Many VA employees are veterans themselves. Canceling their union contracts is not only insulting to their service, but it’s going to make the quality of care for our veterans worse.

These men and women made incredible sacrifices for our country. This is not how we repay them.

The IRS's free tax filing tool is now reportedly "gone," according to Trump's IRS chief.

This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.

Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

Trump and Burgum are celebrating (scorched) Earth Week by declaring a fake energy emergency and pretending to reduce permitting to just 28 days - but only for fossil fuel, not clean energy.

Elon Musk’s xAI powering its facility in Memphis with ‘illegal’ generators Advocacy group says the firm has doubled the number of methane gas burning turbines it’s using without permits

Why is Memphis leadership ignoring the call for an emergency order? Why doesn’t the health of Memphians matter?

“Southern Environmental Law Center says an emergency order should be issued that requires xAI to cease or suspend the use of the 35 generators.”

President Trump is once again targeting Chris Krebs - someone I worked with for years to protect our elections and democracy.

This is downright wrong and another example of this President’s dangerous revenge tour against his perceived political enemies.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.
