The Trump administration pays El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's government $6 million to house prisoners it sends to CECOT. That’s the prison where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is currently being held. If the US controls the purse strings, then don’t pay El Salvador until Abrego Garcia comes home.

This seems right, and all of this is WRONG.

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

Marth Stewart went to prison for insider trading on *one* stock. Marjorie Taylor Greene bought *17* stocks just before Donald Trump declared his "pause" in tariffs that caused those stocks to rise in value. How many others were tipped off? How many stocks did Donald buy? Ivanka? Mike Johnson?

" #Louisiana has four of the eight #Republican-held congressional districts with the most #Medicaid expansion enrollees. #HouseSpeaker #MikeJohnson’s northwest Louisiana district is one of them.

I would say more broadly that as policy you really shouldn’t allow government officials to accuse people of *terrorism* anonymously.

My family got these payments when my dad died at 34 years old after serving in the Navy for a decade from what he had paid in. I was five. Jeanine is an incurious ignoramus. Thanks @jessicatarlov.bsky.social for correcting her, which is God’s work.

Okay, let me get this right ↙️    - Pissing off moms  - Ripping off consumers  - Taking away voting rights  - Undermining the judiciary   - Tanking the economy  - Gutting Medicaid and  - Blowing a $37T hole in the debt    That is the GOP's agenda this week??? Stellar job guys. 👏

Complete waste!!!

So… Tonight Republicans pulled the plug on their own budget and tax package because fiscal conservatives in the House are demanding even deeper cuts to social and other vital programs to pay for tax breaks for billionaires. Here’s what’s going on. ⬇️

I’ve shared this piece by @sranderson.bsky.social so many times now and I guess I gotta do it again sigh www.lawfaremedia.org/article/why-...

#VoterSupression is underhanded by the #GOP through the #SAVE Act. #stopTHISsteal of your #American right!!

This is ridiculous. American businesses will fail because of this. People won’t be able to retire or send their children to college. This man has no idea what he’s doing and has surrounded himself with yes men who won’t tell him no.

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA): "I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"
