Moskowitz: They have no brakes. They’re drunk with power. And the only way we’re going to send a message to them—the only way we’re going to be able to put brakes on this and stop it—is to make Hakeem Jeffries Speaker.

I hate being right that the goal of many Covid contrarians is to actually limit what Covid precautions, including vaccine access, that others can take. It's not about autonomy when you change who can get vaccines.

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls.

#ProudBlue ⚠️THIS BILL IS REALLY, REALLY DANGEROUS.⚠️ They hid a provision that would protect this evil regime from being held in contempt for not following court orders. YES, YOU READ THAT RIGHT. They snuck in a provision that would stop courts from being able to hold them in contempt.

Early this morning, House Republicans passed Trump's "big, beautiful" budget bill to kick millions of Americans off Medicaid and fund tax cuts for billionaires and big corporations - but not before they snuck in even more changes that will make life harder for the most vulnerable Americans.
