Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

🚨U.S. inflation rises to 3% in September as prices increase at the fastest rate since January. The White House says they will likely not release October’s inflation data next month, blaming the shutdown.

Every independent analysis is clear: the budget bill passed early this morning by the House GOP will gut essential programs like Medicaid and SNAP for working Americans, and make the ultra-wealthy richer. We must do everything we can stop this bill in the Senate.

Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” is 1,116 pages long so bloated with additions it’s barely about budget reconciliation anymore. The goal? Make it so long and dense that no one reads it. We broke down part of it this weekend and are working on more. Updates coming soon.

President Trump and the GOP lied to Americans about their "big beautiful bill." Tax on tips? Still there. Tax on overtime? Still there. Tax on Social Security benefits? Still there. The Trump administration continues to help the wealthiest Americans instead of the working Americans.

On today's Democratic Daily Download, @RepJahanaHayes explains how Republicans are trying to cut $230 billion from food assistance.   House Democrats are fighting back with the Hands Off Medicaid and SNAP Act to protect these basic needs programs.

It really shouldn’t be a surprise that the pope’s stated values are antithetical to Republicans because the teachings of Jesus as I learned them in Catholic school contained a lot more empathy and caring than what we see from the modern GOP

After performing with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show, Sitting Bull returned to Standing Rock Agency in South Dakota. Indian agents feared that he would support the Ghost Dance movement and shot and killed him during a struggle with his followers when they attempted to arrest him. /end

For a while Sitting Bull’s band lived peacefully among plenty of buffalo in what is now Saskatchewan. But the young braves grew restless and made trouble with neighboring tribes. His band dwindled to just 187 people and in 1877 Sitting Bull was compelled to surrender and move to a reservation. /3

Sitting Bull and his people had been living in Montana for almost a year when the Army stepped up its harassment campaign. Buffalo had become scarce and the band had to stay on the move, forcing Sitting Bull to leave his homeland for the “Grandmother Country.” /2

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1877: Sitting Bull leads his followers into Canada to evade the U.S. Army. Sitting Bull’s warriors had helped defeat Custer at Little Big Horn, and he believed that as victor he should be dictating the terms of peace. The Army had other ideas. /1
