We all know Trump's $5,000 checks aren't coming.
But Democrats had a bill to END Trump's tariffs and actually save families money.
Republicans blocked it.

As a society, we have an obligation to provide lifesaving crisis support to every American in every community – and that’s exactly what the 9-8-8 suicide and crisis lifeline does.
During National Suicide Prevention Month, I took to the Senate floor to raise awareness of this essential and invaluable resource because no one should ever suffer alone.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Trump: I am proud to announce that, effective immediately, I am banning Fake News CNN, MSNOW, and Politico (The recipients of an illegal and ridiculous $8 Million Dollar subscription, an All Time Record, directly from the United States Government, under Crooked Joe Biden, in order to keep them "alive." Seems like corruption to me!), from the White House as a result of their constant "reporting" FAKE NEWS! Media Outlets shouldn't be able to constantly write or report FICTION and LIES when they're covering the President of the United States, the Trump Administration, or the United States of America. Other Fake News Media Outlets to follow.

Nowhere is Trump's lie that he would focus only on the 'worst of the worst' clearer than his assault on TPS.
TPS holders are here legally, they’re vetted, & they contribute to our communities.
America is a nation of immigrants. Trump's attacks on them are cruel & un-American.

American families are facing the highest health care premiums ever, and double-digit rate hikes.
Yet here's RFK Jr. talking about chemtrails at an event hosted by a group whose purpose is to spread conspiracy theories about vaccines—theories that are getting kids killed.
RFK Jr: "We are also looking at chemtrails"
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
RFK Jr. referred to "chemtrails," a conspiracy theory alleging secret chemical spraying by aircraft. No evidence supports this; trails are condensation (contrails) and a 2016 peer-reviewed survey of 77 atmospheric experts found 76 had seen none for such programs.

Trump is withholding the $257 million Congress allocated to renovate the Kennedy Center. Instead, he’s shutting it down because he can’t put his name on the building.
Why is the president more focused on naming monuments after his own ego than he is on governing?
Today we celebrate Constitution Day and reflect on the enduring principles that shape our democracy, protect our rights, and guide our nation forward. Senate Democrats will continue to fight for these values and principles.

Diesel is more than $6 a gallon, grocery prices are through the roof, and millions of Americans are now without health care. Not a chance, Vance.
Senate Democrats retweeted
239 years ago, our nation’s Founding Fathers wrote the United States Constitution – laying the foundation for a system of government that has lasted for generations and the fundamental rights that we hold dear today.
We must never take our freedoms for granted as we carry forward the great vision our founders had on September 17, 1787. Happy Constitution Day!

The Trump 3-step plan:
Destroy the amazing Kennedy Center arts programming.
Throw a tantrum over putting his name on the building.
Tear down the building.
NO WAY!

We're in the midst of an illegal war that's costing Americans $1 billion a day. Gas is over $4/gallon. AI companies are warning of threats to humanity.
And the President is trying to demolish the Kennedy Center because he can't put his name on it.
Sums up the Trump era.
Senate Democrats retweeted
Today is #ConstitutionDay — a celebration of our democracy and a reminder of our ongoing commitment to the democratic norms, freedoms, and liberties established by our Founders and reaffirmed and defended by generations of Americans.

For the first time in 3 years, the Fed raised interest rates to fight rising inflation thanks to Trump's tariffs and his war in Iran
@SenateGOP even had a chance to support my bill to end Trump’s costly tariff tax—instead they blocked it.
Trump and the GOP are doing nothing to lower costs. They couldn't care less.
Senate Democrats retweeted
Spoken like a billionaire who’s never filled his own gas tank a day in his life.
Senate Democrats retweeted
Trump keeps trying to downplay the cost of his Iran war but it has cost everyday Americans over $100 BILLION in inflated gas prices.
@SenateDems will keep fighting to pass our War Powers Resolution to bring our troops home, and to lower costs for the American people.
Senate Democrats retweeted
Another chance to start a new, $100+ billion endless foreign war?
Another chance to send diesel costs skyrocketing to all-time highs?
Another chance to send gas prices above $4/gal?
Another chance to strip health care from millions of Americans?
Another chance to implement tariffs that have done nothing but hurt American consumers?
Another chance to cut SNAP benefits for children?
Another chance to turn the DOJ and FCC into your personal attack dogs?
Another chance to do nothing about AI regulation?
Another chance to enrich yourselves as the economy stagnates and real wages fall?
Another chance to pass your failed voter suppression bill?
I have a feeling the American people will pass.
Senate Democrats retweeted
Trump can put whoever he wants in charge of the Fed, but the same inescapable truth remains:
His economy is awful, and it’s getting worse by the day.
The Fed hiking rates was the inevitable result of his failures and will raise Americans’ costs in countless ways.
