Hey Dems - your talking points. Cutting funding for children’s cancer research, cutting Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, taking healthcare from millions while spending hundreds of millions to modify an illegally “gifted” 747, throwing a military parade, golfing, cutting taxes for the richest.

If you’re still up at 1AM tonight after the Timberwolves game, you can tune into C-SPAN to watch an important hearing on the GOP tax scam bill. GOP leaders chose the dead of night, because their bill would take away health care from nearly 14 million Americans.

Liam was one of the Americans who helped save the Affordable Care Act in 2017 by telling his family’s story. Now he’s one of the Americans raising his voice again to save Medicaid. I’m in this fight by his side.

Jasmine Crockett exposes the truth— Side by side, she plays footage of the violent January 6th rioters next to Rep. LaMonica McIver at Delaney Hall— a stark contrast between criminals and congressional oversight. The difference couldn’t be clearer.🗣️

This is the weaponization of government—full stop. If you speak out against them—or in this case do your job—they will come for you. What we’re seeing with @replamonica.bsky.social is a political stunt, and we won’t stand for it.

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

The criminal charge against Rep. McIver is a dishonest, politically motivated, and alarming escalation in the executive branch's campaign of retribution against dissent. As a veteran of several arrests & charges during the Civil Rights Movement: Rep. McIver, welcome to the club.

When I grew up in Hawaii, fluoride was not added to the drinking water. I had a lot of cavities. Then I received radiation treatments for my brain tumor. This weakened my teeth further. I got full mouth implants. It was a long, painful and expensive process. This is my Xray.

This head of Trump’s gestapo just told congress that habeas corpus is Trump’s right to detain you, not your right to challenge it. See where this is going?

Republicans are scheduling votes in the DEAD OF NIGHT on Trump's "big, beautiful bill." They advanced their bill last night at 10:30PM. The next vote is scheduled for 1AM on Wednesday. Why hide? Maybe because this bill rips away health care from babies, new moms, and seniors.

“I’m always happy to see a good reckoning for the mainstream press….When is the reckoning coming for the failures to cover Trump effectively? At what point will there be a general acknowledgment…about the way big media failed to adequately convey what would happen if Trump were elected again?”

So the Dear Leader talks to the MLB commissioner and suddenly rose is eligible for the Hall? Why? Afraid of some angry posts? I would consider it a badge of honor to have my name in an unhinged all-caps post by Donny Two-Dolls. Seriously, does anyone have any tips on how to make that happen?

The case in Georgia is precisely what happened in Gilead. This scenario played out during an episode of the oppressive, dystopian TV drama The Handmaid’s Tale (Season 3) — based on the novel by Margaret Atwood. The state keeps a fetus alive after the mother is shot and declared baindead.
