NOT A SINGLE SENATOR should vote to confirm Emil Bove for the 3d Circuit Court of Appeals. (Fixed It!)

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

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

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?

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Zorhan Mamdani ran one of the best campaigns I have ever seen, and is a uniquely gifted politician. But his greatest achievement was message discipline on ONE thing: affordability. That is a universal message that resonantes for nearly every constituency. Dems need to take notes.

Phang: Vance Boelter received better treatment when taken into custody than Narciso Barranco—a Mexican immigrant working at IHOP, landscaping in the parking lot under the hot sun on a Saturday—who was beaten by Border Patrol agents.

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.

Donald impetuously declared a "ceasefire," not because he had brokered one, but because he was desperate to stop the war in Iran and do a quick victory lap after seeing how unpopular his bombing of Iran was with MAGA. And he is now angry with Netanyahu for blowing his cover by not playing along.

This “big, ugly bill” is dangerous and will destroy rural health care. In Kentucky alone, 35 hospitals are under the threat of closing, stripping care from families, cutting jobs and crippling local economies. 1/2

May want to consider getting that vaccine. We just lost a dear friend from that!

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?

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Why are Republicans trying to rush through their Big Beautiful Betrayal this week? Could it be they don’t want you to know what’s in it? Takes health care from 16 million people Raises grocery costs for millions Increases debt by $3.4 trillion Gives the wealthiest $400K tax break

We are currently in a war being run by reality TV personality Commander-in-Chief and his TV talk show chatterbox Secretary of Defense. Have a nice day.

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

A really excellent and important panel that we're organising at @caabu.bsky.social on war in the Middle East, with four really excellent speakers, Jasmine El-Gamal, Azadeh Moaveni, Dr H.A. Hellyer and Daniel Levy. Join us, and share among your networks. Registration here: caabu.org/events/caabu...

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

LA RESIDENT: “The cruelty is staggering. People are hiding in their homes from the federal government like Anne Frank. If you’re a Christian and you’re still supporting this you’ve lost your mind. You’re not gonna get a job because of what they’re doing. Absolute brutality.”

Here is the LAPD telling ICE to GTFO of Dodger Stadium. The only reason they came was to start a riot. What they got was the boot. More of this, California.

The Los Angeles Dodgers organization says it asked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to leave the Dodger Stadium grounds after they arrived at a parking lot near one of the gates.

You know your country has screwed up priorities when it pretends it doesn't have the money to prevent LGBTQ teen suicides but it *does* have the funds to subsidize the wealthiest man in the world's engineering incompetence. www.cbsnews.com/news/video-s...

federal agents at Dodger Stadium.

As Trump pledges mass deportation, he’s actually creating MORE undocumented people. More than one million people who were granted legal entry to the country under different programs are now being considered illegally here by the Trump administration.

It’ll forever be a stain on the United States of America — & on the Senators who voted to confirm — that this incompetent sycophant is in charge of the U.S. military. Everything about him is simply disgusting.

The fascist MAGA regime has ordered the complete shutdown of the national LGBTQ+ suicide hotline. There’s nothing pro-life about wanting scores of human beings to die in many cruel ways, this being one of the most evil included. If you voted for this, you’re just pure evil.

This is brutal. India says Trump is lying about a trade deal and says he also lied about brokering a peace deal between India and Pakistan. We are a joke around the world. bsky.app/profile/meid...
