It's official: every Democratic Senator is united against tax handouts for billionaires and billionaire corporations. We believe nobody in this country should suffer so that Jeff Bezos can buy another yacht.

If we don't want to repeat history, we'd better be strong enough to learn from it. The authoritarian playbook starts with pointing to a group of people who don’t look like you and blaming them for your problems. When those issues are still there, what comes next?

If only past presidents had deployed the National Guard as forcefully as Pres Trump we could still: Have no workers’ rights Be in Vietnam Have segregation laws Abuse coal miners Have no women’s suffrage And that’s just off the top of my head. Assume many others.

an historian casually mentioned--as if everyone knew this--that T***p tariff agenda is for purposes of extortion, exclusively; that of course T***p is raking in undisclosed sums of money for manipulating tariffs; & this is the only real reason for the drama of the past months. good to know--I guess

Not just on #caturday, Boris and many other #catsofbluesky like to nap on freshly laundered sheets. His mom prefers non-furry sheets. Rinse and repeat.

Universities are not actually extensions of political agendas in a free society (or shouldn't be), so having this be the baseline is incredibly disturbing and a big red flag.

With Medicare Advantage, healthcare brokers can take as much as $600 per person — nearly $500 more than they would make with Medicare alone. This is private insurance using the Medicare brand to profit. My bill with @pocan.house.gov and @schakowsky.house.gov, will hold insurance companies.

NEW: I talked to Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) + fired federal scientists about RFK's bizarre insistence yesterday that he hasn't fired "any working scientists" -- after he's fired hundreds if not thousands of them. Alsobrooks flat-out said he lied. www.huffpost.com/entry/rfk-fi...
