Republicans scheduled the hearing to rip health care away from at least 13.7 million Americans and food assistance from 18.3 million kids for 1AM.

Day or night, Oversight Dems and @lynch.house.gov are ready to defend the lifelines that Americans count on.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it.

I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Republicans are saying one thing and doing another.

Trump said he'd "love and cherish Medicaid."

Meanwhile, their bill throws 13.7 million Americans off their health insurance.

If any Republican wants to protect Medicaid, they can sign my discharge petition and do it today.

House Republicans are meeting tonight at 1 AM to try to cut Medicaid and SNAP benefits while Americans are asleep.

We cannot let this go unnoticed. I'm running for Congress to flip Arizona's 1st blue, flip the House blue, and protect your benefits.

Trump has butchered our economy, and the long-term pain for working Americans will be even worse. The downgrade of our credit rating means higher interest for credit cards, mortgages, auto loans, and more.

The argument's over: Americans pay for tariffs The president and his economic team acknowledge that tariffs are raising prices for everyone.

The Trump administration conceded this weekend what economists, CEOs and consumers already knew: Americans pay for tariffs.

For nearly a decade, Trump argued that foreign countries paid the ultimate cost for a trade war.

Even for atheists, this message from Pope Leo XIV is understandable and deserving of repetition:
You cannot follow both Christ and the cruelty of kings. A leader who mocks the weak, exalts himself, and preys on the innocent is not sent by God. He is sent to test you. And many are failing.
