Trump's Big Bill: -Expands his power to ignore court rulings -Gives the ultra-wealthy an even bigger estate tax break -Disqualifies nearly 2M children from the child tax credit -Adds unnecessary red tape that would kick millions of people off Medicaid It's a big, ugly mess.

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

WATCH: @repmoskowitz.bsky.social calls out the astounding nearly $1 BILLION (!!) for ICE employees in bonuses alone in the Republican budget. Masked anti-constitutional vigilantism pays well these days. 🇺🇸

A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for. Kudos, Sir.🌦️

Jack Ciattarelli is sitting back while his party cuts health care, food assistance, and education for New Jerseyans – at the same time they're continuing to force a SALT double tax on working New Jersey families. Here's what I have to say about it:

Reporters who ran with ‘Trump vows to protect Medicaid’ or ‘Trump considers taxing the rich’ in the past few weeks should seriously reconsider whether their job is journalism or stenography.

Donald Trump's "big beautiful bill" in a nutshell: 14 MILLION people losing their health insurance just so Jeff Bezos can buy another $500 MILLION yacht.

Donald Trump tried to sue Paramount-owned CBS. First, Paramount tried to dismiss the lawsuit, calling it "without basis." Now, they're settling. Why the sudden change? Paramount needs approval from Trump for an $8 BILLION merger. Is this bribery? I'm pushing to find out.

My Saturday PSA: Joe Biden isn’t the president anymore. Instead, we’ve got a mentally deranged and ethically compromised old man with the nuclear codes trespassing in the Oval Office. Stop talking about Joe Biden. Start talking about the Convicted Felon, Donald Trump.

I will never forget that the week Qatar decided to bribe the president of the United States with a plane, CNN decided to focus on the age and health of an ex-president. Shame.

The system we’ll live under will very likely resemble the one that Black people grew up with. I’m 63, my son is 34 and my grandmother is 101. We all have similar stories/experiences. So this take is very specific to the lives of white people in this country.

Whether it’s Hillary Clinton sharing a risotto recipe over email on a private server or Donald Trump choosing to fly in a plane packed with the electronics of a foreign country, both leaders have tested the boundaries of acceptable security practices.

Trump is gutting FEMA, so when the next hurricane drowns your town or wildfire burns your home, don’t expect help. He’s not downsizing government; he’s leaving Americans to die in chaos. This isn’t leadership. It’s abandonment.

Minutes after his selection as pope was announced, Prevost was being virtually crucified by Trump surrogates, Right-wing pundits, Fox News hosts, and rank-and-file America First cultists, who all took to social media en masse in performative histrionics. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/no-the-rig...

If you think a just-fertilized ovary is entitled to life but are indifferent to what happens to a kidnapped 4-year-old with cancer, sent to a dangerous country without meds, you don’t give a fuck about the lives of children. You are just in a cult that fetishizes being against abortions.

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.

Donald Trump ordered the Department of Justice to investigate the leading platform through which Democrats raise money for their campaigns. Less that 100 days in, Trump is weaponizing DOJ to prevent his political opponents from funding opposition campaigns. Where is the outrage?

Newsom: In 2023, Californians contributed $83.1 billion more to the federal government than we received back. And for your viewers: that other state—Texas—took $71.1 billion more than it contributed to the federal government. California: $83 billion, contributor. Texas: taker.
