MUST WATCH: Holy hell. Brendan Boyle just obliterated the GOP’s Reconciliation scam live on the floor, calling out every crooked clause and profiteer-friendly loophole like a prosecutor in a murder trial. This isn’t political theater — this is war.

Language policing by the Trump-oligarch regime should be a bigger story. Now would be a good time for us all - esp. journalists and editors - to learn and use the words “Ausschaltung” & “Gleichschaltung”. Powerful pro-democracy action by @riseandresist.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/rise...

Republicans in Congress won’t tell you this: Donald Trump’s “big beautiful bill” would be the biggest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in the history of our nation.

The credulity with which people are greeting these "deals" is absurd. These countries just say "We'll invest eleventy trillion dollars in the US!" to give Trump something he can claim as a victory. If 1/100th of it ever happens it'll be a shock. It's all fake.

Let’s have Congress vote on it. I’d like to get some Republicans on record before the midterms.

Our allies for a century all hate us, but at least the rulers of Saudi Arabia and Qatar appreciate how easy it is to get what they want from our govt, and appear to enjoy our president’s willingness to trade US govt policy for personal enrichment. So we have some friends.

He threatened Putin with sanctions if he didn’t sign the ceasefire. He didn’t, Trump did nothing. Then he threatened sanctions again and Putin blew off peace talks in Turkey. And all this weak loser has to say about it is this complete load of bullshit. Trump is Putin’s bitch.

You all should know by now I criticize Republicans and Democrats, and have no problem calling out Dem leadership and Biden. However, the media obsessing over Biden's age while ignoring Trump is literally falling asleep during meetings and is the oldest man to be President is infuriating.

Republicans aren't just ignoring Trump's graft, they're enabling it. So House Democrats should start treating them as accomplices. A good place to start? Pressuring James Comer. Gift link: wapo.st/431rQCY

Hey NY Times-- It is still a "fringe theory" -- every court has rejected it. There is still a "broad consensus" -- John Eastman is a disgraced lawyer under indictment. The only thing that has changed is the Times.

Syrian president Assad's regime was a brutal dictatorship that governed Syria as a police state. He imprisoned & tortured people. He is wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes & crimes against humanity.

Trump is literally trying to fly around on a plane from a foreign government while serving as President. That’s a violation of the Constitution. The Emoluments Clause wasn’t a suggestion. It’s the LAW.

Medicaid is NOT a handout. It’s how 4.8M Texans survive. Republicans want to cut $715B from it while handing out tax cuts to billionaires. That’s not “fixing” the budget, it’s disrespect for the people who need it most — and voting for that is un-American, plain and simple.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane. Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

Yes, I'm pissed about the jumbo jet too. But this is actually the most important story today.

When discussing the Qatari proposal to “gift” a plane to the US President, the only two relevant topics requiring discussion are professional ethics and level of corruption.

Tariffs have come down significantly from last week, but make no mistake: they’re still at their highest levels since WW2.

For those confused by the China tariff news: • Trump caved and got zero in return • No manufacturing moved back to the USA • 30% tariff is still a huge tax on Americans • 90 day pause still causes uncertainty • Trump lost all negotiating leverage

China agreed to reduce the tariffs they raised in response to Trump’s tariffs after Trump agreed to lower his tariffs. Create a problem, surrender, then declare victory.

Odd that those criticizing @gtconway.bsky.social for endorsing Diane Seltzer because he isn't a member of the DC Bar, ignore the fact that I have as well and I am a member. Vote Diane Seltzer for DC Bar president.

First, the company that owns TurboTax donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. Now, he’s going after Direct File, the IRS program that lets you file your taxes for free. Looks like Trump is choosing his corporate buddies over working families—again.

No person in the history of the US has made more money off being president and running for president. Not even close. Trump testified in his NY deposition that the value of “his brand” went from $3B to $10B the day he got elected in 2016. That was BEFORE most of his grifts. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Childcare isn’t a luxury. It’s not about 3 dolls vs 30. It’s shoes, strollers, diapers – what our kids actually need. I was talking to another mom at my daughter’s swim class this weekend. Our kids are growing like weeds. And because of these reckless tariffs, so are the costs.

Imagine converting to a new religion just 6 years ago & in that short time the leader of your new religion died hours after meeting you and the HOLY SPIRIT guided over 100 Cardinals to vote for his replacement who turns out to be a guy who hates you. Yeah, JD Vance is never seeing the pearly gates.

If you were looking to combat transnational crime, especially drug cartels, this is the exact office you would NOT shut down. This move by Trump's DOJ undermines any argument they want to prosecute international cartels, human traffickers, and gang members such as MS-13.
