This is the kind of bs that needs repercussions. First, the lying. Second, attacking a veteran disabled in war. Trifling, just trifling.

So proud of our Democratic members of Congress, right now! They’re being blocked from the Dept. of Education—and they’re not having it. Seeing Auntie Maxine ready to fight for our kids warms my soul. She hasn’t changed. Waters isn’t my congresswoman, but we love her in this house!

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

This is a big deal, y'all. Federal health websites are being stripped of content or removed in their entirety. Stick with this thread for a look at what's disappeared so far! 1/x

Republicans own every disaster Pete Hegseth causes for eternity. A reckless choice. Someone who is susceptible to blackmail, with a slew of serious allegations against him. What an abomination.

More from inside NIH: Per a source with knowledge, for all internal research (of which there is like $10 billion worth or so), ALL purchasing shut down as of yesterday. That means gloves, reagents, anything involved with lab work, which means a lot of that work will stop.

Instead of renaming our military bases after Confederate traitors, why doesn’t Trump just rename them after his J6 heroes? Fort Tarrio. Stewart Rhodes Air Force Base. How about the USS QAnon Shaman? Such a heroic bunch of guys deserve nothing less for their bravery.

Just in case people don’t fully grasp it. The pardoning of insurrectionists is Trump’s way of building loyalty from militias and domestic terrorists to carry out unofficial acts for him

To get $3TRILLION in tax cuts, Republicans have put eliminating nonprofit (501c3) status for hospitals & healthcare firms on the table. Did you vote Republican to force healthcare to become 100% for profit? Well, you did whether you realized it or not! You were warned. Now we all pay.

We started working on @skylight.social two days ago because of his TikTok post. Replicating TikTok’s incredible algorithm is going to be pricy so it matters a lot that he (and others) are willing to fund stuff like this!

Trump hated TikTok (because China) until it helped him win an election (as even he acknowledges) and now he’s going to save it and take a victory lap. So he’ll have X, TikTok, Insta, and Facebook all working on his behalf. That’s a big difference between now and 2017.

GOP: we are gonna force you do have babies but once they’re born, you’re on your own and we really mean it because we are cutting all benefits that might make it feasible

The Republicans want to give corporations another tax cut, but this time they want single parents to foot the bill. That doesn't seem right. Thank you @wyden.senate.gov for keeping us informed! #DemVoice1

Now that TikTok has officially gone dark, I’m re-upping my post from a few days ago to remind folks that this praise for Trump is wrong.

Chapter 18 “On Tyranny” @timothysnyder.bsky.social speaks of historical events that allowed govts to grab power. To quote Pete Buttigieg, "We will be inclined to react with shock by some things which are done precisely with the intent of shocking us. We need to move very quickly through the shock."

NEW: My staff just got ahold of this memo from House Budget Committee Republicans. It's lengthy and hard to digest but it tells us exactly how Republicans plan to sell out the American people for another round of tax cuts to the rich. We're breaking down the highlights as we go:
