Project 2025 says fire federal workers, so they are. Project 2025 says abolish the Department of Education, so they are. Project 2025 says kick moms and babies off Medicaid, so they are. Project 2025 calls for a national abortion ban using the Comstock Act… see where I’m going with this?

Did Putin sign the cease fire agreement yet? Because Trump said if he didn’t sign it right away he was going to really teach him a lesson. Any updates from the Kremlin?

The “vibe shift” is not necessarily that more people on the right are antisemites compared to eight years ago; it’s that much of the right now appears to reject the basic notion that there should be any stigma against even the vilest bigotry.

Also, if you're openly saying you'll vote to pass the Trump-Musk blank check CR if you get votes on amendments, that by definition throws away your leverage. Republicans know they don't have to vote for the 30-day stopgap in the scenario that Dems themselves are publicly outlining.

Props to Senator Wyden for voting no on the CR. This is some of the only leverage Democrats have. They need to use it. Wyden will be with us IN STUDIO next week to discuss it. Be sure you’ve subscribed to The Dangerous Ones show on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen!

Brad Schimel is asked if he believes the 1849 abortion ban is valid. Schimel says yes, it was passed by both chambers of the legislature, signed by the Governor, and yes, it's valid. Even if it doesn't reflect the public's view now. Pretty straightforward answer. He's pre-judged. He's pro-ban.

OK, so Rubio announced Ukraine signed a cease fire agreement, and that now the ball is in Russia’s court. This is Putin’s response. So maybe Trump & Vance can finally admit that Ukraine wants peace and Putin wants war? Of course they won’t. The question is why?

Kash Patel’s FBI is flipping the script—ignoring neo-Nazis to target left-wing protesters. 1,500 agents relocated. Antifa and BLM in the crosshairs. The far right? Getting a pass. This isn’t law enforcement. It’s political warfare.

Republicans control the House. Republicans control the Senate. Republicans control the White House (sort of). If the government shuts down it is 100% on them. Ignore the any media that claims otherwise.

Mark Zuckerberg was reportedly at the White House today: www.reuters.com/technology/m... And by the way, the FTC is scheduled to take Meta to trial next month in an antitrust case that could end, potentially, with Meta being forced to sell off Instagram and WhatsApp.

“Big government” solved acid rain. I remember being really little and my mom telling me I couldn’t go play in the rain because it was acid. Too bad the American memory is so short that the very same kids saved from acid rain voted for the guy that wants to kill the EPA.

Very good thread. Many Senators like Warner are intentionally keeping their voting plans secret from their constituents. Because without knowing what they plan to do, it's harder to take any action to change the direction of this.

Trump is gutting public education to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Access to a free education is the very bedrock of economic mobility. While Trump claims to support the American dream, he is doing everything in his power to make it inaccessible for most Americans.

VERY IMPORTANT: This is just a trick. It's a way for Democratic senator to say they oppose the bill while letting it pass. It's not much of a trick. I mean, everyone will see it. But still this is simply a way of hoodwinking constituents. If they want to vote for it just vote for it.
