GOP Senators know that the "Big Beautiful Bill" hurts their constituents AND is financially flawed. In the past, they were guided by one thing: Fear of crossing Trump. But now, Musk gives them cover to defect. NO WAY this bill passes as is. The GOP will make noise. Dems need to make LOTS of noise.

Dan Price is best known for being the CEO who lowered his salary from $1.1 million to $70k while raising all his employees' salaries to match his own. But he SHOULD be best known for multiple women accusing him of rape, sexual assault, and abuse. skepchick.org/2025/06/best...

Now that Trump has blasted Leonard Leo, don't let the right wing sanitize the Federalist Society. Its members have been supporting voter suppression for years, its judges are among the hardest on voters. What will come from Trump now will be far worse, but do not judge democracy on a curve.

Joni Ernst gets indignant with her constituents and makes a gaffe - and when she has time to reflect upon it, chooses to double down on the gaffe. Joni - allow me: Everyone KNOWS they're mortal, and will, one day die. They're telling you they'd rather die later than sooner, you stupid callous ass.

So House Republicans are fighting about the Medicaid cuts in the tax bill for the rich - not because it kicks nearly 9 million people off Medicaid - but because it doesn't kick enough people off Medicaid. Vote accordingly.

Trump doesn't have “conflicts of interest” anymore. A “conflict of interest” sounds like an unfortunate situation where Trump might choose his own interests over the nation’s. But Trump isn’t conflicted about anything. He's the most corrupt president in American history.

Don’t normalize what Trump is doing with this plane. It’s a bribe. Plain and simple. He’s accepting a bribe from a foreign government.

I truly cannot believe “should we have a food safety infrastructure” is something we are litigating in the year two thousand fucking twenty five and the person currently in charge is on the “no” side

This is actually a thing I think about a lot. There are some things you can say (if you're a douche) "I'm really rich so it won't hurt me." But no matter how wealthy you are, without regulations there is no reliable way to know your food is safe. It's not visible.

While it's not a good idea to challenge feudalism in the presence of the king, it had to end. Same with capitalism. It only benefits like 20% of the population.

If you’re attending the White House Correspondents Association dinner tonight, be sure to come prepared with a joke about the toddler cancer patient they just disappeared despite her being a citizen. Otherwise it’s going to be awkward when you’re mugging for photos with Stephen Miller.
