Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Without Medicaid, people will die. FACT. @mcbride.house.gov gives us a factual, frightening, maddening #CupOfJoe. This is the fight of our time. Call your Senators & tell them to vote NO on the #RepublicanDeathBudget. (202) 224-3121

U-Haul's slogan is “Moving Made Easier” but it’s turning into “Hate on the Move.” Hey @UHaul.com — you better figure out how to stop renting trucks to Patriot Front, or you’re going to be known as the official moving van of white supremacists.

Fifteen minutes into January 1st of every year, Elon Musk stops paying into Social Security!. Everyday workers pay an astronomically higher rate than millionaires and billionaires. That’s the real abuse of the Social Security Administration — not the seniors getting $65 a day. youtu.be/1_LobSGGdvk

Look at the take for the top 0.1% (those making above $4.3M/yr). Then look at the take for the rest of Americans. This bill is a heist.

There you have it: Republicans’ tax scheme lowers taxes for billionaires while the poorest Americans families foot the bill. That’s not rewarding hard work—it’s rewarding wealth. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Marco Rubio has no knowledge of the foreign nationals who are buying their way into favor with Trump, and doesn't have any concern that the conversations may pose a threat to national security. Hm.

U.S. Sen. Duckworth (D-IL) on reports that security screening President Trump's Qatar plane would cost $1-2 billion: "He’s accepting a bribe, which is unconstitutional and illegal ... going to cost taxpayers another billion dollars at a time when he wants to cut funding for Medicaid."

Republicans wanted to use a bureaucratic trick to tell you their budget bill doesn’t cost anything or add to the deficit. But in reality, their tax cut for billionaires would cost $5.5 TRILLION. So I called them out.

When you ban abortion you cease to care about the mother, the human being carrying the child, and the focus turns 100% on the baby. At all costs. At any cost. This is horrifying.

The state of Georgia is using the body of a brain-dead woman as an incubator. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she died, and their abortion ban is from about 6 weeks, they are sustaining her on life support, without input from her family, until 32 weeks of gestation. A true dystopian nightmare.

House Republicans’ tax bill would grant the Treasury Secretary the ability to accuse any nonprofit of being a “terrorist supporting organization” without basic due process. No president should have the power this bill provides to punish their political opponents.

Aetna reported a 60% jump in quarterly profits — then announced it's leaving the ACA Marketplace because it's "not profitable enough." Your reminder that health insurance companies aren’t there to save lives. They exist to make money — and if you can’t pay, they’ll let you die.

Finally, a Dem calls it out! Sen Chris Murphy said it out loud: the GOP is a cult. If Trump says 1+1=5, they nod. Now he’s stealing military assets—meant to defend our nation—to wage war on asylum seekers. That’s not policy. That’s fascism. And Republicans are all in. No breaks. Just cruelty.

250 years ago, Americans rejected a mad king. On June 14, we’re taking to the streets again for a nationwide day of defiance to say NO KINGS. Over 600 events are planned in all 50 states to reject authoritarianism and show the world what democracy really looks like: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...
