Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing?

Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

This iconic photo…

On the night he made history, Obama reached for his mother-in-law’s hand.

Michelle later wrote in Becoming that her mom felt his loneliness that night. His father gone since he was 2, his mother and grandmother both passed. Marian said she could feel the β€œgravity of the passage”

A lot of people do not have financial understanding for managing savings or how to acquire a savings account/retirement savings.
High school doesn’t teach finances.
This is most likely helpful, not derogatory. Imagine the city actually being helpful and you still finding fault.

BREAKING: Pope Leo Meets with American Migrants, Pledges to Stand Up to Trump's Raids The American pontiff told them, β€œThe Church cannot stay silent before injustice. You stand with me. And I stand with you.”

BREAKING: Pope Leo just met with American migrants advocating for those living in fear of deportation.

He said to them β€” and to Trump’s America:

β€œThe Church cannot stay silent before injustice. You stand with me. And I stand with you.”

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

Trump is turning DOJ into a weapon of revenge

From Comey to Bolton to Tish James β€” anyone who held him accountable is now a target

This is not democracy
It’s a rewrite of Jan 6, of history itself
It’s retaliation, not justice

How dare you betray your constituents who stand by your policies. This is wrong. Stop reaching across the isle to the unreachable who DO NOT want you in their policies. They lie and cheat.
