Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

The GOP’s big ugly bill would rip health care away from 14 million people, slash programs that help people pay for groceries, cancel clean energy plans, and— just to rub salt in the wounds for struggling families—use those cuts to hand more money to the richest men in the world.

They shattered her car window. They cuffed her in front of her daughter. With no warrant. No charges. No evidence. No due process. We must demand Noemi’s release. #DisappearedInAmerica #AbductedByTrump

For all the “Russia participates in the START treaty which is why the bombers we’re in the open” level of cope out there: No they don’t. They suspended their participation in 2023. They just thought the bombers we’re safe

Yup, and Dems need to start saying this. It's a great time to be a criminal, there's no more fed law enforcement, they're all sipping coffee cosplaying in military gear while waiting for law-abiding migrants on their way out of immigration hearings.

Stephen Miller said recently that American scientific achievement in the mid-20th century owed little to immigrants, given immigration quotas at the time. Someone should tell him that from 1945- 1974, 16 of the 30 U.S. winners of the Nobel in physics were immigrants www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

Homeland Security has gone full fascism. This is why also we are seeing them show up with ICE. DHS raided @nadler.house.gov office and arrested one of the aides.

Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.

You can't refute or deny that this isn't taking place across 🇺🇸 this very moment. When Government agents are entering your home, job, church, streets and arresting you without a warrant that's a sure sign the constitution is no longer in play and the courts are being ignored. That is a dictatorship.

“No! Mis hijos estan en La escuela! (My kids are in school!) Por favor!” Tennessee’s @davidwontshutup.bsky.social on a very difficult video to watch of ICE grabbing a mother outside immigration court in Texas.

This is how it’s done! FRIDAY: South Park, San Diego, neighbors weren’t having it. When ICE rolled up on an Italian restaurant in unmarked cars and started grabbing workers, the community hit the streets. (Sound up)

Popok: I don’t want to live in a country where I wake up and the president and his henchmen are sending other human beings—and they are outsourcing them for cash. Paying cash to third-world countries that don’t respect our values.

In 2022, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) sued a payday lending company for fleecing servicemembers. With CFPB largely dismantled due to cuts, I went looking at what the company was up to nowadays. Turns out it might still be at their old ways www.courtwatch.news/p/128-come-f...

One nation under God Two classes of people under the law

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

This is creepy. An TX officer used a nationwide database to search for a woman who gave herself an abortion. The officer conducted the search using a database of license plate readers created by a company, Flock. The search included states where abortion was legal. www.rawstory.com/texas-aborti...

They were always going to go after the easy targets. These lazy fucks don’t want to chase actual criminals.

It’s been around since 1983.

DHS lawyers are doing an end run around asylum law while masked ICE agents detain citizens, deport sick children and terrorize immigrants doing it the right way. We’re a nation of immigrants searching for the American Dream. This xenophobic purge is lawless and un-American.

Good article focusing on how California’s House Republicans have placed themselves in the hot seat over their votes to cut Medicaid. Up to 3.5M Californians could lose their Medicaid coverage…and many of them are represented by Rs who voted to harm them. www.sfgate.com/politics/art...

These men were building us homes. The violence is being committed by ICE — masked men, no ID, no warrants. Don’t believe the rhetoric being pushed by violent criminals about ‘violent criminals’ cause it’s all BS. Call your Reps and demand they hold hearings, sanctioned or not. This needs to stop.

A glacier partially collapsed in Switzerland, burying the village of Blatten in a huge landslide of ice, rock, and mud after residents had been evacuated. Scientists called the collapse of the glacier “unprecedented” in the Swiss Alps.

RIP Brazilian social documentary photographer, photojournalist, UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Sebastião Salgado. Lélia Wanick & Sebastião Salgado planted 2 million trees in 18 years, returning 172 bird species, 33 mammals, 15 amphibians, 15 reptiles and 293 plant species. #Conservation #EarthKeepers

Trump admin has canceled a contract awarded to Moderna for the late-stage development of its bird flu vaccine for humans, as well as the right to purchase shots, the drugmaker announced on Wednesday.

Trump's HHS is pulling more than $700 million it had committed to Moderna to help develop a bird flu vaccine. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

It’s always “two weeks”

Ursula von der Leyen, "The diary of Anne Frank." "A painful reminder to Europe to be vigilant and unyielding towards all those who see hatred and want to divide our society" "Europe knows this path all too well. And never, never again must we embark on this path"

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

Whenever a politician claims that God is on their side, all they are doing is reducing God to a mere tool of manipulation in order to get people on their side. It is blasphemy. It is using God’s name in vain. Christians should be the loudest ones opposing such behavior rather than cheering it on.

Treating a new Covid strain like a crime and not a public health issue is deranged.

Meltdown on Truth Social in 3, 2, 1...

She is an American citizen, the daughter of a U.S. Navy service member from Illinois, who was stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War. This is fascism, plain and simple.

A viral post is spreading fear on all platforms, supposedly from Liz and Me, about a nonexistent bill—just like the far right used to do. We cannot become what we’re fighting. The truth still matters. We win by being better, not louder. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/dont-fight...

The Dept. of Justice has filed its first voter suppression lawsuit aimed at disenfranchising voters. This is a critical juncture for democracy. Paige and I discuss the implications and how it echoes claims made by failed state Supreme Court candidate Jefferson Griffin. youtu.be/8XEW-Ga428M

Kamala Harris on “the big, beautiful bill:” “It’s an agenda...a narrow, self-serving vision of America...where they punish truth tellers, favor loyalists, profit from their power, and leave everyone else to fend for themselves.” Nailed it! 🔥

Over the rest of 2025, a lot of people who tell themselves "everything's fine" because they haven't been personally affected by Trump's evisceration of the government are going to find themselves personally affected.

If you’ve never been woken up at 3am to consult on the least bad treatment option for a pregnant COVID patient in the MICU, your “recommendation” means nothing to me

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

No matter how slippery the SpaceX fans get in their defenses ("you don't understand, we learned so much!") the fact is these tests are waaaaay past the "experiments sometimes fail" stage. These are tests of what's supposed to be a working design and build. But it doesn't work. It blows up.

DEI….

DO NOT TRAVEL TO USA with too much clothing 👀 A 🇺🇸 military wife from Australia denied entry, body cavity searched, strip searched, forced to stay in a prison with criminals overnight before deportation. youtu.be/0cYsSl-twEg?...
