Yes, Joni, we’re all going to die. The point is not everyone should die faster and poorer because you gutted their healthcare.

I was at this town hall and saw her say this live. My jaw almost hit the floor. I am running against her to get her the hell out of the senate.

At her town hall, when the crowd says people will die due to Medicaid and SNAP cuts, Joni Ernst responds "well we all are going to die." Fun Fact: She is up for re-election and we WILL hold her accountable.

BREAKING: We're going to court to defend pregnant people's right nationwide to get lifesaving abortion care when they're facing a medical emergency.

Buried in the Republicans’ “Big, Beautiful Bill” is a provision that shields Trump and his Admin from being held in contempt of court. So it doesn’t just cut taxes for billionaires — it also undermines the courts and emboldens an already lawless presidency. We must stop it.

It’s baffling that Trump can justify tariffs against Mexico by citing the cartels while simultaneously cutting a deal with Sinaloa allowing 17 cartel family members safe harbor in the United States.

Democrats seem at a loss for a punchy message that easily conveys how horrible Trump has been. How about "So far, Donald Trump has killed 300,000 people, mostly children, just so billionaires can pay less taxes"?

Conway: A lot of right wing hacks joined the federalist society in these past several years thinking this is the way to get a job in the next trump administration or to get a judgeship. And they made a mistake there. Trump does not like the federalist society

Republicans can only lose 3 Senate votes on Trump's Big Ugly Bill — and these senators are the most vulnerable in 2026: -Collins (ME) -Tillis (NC) -Sullivan (AK) -Husted (OH) -Moody (FL) -Cornyn (TX) -Ernst (IA) If they represent you, tell them to vote NO.  (202) 224-3121

WSJ EDITORIAL BOARD: “.. The Trump EOs are an abuse of executive power that isn’t justified under any fair reading of the Constitution. “.. he would be wise to cut his losses before he goes zero for nine at the Supreme Court.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/opinion/rich...

WATCH: @repmoskowitz.bsky.social calls out the astounding nearly $1 BILLION (!!) for ICE employees in bonuses alone in the Republican budget. Masked anti-constitutional vigilantism pays well these days. 🇺🇸

Sure, it's nice to see Elon Musk "exiting Washington." But he's done so much damage and laid the groundwork for it to continue. Plus, I'm not all that convinced he'll stay out of our politics. (1/2) www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/u...

THREAD 🧵 Internal State Department records show that months of warnings have become a reality: The Trump administration’s sudden withdrawal of foreign humanitarian aid has brought about death, violence and unrest. 1/

very clear warning...

It is easy to forget that when Paul Weiss and the other law firms that capitulated to Trump cut their deals they thought they would be viewed as savvy dealmakers. Now they look like craven fools and gutless cowards.

Was just talking with a group of scholars about all the primary sources and reports that have been disappearing along with the research and teaching losses associated already -- USAID, USIP, Wilson Center, White House transcripts and older files, speeches, reports ... with much more imperiled🗃️

Trump isn’t taking his losses well tonight. Instead of throwing ketchup, he started pardoning gang members, murderers, and convicted felons. Guess he didn’t want to taco ’bout it.

BIG: Court of International Trade blocks Trump’s tariffs in sweeping ruling. It is well reasoned and should survive appeal. Not sure the SCOTUS wants to rewrite the taxing powers for this POTUS. For the ruling see storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Have you told Congress that this should never happen in America yet? Do it here:

Here’s your chance to say Pete Hegseth needs to go: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

What are we even talking about? This shouldn’t even be a thing. Tell the Senate to say hell no to this garbage budget bill: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

The feds are asking judges in migrant cases to dismiss the case, which makes them undocumented — then ICE takes them into custody as part of an expedited removal of undocumented immigrants. @democrats.senate.gov — hold hearings. We demand answers. ☎️ Call your Representatives NOW: (202) 224-3121

All of this is a powerful reminder that Trump is both a fuck up and a lame duck.

Conservatives believe free speech is when they can say what they want and when you can say what they want. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Can't help but feel we're living through an increasingly existential war between spectacle and substance with spectacle winning battle after battle after battle.

The Trump administration is abusing an obscure section of immigration law to punish Mahmoud Khalil and other immigrants for their advocacy in support of Palestinian human rights. But the First Amendment protects everyone in the U.S. ICE must release Mahmoud immediately.

Nothing sadder than a tough guy who needs to remind you he's tough, right after admitting to shielding Russia.

Good thing for Putin he has such a good friend in WH to run cover for him while he continues to bomb civilians.

There are 2 reasons for this: Embarrassment and Dementia. "The White House has removed official transcripts of President Donald Trump’s public remarks from its government website, replacing them with selected videos of his public appearances." open.substack.com/pub/jefftied...

Canada will never become the 51st state. King Charles' speech in the Canadian Parliament today was a declaration of sovereignty. Orange buffoon lied so much that he can no longer distinguish delusion from reality. He doesn't deserve to live in the White House, he belongs in a mental institution.
