Americans don’t want war with Iran, but Trump continues to ignore them.
He promised to lower costs. Instead, families are paying more for everything. Gas, groceries, and health care—all squeezing working families.
Americans are footing the bill for Republican policies.
It is an honor to have the support of Rep. Derek Tran, whose commitment to veterans and local business owners is unmatched. I look forward to partnering with him to tackle the cost of living and deliver for California.
GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?
WARSH: That is, senator.
GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.
Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.
Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.

BREAKING: As Virginians head to the polls to vote on Democrats’ redistricting plan, Steve Bannon warned that “demonic” Democrats will impeach Trump and gerrymander congressional districts nationwide if they win today.
If passed, the map would likely give Democrats a 10-1 advantage in the state.
Central casting? Since when is that about an economic agenda? Warsh is an utter moron — so I’m sure he’ll be confirmed and put in place within the week.
NEW: Common Cause, ACLU, CREW and other pro-voting groups sued the DOJ to stop it from building a national voter database using private voter data from every state.
They called the effort a bid "to take over elections from states and subvert the...midterms" and a threat to Americans' voting rights.
🚨Warren: "Why try to end independence of the Fed? Bc Trump's economic failures are causing him political problems, he wants the Fed to artificially juice the economy Having a sock puppet in charge of the Fed would also give the president access to the Fed's powerful authorities to enrich himself" 🎯

KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed
"Trump’s approval rating has sunk to a dismal 37%; a shocking 63% of Americans now say they disapprove of how he is handling the job," writes @moiradonegan.bsky.social.
Like so much else Trump has done, he’s turned what was once a great department into a fucking mess. And it frankly breaks my heart.

"As these cases moved through the court system, the allegations made against the individuals tended to fall apart under scrutiny."
Sen. Jack Reed to Warsh as he dodges questions about divesting his assets: "Excuse me. I must commend you on the way you can circularly go around questions and not answer them. It's a skill. Unfortunately it's not a good skill for the chairman of the Fed."
Could not be more excited to announce that the OG Bernie Sanders is coming back to Michigan.

Thom Tillis still refuses to blame Trump for anything: "The problem I have is that some US attorney or assistant US attorney with a dream thought it would be cute to bring Chair Powell under an investigation ... the boss said he didn't know anything about it"
