25 states joined together to file a third lawsuit against the Trump admin’s efforts to impose illegal tariffs on American consumers and businesses. We’ve been here before. Last time, corporations were refunded $166B, while consumers were refunded $0. It’s Trump first, not America

More good news. Adam Hamilton - our most viable Democratic candidate for Kansas Senate - has easily won the multi-candidate #KSSen primary. This victory puts Kansas onto the 'on ramp' this November. If a big enough tsunami hits, a seat like this could ride the wave.
