Trump says “don’t touch Medicaid”—then backs a bill that guts it by $600B?! All while flying private on Qatar’s dime? This isn’t policy. It’s corruption. And if this budget bill passes, the lies become laws. Watch. Share. Rage. @katiephang.bsky.social #WaitADamnMinute #ProtectMedicaid

The Constitution says that Congress must approve gifts to the president and his family from foreign potentates, but apparently the Constitution is mostly decorative these days.

This should be the end of Noem’s career in public life. It almost certainly won’t be, however, which is itself damning.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

Don't let up. Hold their feet to the fire. (DoJ: I do not mean to literally light feet on fire.)

Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country. Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?

Sen. Chris Van Hollen to Marco Rubio: "I regret voting for you."

Oh, ABC. You blew it when you caved the first time and cut a $16m check. Don’t give Shitler another inch or another dime, and tell him to go fuck himself. #GoHarvard #GoMaine

Well done, Miss Feldman.

One of the Dictator in White House’s top lawyers, Sauer, argued to the Supreme Court that the DOJ doesn’t have to listen to Circuit court rulings. Reminder that they’ve already refused to adhere to court rulings. Authoritarianism is not coming, it’s here. Impeach, convict, remove & arrest. STAT.

We’ve become so desensitized to corruption that the Attorney General who spent years lobbying on behalf of Qatar approved a private jet gift from Qatar and it’s not even in the top 10 scandals of the week.

Amen to this! 💙

Well framed

It’s especially galling that AG Pam Bondi personally wrote the memo approving the gift of the Qatari airplane. Her last job was as a lobbyist for Qatar! efile.fara.gov/docs/6415-Ex...

It's hard to adequately describe how scary it is to watch mainstream political journalists barely push back against a sitting U.S. president accepting a $400M plane from a foreign government that would literally be designated as an emergency command-and-control center during a nuclear war.

Next up: a Love Island contestant for the Supreme Court.

This is a political time to wake up EVERYDAY prepared to Speak Truth to Power!

"Under this deal, it will now be cheaper to import a U.K. vehicle with very little U.S. content than a USMCA compliant vehicle from Mexico or Canada that is half American parts. This hurts American automakers, suppliers, and auto workers."

MSNBC: Understand this clearly: when Stephen Miller says they’re looking at ways to suspend habeas corpus, they’re talking about depriving each of us of the right to challenge the legality of our detention by the government.

I knew it! The White House is considering SUSPENDING HABEAS CORPUS. And here I thought I was being paranoid.

This right here......

MERKLEY: Are you gonna launch an investigation of the reported violation of the due process of several hundred people? P: It is not for me to call the balls & strikes M: You haven't read the Constitution? It says 'all persons'...it concerns me you're not familiar w/the core concept of due process

BREAKING: Donald Trump announced that he is naming "Judge" Jeanine Pirro as a top federal prosecutor in DC. Trump does love an alcoholic.

It embarrassing.
