You’ll all be shocked to learn that this guy is a multimillionaire investment banker who advised the Ron Paul campaign

The Trump administration has lied about the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case every step of the way. That so many outlets are choosing to credulously report out details of the indictment rather than covering this as a dangerous political weaponization of the justice system is deeply pathetic.

This was expected but still incredible. The Senate Banking Committee is zeroing out the funding of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in the big beautiful bill. This will produce a budget savings of $0.00 and should therefore be easily tossed by the parliamentarian. 🧵

1/4 At ICE’s Krome Detention Camp in Florida, Cuban immigrants formed a human "SOS" on the patio—desperate to alert the world. The facility is nearly 200% over capacity. Built for 600, it now holds 1,700. People sleep on floors, eat only a cup of rice a day, and go without medical care.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

Reminder that California subsidizes red states.

YES!!!

Elon Musk must've taken a big dose of truth serum, because he's absolutely right: the GOP tax bill would blow up the deficit by $3 trillion — and that's AFTER they cut health care for 16 million people. This bill is only "beautiful" for billionaires. For everyone else, it's the Great Betrayal.

Trump's abomination of a reconciliation bill is a deal to sacrifice the lives of 50,000 of us to pay for more luxury for billionaires. That's 50,000 deaths a year. 500,000 deaths a decade. Gives new meaning to the term "obscenely wealthy." The rich have put out a contract on the lives of the poor.

#BREAKING: #SCOTUS grants Trump administration stay in DOGE/Social Security case (restoring DOGE’s access to SSA data) over public dissents from three Democratic appointees.

There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

So are we just teaching our kids they have to obey anyone with a mask and an unmarked car and an oddly-fitting vest and zip ties now and go with them? Is this where we’re at?

House Republicans passed the single largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in the HISTORY of our country.   The GOP tax bill would deliver the largest cut to Medicaid and SNAP EVER.   Repost and help me put a burning, bright spotlight on this awful disaster of a bill.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles. Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Joyce Vance is right: stop gawking at the breakup of the egomaniacs and look at ICE, Vought, and Miller to see what's really going on in this country: joycevance.substack.com/p/dont-lose-...

An aging coal power plant slated to shutter will run through the summer at the order of Energy Sec. Chris Wright, a decision that could cost Midwest energy customers tens of millions of dollars.

REP. GOLDMAN: “.. I called for the full release of the Epstein Files a month ago because of my suspicion that @AGPamBondi was concealing the files to protect Donald Trump. Now my suspicion has been confirmed.” @mediaitenews.bsky.social www.mediaite.com/politics/hou...

Elon should explain to us exactly how he won the election for Trump.

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

History teaches us that alliances between oligarchs and fascists, while initially beneficial to each other, usually don't end well.

🍿 … best breakup 💔 ever… 💣

Inject this breakup into my veins

🦋 The "genius" Musk didn't have to know the US deficit history since the 1980s, just Trump's history ... Obama handed Trump a $0.59tn annual deficit, which he ballooned every year in office > 2017 $0.67tn +13.6% > 2018 $0.78tn +32.2% > 2019 $0.98tn +66.1% > 2020 $3.13tn +531.0% 🦋

Cool cool.

“If you see anyone from the National Park Service on your summer travels, give them a hug. Or for that matter: If you see any civil servant from the federal government this summer, give them a hug. They all need it.” I can vouch for that.

"If you need to update Social Security about a move or bank account change, it could take longer than usual... "Changes like these may take longer, and thousands of Americans could see delays or even stopped checks in the meantime, employees warned USA TODAY..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

The economic experts are biased. The Congressional Budget Office is biased. The judges are biased—including the ones Trump appointed. It's amazing how every single institution dedicated to uncovering and disseminating accurate information is so hopelessly biased.

The Congressional Budget Office just confirmed that the Big Beautiful Bill is, in Elon Musk’s words, a “disgusting abomination.” This exposes Republicans’ lies — this bill will rip health care away from millions of people and jack up the debt to fund tax breaks for billionaires.

It’s a self-purge.

Reminder to ICE: Do not lay hands on American citizens. Video, photos, and personal information have been recorded. Actions have consequences. If you have information to share, email [email protected]. Your safety is our top priority, never forget that.

DOGE Goons left behind illegal drugs, roaches, garbage and overflowing sinks causing thousands of dollars worth of damage to Institute of Peace during their two month seizure of the building. Not only is Elon Musk using drugs, so is his DOGE gaggle of incels. Drug test DOGE immediately #ProudBlue

There’s a special election tonight for a South Carolina House seat that Harris carried by single-digits last fall. The early vote just came in, 80% to 20% for the Democrat.

There are only two kinds of society in which armed agents of the government routinely conceal their identities: Lawless failed states, and authoritarian states.

1/7 Trump & House Republicans passed a bill so brutal they delayed the worst until after the 2026 midterms. Why? Because they know if voters feel the pain before November, they’ll lose. So they rigged the timeline & plan to lie nonstop till then. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue
