Me on hour 14 of dragging Republican Medicaid cuts for filth and giving them no end in sight

I appreciate that @chrismurphyct.bsky.social is putting the corruption front and center. Trump’s turning foreign policy into a cash grab for himself and his cronies—and we need voices on the Senate floor willing to call it what it is and fight back. Keep going. We’ve got your back. HAPPENING NOW👇🏾

Jeffries: China punked the administration and the administration backed down. That’s no surprise because we’ve seen that happen over and over and over again.

We should be ashamed of ourselves for not appreciating him breaking the law. ✈️ 💰 🙏

Art of the Deal!!

Oh. Elon Musk is tagging along with Donald Trump on his trip to Saudi Arabia. Here they are meeting with Crowned Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud. This isn’t normal.

Someday Trump and MAGA will be gone, but we will always have footage of these people humiliating themselves every day to win his favor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zgp0...

Bless this guy!

BREAKING: Pope Leo is descended from Creole people of color—and MAGA’s having a full-blown meltdown, calling him “woke.” Good. Let ’em melt.

I understand this is all so crazy. The question is what do we do about it? Here’s a list of 10 things… youtu.be/ZMl1r-1a8tI

"If the large increases in tariffs that have been announced are sustained, they are likely to generate a rise in inflation, a slowdown in economic growth, and an increase in unemployment." -Jerome Powell, Chair of the Federal Reserve

Trump's budget cuts: -$4.5B from programs for students in high-poverty schools -$49M from the Ed Dept's civil rights office -$26B from state rental assistance -$4B from low-income home energy assistance -$20B+ from the CDC and NIH All to give the rich another tax cut.

“Palestinians are being starved in Gaza by the Israelis, and according to one study, not a single Sunday show in this country has mentioned it,” says @mehdirhasan.bsky.social.

Powell: "If the large increases in tariffs that have been announced are sustained, they are likely to generate a rise in inflation, a slowdown in economic growth, and an increase in unemployment."

Every generation has its defining test. This is ours. Don’t burn out – pace yourself, live your life, and keep pushing. We’re the torchbearers now. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/keep-your-...

Do your job, Sean.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

Here is the key part from WSJ today for us as Americans. Trump's 10% TAX on all goods from UK will stay in place. Meaning we pay 10% higher for goods. WSJ says big US tech companies will benefit most bc lower digital tax. This is for Trump's oligarchs-not us! www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

MEEKS: Does trade deficits constitute a national emergency? BESSENT: Yes MEEKS: Do you know that for the last four decades we have trade deficits and nobody said it was a national emergency?

Federal Reserve: "The Committee...judges that the risks of higher unemployment and higher inflation have risen." Rates remain unchanged as stagflation fears mount.

This dude needs to be set straight. Damn GOP need to do their damn jobs, and stop this madness! Do your job, you're getting paid to do!

Goldman: "The notion that bc he won an election that he should be able to ignore the Constitution or violate our laws is preposterous. Every president wins an election. That does not mean they get to just make up whatever laws they want ... Donald Trump does not get to decide what the law is."

No more dolls for you, capitalist piglets!! 😡 #MAGA

"Trump is using tax dollars as a weapon to enact his social policy without the hassle of having to get Congress to pass a law. He would prefer to bombastically state what the law is & bully everyone into complying rather than test out his fantastical legal theories in court." — @lizdye.bsky.social

Elizabeth Warren is calling out hypocrisy when she sees it 👏

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

“the moment when the regime begins to really earn money is also often the moment when they really feel the need to crack down on civil liberties." - @anneapplebaum.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/podcasts/arc...

New research shows that abortion bans led to more unwanted or unsafe pregnancies carried to term, resulting in an increase in both live births and infant deaths. publichealth.jhu.edu...

Republicans really don't want you to know that Trump’s tax scam would hand billions to the ultra-rich while gutting Medicaid and SNAP for working families. We can't let the GOP off the hook — if you live in a red district, make sure your representative hears from you: act.indivisible.org/...

I was deeply honored to meet President Zelensky via Zoom when he asked me to become an ambassador for UNITED24 to raise funds for surveillance drones. I'm proud to have walked this road with @u24.gov.ua to support the sovereign nation of 🇺🇦 & so grateful to all who have donated! 🙏❤️👍 #SlavaUkraine

Pediatricians say that childhood vaccines are safe. A heroin-addled nepo baby with a brain worm says they may not be. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to believe.

I love that the Pulitzer site is straight up like "Yeah, she won because she's so fearless that she quit her job over censorship," and WaPo is still like "Look! We won!" and just acting oblivious to how this makes them look.

Inspiring how she stands up to herself so publicly.

Sen. Fetterman has missed over 18 percent of votes this year, the most of any US Senator. When asked by a reporter about the missed votes, he responded, “I’m devastated by your inquiries,” without an explanation.

"MSNBC's Tom Costello claimed Friday that an air traffic controller who works at Newark airport said, ‘It is not safe. It is not a safe situation right now for the flying public. Don't fly into Newark. Avoid Newark at all costs.’”

“In 2018, Tuberville’s wife, Suzanne, and their son Tucker claimed a homestead exemption on a house in Auburn. However, later that same year, Tuberville and his wife continued to vote in Florida, according to election records.”

100 DAYS...of lying, grifting, lawbreaking, division, incompetence, ignorance, illegal deportations, self-aggrandizement, vulgarity, self-pity, cruelty, ignoring the Supreme Court & due process while attacking: the Media, Universities, Law Firms, the Courts & Journalists. 1362 Days to go...

Quite the compliment coming from one of my favorite accounts on this platform. Thanks for all you do, Rick! From your fan, Mar🐫

Proof this guy is full of SITH.

Trump's budget calls for a 22% cut that would hit the CDC, NIH, FEMA, EPA loan programs aimed at protecting drinking water, and much more. All to finance giant tax cuts for the rich. Oh and Trump is proposing a record $1 trillion military budget. "Fiscal responsibility."

After ICE agents raid the wrong Oklahoma location (the immigrants they were looking had already moved), they still force minor girls outside in their underwear, raid the home, and take the family’s money and electronics. kfor.com/news/local/w...

16 Dems just voted to confirm Trump's ambassador to China, David Perdue: Booker (D-NJ) Coons (D-DE) Duckworth (D-IL) Fetterman (D-PA) Gallego (D-AZ) Hassan (D-NH) Kaine (D-VA) Kim (D-NJ) King (I-ME) Klobuchar (D-MN) Peters (D-MI) Reed (D-RI) Rosen (D-NV) Shaheen (D-NH) Slotkin (D-MI) Warner (D-VA)

The American government kidnapped a 2-year-old child of Venezuelan migrants and placed her with a “foster family” after deporting her mother to Venezuela and sending her father to El Salvador: abcnews.go.com/US/el-salvad...

After his release from federal custody today, Mohsen Mahdawi delivered a bold message to Donald Trump and his Cabinet: “Let me make this clear—I am not afraid of you.

yeah i am pretty much on the side of primary everyone

Funny how the paperwork only matters when it’s a woman or minority voter.
