🚨HIT THE PHONES TO SAVE MEDICAID - PLEASE AMPLIFY & ACT 🚨 TODAY the House will be marking up deeply unpopular massive Medicaid cuts. MANY GOP on the committee are in tight districts. Calls and pressure ARE effective here. Call today. Type your zip to get a script ⬇️ OcasioCortez.com/savemedicaid

Classic MAGA.

Republicans swore they weren’t cutting Medicaid. Now even Fox is admitting 13.7 million people will lose coverage. The cruelty isn’t a bug — it’s the whole plan.

It is amazing to me that Dems are pressured to water down their messaging in order to avoid alienating 'centrists,' but Republicans can round up and deport sobbing children without fear of alienating 'centrists.' Says a lot about what we mean when we say 'centrists'

To make matters worse, importers are leaving inventory in China ports. Waiting for tariffs to be lowered. If they are lowered enough, there will be a crush to ship them here and transport them when they get here. That will drive transportation costs way up. = More inflation, post tariffs

America 2025. Bribery edition.

So many layers of corruption.

We are not under invasion. There is no justification for suspending our constitutional rights. Every single American should speak out against this, loudly and forcefully.

The new Surgeon General pick is Dr. Casey Means. She left clinical medicine, pushes "biohacking" to influencers, and hates public health standards. Quite the MAGA loyalty test!

Do your job, Sean.

Trump isn’t gonna like this.

this is my favorite video right now. In every vc im in i have to murmur "guys raised by flys" to myself it's SO funny

@jonlovett.bsky.social on Trump's tariffs: "It is only possible because Republicans refuse to take back the power that they have... The problem is not that we put the worst human being in public life in the most powerful job in the world, it is that he is enabled by Republicans around him."

“See you in court.”

“Do not mock us.”

Indoctrination.

And there you have it.

Breakfast belt-tightening worries McDonald's. #finsky

Torment of Hailfire hand painted after Michelangelo's 'The Temptation of Saint Anthony'. My hands are cramping, my eyes are tired.

Yes, this is a real tweet.

Trump has deported a four-year-old US citizen with a rare form of metastatic cancer without medication or consultation with their doctor.

Page One in San Francisco: California ports are ground zero for worries about the lack of incoming Chinese imports — and the empty shelves to come. “This is going to be worse than during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Trump says that any American who shows “dissension” against MAGA should be “immediately ejected” from their member of Congress’ town halls. This is fascism.

“Pro-life”

Governor JB Pritzker just announced that Illinois will be defunding investments in companies controlled by El Salvador to punish the country for holding American residents without due process. More of this.

Okay Markwayne.

"This is a pattern. If one law firm capitulates, Trump goes after more. If one university, tech billionaire, media company capitulates, he goes after more. If we don't fight him now, when he’s only gone after one legal resident, then we can't act surprised when he ultimately goes after Americans."

The “pro-life” party is defunding childhood cancer research.

With Andor Season 2 dropping tomorrow, it's worth recalling that Season 1 contained the best bit of writing ever in Star Wars.

The Trump administration about to start garnishing the wages of student loan borrowers who are late on their payments.

“They put poison in the food, it makes us sick.“ The reality here is so fucking boring that it doesn’t stick on anyone’s head. What “they” did was make food cheap and “ultra palatable” which is the fancy phrase for “very yummy.” Thats it. A huge part of the problem is that food is too good.

But sure, meritocracy. Got it.

@jasmineforus.bsky.social: Abrego Garcia "a lot less criminal than the person that's sitting in the White House because last time I checked, he didn't have any criminal convictions."

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

It's his way of saying that negotiating any trade deals will take longer than you think.

Trump’s Easter message to America is about all the Americans he hates and has nothing to do with Easter.

Never forget: Sen. Elizabeth Warren kicked off her career as a college professor.

This from @jdcivicscience.bsky.social nails why small town, red America is not turning on Trump.

"This is a pattern. If one law firm capitulates, Trump goes after more. If one university, tech billionaire, media company capitulates, he goes after more. If we don't fight him now, when he’s only gone after one legal resident, then we can't act surprised when he ultimately goes after Americans."

Why even have a brain, any ideas, any ability to express them, any kind of communication with other people, any desire to solve problems or invent anything, any reason to learn, any use for your eyes or your heart, or any reason to teach or create

Wow. Harvard University says they will not comply with Trump’s demand to “audit” the viewpoints of their student body or else be defunded. More of this.

Trump just denied North Carolina’s request for FEMA relief from Hurricane Helene, calling it “unwarranted.”

Scary things that you may have recently read headlines about that it turned out you didn’t have to worry about include: microplastics in your brain, black plastic spatulas, intermittent fasting, and plant based meat alternatives. Also, no, you do not eat a credit card’s worth of plastic a month.

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.
