ICE is a danger to every community.
People shot in broad daylight.
Inhumane conditions.
Deporting citizens.
All funded by more than $70B from the GOP’s Big Ugly Law.

Republicans are slashing families’ healthcare for billionaire tax cuts.
They are fighting for Trump and their wealthy donors.
Democrats are fighting for YOU.

Republicans already kicked 10 million Americans off their insurance with the Big Ugly Law. Now, they’re stealing healthcare from nearly 1 million more.
All while their billionaire donors enjoy massive tax cuts.
This cruelty will come to an end with our House Democratic majority.

Families have spent $100 BILLION more on fuel since Trump’s war started.
And for what? No goal, no strategy, and no purpose.
Enough is enough.

After an ICE agent shot Wilber Rafael Garces Perez, he is being held in custody with no information about his health or medical care.
There must be a full investigation and accountability.
Democrats will stop this state-sanctioned terror in our communities.

Inflation is way up, and everything is more expensive.
Why? Trump’s war and pointless tariffs.
The GOP can’t gaslight Americans with blatant lies.
Hassett: Inflation is way down. I go to the grocery store every weekend and I just noticed the hamburger for by barbecue was down two dollars from a couple of weeks ago.
Community note
Hassett's anecdote of one hamburger price drop does not show inflation is way down. BLS data shows CPI up 3.4% year-over-year through August 2026 while ground beef averaged a record $6.92/lb, up 9.6% from a year earlier.

Nothing could be more disrespectful to a service member’s sacrifice than pretending it never happened.
Pete Hegseth is a disgrace and must be fired.
Exclusive: More American service members have died in the Middle East during the ongoing Iran war than the Pentagon has disclosed publicly, according to six U.S. officials familiar with the data.

This is what Republicans slashed Medicaid and SNAP for.
Tax cuts for data centers and AI companies.
While families struggle with rising costs from Trump’s war and tariffs.

Katherine Clark retweeted
Whip Clark: Republicans have risen the cost of groceries and housing. They have made care for people’s families so expensive. They have taken away people’s health care to give tax cuts to the billionaires. And they are, with their corruption, further driving up the cost of living.

Corporate polluters poured millions into Trump’s campaign.
Now, he’s giving them the green light to contaminate our air and water.
For the GOP, it’s always billionaires over working families.
