My loyal companion Bode died last night of canine lymphoma. Since 2016, he was by my side at work and at play. He was always happy and no matter how bad other things were, he always made me smile. Quite simply, he was the best dog ever. I already miss him terribly.

In total, the winners spent $394 million on Trump’s crypto, though some sold some or all of their holdings after the contest. The amount varied significantly by spender, with the top seven winners each spending more than $10 million and the bottom 24 each spending less than $100,000.

New from me: the House GOP bill would cut Medicaid & CHIP by 12-14%, growing higher over time - the largest in history. There's $792 bn of gross Medicaid & CHIP cuts (mostly Medicaid). There are $76 bn of total health offsetting interactive effects (mostly Medicaid), so the true cut is $716-792 bn.

FernĆ”ndez: He refused to read the bill he wrote. They are so ashamed of it, they couldn’t even read it aloud—because they know it’s shameful to give tax breaks to tanning beds and take away hospital beds. Who likes tanning beds? There’s a certain personality who has a very orange hue about him.

Angie Craig: "I have no idea why we think it's a good idea to repeal a tax on silencers when we are going to feed fewer children in our country as a result of this. It's a moral damn failure is what it is."

ā€œI believe Habeas Corpus opened for the Chili Peppers at Lollapalooza in 1993, Your Honor.ā€ Krispy Gnome

An enraged Secretary of State Marco Rubio testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Tuesday. Rubio doggedly defended the Trump regime’s revocation of student visas. Dismissing free speech entirely, the regime continues to target people for merely expressing opinions — or,…

Trump officials' showings at hearings today were disasters, but it doesn't make headlines bc the media's default assumption is that Rs are clownish rascals. But if Dems didn't know what was happening at their agencies or what habeas corpus is, it'd be front page news. This is a key media asymmetry.

Tom Homan always sounds like he has a mouth full of Rhinoceros dung when he is talking.

WYDEN: Did you promise any tax promoter you would help them if you got confirmed? LONG: I can answer that with an affirmative no W: So you didn't meet w/ anybody when you were in town for the inauguration & promise help? L: Not that I can think of. And I had food poisoning W: We have it on tape

Trump’s ā€œBig Beautiful Billā€ guts Medicaid and aid programs to extend tax breaks, yet analysts say it could still balloon the debt by trillions. Critics call it a reverse Robin Hood in disguise. Slashing care for millions to fund cuts for the wealthy. #MomSky finance.yahoo.com/news/white-h...

Burn baby burn! Thanks Coach Tawni!

Avoid the Murdoch pile-on and clickbait book folks. We have a country to save before Trump flushes it down the toilet. The felonious adjudicated rapist won’t sleep until he vanquishes Biden & his legacy. Most everyone can see what he’s doing + history will not be kind to a fascist dictator. #Resist

This is not the first time, nor will it be the last time that ā€œshit for brainsā€ takes the credit for someone else’s work and success. Thank you for your service President Biden; for pushing us through some bad times and for being the most effective president in generations. Get well ā¤ļøā€šŸ©¹ #USDemocracy

Ashli Babbitt got reparations

Russia is murdering Ukrainians on a daily basis & Western media turns these useless calls/meets into a spectacle. It’s so frustrating watching this from people who don’t know a thing about the region. No Russia doesn’t want to end its genocidal war. If they did they would get the hell out of Ukraine

Four months ago. Today. $JPM @wsj.com buff.ly/4dErRy2

There’s no difference between watching CNN today and watching CNN a few years ago. Trump’s goons will be goose stepping through DC and CNN’s chyrons will still be wondering whether Biden is in the throes of cognitive decline. Good work— finger on the pulse, guys!

@cnn.com Fuck you all!! Disgusting how you continue to destroy a former president after a recent cancer diagnosis & push @jaketapper.bsky.social despicable book with @vanjones.bsky.social fueling the fire while there is a corrupt felon in office who can’t even speak in complete sentences.

For the hard of thinking - Jill Biden holds a Doctorate in Education, not a medical degree.

Oof

🚨🚨🚨 The Supreme Court has just allowed Trump to strip as many as 350,000 people of legal status, effectively IMMEDIATELY. Every Venezuelan granted TPS through the July 31, 2023 designation has been rendered undocumented as of now, significantly increasing the undocumented population.

These Medicaid cuts will be extremely bad and they’re just to offset tax cuts for very wealthy people www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Breaking: Supreme Court allows Trump to revoke protected status for thousands of Venezuelans per NBC News.

I’ve been with Verizon for decades. Now I’ll have to cancel. Can anyone recommend a new carrier?

Where's the op-ed saying the same about republicans?? Oh that's right, we only demand retribution from Democrats while letting Republicans gaslight daily! Fuck this. #MomSky www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

New in PN: Voters want Dems to stand up to Trump, not self-flagellate "The base's frustration is not because leading Democrats have failed to oppose Joe Biden. It’s because they are perceived as failing to oppose Donald Trump."

CBS News chief steps down amid tension over Trump lawsuit

Cato has published my comprehensive review of the ~240 Venezuelans the US government renditioned 2 months ago to Salvador’s notorious prison. We identified FIFTY who came legally, never violated any immigration law, but are imprisoned at the US government’s request and at US taxpayer expense.

Absolutely! #StandUpFightBack

BREAKING: President Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer "with metastasis to the bone." "[T]he cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management. The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians."

How long until we see Disney change its language? I guess at least it didn't comply in advance...šŸ™„

I never viewed this guy as an ally.

BREAKING: Germany will no longer advise the U.S. when transferring U.S. made weapons to Ukraine to avoid tipping off the Russians… Gee, I wonder why?!
