President Trump called the affordability crisis "a hoax." Most Americans, including millions of Republicans, know this isn't true. The costs of health care, groceries, rent and other essentials are skyrocketing while the President spends recklessly on an illegal war.

Americans are footing the bill for Trump’s war with Iran to the tune of tens of billions of taxpayer dollars already, yet Republicans in the House are doing nothing to lower prices or defend the war powers of Congress. Where is constitutional lawyer Speaker Johnson?

The most sacred clause in the Constitution may be the war making clause. Our founding fathers are turning in their grave watching this Republican Congress allow one man lead us into a disastrous, incompetently run war.
