In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces. 249 years later, we have this idiot.

So Trump is openly money laundering Venezuelan oil for cash through an offshore bank in Qatar, of which the control of the bank account is his, his alone. He's doing this out in the open like it's normal. He's using the US military to steal the oil. Your tax dollars are funding International theft.

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law. Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it. No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors. That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

Congress is about to vote on a bill that would impose extreme prison sentences on teenagers, people seeking asylum, and families trying to reunite with each other — not for violent conduct, but because of how they tried to enter the U.S. Tell Congress: Vote NO on life sentences for immigrants.

Tell Congress: No Life Sentences for Immigration
Congress is poised to vote on a bill that would further dehumanize immigrants, fuel mass incarceration, and lead to even more government-led attacks, raids, and violence. Urge your representatives to vote no.
