Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

We need a new term for what is happening under Trump and with the Republican Party. They are mindlessly blowing up government and government services not to save money but to destroy. It’s nihilism mixed with autocracy. Call it nihilocracy.

Pretty wild to make your entire case about how immigrants are lawless freeloaders, but having to go to their workplaces and court hearings to arrest them.

President Trump said on Friday that he had fired the director of the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, calling her “a highly partisan person, and a strong supporter of DEI.” It is unclear if the president has legal grounds to fire the director, Kim Sajet.

This is so profoundly stupid I could scream. Their statement criticizes funding for mRNA vaccines—which have already demonstrated incredible promise for cancer. We need more funding and research in this area, not less, you absolute morons. The brain drain and self-destruction of the US continues.

3 guys, none with infectious disease or pedatric expertise, just ran roughshod over normal procedures to block COVID shots for kids, pregnant people. This is so awful & insane & we should treat it as such. Reporters, you're on notice. Both sides this at your peril & watch your credibitlity evaporate

Insane. Slight young woman traveling with mom to see U.S soldier husband. Strip-searched twice. Disappeared in the afternoon into the next day. No calls. Given no food. Finally, before being put on a plane, had 3 min. call w/husband who cried inconsolably. Husband has decided to leave the Army.

Boyle: "This is really the breaking news ... because of the size of the deficits, because of the paygo act, that would trigger sequestration of Medicare, and it would total over $500 billion. The official figure that CBO confirms is $535 billion in cuts to Medicare."

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

You can’t make this up. Republicans snuck a “tanning bed tax break” in their bill—the same bill that’s going to make hospitals go under and take away hospital beds. They’re too ashamed to even say it, too.

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

44% of all American children benefit from Medicaid or SNAP. Republicans' budget guts both programs. Yes: the so-called "party of family values" is putting 34 MILLION kids' health care access and food security at risk.

So here's the answer: it was part of a "promotional special section" (read: advertising) written for nobody, in no place, that nobody gave a shit about. Which is basically how journalism got into the mess it's in now to begin with.

Their goal is to leave America sicker, poorer, more desperate and less free. Easier to impose Christofascism on a broken people.

And when they've broken everything and made people's lives worse in dozens of different ways, the GOP response is going to be complaining that the government is broken and we need to try New Things instead. No, it was working. They broke it. Don't let them weasel out of responsibility.

Yesterday my hometown was hit with massive tornadoes. We weren't expecting them in places that have never been hit before and have no idea who will help us. FEMA is all but dead and our state is run by Republicans that hate the city. This is the canary in the coal mine. My latest.

There are many reasons we're here in fascism, but one of the biggest is that nearly all members of the media have spent the last ten years not asking Donald Trump a follow-up question.
