President Trump is actively making your life more expensive.

Americans need cheaper energy and lower costs. But all he's done is wage a war on clean energy that would actually make that happen.

@rephuffman.bsky.social: "I've been taking notes... Just remember, you started it."

This is exactly it. All Trump and the GOP have done is KILL clean energy projects left and right to cut deals for their polluter buddies.

To actually have real negotiations on permitting reform, they must first stop their war on clean energy.

Americans deserve better. Definitely better than whatever House Republicans are cooking up for their billionaire buddies.

We deserve clean, reliable energy, good-paying jobs & affordable healthcare. Democrats won't sacrifice our health, environment, or livelihoods for polluter profits.

The Republican shutdown is over, but millions are still struggling to afford healthcare and food.

House Republicans' first priority?

NOT helping hardworking Americans, but jamming through more favors for billionaire polluters.

Families are waiting in food bank lines. Millions of federal workers are either furloughed or working without paychecks.

And *this* is what y'all are focused on? Throwing Gatsby themed parties, building ballrooms, and handing out favors for your billionaire buddies? Shame.

Republicans shamelessly voted for this mess.

Will they finally speak up now that Trump wants to drill off their own coasts? Or will they stay silent while our coasts face the risks of oil slicks?

While millions of Americans go without a paycheck during the Republican shutdown, the Trump administration is working overtime to make sure Big Polluters don’t miss theirs.

E&E News: ‘Test case’ for NEPA: Fast-tracked mine reviews fuel outcry BLM is narrowing reviews for proposed mining projects in states like Nevada and Utah. Critics say the agency is on shaky legal ground.

Polluted waterways. Despoiled national monuments.

The Trump administration just approved a copper mining expansion in Utah near Bears Ears without considering the impacts on local communities.

This was a polluter giveaway in the middle of a government shutdown and they thought nobody would notice.

If they can do this to the White House, imagine what they’d do to Yosemite or the Lincoln Memorial.

Trump is using the Republican shutdown to give Big Oil exactly what it wants: drilling right off our beaches and coasts.

Trump's $300 MILLION ballroom is being paid for by corporations w/ active federal contracts and crypto firms tied to his allies.

RM @rephuffman.bsky.social, @oversightdemocrats.house.gov RM Robert Garcia & @repyassansari.bsky.social are demanding EVERY record on these raging conflicts of interest.

Every day more Americans get notices they won’t be able to afford Republicans’ new health care rates, yet Trump is more focused on meddling in foreign imports, buying new private jets, and building a gilded ballroom.

We're almost 4 weeks into the shutdown, and they're still nowhere to be seen.

Maybe literally anything else Americans are struggling with could be a priority? Cost of living? Health care? National security?

Just a thought.

Donald Trump is demolishing part of the White House—the People’s House—to build his own grand ballroom and put his billionaire friends’ names all over it.

@robertgarcia.house.gov, @repyassansari.bsky.social, and @naturalresources.bsky.social's @rephuffman.bsky.social are demanding answers.

They shut down the government, fired thousands of workers, and then tore down the East Wing to build Trump his palace.

The only thing this White House serves is Trump’s ego.

While Americans go without paychecks or healthcare, Trump is demolishing the East Wing to build himself a private $250 million gilded ballroom funded by billionaires.

🚨🚨 Ranking Members @rephuffman.bsky.social, @robertgarcia.bsky.social & @repyassansari.bsky.social are demanding FULL TRANSPARENCY.

TRUMP ADMIN ANNOUNCES NEXT PHASE IN WHITE HOUSE DEMOLITION. GILDED BALLROOM AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.

If you love our public lands, this hits you.

Republicans shut down the government so Americans can’t see what they’re doing: firing over 2,000 park rangers and staff who protect our parks and wildlife so Big Oil can cash in when this is all over.

Alaska is now running one of the largest rescue missions in state history.

This is where Republicans' climate denialism has gotten us: gutting life-saving grants that might’ve helped spare these villages and homes from catastrophic flooding.

Just last week, the Trump administration greenlit 13 million acres of new coal leases and canceled billions in clean energy projects.

Americans deserve better than doubling down on 18th century technology while 21st century storms wash homes into the ocean.

The Trump Admin is using the government shutdown to cancel energy funding so that your utility bills go up.

A Trump shutdown completely meant to enrich Billionaires! All at your expense.

Map of the United States with states shaded to show national park impacts from the government shutdown. Red states indicate parks or facilities restricted or closed: Maine, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, New Mexico, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Wyoming. Black states indicate sites or parks left abandoned without staff or services. Large headline text reads: “Republicans’ Government Shutdown Leaves Parks Empty and Closed.” Subtext reads: “Across the country, national parks are either closed or left without staff, rangers, or services.”

Republicans forced a government shutdown.

Now national parks across the country are closed, abandoned, and without rangers.

The world lost a beloved voice for nature today.

Dr. Jane Goodall spent her life proving that humans are not apart from nature, but part of it. Her research, activism, and hope shaped modern conservation and inspired generations. She showed us that empathy, curiosity, and (1/2)

Trump and Republicans don’t want government to work for you, they want it to work only for their billionaire buddies.

Thousands of public servants are being forced out and more mass firings are on the way. They're doing everything they can to make sure you won't get the services you're owed.

Congrats to Chunk!!

He’s clearly more qualified to be President than the guy who can’t even keep the government open without driving up healthcare costs.
