Trump said he will request a $1.5 trillion defense budget for FY27. (Total national security spending is already much higher, blowing past the $1 trillion mark many years ago.)
House Democrats from states that Trump has threatened with National Guard presence voted for the GOP defense policy bill that further enmeshes the military domestically.
- Blue Dog whip Adam Gray of #CA13, in the San Joaquin Valley
- George Whitesides of #CA27, north of L.A.
- Laura Gillen of #NY04, in Long Island
- April Delaney of #MD06, an hour west of Baltimore
House GOP denied votes on all Democratic amendments to the NDAA, including on limiting troop usage.

Anthony D'Esposito's ties to scandal-plagued figures and questionable financial practices show he's out of touch with #NY04. Laura Gillen, on the other hand, has consistently delivered results, from cutting taxes to revitalizing infrastructure. It's time for real leadership that prioritizes people over politics. Support Laura Gillen for Congress! #VoteBlueDownBallot #VoteBlue
Please elect Democrat Laura Gillen to Congress from #NY04 on November 5th.
Your vote is a vote for gun safety, affordable housing, and reproductive freedom!

Anthony D'Esposito's track record is riddled with controversies and allegations of misconduct, from ethics violations to police misconduct. In stark contrast, Laura Gillen has a proven history of transparency and integrity. Let's choose a leader who stands for accountability and honesty.

RT @repdesposito Had an informative tour of the NY & Atlantic Rail Yard to discuss logistics, coordination with other freight carriers, the strain that organized retail crime has created & their mission to train #NY04 first responders.
Will always fight for local businesses on Transport GOP.
RT @repdesposito Proud to have successfully fended off draconian cuts to #Amtrak.
Strengthening commuter rail benefits the economy of #NY04 and the USA.
I will always put the interests of Long Islanders ahead of partisan politics.
