The nonpartisan CBO has made clear: the GOP tax bill disproportionately benefits the ultra-rich. Under their "big, beautiful bill," the bottom 10% of earners will see their annual income fall by 2% in 2027 — while the top 10% will see theirs grow by 4%. That is backwards.

Trump is not the most coherent thinker on this, but he’s been very clear. He keeps citing the 1890’s as the peak of American economic strength and what he wants to return to.

The GOP tax bill would whack working people to help pay for a tax cut for the ultra-rich. In MD alone, 160K people could lose health insurance by 2034 — and 129K are at risk of losing SNAP benefits that help put food on their tables. We must defeat this in the Senate.

Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

What are they getting for doing this? What are these ICE agents getting for openly defying a judge’s order? They took him knowing the judge was printing the order to stop them. I can’t take this anymore. This is insanely grotesque.

Since a Minneapolis police officer murdered George Floyd in 2020, the number of people killed by the police each year has continued to rise — and Black Americans are still killed in disproportionate numbers. Our data reporter explains his findings. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/24/u...

A provision in the proposed "big beautiful" spending bill would restrict the authority of federal courts to hold government officials in contempt when they violate court orders. Without the contempt power, judicial orders are meaningless and can be ignored.
