Let’s not snooze on these parts of the Big Blowies for Billionaires Bill: killing all contempt rulings against the government until suits are re-filed with a bond, and making it illegal for states to regulate AI. www.wonkette.com/p/blowies-fo...

This is a senior Justice Department official. Who is in charge of pardons. And also in charge of investigating the “politicization” of the Justice Department.

This is what an authoritarian regime would do. Hidden deep in Trump’s 1,100-page bill that passed the House today is a provision that would block federal courts from enforcing contempt charges against government officials who violate court orders.

🚨 This bill gets more egregious by the minute. Rules just dropped an amended “Big Beautiful Bill” that includes a provision to pressure health exchange plans to drop abortion services except in the case of rape or the life of the mother, even if federal funds are not used to cover the services.

New version of reconciliation bill is out. This "manager's amendment" moves up the date for when Medicaid work requirements start - says strike ‘‘January 1, 2029’’ and insert ‘‘not later than December 31, 2026, or, at the option of the State, such earlier date as the State may specify’’

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

66,000 tons of food are rotting away in USAID warehouses thanks to Trump and DOGE. That's enough food to feed more than a million people in the world's poorest countries for three months — including over 480,000 kids. In what world is starving children "efficient"?

This is one of the cowardly Brownshirt collaborators who let ICE run roughshod over Worcester. Name and shame him. Patrick Hanlon. #PatrickHanlon #NaziCollaborator It is the duty of the police to protect their community, not to assist in a kidnapping.

Dr. Oz says that all you have to do is call up and get a job and you can get health care. So why should anyone who isn't working at a job get Medicaid? Every single one of these rich assholes is completely clueless about how the world actualy works for average people.

Yep, I’m going to “politicize” the FSU shooting because gun violence is political. The reason America has a 26 times higher gun homicide rate than any peer nation is because politicians care more about pandering to gun lobbyists than protecting their constituents.
