – in America should have to live in fear of hate crimes or gun violence, but so many of us do – in our places of worship, in our streets, in the grocery aisle, in our schools.

One of the victims was a security guard and father of eight – Amin Abdullah – who was killed while preventing the gunmen from entering the building. His heroic actions surely saved many lives, and we will always owe him and his family a debt of gratitude.

Democrats are fighting to lower costs. Republicans are fighting to launder Trump’s corruption through the federal budget. That’s the difference.

Nearly 2 BILLION dollars for his MAGA slush fund, a billion more for his gilded ballroom, and NOT ONE serious plan to lower costs for the families forced to pay the bill.

Donald Trump thinks the federal government is his personal slush fund.

Trump is creating a nearly $2 billion slush fund with YOUR tax dollars to pay off his insurrectionist allies. This is where your money is actually going. I pushed to stop it. Republicans voted to allow it to happen. Shameful.

Did you know Trump's former personal attorney, who's now the Acting Attorney General, will appoint whoever he wants to oversee a $1.8 BILLION slush fund for Trump's political allies? First, Trump pardoned violent insurrectionists, and now he wants taxpayers to pay them off.

Slashing limits on harmful forever chemicals in our drinking water won’t “Make America Healthy Again.” The admin talks a big game about “MAHA,” but when forced to choose between polluters and public health, they side with polluters every time. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...
