The largest cuts to SNAP and Medicaid in history weren’t enough to pay for Republicans’ tax breaks for the wealthy. Next on the chopping block? Medicare.  www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

I voted NO on their “big, beautiful” bill because it will strip health care from 14 million Americans—including nearly 130,000 people in my district who rely on Medicaid.

The Trump administration has agreed to pay the family of Ashli Babbitt. American taxpayers will now be forced to give likely millions of dollars to the family of a January 6 insurrectionist who stormed the Capitol.

why waste time writing one good post when 22,502 bad posts do trick

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

Hands off our healthcare! Hands off our public education! Hands off our jobs! Hands off my 401k! Hands off my neighbor who has committed no crime! Hands off those Congressional seats that we are coming for in 2026!

CHICAGO…

Oh wow: Portland Oregon is NOT KIDDING #handsoff

Last night, every Senate Democrat voted for my amendment calling for a $17 an hour federal minimum wage while every Republican but 1 opposed it. The movement to raise the minimum wage to a living wage is growing. In 2025, a job must lift you out of poverty, not keep you in it.

WOW: Thousands are currently protesting in Boston. This is just one of more than 1200 'Hands Off' protests underway today across the nation as people rise up against the Trump-Musk regime. (via Rob Way)

I feel like this tweet did not get enough attention this week

NEW via FOX: Delta plane, Air Force jet nearly crash in 'loss of separation' during Arlington National Cemetery flyover The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is investigating after a Delta Air Lines plane nearly crashed midair with a T-38 Air Force jet Friday near DC

BREAKING: While major news outlets and law firms fall all over themselves to bend the knee to Trump and Musk, I am standing up and suing DOGE for transparency. www.muellershewrote.com/p/im-suing-d...

Here's the last 40 seconds of Bulls/Lakers. Insane ending.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Trump on Wednesday announced 25% tariffs on all cars shipped to the United States, a significant escalation in a global trade war. www.cnn.com/2025/03/26/e...

AOC: In every single stop that Bernie and I have had in the past couple of days… every single stop has completely blown out all attendance projections.

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

GOP lawmaker Justin Eichorn (R-MN) has been arrested on felony charges for soliciting sex from a teenage girl. He had previously spread claims that Democrats and LGBTQ people were trying to groom children.

Of course, having to stay in DC past today would have interfered with Schumer’s book tour which begins Monday.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

A 10-year-old U.S. citizen girl recovering from brain cancer, was detained at an immigration checkpoint while heading to an emergency medical checkup and promptly deported. Thanks to Trump and Musk. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Donald Trump campaigned on the fact that he believed Kamala Harris would cause a recession. In reality, the only candidate who would have caused a recession is Donald Trump, and the American people are feeling it today.

Let them play these stupid games while the economy crashes. Don’t take the bait. Ted can talk about Ben & Jerry’s while we talk about people having to work another 5 years because their retirement got wiped out by Trump. The economy!
