This bill is not something Americans will just “get over.” But a message to anyone who votes for this — there’s a good chance people WILL get over YOU.

🚨Please call your representatives today – Especially if they are Republicans. 🚨It’s not hyperbole to say that if this bill passes, it will be the end of American life as we know it. 🚨It will not just affect the poor, elderly and disabled-but every American.

And contrary to widespread belief, if you say under oath that you don’t remember something that you do, in fact, remember, that’s still perjury.

If Republicans pass their budget the uninsured rate in Arizona will go up by 50%. That means more kids missing checkups, more ER visits for treatable conditions, more people choosing between rent and medications. All to give billionaires another tax break.

I just left court and pleaded not guilty—because I am not guilty. We will fight this. Trump’s administration won’t intimidate me or stop me from doing my job. To all who stand up to this administration—do not back down. The facts are on our side. I look forward to the next time in court.

Trump nominated this man to the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, Emil Bove, his former criminal defense lawyer. While at the Department of Justice (DOJ), Bove suggested that the department should tell courts “f*** you” & ignore court orders to carry out President Donald Trump’s aggressive deportations.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

🚨 𝗖𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗦𝗘𝗡𝗔𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗦 𝗧𝗢𝗗𝗔𝗬 The Senate must NOT pass the budget reconciliation bill. It’s a Trojan horse that will: ❌ Slash Medicaid and Medicare ❌ Increase the National Debt by Trillions ❌ Devastate Rural Hospitals and Clinics ❌ Cut SNAP Benefits ❌ Undermine our Courts and the Rule of Law 1/3

This is Trump’s America. It’s not the America I want to live in. Violence against anyone on our soil, let alone violence against a US Citizen by a group of thugs racially profiling our communities is unacceptable! @padilla.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @mikethompson.house.gov @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they knew was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ

All we need are four Republicans in the Senate to stand up to Donald Trump. That’s all it takes to stop his plan to gut Medicaid so he can give a tax break to rich people. Keep up the pressure.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Jeff Bezos is worth $230 billion and is reportedly spending $20 million on a three-day wedding in Venice while sailing around on his $500 million yacht. If he can afford to do that, he can afford a wealth tax and to pay Amazon workers a living wage. Hello?

You might not know her name, but Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough just made some major calls when deciding the fate of Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.” The good news: this big ugly bill got a lot smaller. For a breakdown of what stayed in, what got cut, and why it matters, look no further.

Consumer sentiment is down, again. The economic policies of Trump and Republicans are harming Americans. The American people can feel it.
