Donald Trump cannot stop breaking his promises to the American people. By illegally striking Iran, Trump made a choice—one he did not have to make—that puts American lives and national security at risk while threatening to draw us into yet another expensive, tax-payer funded forever war without Congressional approval. He owes it to the American people he promised he would always put first to immediately come before Congress and attempt to justify how this illegal war will serve their interests. In the meantime, the Senate must immediately vote on Senator Kaine’s War Powers Resolution to block this illegal military campaign.

Lies. China bought $1.4 billion in soybeans from Illinois alone last year. This year, due to Trump's policies, the U.S. is projected its lowest soybean exports to China since 2018—when Trump was also President. Don't let Trump gaslight you. He's always been bad for our farmers.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Leavitt: "President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing again American soybeans, which is something China wasn't doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or the country at the time."

For the record, the taxpayer-funded emergency money Trump is pulling from is meant to help farmers during natural disasters. Not Trump-made disasters. Trump is using your taxpayer dollars to fix a mess he created after his tariffs nearly put so many farmers out of business. And meanwhile, his tariffs are still inflating your grocery bills. The American people deserve better.
The Washington Post@washingtonpost

Breaking news: President Trump plans to announce a $12 billion relief assistance package for farmers, a key segment of his base, according to a White House official. wapo.st/4rI9yRp

Early voting in the NYC mayoral election begins TODAY. If you're a New Yorker, I urge you to vote for Zohran Mamdani — the only candidate who will stand up to the oligarchy and fight for working people. Listen to his inspiring words from primary night.

Without ACA tax credits, a 64-year-old couple making $90K would face an extra $26,000 a year in premiums.   Democrats are working to protect families—Republicans are ready to let these credits expire.

.@SenJeffMerkley and I were just in Israel to discuss the situation in Gaza and press to end the war and return all the hostages. We visited a @WFP site in Israel with enough food to feed everyone in Gaza for 3 weeks. The Netanyahu govt’s weaponization of hunger must stop.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has returned over $20 billion to Americans. Now, a court just gave Trump the green light to dismantle it. We can't let working families pay the price. Corporate scammers, predatory lenders, and shady banks must be held accountable.

JUST IN: DC Circuit Court of Appeals rules President Trump can move forward with dismantling the CFPB — an agency created by Elizabeth Warren.

🚨 At least five Palestinian journalists were among 20 people killed in a “double tap” Israeli strike on Nasser Medical Complex — the largest and only functioning hospital in southern Gaza. Those killed include: ▪️Hussam al-Masri (Reuters) ▪️Mohammad Salama (Al Jazeera) ▪️Mariam Abu Daqqa (freelance/AP), ▪️Ahmed Abu Aziz (Quds Network) ▪️Moaz Abu Taha (NBC) Journalists, doctors, and civil defense crews who rushed to treat the wounded and document the bombing were then murdered in the follow-up strike. Horrific footage shows bodies torn apart in the hospital’s corridors. We’re putting together a thread with more footage and details. Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham shared the moment the second strike hit the hospital, posted below. 🧵

We wrote a long investigation last month about Israel's "double tap" policy, talking to Palestinian paramedics and soldiers who confirmed the army is intentionally targeting rescue workers in a second strike to prevent rescue. This is footage of murder

SCOOP: Trump's EPA just took down its chemical accident tracking tool, weeks after chemical lobbyists demanded the administration shut down the website. The locations of thousands of high-risk chemical plants across the country are now shielded from public view.

Parts of Central Texas are flooding. In under 45 minutes, the Guadalupe River rose 26 feet. At least 43 are dead, including 15 children. Two dozen girls are still missing. No one forecasted it. Months ago, veteran meteorologist John Morales warned: Trump and Musk gutting the Weather Service and NOAA would leave communities blind to storms and unprepared for disaster

I’m seeing a disturbing trend. To my fellow Dems w/their eyes set on congressional seats in ‘26. It’s not enough to just be anti-Trump. The people deserve more—plans, priorities, vision. Otherwise you’re just applying to be a smoke alarm in a house that’s already on fire.

Voter turnout at primary elections are at an all-time low. 😱 In 2022, less than a quarter of registered Illinois voters cast their ballot. Don't miss your opportunity to decide the direction of our party. This time around, we want to see every Dem at the polls! #GOTV
