Hawley gets more credit as a "pro-worker populist" for musing about maybe not gutting Medicaid and Social Security this time around every few years before doing it anyways than every single Democratic senator combined does for actually supporting them.

Lol, the senate just straight up bought Murkowski's vote by saying "except in Alaska" to many of the most savage cuts. It's good senatoring on her part but tells you just how bad this bill is going to be.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson predicts that executive power in the United States will become completely uncontainable that our constitutional republic will cease to exist. I couldn’t agree more with her. Fuck you to everyone who voted for the US version of North Korea.

The American people have the right to know, word for word, what's in Trump's Budget Bill. Dems have forced a full reading on the floor and I'm streaming all of it on YouTube.

This Supreme Court can see Trump’s reckless flouting of the law…and still they’re determined to increase his power. They are a real danger to our democratic society.

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

The Trump admin in a nutshell; in order to justify their own mistake, they’re going to release a violent felon with five deportations so he can testify against the guy with no criminal record they mistakenly deported. In other words, the story is always more important than the principle.

A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual PM Viktor Orban warned people to stay away, threatening “clear legal consequences.” But the warnings only turned a modest event into a mass rally against his government

This War Powers vote wasn’t asking Congress if bombing Iran was a good move. And if any member of Congress thinks it’s called for in the future, they can vote to authorize force against Iran then. This vote merely asserted Congress’s Constitutional role. Fetterman et. al. voted against having one.

Federal agents used explosives to enter a U.S. citizen’s home and entered — guns drawn — on a baby, a 6-year-old, and their mother. She believes it’s because her boyfriend attended an ICE protest where he accidentally hit a cop car (and was released by cops). www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/h...

By taking away funding for the 988 Suicide Prevention Hotline for LGBTQ+ Americans, this Administration is making callous, heartless decisions about who may live and who may die. Because that will be the end result: young people in crisis will lose their lives.

To every LGBTQ+ kid watching the Supreme Court erase your stories from the classroom today: I’m sorry. You deserve to see yourself in the world and in the books you read. This campaign of censorship and cruelty will not win. We’re not backing down.

Families in Trump states agonize over GOP’s proposed Medicaid cuts “This is not a luxury. I do not have my daughter enrolled in Medicaid so we can have fancy things. I have my daughter enrolled in Medicaid so we can keep her alive and keep her at home, which I think is the best option for her.”

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied.
