  • They're trying to kill women for having abortions and even using some types of birth control. I know, it sounds crazy—but that is exactly what this Republican bill coming out of North Carolina would legalize. WATCH ⬇️

  • Today, on Juneteenth, America marks the end of slavery. It was a real and dark part of our history. But Trump wants to rewrite that history and even honor Confederate traitors. It's a disgrace. America is stronger when we confront our history and work to be better.

  • Trump started a reckless war with Iran, created a global economic crisis—and for what? A WORSE deal than Obama made without dropping a single bomb. Apparently, the "Art of the Deal" is to launch pointless wars that end in total surrender and make life more expensive at home.
