Trump: 'We are so broke 15 million people need to lose their health insurance.' Also Trump: www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-...

Wannabe-dictators who want to rip off working people aren’t just a problem in the United States.  This week, I met with heads of state from across Latin America visiting the United Nations to talk about standing up for democracy and working people across the region.

The difference couldn't be clearer. Democrats want to keep the government open and fund health care. Republicans want to shut down the government so they can cut programs that help working people. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

This would be a hell no from me. The health care crisis is real. Democrats need to put up a real fight against it — not just put on a show then cave for crumbs.

Trump is going to keep saying unhinged things. But here's what he and Democrats are really fighting about: whether millions of people are going to lose their health care and millions more are going to have their premiums double. Every American should know this.

At the urging of Trump, Republicans are threatening a government shutdown to gut health care even more. They want: 😷 15 million losing coverage ❌ 20+ million losing low cost plans ⬆️ 75% higher premiums Democrats can’t let Trump rip health care away from working Americans.

Took Trump 434 words but I can summarize it in 15: Trump wants to shut down the government to slash health care and enrich his friends. As a labor organizer I learned: when the boss blows up talks, it's because they know they're losing. Democrats must keep up the fight for health care & families.

Trump’s border czar was caught on tape taking a $50,000 bribe. Then Trump’s DOJ covered it up. Homan must resign. Congress must investigate who was involved in this massive scandal. Anyone who committed crimes should be prosecuted.

Donald Trump and Republicans are driving us toward a government shutdown — just to cut health care even more. They want to end ACA tax credits for over 20 million people. They want to raise premiums by 75%. They want to betray working families even more.

You may not know it, but your health care costs are about to go way up. If ACA subsidies expire, premiums rise by 75%. This isn’t complicated. Democrats need to step up and fight back.

Millions are about to lose the ability to see a doctor. Millions more will pay higher prices. All because Republicans want ACA subsidies gone, Medicaid cut, and a government shutdown to make it happen. In a functioning democracy this would be a moral and economic catastrophe.

America is hurtling toward a health care crisis. With the train barreling towards that disaster, the Republican plan is to rip out the brakes: 😷 Kick 15 million off their health care ❌ End ACA subsidies for 20+ million ⬆️ Jack up your premiums by 75%

A 10-year-old US citizen recovering from a rare brain tumor is being kept out of her own country. Trump’s cruelty knows no bounds. That's how low he's willing to go. But we won’t forget about the Hernández family. We won’t stop fighting until Sara is safe and back in Texas.

The debate over government shutdowns can sound complicated. Let me make it simple: 15 million Americans are about to lose their health care. Your costs will go up as a result, too. Republicans want to shut down the government, slash your care, and blame everyone else for it.

From Bezos to Iger, the ultra-wealthy men who run America's biggest media companies are auctioning off our 1st Amendment to a wannabe tyrant.

Kimmel isn't being punished for what he said last week. He's being punished for speaking out for years about Trump, including Trump trying to kick millions of Americans off their health care. This is what's at stake: the ability of Americans to speak out against the billionaire takeover.

Instead of trying to address the crisis of political violence, Trump and Vance are going after magazines and independent foundations. This is wrong. youtu.be/diS9E5qVRMk

To address a problem we have to tell the truth about it. Donald Trump has done more to mainstream political violence than any other politician in modern American history.

We must stop funding this genocide. Hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians live in Gaza City. They will have to flee again or risk being killed. This is what Defense Minister Yoav Gallant meant when he said “we will eliminate everything” in Gaza.

This is craven, cynical, and very dangerous. Political violence is a crisis in this country — which is why Americans deserve leaders who want to actually solve it, not weaponize it against their political opponents.

17 million Americans getting kicked off their health care would mutilate our nation. This is the time to fight for what we believe in, not rubber stamp Trump’s budget.

Trump and his family get billions. Billionaires and big corporations get special treatment. Working people get screwed.

Millions of working Americans will be unable to afford to go to the doctor, put food on the table, or keep the lights on. Just so Trump can give tax cuts to billionaires.

What Trump and Musk have done to Social Security is a scandal. DOGE put the data of hundreds-of-millions of Americans at risk of being hacked or leaked. Congress must investigate and hold DOGE accountable for its reckless abuse of power.

