The same oligarchs who claim they hate government handouts are almost entirely reliant on government handouts themselves. Some would say it is hypocritical. But remember that hypocrisy is merely an expression of power.

AOC: We need to be taxing the rich on the floor of the Congress We need to be establishing guaranteed healthcare on the floor of the Congress We need to be passing a living wage on the floor of the Congress

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

So after promising to focus on safety, they’ve gotten right down to work… on gender terminology?

Imagine for a moment this was Bill Gates. Or George Soros. Then imagine what the (actually justified) right wing outrage would look like as opposed to this pathetic bootlicking.

🤬

Pam Bondi is disbanding the Foreign Influence Task Force - the FBI team that is charged with combatting foreign meddling in US elections. Worth asking how this makes us more safe in any way, shape, or form.

Crowd keeps growing outside Treasury as Members who were DENIED entry speak

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and Donald Trump each announce their agreement to pause tariffs for a month. Sheinbaum beat Trump to alerting the public. You can see what Trump left out of his message.

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

This press conference on the DC crash is an embarrassment. Just a lot of rambling.

Pete Buttigieg responds to Trump:

My message to Zuck

I will post this everyday for the next 4 years as a reminder that Jan 6th was a day of insurrection.

The NY Attorney General has REJECTED Trump's bid to dismiss his $500M civil fraud judgment post-election. The AG stated that Trump's presidency doesn't shield him from civil litigation over non-official conduct, per the Constitution and multiple court precedents.

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane. We have turned them into Sub Prime Lenders 🧵

You may not understand why, but the healthcare insurance and PBM contracts YOU have signed for Tesla, SpaceX , @X, along with CEOs of other big companies , have more impact on healthcare costs and quality of care in this country, than anything you can do with DOGE

🤦‍♂️

How comforting. Catch up on the latest updates with Ron's recap: www.meidasplus.com/p/resistance...

This is your daily reminder that this really did happen.

This needs to be said, loud, and often.
