Keep in mind that Pete Hegseth's reported Pentagon spending spree happened just months after Trump and Republicans made devastating cuts to the social safety net in exchange for huge tax cuts for the rich.

And defense spending may soon hit a record $1.5 trillion.

Priorities.

Trump’s Delusions Come at Americans’ Expense The mad king says our suffering is β€˜worth it’

β€œHis delusions of grandeur and compulsion to dominate others inevitably overwhelm the Constitution, decency, political good sense, and Americans’ distress. His utter incoherence at a press conference on Monday suggests he is decomposing before our eyes.”

Senate Dems letter to Trump: β€œWe request Rubio & Hegseth immediately appear under oath - in public hearings - to answer questions the American ppl have about the goals, scope, & end game of this war β€” explain your actions to the American ppl whose sons & daughters are on the front lines of this war”

Tell Your Senators: Oppose Markwayne Mullin for DHS Secretary Contact Congress today!

Kristi Noem was an absolute failure at DHS. A complete disgrace. But Trump’s new pick is somehow worse.

So we need everyone on board as loud as possible telling their Senators to vote no on this disaster of a nominee!

James Talarico: As a millennial, I saw how military disasters like the Iraq war robbed this nation of young lives, billions of dollars, and our moral standing.

We are always told we don’t have enough money for schools but there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.

The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression scam that would make it harder for working people to vote.

The Senate must protect our democracy and our voting rights and reject this bill so we can make our voices heard at the ballot box.
