🚨 NEW: ADP report: U.S. LOST an average of 11,000 jobs per week in October 2025.

Let’s compare, shall we:

In 2024, the economy ADDED about 2.2 million jobs in 2024 — an average monthly GAIN of 186,000.

From steady climb to sudden slide.

These South Korean workers came to the US to build an EV battery plant. They left in shackles. They still want to know why ICE agents raided, arrested workers at a Georgia battery factory in September.

In September, federal agents swarmed a Hyundai manufacturing site, detaining more than 500 workers, including more than 300 from South Korea.

Now, nearly 200 detainees are preparing to sue ICE, alleging human rights violations and unlawful arrest.

You found $40 billion to bail out Argentina.

But refuse to provide a dime to keep American children from going hungry.

Show some leadership, get off the golf course and reopen the government.

My statement on the spending legislation and Republican healthcare crisis.

In the most predictable development ever, Mike Johnson is not committing to hold a House vote on ACA subsidies

We will not let Minnesotans go hungry.

And he's totally setting the stage to disregard a Supreme Court loss claiming doing so would present a "national security" threat.

Reporter: Dr Oz said that—

Jeffries: Who? Nobody who is serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously… I’m not going to respond to any comments from randos like Dr. Oz who is woefully unqualified.

Unfortunately still true bsky.app/profile/adam...

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

The weathiest country in the world doesn't mean a thing if it won’t feed its own people.

Trump just got massively booed and flipped off by the crowd at the Commanders game.

Tonight was a very bad night.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people.

Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

Trump wants health insurance premiums to spike right after he allowed medical debt to adversely affect people’s credit ratings, while rolling out 50 year mortgages.

But he loves you, MAGA. That’s why he’s building that ballroom for you.

Meme: AMERICA IS TIRED OF THIS SH*T The word is spelled out using a pic of Trump as the “i” in the spelling.

Can someone explain to me why we’re paying House Republicans to stay at home and do nothing? SMDH

If our air traffic controllers and TSA, as well as, other essential workers have to go to work without pay, then why in the hell are all these lazy, do-nothing Republicans getting paychecks?!

They weren't terrorists. They weren't cartel members. They had no fentanyl. And they weren't coming here.

They were transporting cocaine. To Trinidad.

Most importantly, they were human beings.

And they were murdered.

By the government of the United States of America.

Ok, but let’s just say that TACO actually is a Russian asset (which is likely confirmed by the Epstein files),

isn’t crashing the U.S. economy EXACTLY what he’s supposed to do?

I mean…don’t his actions more clearly demonstrate an intent to harm the United States, than to actually lead it?

It’s weird for Republicans to say out loud that Charlie Kirk’s murder should have helped them win elections.

It’s fucking weird.

Do you remember when the White House had good taste?

Back when the art had meaning, the rooms had soul, and the President had both.

Crockett: When you go and you hit those booths come the midterms, think about which party decided that it was okay to literally be on vacation while people were going hungry in the streets of America.

After voting to give billionaires tax breaks and making health care more expensive, Derrick Van Orden has refused to hold a town hall to talk to the voters he works for in a face-to-face conversation. So, I'm heading to Wisconsin to help give the people he's supposed to represent a voice.

I'm here outside Speaker Johnson’s office because he is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein Files.

Change my mind.

A social media news card preview from The Washington Post. The headline reads: “How long does covid booster protection last? A new study offers answers.” The article is credited to Leana S. Wen and shows it was posted 35 minutes ago. The image above the headline shows a close-up of a gloved healthcare worker’s hands administering a vaccine injection into a person’s upper arm. The syringe and safety cap are clearly visible, and the scene suggests a clinical or vaccination setting.

Researchers looked at 1.8M Americans. (Only ~13% got the 2024–25 COVID shot)

🔸Protection against infection was ~45% at 4 weeks, ~36% at 10 weeks, and ~17% at 20 weeks

🔸Protection against ER visits was 45% → 43% → 39%

🔸Strongest was against hospitalisation/death: 57% → 50% → 34%

TARIFFS ARE TAXES

Trump is leaving families to starve but communities are stepping up. That he’s trying to interfere proves Trump really just wants kids and families to go hungry. I just introduced a bill to protect stores that offer discounts to SNAP recipients if they choose to.
