Wild — they got Senator @lisamurkowski (R) to sell out the rest of 🇺🇸 by exempting Alaska from some harmful aspects of the bill and essentially buying her off with tax incentives for Alaska whalers and clinicians and a higher Medicaid share. More: prospect.org/politics/202...

🚨I just posted EVERY U.S. Senator phone number in DC. We ALL must call our Senators and tell them NO on this bill! 17 MILLION AMERICANS WILL LOSE HEALTHCARE ACCESS TO PAY FOR TAX CUTS. 🤬

It is just INSANE that the GOP is going to tax new solar and wind capacity, as well as a whole bunch of other terrible energy policies in the BBB, when electricity prices have risen 20% since start of 2022, and the grid is ever more fragile. Prepare for a lot of rolling blackouts.

Pasadena California is MAD. ICE tried to grab a mother in front of her kids, as they tried desperately to protect her.😭💔 ICE had no valid warrant. She somehow managed to escape into an assisted living facility, where they gave her temporary safe haven, but ICE came back and took her.😢💔

Trump and Speaker Johnson say they’re not cutting Medicaid. David Sacks is the latest to admit they are. Because they are. By almost $1 Trillion. #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Not to rain on everyone’s ceasefire-not-ceasefire parade, but that wrecking ball of a big dumb bill is still working its way through the Senate and still launching an assault on women, wages, benefits, and the entire working class

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

If Democrats truly want to appeal to young men, they should probably start presenting themselves as the party that definitively won’t draft you into an illegal war.

You’ll notice the American state media completely ignored the orange felon spelling his own name wrong on a social media post for the world to see, if President Biden had done that they would’ve been attacking his mental state on a 24/7 loop. They have failed democracy.

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

We have a madman in the White House who is actively trying to trigger total war. If Jeffries, Schumer, or any other Democratic leaders try to justify this, shrug indifferently, or write a strongly-worded letter and call it a day, they need to step down or be aggressively primaried.

A brazen overreach by Trump, bombing Iran's nuclear sites without congressional nod, ignites cries for impeachment from Ocasio-Cortez and others. Such reckless gambit flirts with endless war, trampling constitutional bounds in a deplorable power grab. #Iran

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

I don’t care what city or town you live in. If these guys jumped out of an unmarked van and grabbed you on the street, would you just assume they’re ICE or FBI? Would you willingly comply with their orders and get inside the van? THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

We’re watching our constitutional rights erode...piece by piece—often in silence. What’s called ‘protection’ is too often quiet control. This isn’t alarmism; it’s reality. If we don’t continue to speak up now...and get louder every day...we may not have the freedom to later.

Under a Trump administration, a war with Iran could unleash a chokehold on free speech. Domestic censorship might spike, with dissenters silenced and citizens pressured to toe the line. Truth could become the first casualty in a storm of control. #3E

Netanyahu began this war with his attack on Iran. In the process, he sabotaged US-Iran negotiations on nuclear issues and assassinated Ali Shamkhani, Iran’s lead nuclear negotiator. The US must not be dragged into another illegal Netanyahu war – either militarily or financially.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?
