The dumbfuck faking being president of the United States doesn't know the difference Africa the continent & the country of South Africa. But he is really concerned about the white folks who own 72% of the countries property are victims of genocide. Lying POS

CBO says Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill will add 3.8 TRILLION to the national debt. Fiscal responsibility, my ass.

McGovern: We live in the richest country on Earth and not a single kid in this country should go to bed hungry, not a single damn one and especially when Republicans are giving millionaires and billionaires a big fat tax break.

FUCK YOU AMERICA! FUCK YOU MAGA! That is what this bill should be called. This will devastate Red America and the majority of MAGA voters. This will hurt everyone with the exception of the extremely wealthy. This bill is proof that half this country voted against their own self interests.

Boyle: We just verified with the congressional budget office and of 13.7 million Americans who will lose their health care because of their bill, exactly zero are undocumented immigrants

Wouldn't it be great if our local media asked Rep #Ciscomani one damn question about his vote to cut Medicaid for 131K people on his #AZ06? Don't hold your breath.

Splash pads are great, but AZ children really need to learn to swim and municipalities must operate public pools. Pretty sure these are built instead bc they are cheaper..

Accidentally overdrew my checking account by $13. Before CFPB banksters woulda socked me with $50 at least in fees. We're gonna miss that agency when it's "doged"...

Billionaires get everything, and we get screwed. It's like an apocalyptic feudal system.

It is very difficult if not impossible to exaggerate how catastrophic this bill is for poor and struggling Americans and for our economy

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. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

@warren.senate.gov: "They're fighting over how many children should go hungry so that Mark Zuckerberg can buy another Hawaiian island."

Remember SECVA Collins claiming Christians are being persecuted? It's all projection with these people. buff.ly/ISu5MIP

The Interior Department is rescinding an order that would have phased out the sale of plastic water bottles and other single-use plastics in national parks and on public lands.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

Calling it now, we're heading into a bozo summer

McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

I’ve got breaking news from sources in the Pentagon. Hegseth has invited what appears to be the entire Pentagon workforce to a Christian prayer and worship service in the official Pentagon auditorium during duty hours in violation of the First Amendment and military regulations. I have the story.

The Dems refusal to replace these octogenarians - will ensure we lose.

Haven’t been since Dec 2024, will never return. No #Woke Go #Broke

They don't give a fuck about us.

Now we owe Qatar...illegal.

South Africa’s president looked weak as hell & Trump was just unhinged. The ambush & conspiracy theory video was peak boomer cringe. The MSNBC reporter asking about the plane in the middle of it was a dumbass. The entire US / South Africa meeting was a shit show today. Embarrassing to all involved.

Rep #Ciscomani is about to nuke #Medicaid for over 131K of his constituents - most of which are under 65. Blow his damn phone up. (520) 881-3588 #BigBadBill #BUB

WYDEN: Did you promise any tax promoter you would help them if you got confirmed? LONG: I can answer that with an affirmative no W: So you didn't meet w/ anybody when you were in town for the inauguration & promise help? L: Not that I can think of. And I had food poisoning W: We have it on tape

“The press doesn't give a shit.”

I have odd feelings about Hulu's adaptation of The Handmaid's Tale, namely that they made June & co. far too Girl Boss Rebel when the entire point of the novel was kind of "if things do ever get this far gone, there is very little that most people will be able to do"

DURBIN: How can we give hope to people across the country who are suffering from so many diseases when our government is cutting back on that research? RFK Jr: I do not know about any cuts to ALS research D: I just read them to you! R: I didn't know about them until you told me about them

Even if you want it, you can't get it. Socialism - actually it is just plain Communism.

Now is a great time to reach out to your member of Congress who promised not to cut Medicaid. Or to your conservative friends who don't think we should be exploding the debt. Because today, Donald Trump met with Republicans on Capitol Hill, trying to pass a bill that would do both.

According to officials, the plane had not taken off and was surrounded by emergency vehicles on the tarmac.

May 20 was chosen for “World Bee Day” to coincide with the birthday of Anton Janša, an 18th century pioneer in modern beekeeping techniques in his native Slovenia.

Turns out the Nazi Wagon loses almost all of its value the minute you drive it off the lot. LOL. #Tesla #Musk #Elon #TeslaTakedown www.thebulwark.com/p/death-of-a...

“Musk helped Trump win and then became the vanguard carrying out a cultural revolution inside the government. Musk dispatched cadres of young zealots to purge and reeducate. How do you stop such a man? You need a counterrevolution that attacks his power structure.” www.thebulwark.com/p/death-of-a...

This is horrid. Either she doesn’t know or she knows and this is a vicious lie. Neither is good. 👀⚖️👇🏾

This is extraordinary. The Secretary of Homeland Security doesn’t know what the right of habeas corpus is (the ancient right to go to court to challenge government detention) and offers an incoherent definition which suggests she thinks it’s a presidential power to deport people?

Instead of raising property taxes, why doesn't #PimaCounty tax high occupancy Short Term Rentals (Illegal party hotels) - that are destroying neighborhoods, taking kids out of public schools, & depreciating our property values. #Pima #Tucson @joeferguson.bsky.social @pimacounty-d1.bsky.social

BREAKING: Kristi Noem doesn’t know what Habeas Corpus is. This is highly concerning

Brilliant idea! Next they’ll invent seatbelts and call them “freedom straps.”

KIM: Do you know what section of the Constitution the suspension clause of habeas corpus is in? NOEM: I do not. Nope. KIM: Do you know which article is it in? NOEM: I do not, sir.

Republicans are having a meeting on their big ugly bill at 1am. Why? Because they don’t want the American public to know what’s in the bill.
