Rep. Ashley Hinson loves to talk about "listening to Iowans." But when Sarah—an Iowa mom facing cancer—asked for a few minutes, she ran away and hid behind her staff. So much for listening.

Neera Tanden: Americans are angry because Trump has raised costs through tariffs and war with Iran, and taken away millions of Americans' healthcare.

Neera Tanden: JD Vance's attempts to distract from reality are falling flat because everybody knows who's policies are raising Americans' cost of living.

Neera Tanden: Republicans made their bed with Donald Trump last year when the majority of them voted to fund ICE, gut healthcare, and raise costs for Americans.

Two US citizens. Both underage. On their way to enlist. Is this what it looks like to make America great again?

Rep. Hinson has voted repeatedly to continue Trump's war, and Iowa farmers are paying $6 a gallon for diesel as a result. "Out of sight, out of mind" — unless you're the one paying the bill.

Trump doesn't have the right to lecture others on Christian values when he deems the deaths of 18 service men and women in his illegal war as "small potatoes."

Reminder: It's NOT common sense to vote to uphold illegal tariffs and then tell small businesses in your district to just "deal with it."

Did they think we'd forget that they cut our healthcare for billionaire tax cuts or...?

Did Rep. Bresnahan hope we wouldn't notice that the mother he introduced last night was from Baltimore and not his own district?

Derrick Van Orden has some nerve bringing up healthcare at tonight's Republican convention. More than 20,000 Wisconsinites have lost healthcare after Derrick's vote on the “Big Beautiful Bill” last summer.

No matter what Rep. Bresnahan said tonight at the Republican Convention, he voted to cut healthcare for billionaire tax breaks and Trump's forever war raising costs for everyone in Pennsylvania.

According to Trump, only Americans who are "backwards and poor" oppose data centers. Weird way to talk about your own base*, sir. *According to Gallup, 63% of Republicans oppose data centers in their communities

If it looks like a forever war, and it sounds like a forever war....it's probably a president that was full of it when he promised no new wars.

Just a reminder that the overwhelming majority of national debt in the US is thanks to Republican presidents giving endless tax cuts and tax subsidies to the already very, very rich.

While Americans pay the cost of Trump's war with Iran, Trump's making money off of it...guess that's why he thinks "affordability" is a made-up word.

"He's going to have to be held accountable. He's a disgrace." Retired Master Sergeant sounds OFF on Pete Hegseth's many failures as Secretary of Defense.

He'd rather (literally) blow up all $73 million than spend it on anything that benefits American families. Sad!

Trump and Hegseth want $73 billion more to continue their endless war with Iran while Americans pay for it at the pump and grocery store.

"I believe he will be prosecuted for war crimes." We asked career military veterans what they think about Pete Hegseth's performance as Secretary of Defense. They didn't mince words. WATCH:

It's clearer than ever: Trump's turned his back on American farmers. Listen as Patrick Brown, a farmer from North Carolina, talks about the struggles farmers are facing under this administration.

Neera Tanden: the ability to criticize a policy of the federal government should not be subject to a defamation lawsuit by the president's personal lawyers.

Donald Trump is more focused on putting his name on things than he is on lowering costs for American families. That's pathetic.

Instead of having the backs of our service members in crisis, the Pentagon is now targeting at least one of the sailors who jumped overboard on the USS Lincoln by bringing him up for disciplinary action.

Prices are soaring. Servicemen and women lack support and leadership. Small businesses and farmers are hurting, and there's no end in sight to Trump's war with Iran.

Pete Hegseth is a "disgrace" and a "clear and present danger" to our country and our servicemen and women who are fighting Trump's war.

Donald Trump is entitled to his own opinions. He's not entitled to his own set of alternative "facts" — and if we have to remind him of that in a court of law, we will.
