The Capitol Police arrested a group of peaceful protesters who demonstrated today in the Cannon House Office Building against the Trump’s decision to freeze foreign aid and lay off thousands of USAID workers. The president has made his message clear: disagree with them, and they will come after you.

Do you make less than $360k per year? Donald Trump is raising your taxes while cutting Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, school lunches, Social Security, and basically everything the working class and elderly need to survive. People will die because Trump will murder them.

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

🚨BREAKING: Ninth Circuit AFFIRMS lower court decision striking down Arizona voter suppression law H.B. 2492 which imposed unconstitutional and burdensome proof of citizenship requirements. A big victory for our clients and the voters of Arizona. A stinging defeat for the RNC.

Some “moderate” Republicans flipped & ended up supporting this evil budget resolution. They voted to cut Medicaid & services their constituents depend on. The budget fight isn’t over. But if you are represented by any of these people that voted yes.. make sure they hear from you.

Alright friends, we're about to lose the vote on the budget resolution. We WILL keep fighting. This is the first vote they need to take, it is not the last. They will have to come back in a couple of months for another vote with firm numbers they're cutting SNAP and Medicaid and Medicare by.

Look if a man had recently become a bipartisan folk hero for allegedly killing a CEO for denying people healthcare...I'm not sure my opening salvo would be voting to strip a large chunk of a gun toting population of healthcare. That's just me though.

Every House Republican just voted to defund Medicaid. Reminder: there are no moderate Republicans in Congress, and stop pretending there are.

The House GOP just passed a budget slashing Medicaid, SNAP, school lunches, raises taxes on everyone making less than $200k a year, lowers taxes on anyone above that, and still explodes the deficit by more than a trillion dollars. They know the 2026 elections won't be free.

The question I am really struggling with right now is: What is "law & order" and the entire American constitutional order for if it isn't a Go Directly to Jail card for guys like Donald Trump and Elon Musk for doing exactly what they're doing right now?

A vote to cut Medicaid by $880 billion is basically a vote in favor of mass death.

They’re cutting Medicaid

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote. There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing. They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays. The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k. www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic...

A repeated mantra in my Drifting Lands series is “noble and brave, gentle and kind.” I recently found out that some sword friends were getting it engraved on the scabbards of their swords. I’m at a loss for words to be frank.

NEW: Israeli authorities have caused massive, deliberate forced displacement of Palestinian civilians in Gaza since October 2023 and are responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Governments should adopt targeted sanctions and other measures, and halt weapons sales to Israel.
