Smithsonian removes references to Trump impeachments at history exhibit Changes at National Museum of American History come amid president’s push to reshape US cultural agencies

Rewriting history to fit the narrative of those in power is a very dangerous, slippery slope.

Trump just slashed $158 million from gun violence prevention programs. These life-saving programs are proven methods that stop violence before it starts and are supported by the police.

But Trump’s priority isn’t to keep us safe or to reduce crime – it’s to appease MAGA.

Urge Congress: Stop Trump’s Tax on Americans Trump’s tariffs have already tanked the stock market and cost Americans billions of dollars, decimating retirement plans and savings. Sign here to urge your elected officials to use their…

Prices are continuing to soar under Trump, and it's a disaster for working people. Another broken promise that he thinks we will just ignore – but we won’t.

Tell Congress: Stop Trump’s tax on Americans.

A dash of hope and inspiration for you this Saturday from @mcbride.house.gov 💙

In Game-Changing Climate Rollback, E.P.A. Aims to Kill a Bedrock Scientific Finding The proposal is President Trump’s most consequential step yet to derail federal climate efforts and appears to represent a shift toward outright denial of the scientific consensus.

Trump’s EPA is revoking the scientific finding that gives the government legal authority to fight climate change and regulate greenhouse gas emissions. That’s like trying to revoke the law of gravity.

The Trump administration cares more about the giant corporations than our future.

Senate Approves Trump’s Pick for Top Counterterrorism Post Joe Kent, a former Army Green Beret, had attracted scrutiny over his associations with extremist groups and his promotion of conspiracy theories.

This week, Senate Republicans voted to confirm a white nationalist and conspiracy theorist with ties to dangerous extremists to lead the National Counterterrorism Center.

THIS is where their priorities lie.

Trump accounts are a 'backdoor for privatizing Social Security,' Treasury secretary says Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent touted President Trump's new savings accounts for babies as a "backdoor for privatizing Social Security."

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is coming for your Social Security.

He’s trying to privatize Social Security – putting your retirement money at risk in the stock market and robbing Americans of the security they deserve and paid for.

Support American Families and Expand the Child Tax Credit Codifying Child Tax Credit expansions would be one of the greatest achievements in the war on poverty in American history. Urge your member of Congress to support working-class families by expanding…

While Republicans cut critical programs for working-class families, Democrats are fighting to rebuild our economy and provide relief for millions.

Tell Congress: expand the child tax credit.

US placed on rights watchlist over health of its civil society under Trump International non-profit Civicus says ‘sustained attacks on civic freedoms’ put US on par with El Salvador and Kenya

Six months into Trump’s second term, the U.S. has landed on a global watchlist for attacks on civil society.

Peaceful protesters face military force, and journalists are attacked and silenced. Our freedoms are being eroded.

It’s on all of us to continue to speak out in defense of our democracy.

Tariffs likely to drive up U.S. prices even with Trump trade deals, experts say With the Trump administration setting 15% as a floor for tariffs, companies and economists are warning of higher prices later this year.

While Trump claims his tariffs will be paid for by foreign exporters, working American families actually pay the price.

A new study projected Trump’s tariffs will drive up U.S. prices over the next two years.

This is NOT putting the American people first.

Republicans gutted Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood, resulting in five clinics in Northern California shutting down. Essential medical care for 2 million people is at direct risk. I’m responding by leading a bill with 130+ cosponsors to fight back.

Defend Medicare and Medicaid Republicans passed a bill to gut Medicaid, but there is still time to reverse these cuts before millions lose health insurance. Defend Medicare and Medicaid.

Republicans gutted Medicaid and put Medicare at risk with their Big Ugly Bill.

60 years since Democratic President Lyndon B. Johnson established Medicare and Medicaid, we must again take action.

Urge Congress to reverse these cruel cuts and protect healthcare for millions:

Every time Republicans try to scapegoat vulnerable people, look closely at what they’re doing to hurt working Americans.

