Medicaid cuts would drop ~7.6M Americans from coverage. Medicaid enrollment falling by over 10M by 2034. Experts estimate > 16,000 additional preventable deaths/year. Cuts hit low-income families, seniors, people w/ disabilities the hardest, & trigger major job losses in the health sector nationwide

Trump’s recent military action against Iran has been widely condemned as unconstitutional by lawmakers and legal scholars, reigniting efforts in Congress to reclaim its authority over war powers and raising serious questions about executive overreach in foreign policy. Keep emailing your Reps

ICE is currently detaining about 59,000 immigrants. ~47% have no criminal record, less than 30% have been convicted of any crime, most are for non-violent offenses such as traffic or immigration-related violations. Only about 8–10% of ICE detainees have been convicted of serious crimes (e.g. murder)

There are many unknowns and unknowable but let’s start with these three! The Three Unknowns After the U.S. Strike on Iran www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/o...

The Economist has a new state-by-state estimate of Trump’s approval out this week (built in small part on a MRP model I wrote while I worked there). Trump is underwater in 15 states he won in 2024, including: WI -8 MI -8 PA -7 NV -5 GA -4 NC -4 AZ -4 www.economist.com/interactive/...

My latest cartoon-

"Only 8% of the 805 miles the state identified for construction is complete, which has cost taxpayers more than $3 billion to date..." www.texastribune.org/2025/06/17/t...

If you make less than $100,000 a year, guess how much you can expect to save under the GOP's budget bill? $14 a week.

Totally delusional. Let’s say IRGC takes over. The very people who ran the nuclear programme for 40 years aren’t going to end it. “Netanyahu told ABC News on Monday that targeting…Khamenei would end, not escalate, the ongoing fight” abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics...

this is horrific, and the eventuality some of us have been warning about for a long time

"Iranian officials had dismissed the warning signs that Israel was planning to strike nuclear sites as propaganda and a media frenzy aimed at pressuring Tehran into concessions in talks" www.nytimes.com/live/2025/06...

"Mobilizing military forces into cities is going to be seen as an overreach, and it's going to be now met with peaceful, boisterous moms, dads, grandmas. kids and their dogs and families showing up, saying, 'we're not going to put up with this authoritarianism..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Gotta love #AOC

We asked 1,000 Americans what they thought of the Trump presidency so far. Here is what political independents said. I would be pretty worried about this if I were the Republican Party trying to keep my House majority in 2026. Link to more: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/what-voter...

Trump said he would get a peace deal within 24 hours, and now is poised to lose the war. Why? Because he is the weakest U.S. president in our lifetime. He's told Putin he can continue the war and pay ZERO price. No sanctions. No new weapons for Ukraine. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/26/u...

Casar: What we discovered last night, which is really breaking news, is that they’re not just robbing Medicaid—it turns out they’re also planning to rob Medicare of nearly half a billion dollars if they pass this bill.

So what we have learned is that the Republican budget bill: - increases wealth for the richest 10% - decreases wealth for the poorest 10% - adds $3.8 TRILLION (greater than the total size of many foreign economies) to the deficit. What a f---ing disaster.

Republican lawmakers in key districts are considering a reconciliation tax package that would slash vital programs like Medicaid, SNAP, and housing assistance—all while giving handouts to the wealthy and big corporations.1 We can't let that happen. #StopTheCuts #CallToday

Phang: And you’ve got to appreciate that the congresswoman was able to say, “Look, this ain’t Fox News, buddy. This is Congress.” So if you’re going to be here and you’re going to try to make an allegation somewhere publicly, you better be able to back it up.
