What are the key issues Senator Kennedy criticizes Democrats for doubling down on?
Senator Kennedy criticizes Democrats for doubling down on three key issues.

Second, he criticizes their stance on men competing in women's sports, undermining traditional gender distinctions in athletics. Third, Kennedy condemns Democrats for prioritizing the rights of illegal immigrants - including those he characterizes as terrorists, murderers, rapists, and cartel members - over the safety of American citizens. He describes these policy choices as 'dumb' and harmful to the country, though politically beneficial to Republicans.

The Trump administration is working to counter misleading narratives from mainstream media that suggest they are targeting Americans' Social Security benefits.

Leavitt states she has been actively fighting against these narratives in Washington D.C. and wanted to 'set the Record straight' about the administration's position.
