Nurses know:  Staff shortages, longer wait times, delayed diagnoses and treatments, complete closures of hospitals— The GOP’s “Big Beautiful Bill” won't just hurt the 11 million Americans who will lose their healthcare due to Medicaid and ACA changes.

NEW VIDEO: A key provision of the GOP’s budget bill that sought to limit judicial power is dead under Senate rules following a challenge from Democrats. Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJYC...

This was a few good reasons for the curfew, from Don Winslow 👇 Thanks so much Mikel ❤️ 💙 💪 📣

The idea that we can "easily" overthrow the regime in Iran is a fantasy of people that have never served. Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban after 20 years of slaughter. Iraq still isn't peaceful. Libya is a war zone that's been in civil war since we dropped bombs. History is screaming!

No fear: This young man has more bravery and everything to lose, but he is showing up to fight. We need people in both chambers to take some cues from him. I am sick of Wall Street Dems and autocratic followers on the reich. Rise ⬆️ !

So much for MAHA.

THE VIEW: Do you feel safe as an elected official in this political climate? JASMINE CROCKETT: No. Not at all.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from:  -Sinking poll numbers -A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill -Harmful trade wars  -Unleashing the military on American soil -Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism We must remain on high alert.

Trump does not want a peacefully prosperous nation. He is trying to provoke, antagonize and incite. Do not ignore this act of tyranny. www.amny.com/news/brad-la...

Hi, it’s Meg again. Brad is still in ICE custody. We are grateful to the many friends, supporters, and allies who have gathered in Federal Plaza. Together we are standing up for those with no voice.

When the birthday parade list reads like a cautionary guide to history.

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

Y'all notice they're rounding up most of these "freeloading" immigrants AT WORK???!!

Iran: Weeks away from having nuclear weapons since 1995

I wrote this four days ago. Today, they arrested the NYC Comptroller.

Sen. Alex Padilla on the Senate floor: "If that is what the administration is willing to do to a United States senator for having the authority to simply ask a question, imagine what they'll do to any American who dares to speak up." "I pray you never have a moment like this."

When Teslas matter more than lives.

Moulton: It turns out the U.S. Army is not great at doing Soviet-style or North Korean-style parades, because that’s not what people sign up to do… Imagine how much veteran housing you could build for $40 million. You could help a lot of vets with that kind of money. And this parade helped nobody.

HAPPENING NOW: New Yorkers are protesting against ICE’s illegal arrest of NYC comptroller Brad Lander.

Would you look at that.

The situation in Los Angeles looks so bad Oklahoma has already banned it from being taught in schools.

Watching the right now oppose the part of the second amendment that guarantees a well regulated militia under state control is… something.

Holy cow, watching Rachel Maddow explain how universities are mounting a mutual academic defense pack to join in and defend themselves against Trump‘s moves. We are having to arm our social forces w whatever we’re personally allied w to fight our own government. It simply astonishes me. Jesus wept.

Nearly 900,000 fewer people from Canada crossed the border into the U.S. in March compared to the same month last year, according to the latest CBP data

Something has changed. People are fired up and ready to stop the chaos and cruelty. Keep it up.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

Autism is not a disease and these kids are not damaged, despite what HHS Secretary Kennedy says.

‘You’ve got the chops to get it done’: #NeilYoung endorses #MarkCarney ahead of federal election The Canadian singer-songwriter shared his thoughts on the Liberal leader Monday through an open letter published to his archives website. #Canada www.thestar.com/news/canada/...

Quick point. Congress can use the spending fight in September (remember Chuck Schumer surrendered till then) to prevent a single dollar from being used to house prisoners in El Salvador.

i’m sure this is nothing

Secretary Hegseth must resign. He lied. Now, we have new reporting about Hegseth’s wife. If the White House doesn't provide more facts, then this raises all sorts of red flags.

Who's grandfather fought in WWII?👋

BREAKING: Trump is having a full-blown meltdown on Truth Social—this time over a painting of him displayed at the Colorado State Capitol. He’s lashing out at the governor, claiming the portrait is “distorted.” It’d be a real shame if everyone saw it… and shared it.

Trump doesn’t like this picture of himself on display at the Colorado Capitol. You know what to do.

To be clear EVERYONE on that group chat should be fired for sharing state secrets….and GROSS incompetency!!!

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed. He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

Musk says says free speech ends where criticism of his defective and overpriced Tesla shit boxes starts. #TeslaTakeDown

This means I now have negative 4 security clearances

Never forget, folks. The KKKlownvoy was a well orchestrated attack on Canadian democracy by the CPC/PoiLIEvre, Stephen Harper's IDU, and foreign actors/Trump and Putin.
