A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035.  Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

Scott Pelley—American author and reporter for CBS News for more than 31 years, did not hold back

THIS IS BIG: My latest explains how, in the last few months, Donald Trump has taken affirmative steps to implement martial law and how it will be hard to stop him from a practical standpoint. shero.substack.com/p/trump-embo...

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. When we fight, we win.

Could she be our president please!

60% of American households can’t afford a minimal quality of life. Meanwhile, the 19 richest households saw their wealth increase by $1 trillion in 2024 — the biggest one-year increase ever. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

CBS reporter Scott Pelley: This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”. If you haven’t already shared this, please do.

first they came for the white South Africans, and I didn't speak out— because no one is coming for the white South Africans, you deranged paranoid lunatics. what the fuck is wrong with you

But there is nothing wrong with him

My Statement on the Passing of Congressman Gerry Connolly

Jeffries: There are three big issues with the bill 1. It represents the largest cut to healthcare in American history. 2. It represents the largest cut to nutritional assistance in American history. 3. All of this is being done to enact the largest tax break for billionaires in American history.

Patrick Gaspard was the U.S. ambassador to South Africa from 2013 to 2016. 🇺🇸 🇿🇦

Phang: And you’ve got to appreciate that the congresswoman was able to say, “Look, this ain’t Fox News, buddy. This is Congress.” So if you’re going to be here and you’re going to try to make an allegation somewhere publicly, you better be able to back it up.

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?"

Filthy crooks

Some sad news. Korra’s cancer came back aggressively and she didn’t make it. She was the sweetest pup, a friend to all cats and human children, and she loved making new friends. We adopted her five years ago when her original owner died and hoped we would have more time with her.

Other than Mary, as far as I can see this entire family is just cruel and broken. And in this case, painfully dumb.

Ah yes, the “golden age.”

One time for the person who stole my credit card number to buy musical equipment and sign up for dating apps. May all your dates take place at Kid Rock concerts.

Klobuchar on Stephen Miller saying the administration is considering suspending habeas corpus: "He's doing it because they don't want to focus on what's really in front of them, and that they have created havoc in our economy ... no, they're not gonna reverse habeas corpus in the Congress."

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful Lefty Mums on here!!

My mother passed away 43 years ago, but not a day goes by that I don't think of her. She taught us compassion for those who are most vulnerable and to fight for those who are powerless. To all the mothers, grandmothers, and maternal caregivers, Happy Mother's Day.

As we begin another week, my law firm is litigating 52 voting and election cases in 23 states. Democracy remains on the docket.

As the world collapses, I water my garden.

ABC News: Air traffic control problems continued at Newark Liberty International Airport on Sunday morning after an equipment glitch, officials said.

But your kids can’t have more than two dolls

Thank you to my Governor @govpritzker.illinois.gov for protecting the data of people like my brother Chris. And standing against fools like RFK Jr.

Half of new moms have health insurance thanks to Medicaid. Let’s keep fighting to protect it.
