Musk’s AI and Rockets are destroying US.

We can’t find the money for kids’ cancer research, but somehow there’s cash for this bullshit.

Congressional Republicans' plans to slash Medicaid funding and let the enhanced Affordable Care Act (ACA) premium tax credits expire at the end of the year will raise insurance premiums for millions with ACA marketplace coverage. www.americanprogress.org/article/cong...

On May Day—the day we honor workers—Republicans want you to know who really matters to them: ICE agents. The average American worker gets a $2,500 bonus. ICE employees? Try $42,500. Jaime Raskin has questions. Jared Moskowitz has the receipts. @raskin.house.gov @repmoskowitz.bsky.social

Remember that "In Biden’s 4 years, the U.S. had added 16 million jobs, unemployment was at its lowest rate in 50 years, real wages for the bottom 80% of Americans were increasing, and inflation levels had come down..." open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

This is the list of Justice committee that think it’s ok to ship AMERICANS out of the country to GULAGS as a part of Trumps retribution rip. My rep is on this list. Is yours? If they are, blow up their phones & emails. Protest the hell out of this. This is officially Nazism. #MomSky #ProudBlue

Booby needs to come up with a vaccine to kill that brain worm he’s got in his brain. washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

THE COST OF TRUMP Screenshot from the Port of LA live webcam 1:30 PM PST. This is not normal: Empty docks. No workers. No movement.

In 100 days, Trump has made it clear: he'll rig the system for his billionaire buddies, but raise costs on the rest of us. When will enough be enough? #TheCostOfTrump

#Bidenomics Get it now?

Trump 2.0: Armed fed'l agents burst in (apparently a no-knock warrant). Since they'd worked the case, they knew who they were looking for. Instead, they found a mom & her 3 girls. Nonetheless, they sent them out into the rain in underwear & then took all their $ as evidence. kfor.com/news/local/w...

@acyn.bsky.social Women are under attack- they have stolen our healthcare rights and don’t care if women die. They are trying to take women’s votes away by the “identify yourself” SCAM. Infuriating. #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 #ResistanceUnited #MomSky

To be clear: Republicans' sheer terror at Democrats using all the procedural tools they have available to disrupt their agenda is about as a good an endorsement as you're going to get of Democrats using those tools.

Jamie Dimon says the *best case* scenario for the US is now a recession. Cool, cool. From the best economy in the world to a self-inflicted recession in 4 months. Gotta be some kind of record.

So telling consumers what the tariffs add to the cost of an item is hostile but the tariffs themselves are not? 🙄

We’re not sliding towards Martial Law… we’re careening right into it. Again, I was expecting this, but that doesn’t make it less chilling.

Join me this Thursday at 7 pm for Democracy Dockets free virtual live event! I will be joined by a panel of experts to discuss Trump's first 100 days and the challenges facing democracy. It is free but you must register in advance. hubs.ly/Q03j5r_60

Trump’s USDA withdraws a plan to limit salmonella levels in poultry. 🐓 Hospitalized Annually: ~ 26,500 Die Annually: ~ 420

I’m going to keep banging this drum but this happened on March 6, to someone with connections, and we’re just hearing about it now. What’s happening that we haven’t heard about yet, or might not ever know?

Secretary Kennedy has not responded to my letter from last month demanding answers on why thousands of CDC workers were wrongfully terminated. So I went to the CDC yesterday to demand that this administration protect public health and reinstate these workers immediately.

While Trump flip flops again on China tariffs, says he will lower/end tariffs on China, China is not backing down, is negotiating with South Korea to stop Korea’s exports of China’s rare earth materials to the USA. Trump did this 👇 www.reuters.com/markets/comm...

Arkansas in 'Dire Need Of Federal Aid' Trump Said No Fourteen tornadoes touched down in Arkansas on March 14 and 15, leaving three dead and dozens injured. Gov Sanders request for FEMA disaster recovery funding was denied. That's reserved for Billionaire Tax Cuts arktimes.com/arkansas-blo...

RFK Jr for the win! www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

This is what representation in government looks like. This should have been an entire codel. It's not about waiting until the midterms. It's about taking action NOW

How is it possible U.S. citizens are being held as illegal aliens in America even after they produce their birth certificate? This is intolerable. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

🧵. It was just a matter of time I guess. An American citizen. Detained by ICE. Birth certificate provided in a court hearing. He remains in ICE custody. It is happening to US citizens. Juan Carlos Lopez Gomez Remember his name.

Early intervention is critical for newborn babies and parents. That’s changing under Trump. • CDC’s newborn hearing program cut — states may lose follow-up care • Genetic screening panel disbanded — fewer rare conditions caught early • Maternal health survey scrapped — less data to improve outcomes

Thirty-eight of 43 experts cut last month from the boards that review the science and research that happens in laboratories at the National Institutes of Health are female, Black or Hispanic, according to an analysis by the chairs of a dozen of the boards.

Yep, I’m going to “politicize” the FSU shooting because gun violence is political. The reason America has a 26 times higher gun homicide rate than any peer nation is because politicians care more about pandering to gun lobbyists than protecting their constituents.

People will die. People will suffer.

A U.S. born doctor says she received an email from federal immigration authorities demanding that she leave the country immediately.

In mid-March, ICE started detaining immigrants in tent camps in the U.S. for the first time, built by a company once known for operating music festival facilities that is poised to make a fortune on Trump's deportation plans.

Hey @democrats.senate.gov why did you let @vanhollen.senate.gov travel without every one of you? Without a single @democrats.senate.gov going with him. Where were you minority leader @schumer.senate.gov? Where.Were.You? 👏 @vanhollen.senate.gov you are doing the job you were elected to do. Thank you.

The Republican tax plan is now projected to cost up to $5.5 TRILLION. 70% of the benefits are set to go to the richest 5% of Americans. Republicans will either blow a giant hole in the deficit or go after our earned benefits to pay for it. This isn't just a scam—it's a heist.

Trump stays with his own kind.

It looks like the Trump regime is trying to hide ICE flights from the public tracker.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
