The Republican reconciliation bill is a disaster. Instead of slashing Medicaid and throwing 16 million people off of the health care they have, why don’t we do what every other wealthy nation does. GUARANTEE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL AS A HUMAN RIGHT.

Humans. 🥰

When ordinary Republicans understand how Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” would affect the after-tax incomes of American families, it turns out they don’t find it beautiful at all. “I was really shocked."

The world must think the United States has gone absolutely bat-shit crazy, led by a party of corrupt clowns! Republican Senator Mike Lee introduced a bill to withdraw the U.S. from NATO, which comes after a 2-day alliance summit in The Hague. Fffing unbelievable! www.newsweek.com/nato-us-with...

Trump’s people fired nuclear experts on a whim. Then tried to rehire them when the press found out. newsletter.ofthebrav...

We have to assume it's going to be 100x's worse than what we think is the very worst because that's what it will be. I thought separating families and putting them in cages was the worst that could happen and look at what's happening now.

Senate Republicans are planning to take an initial vote at noon on Saturday to take up the megabill.

Today's ruling on birthright citizenship allows presidents to do what judges have ruled illegal, writes @pemalevy.bsky.social. No matter how brazenly unconstitutional a presidential act may be, the courts cannot protect anyone who does not personally sue or is unable to join a class action lawsuit.

This remains hilarious.

Stripping birthright citizenship from people born in this country goes against rights guaranteed in the Constitution. We must stand against unconstitutional actions and stand up for the fundamental rights granted to people in the United States of America.

“I have no doubt that, if judges must allow the Executive to act unlawfully in some circumstances, as the Court concludes today, executive lawlessness will flourish..." @pemalevy.bsky.social unpacks KBJ's dire warning to the nation following today's Supreme Court rulings:

Certainly close enough to the real truth!

Former Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy warned that hostile political discourse and threats to judges are damaging the ability of the US to serve as an example of democracy worldwide. “Democracy is at risk. Freedom is at risk, ” said Kennedy.

Planned Parenthood provides vital care for millions of Americans every single year, including cancer screenings, screenings for diabetes and hypertension, vaccinations, and testing for sexually transmitted infections.

As a result, with today’s decision, the Supreme Court has removed one of the only practical ways to stop a state from punishing doctors it doesn’t like by kicking them out of the Medicaid program. Read @msjpauly.bsky.social's look at the 6-3 ruling.

NEW: Rep. Robert Garcia has just been elected to lead House Oversight Democrats. Earlier this year, Garcia joined us to discuss this critical time in American politics and Democrats’ role in defending democracy. Watch Garcia’s interview here: youtu.be/DjBqlhTKppw?...

NEW: California Rep. Robert Garcia will be the next top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee after beating Massachusetts Rep. Stephen Lynch in a 150-63 caucus vote Tuesday. Garcia won a first-ballot majority. www.politico.com/live-updates...

NEW: Records of hundreds of emergency calls from ICE detention centers obtained by WIRED—including audio recordings—show a system inundated by life-threatening incidents, delayed treatment, and overcrowding. Unpaywalled from @dell.bsky.social and @dmehro.bsky.social:

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

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.

L.A. TACO has confirmed through its sources that ICE is currently at UCLA Ronald Reagan Hospital. UCPD is not cooperating and prevented ICE from entering. ICE is standing by in the lobby. 🧵

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

No one's stopping for these fake ass ICE cars anymore ✊🏽

🚨 LA: “Fake ICE agents targeting the schools” It was only a matter of time. How is anyone supposed to tell the difference? And now @MarshaBlackburn Jack Johnson & Speaker Sexton are codifying masked Secret Police vigilantes into law?

GOV NEWSOM SPEAKS OUT ON ICE AGENTS WEARING MASKS

How did 77 million people actually vote for this lunatic?

AOC: You are not aware that the Trump Department of Justice is investigating the largest insurance company in America for fraud of Medicare Advantage that you have jurisdiction over?

Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

WE CANNOT ALLOW ICE TO KEEP WEARING MASKS. They're not running an undercover op taking out drug lords. They're KIDNAPPING ppl almost at random, ppl who are working at car washes, grocery stores... They're excessively violent. They disappear with their victims. WE NEED TO SEE THEIR FACES.

ICE has deported dozens of U.S. citizens, report says. ktla.com/news/local-n...

First I've seen "Fugitive Operations" insignia. It's sanctioned by ICE. Full descrip here: www.ice.gov/identify-and... WTHF do they find these guys. My first sense is they've been recruiting these teams for a while from militia, white nationalist groups & others who've been wanting civil war.

Hot take: people should be able to call the police to verify if they think they’re being kidnapped by men in masks who won’t identify themselves in unmarked cars without it being a “resisting” crime

Big VOTES aiming to hit the SENATE FLOOR this week: ⚠️ Floor vote on Tim Kaine's War Powers Resolution - Potentially THURS 🚨 Floor vote on H.R. 1 the "One Big (Bullshit) Bill Act" - As early as THURS Call your Senators --> 5calls.org

They thought masks and no name tags would protect them. ICE agents are being unmasked—names, faces, badge numbers, and insurers. When the reckoning comes, they won’t hide behind “just doing my job.” There are more of us than them. You can run. You can lie. But you can’t hide. icelist.info
