Tariffs are taxes and Americans pay them.
Tariffs Aren’t Tough—They’re Harmful Threatening to slap tariffs on our European allies because they won’t back a reckless grab for Greenland isn’t “strong leadership.” It’s economic self-sabotage. Tariffs are taxes , and Americans pay them. Higher prices at the grocery store, more expensive cars and medicine, and rising costs for small businesses that rely on global supply chains. Farmers and manufacturers get hit hardest when Europe retaliates, just like we’ve seen before.

White House attempts to rewrite history.
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” - George Orwell, 1984

Trump attacks Venezuela
The Trump administration has attacked Venezuela and “captured” its president and his wife. Venezuelan vice president is demanding proof of life. So far, this attack and kidnappings have been condemned by Cuba and Iran. While in America there is a bipartisan request for the constitutional justification for the attack. Trump has accused Maduro of running a "narco-state" and rigging an election. The Venezuelan leader has said Washington wants to take control of its oil reserves,

Trump halts childcare funding nationwide
Happy New Year…Trump just stopped child care funding for the entire country based on an already, years long, ongoing investigation that just recently went viral. At first, I was against this kind of knee jerk, blanketed policy because instead of investigating isolated instances when allegations are alleged, it violates due process because it presumes everyone is guilty; which means that those who need the child care help won’t get it. I thought that was kind of stupid and unc

Current Immigration Policies are Dangerous to our Democracy
When it comes to immigration, all I hear is “they need to come here the right way!” A naturalized citizens is an immigrant who has gone through the legal process to become an American citizen. Denaturalization is the legal process of stripping those citizens of their citizenship. In 2026, the Trump Administration plans to ramp up denationalization to 200 case per month. Since 2017, there has only been 120 denationalization case filed. And, since 1990 there has been an average

Immigration System is Broken
Hard Truth: Our immigration system is broken! And it’s time for solutions that actually work. While some focus only on chaos and division, we need leadership that leads with compassion and a commonsense approach that balances security with our American values. Steps to fix the problem: 1. We Need Smart Border Security: Instead of just rhetoric and blowing up boats in the Caribbean, we need to invest in technology—like upgraded ports of entry, drones and sensor surveillance—to

SCOTUS Upholds ICE Restraining Order
Todat, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) refused Trumps plea to overturn the lower court’s restraining order blocking his use of the National Guard in Chicago. Trump’s attorneys argued that because ICE agents have received resistance, sometimes even violent resistance, and obstruction from Chicago residents that 10 U.S.C §12406(3) empowers him to federalize members of the Guard if he is “unable with the regular forces to execute the laws of the United States.”SC

Due Process is afforded to ALL
The Constitution doesn’t disappear when immigration is involved. Today, a federal judge rightly affirmed that due process applies to everyone — yes, even non-citizens. Judge Boasberg’s ruling makes clear that deportations carried out by the Trump Administration without a hearing violate our basic legal principles of our Constitution. Now the Trump Administration will have to provide due process hearings for all the 137 individuals they sent to the CECOT facility in El Salvado

House Speaker Refuses ACA Vote
House Speaker Mike Johnson and Republican leadership just refused to call a vote to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies — even though they know what happens next. Millions of Americans will see their insurance premiums spike next year. Families will be priced out of the market and be forced to go without insurance. All because GOP leaders chose politics over people. Let’s be clear: These subsidies were keeping costs down for working families, seniors, and small business o

Federal Poverty Line is Unrealistic
What should the new poverty line be set at? The federal government says for a family of four the poverty line is $32,150 per year. That’s under $3,000 a month (before taxes). A Wall Street portfolio manager has recently made the claim that the new poverty line for a family of four should be $140,000. This is a drastic difference in the two numbers. So, lets breakdown the average costs for a Georgia family of four in CD-11. Average rent for a 2-bedroom (a modest family-size ap

Trump didn't save American Farmers
Trump didn’t save American farmers — He broke the system and tried to patch it with a check. A new AP report makes it clearer than ever: Donald Trump’s reckless trade war with China has devastated America’s farming communities — and the $12 billion “aid package” he just announced is nothing more than a Band-Aid on a wound he caused. Trump is once again creating a crisis and then pretending to be the hero with a flashy announcement. Here’s what really happened: Trump’s tariffs