More from @mcbride.house.gov:

Defend Medicare and Medicaid Republicans passed a bill to gut Medicaid, but there is still time to reverse these cuts before millions lose health insurance. Defend Medicare and Medicaid.

For 60 years, Medicare and Medicaid have been a lifeline for millions. But Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill has gutted Medicaid and threatened Medicare.

There’s still time to act – the worst of these Medicaid cuts don’t take effect until after 2026.

Urge Congress to defend healthcare access:

The more things change, the more things stay the same.

On this anniversary of Medicare and Medicaid, we will continue to fight for health insurance against Republicans who want to take it away.

We won’t give up.

We are mourning the four lives lost in yesterday’s senseless shooting in New York City, including Jewish community leader Wesley LePatner.

Sending our deepest condolences to the families and friends of those lost, and may their memories be for a blessing.

Exclusive: ‘A more vulnerable nation’: FEMA memos lay out risks of plan to cut $1B in disaster and security grants | CNN Politics The Federal Emergency Management Agency has proposed cutting nearly $1 billion in grant funding for communities and first responders nationwide to better prepare for disasters and to bolster security ...

Trump’s cuts to FEMA would leave the United States more vulnerable to catastrophic emergencies.

Cutting another $1 billion used to better prepare for disasters and bolster security against possible terror or cyberattacks is reckless, irresponsible, and puts all Americans at risk.

For Sale: Trump is leveraging power of his office to reap profits for family businesses From crypto coins to bibles, overseas development deals to an upcoming line of cellphones, Trump family businesses have raked in hundreds of millions of dollars since his election.

Instead of working in the public’s best interest, Trump is raking in hundreds of millions of dollars for his family’s businesses.

The United States is not for sale.

Judge Indefinitely Blocks Withholding of Medicaid Funds to Planned Parenthood

A federal judge blocked Trump’s efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, ordering that it keep receiving Medicaid funds.

This is a huge win for people across the country who rely on Planned Parenthood for lifesaving healthcare.

California gov. hopeful makes antisemitic Auschwitz comment | The Jerusalem Post California's candidate Langford said he was proud of his "German ancestry" and called Auschwitz a "great work camp," sparking controversy.

The GOP candidate for Governor of California spread antisemitism, calling Auschwitz a “solution for homelessness.”

This vile statement should be universally condemned.

Competing Conspiracy Theories Consume Trump’s Washington President Trump is trying to divert attention from the Epstein conspiracy theory with a new-and-improved one about Barack Obama and treason.

The Epstein files have long been connected to QAnon and “deep state” conspiracies rooted in antisemitism and theories about secret Jewish control of the government.

Trump’s refusal to release the files and promotion of conspiracy theories fuel these right-wing fantasies. What does he have to hide?

@repgreglandsman.bsky.social (OH-01) is a proud Jewish Democrat who is one of the leaders in the fight against Republicans’ cruel cuts to healthcare and food assistance.

Let’s work together to ensure fighters for ALL Americans like Greg are reelected next November and Democrats win back the House.

As humanitarian situation in Gaza worsens, pro-Israel Democrats express concern Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL): ‘The world must not turn a blind eye to the fact that children are starving because of this war’

JDCA CEO @haliesoifer.bsky.social in @jewishinsider.com:

“The situation in Gaza is unacceptable and antithetical to our Jewish values, and it’s incumbent on the Israeli government, the United States and all parties to ensure that Gazans have access to food.”

@mcbride.house.gov: Trump’s Big Ugly Bill is a ticking time bomb set to go off in 2027.

But we can defuse it if Democrats win the House and the Senate in 2026 – giving us the capacity to restore Medicaid funding and save care for millions.

U.S. Quietly Drafts Plan to End Program That Saved Millions From AIDS PEPFAR, the campaign to end H.I.V. globally, would morph into an effort to detect disease outbreaks and sell American products, according to documents obtained by The Times.

The State Department is drafting a plan to destroy an initiative that provides medicines and services to treat and prevent the spread of H.I.V. and AIDS.

A devastating and preventable loss of life at the hands of the Trump administration.

Enough normalizing extremism.
