Utah Sen. Mike Lee said changes are coming to his proposed public land sale, which is currently facing a roadblock after the Senate Parliamentarian rejected it Monday evening. via @utahnewsdispatch.com www.newsfromthestates.com/article/mike...

Emil Bove is nominated to be a federal appeals court judge: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/u...

So many experts warned of this. CNN ‪‪@natashabertrand.bsky.social: Pentagon's "Defense Intelligence Agency has assessed that the core components of Iran's nuclear program are largely intact and that Iran's nuclear program has essentially only been set back by months."

Raise your voice for every baby who shouldn’t go hungry. Raise your voice for every senior who shouldn’t be kicked out of a nursing home. Raise your voice for every American who shouldn’t lose their health care. Make those calls. Pressure your senator. Keep it up.

Vote. Them. Out.

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) handed this flyer out to his Republican colleagues showing that 600,000 North Carolinians are at risk of losing their health care and he is still going to vote for it. He doesn't work for us. Call his office at 202.224.6342 and tell him #DontBombMedicaid

"They'll get over it." That's apparently the closing message from Senate Republicans before they vote to take away health care from millions of Americans — all to pay for tax cuts for billionaires. Unbelievable.

There is a reason that even Josh Hawley is sounding the alarm: the Republican plan will force rural hospitals across the country to close. #DontBombMedicaid

ICE throwing smoke bombs

If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge. Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden. This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy. It’s not America. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

The Big Beautiful Bill Is In Major Danger As Dozens Of House Republicans Say They're Willing To Kill It https://twp.ai/4ioqpR

ah, but is it as scandalous as biden old?

📣 📣 📣 Join our DIGITAL RALLY now! Here we go again. Massive tax cuts to the wealthy, the well-off, and the well-connected. And who pays the price? Pregnant women on Medicaid, children who rely on SNAP to eat. #DontBombMedicaid Toolkit ➡️ social.demcast.com/toolkit/Medi...

Mitch McConnell has a net worth of up to $52 million, and has had high quality government-financed healthcare for decades. Losing your healthcare, losing your loved ones, losing your life, isn’t something people should be told “get over it.”

To recap: Emil Bove, whose confirmation hearing for a lifetime judicial appointment to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals is on Wednesday, planned to tell the courts “fuck you” if they stood in the way of 47’s deportation campaign.

ICE isn't targeting criminals. They’re arresting nonviolent, law-abiding mothers, fathers, and kids, tearing families apart. Asylum is a legal path to immigration, but Trump is voiding asylum claims so masked ICE officers can meet mass deportation quotas. This is not the America I know.

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?

So let me see if i got this right: Trump attacks the nuke sites. Didn’t completely destroy them yet so before he could go back for round two to finish them off he calls for a cease fire? Is this right? Wow. Brilliant

@jahimes.bsky.social: "I certainly remember when George W. Bush landed on an aircraft carrier and declared ‘Mission Accomplished.’ Well, a couple of years later, his approval ratings are 26%, we've got 4400 dead Americans because of Iraq. So let's wait before the champagne comes off the ice."

“They’ll get over it” – Mitch McConnell when millions lose their health care and hospitals could shut down. Absolutely heartless. Public sentiment matters. Keep being loud and fighting back. We’re in this together.

Interesting.

#ProudBlue We cannot let Trump’s madness with Iran & Israel distract us from the damage he is trying to inflict here with his “Big Hideous Bill.” This bill will strip healthcare & food away from the most vulnerable, all while giving more tax breaks to the rich. Call your Senators (202) 224-3121

#ProudBlue “In the latest legal loss for the Trump administration, a federal judge on Monday evening ordered executive officials to restore grants they terminated to the University of California.”

And there it is.

So #MoscowMitch is being a slimeball again. He knows their budget is cutting Medicaid but says “they’ll get over it”. Will you get over it? #ProudBlue

MAGA voters did this.

CNN: Three sources tell CNN that according to an early U.S. Intelligence assessment, the U.S. Military strikes on three of Iran's nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country's nuclear program and likely only set it back a few months

NEW: NSF will be kicked out of their building. Announcement will be made tomorrow by HUD Sec. and Governor of VA. HUD will take over the NSF building over the next two years. NSF staffer: "There is no planning for NSF, no identified future location, appropriation for a new building or a move."

How much did we just spend to put Iran's nuclear program back a "FEW MONTHS" - 💲hundreds of millions💲 But we can't afford basic human rights at home McConnell can fuck off - WE WILL NOT GET OVER IT! #DontBombMedicaid you evil fuckers!!

AOC is quite on point with this.

Hey everyone, just a reminder: A little more than a week ago, a Republican terrorist killed two people and injured two more in an effort to kill enough democrats to capture the Minnesota Legislature

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the Secretary of Health & Human Services says he has no idea United Healthcare has been defrauding Americans out of $80 BILLION a year. If we’re looking for waste, fraud, and abuse, this is the largest source of waste, fraud & abuse of public dollars & public insurance.

Here’s an update from the local news station from the video footage of ICE capturing a marine’s undocumented father while at work as a landscaper. His father asked about his unfinished landscaping job because he is such a hard criminal 🙃. Hard work is his crime.

THEY F*CKING TOOK THE ICE CREAM MAN! The photo says it all. Masked ICE goons grabbed Enrique Lozano in front of a Culver City, CA church. A Community Coalition helped the family identify the abandoned cart, locate his belongings. For 20 years, loved in the community. "Hardened criminals" - my ass.

This measured, dignified & statesmanlike response proves conclusively that he is a role model for our nation's youth & should counter the narrative that he is an impulsive, infantile, psychologically-damaged dimwit. #TacoTuesdayTirade 🌮 🤬

A win! Thank you to everyone who spoke out! After facing bipartisan resistance, the Senate Parliamentarian, ruled that Sen. Mike Lee’s proposal to sell off millions of acres of federal land cannot be included under reconciliation rules.

So dark

The President took the United States to war with Iran without the authorization of Congress.   He claims the military operations were a success but is now refusing to brief the Congress or explain his actions in a timely manner.   Why is there a delay?

Rep. Becca Balint gives us an update about the war between Israel and Iran. Members of Congress have still not received a briefing. They just canceled the the classified intelligence briefing on Iran for the House! This is insane!

Once again, Trump has shown contempt for the constitutional order. And once again, Congress seems poised to bend the knee.

NEW: Sen. Duckworth backs the War Powers Resolution after Trump’s illegal strike on Iran. “I ran for Congress because of this issue… to make sure our leaders fully consider the true costs of war — not just in dollars and cents, but in the sacrifices and blood of our Troops.”

What!? The abortion ban affects republican women too? You don’t say… www.comicsands.com/florida-kat-...

Mad love & gratitude to The Pitt star Noah Wyle for speaking out on the devastation Republicans’ cuts to Medicaid will have on millions of Americans. Call your senators before they vote this week! #DontBombMedicaid

NEW: FBI Abandons Stephen Miller’s Migrant Round-Up in Humiliating Blow Federal investigators are being pulled off migrant duty to ensure that potential Iranian terror threats are spotted and thwarted.
