Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

"I gave blood, sweat and tears to this country for 20 years.... I kind of feel like I was just thrown out like a piece of trash." Alabama veteran Derek Copeland is one of the more than 10,000 federal workers fired by Trump and Musk. This administration doesn't care how many lives it ruins.

Murphy: "The game is clear. We can see it. They're not even hiding it. There is not a rule of law anymore. There is one set of law for people who are loyal to Donald Trump, and there is one set of law for people who care criticize him. That is not democracy."

You read that right—Trump just signed an Executive Order to bring independent government agencies under HIS control...effectively gutting their independence. Make sure EVERYONE sees this.

Last night, Trump promised he wouldn't touch Medicaid. This morning, Trump endorsed the House Republican plan to slash Medicaid. It's smoke and mirrors: Trump and Republicans are plotting to take away health care from millions of people to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.

Republicans are literally willing to let kids starve and seniors lose their health care if it means the top 1% and big corporations get more tax cuts. Think about that.

This means massive permanent cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and perhaps other things - to pay for tax cuts that disproportionately go to the rich. You can’t do permanent costers in reconciliation unless you have permanent savers. This means Republicans are calling for $400 billion in savers per year.

The SAVE Act would make it harder for millions of Americans to cast a ballot—including women who changed their name after marriage. Make sure everyone hears about this!

Trump would rather run on fear-mongering than actually do anything to fix our immigration system—it's why his so-called "solutions" make no sense.

Elon Musk is developing a new payment platform called “X Money.” Guess which agency would be making sure that Elon’s new project couldn’t scam you or steal your sensitive personal data? The CFPB.

A walkthrough of some of the priorities outlined in the House Budget Resolution 🧵 They are cutting health care for people with low incomes and disabilities by $880B+ while likely extending tax cuts for business owners (HEAVILY tilted to highest income) and multinational corps.

Wait, so attacking trans people, letting a billionaire run amok to fleece government projects that help people, making yourself chair of the Kennedy Center because you’re a narcissist, and sicking ICE agents on kids in schools and families in churches didn’t magically fix inflation?!

No one wants another indefinite U.S. military occupation in the Middle East or anywhere else. This is ethnic cleansing – and this is Palestinian land, not ours. The best path for long-term peace and security is a two-state solution.