Trump and Republicans are kicking 17 million Americans off their health care. Health care costs will increase, once again, next year. Trump is literally stealing from the sick to give tax cuts to the rich.

Every time you go to the grocery store, remember that you are paying the price for Trump’s corruption and recklessness.

I was in my second year at West Point on 9/11. Every cadet swore to never forget the heroes we lost – this country swore to never forget. 24 years later, our actions must live up to those words. To those who lost loved ones that day: I will never stop fighting on your behalf.

Good. Donald Trump has taken a wrecking ball to health care for working Americans. Any Senate Democrat who isn't ready to stand up and fight to protect health care might as well pack up and go home.

Political violence tears at the fabric of our democracy. This is horrible and wrong. My thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.

Trump is the guy holding a bag of cash outside of a bank that was just robbed, pleading innocent. Trump can lie all he wants, clearly he’s deeply involved with Epstein, and that becomes more clear every day.

Trump launched an illegal strike off the coast of Venezuela, risking another endless conflict overseas. Republicans in Congress blocked my amendment to stop his reckless warmongering. I’ll keep fighting to keep us out of illegal wars.

Where there's smoke there's fire. With Trump and Epstein, there's more smoke than a Texas barbecue. House Democrats are fighting to release all the files.

The Statesman is right. Texans are desperate for real disaster relief and can't afford a weaker FEMA. But earlier this year, Trump recklessly slashed FEMA's funding. Congress needs to pass my bill to reverse Trump's cuts and restore crucial resources.

You shouldn’t be charged more or paid less because of your search history. That's why I introduced the first bill of ever to ban “surveillance pricing” nationwide. Congress must act now — before this exploitative and unethical practice spreads like wildfire.

Trump lied about this card, AND we know he’s lying about much more. End the Trump Epstein coverup. Release the files.

Arbors at Creekside tenants have faced evictions, neglect, and disrespect. I joined them and BASTA Austin to share food, crack jokes, and build solidarity. Their fight for safe and dignified housing is still urgent. I’ll be with them every step of the way.

Here's something that doesn't get enough attention in Washington: the cost of housing is a crisis for working families.

Airlines should not be able to charge you more for a ticket because they know you Googled “funeral arrangements.” I introduced the first federal ban on surveillance pricing to stop companies from using your private data to jack up prices or lower wages.

Trump gets: $5 billion in crypto deals, a $400 million plane, millions in deals from Facebook, Amazon, CBS. Everyone else gets: higher prices for health care, electricity, and groceries. Corruption, plain and simple.

Here's a scandal you may not have heard about: Trump wants to pay AI companies to deny seniors on Medicare treatments their doctors say they need.

Before Republicans passed the Trump billionaire tax cuts, unions warned it would be “the biggest job-killing bill in history.” They voted for it anyway. Now here we are.

New data shows that for every millionaire who got a Trump tax cut, four Americans will lose their health insurance.

It's time to end the coverup. I signed.

You can understand the problem in America right now with just two numbers. Yesterday we learned Trump has made $5 billion for himself while kicking 17 million Americans off health care.

Yesterday, a bunch of Republican elected officials posted about celebrating Labor Day. Today they’re back at work attacking unions on behalf of their billionaire bosses. We have to make sure every working person knows the truth. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...

NEW: Trump family has now made $5 billion off its corrupt crypto deals. Your family gets higher energy prices and cuts to health care. His family gets billions. Corruption, plain and simple. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Happy Labor Day! Unions secured the 40-hour work week, safer job sites, and fairer pay. Now Trump and Republicans in Congress are trying to tear that legacy apart. Today and every day, we stand with all American workers.

Texas women are being left to bleed because of the abortion ban. Some doctors hesitate, even on blood transfusions, out of fear.  Texas Republicans knew this would happen and passed it anyway.  We won’t stop fighting to restore abortion rights.

Trump’s budget guts Medicaid. It strips essential health care from disabled Americans and forces them to navigate endless bureaucracy. Trump gets power. Billionaires get tax cuts. Disabled Americans get left behind.

After years of trying, Texas Republicans just passed a bathroom bill targeting trans Texans. They’re obsessed with attacking people’s dignity instead of solving real problems. We stand with all our LGBT neighbors and reject this right wing shamelessness.
