Republicans chose to release the text of their Big Ugly bill late last night. They’re trying to pass the largest cuts to health care in history late on a Saturday. So Democrats are forcing the entirety of the bill to be read on the Senate floor. We won’t let them hide.

24k gold in the Oval? No expense spared there! I suspect it may be plated.

RFK Jr. is very loud and very WRONG about Autism. 1. It’s not a disease 2. There are thousands of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder who pay taxes, have jobs, can use the bathroom on their own, and are thriving in life.

I think about those that signed up for CISA’s services to scan their networks. I think I would have found a replacement for that service sometime last year. Gift Link www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/u...

Since my retirement accounts are going to be worthless soon, I guess I will be working into my 70s. I can’t bear to look at the market right now.

R.E.M. Is For Planned Parenthood. What they’re fighting for is pretty simple: the freedom for everyone to control their own bodies, health, & lives. Everyone deserves access to safe, high quality, affordable care. Go to ImForPP.org to get involved m.youtube.com/watch?v=7y9U...

Just so we’re all clear, the Supreme Court *expressly ruled* that the president cannot fire FTC commissioners without cause in 1935’s Humphrey’s Executor. Trump’s action here is brazenly illegal under any interpretation of the law as it stands. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

This sounds like corruption and needless spending.

Don’t let Trump’s & Musk’s constant efforts to distract us keep you from focusing on the real issues, like the SAVE act, which will take the right to vote away from millions of American citizens. The voting rights of women are especially at risk if this bill passes. open.substack.com/pub/mindysch...

Here’s a cheat sheet with all the phone numbers for the US Senate. I have a feeling we’ll be calling them a lot in the near future.
