June 14 is FLAG DAY! It's also Trump's birthday, and he is throwing himself a $90 million military parade as a way to celebrate. Just like Putin and Xi and Kim Jong Un. Keeping up with cruel dictators is eay on the American Taxpayer's dime. m.youtube.com/watch?v=pz_b...

We're Trump and Elon's mommy and daddy now... Trump wants a big military parade for his birthday so he can play king. Elon wants to build a big dome over the US and shoot over rockets that pretend to go to Mars.

Overnight, House Republicans passed a budget that would give huge tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy at the expense of everyone else. Now, it's on to the Senate. Call your senators and demand they do everything in their power to stop this theft: 202-224-3121

House Republicans smuggled this👇attack on the federal judiciary into their reconciliation bill. Courts rarely require plaintiffs to post security, so this provision, if passed into law, would render a vast number of existing judgments—including Boasberg's contempt order—effectively unenforceable.

Republicans in Congress really want to take food out of the mouths of hungry children and medicine away from the sick to fund tax cuts for people who don't need them. Tell your Senators: Vote NO on the Trump budget.

I am distressed by how many people do not understand what Senate Republicans did last night. It's true, of course, that the Congressional Review Act isn't subject to the filibuster. But California's emission waivers are not subject to the Congressional Review Act! slate.com/news-and-pol...

A clearly insane and cognitively diminished President Trump rambled at length about a far-right conspiracy theory in front of the president of South Africa at the White House yesterday. Now here's eight articles about Biden's halting pauses and memory lapses.

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.

One employee who had taken the deferred resignation deal was furious to learn their job was on that list of vacancies. They had not wanted to resign from their job but felt forced to do so after repeated warnings of mass layoffs ahead.

This is in some ways more scandalous than Dick Cheney’s politicization before the Iraq war. Trump made a transparently bogus claim in order to get emergency power to render legal immigrants to a concentration camp. When spooks debunked the claim, Tulsi started firing people.

Unreal. The Trump administration is disappearing migrants to places that aren't even their origin countries, then refusing to say which countries they were sent to by claiming this is "classified," then refusing to say why the info is classified:

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for nine days. What the HELL? 1/

It’s Disgusting that we have an “IMPOTENT” Congress! The Emoluments Clause of the U.S. Constitution prohibits anyone holding an "Office of Profit or Trust" under the U.S. government from accepting any "present, emolument, office, or title" from any foreign state without the consent of Congress.
