President Trump's bill gives those making over $4 million a $390,000 tax cut. It is skewed toward the wealthy. The less you make, the less good this is for you. That's why they are trying to ram this through.

Yes. In case you haven't heard republican leadership, probably DeSantis, has proposed building a gulag in the middle of the everglades called Allegator Alcatraz. They want to build it there because it's infested with gators & no one would want to escape. BTW, it's also infested with pythons too.

Admitting to being wrong can be difficult. But "intellectual humility" is a trainable trait that deepens relationships.

Integrity. Honor. Decency. Compassion. There was a time when we had all of those traits in our President. Thank you Pres. Biden for taking the time to respect, recognize, and honor the incredible lives of Melissa and Mark Hortman, as well as their beloved Gilbert.

Republicans just voted to advance their big, ugly betrayal of a bill — which is now loaded with so much other junk that they don't even KNOW what’s in it. Well guess what: we're going to force them to read every damn word. And then we're going to fight it in every way we can.

ONCE AGAIN in the dark of night—Republicans are trying to jam their Big Abomination of a Bill through Congress. This is what’s going on tonight after they jammed a motion to proceed through the Senate in a 51-49 vote. Obviously, I’ll be a very hell NO on this bill. ⬇️

Really?? Nothing put democracy at risk more than his disgraceful, false Citizens United decision. First, he bought the obvious lie that unlimited funding would be transparent; then when the falsity became indisputable, he refused to correct. ZERO cred here. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

I urge my Republican colleagues to listen to what they would be voting for: drastic cuts to Medicaid, increased costs for working Americans, and skyrocketing deficits.

The Republican reconciliation bill is a disaster. Instead of slashing Medicaid and throwing 16 million people off of the health care they have, why don’t we do what every other wealthy nation does. GUARANTEE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL AS A HUMAN RIGHT.

Baldwin: I remember my cross-examination of Secretary Kennedy from HHS, and he said, “We will have radical transparency.” But what they’ve actually had is radical opaqueness. They never answer a letter. They never answer a question. It’s one of the ways that democracy begins to degrade—

Around midnight last night Senate Republicans dropped a NEW version of their Reconciliation bill with MORE cuts to Medicaid and many provisions that violate the rules and gut vital programs for Americans. Their plan? Jam it through in the coming days regardless of what the American people think.

As awful as things are right now, I think it's important to understand that there are more decent ppl than there are awful ppl. Don't let the awful ppl out of your sight don't stop calling them out but mostly don't let them think there's more of them than decent ppl.
