Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Pay attention: Senate Republicans are trying to ram through extreme anti-abortion judges right under our noses. Their goal? A nationwide abortion ban. I’ll keep fighting back against nominees that want to take away our freedoms.

what a stupid presidency, what a stupid fucking war

Why did folks stop talking about grocery prices? I just left the store and OMFG…

A federal judge found Florida AG James Uthmeier in civil contempt after he snubbed a court order in an immigration case and then boasted about it in interviews.

Puberty blockers and hormones for cis kids: fine Mastectomies for cis boys: fine Puberty blockers for trans kids: ILLEGAL Mastectomies for trans boys: ILLEGAL

I've said it many times before and Andrew Cuomo is making me say it again: we don't have a cancellation problem. We have never had a cancellation problem. To the contrary, we have a problem that "disgrace" is a very temporary embarrassment— an brief entr'acte more than an intermission.

Trump posted this deranged message ordering every federal agency, including the pentagon, to do mass deportations in major cities because of trans people. I wish I was joking.

Two Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota, State Senator John Hoffman and State Representative Melissa Hortman, were shot in their own homes overnight.

Impeach and remove

If that’s what they do to a US Senator with a question, imagine what they do to farm workers, day laborers, cooks, and the other nonviolent immigrants they are targeting in California and across the country. Or any American that dares to speak up. I will not stop fighting to demand accountability.

The head of the fema command center quit. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/12/c...

Free speech is not a crime — full stop.

Because there is no threshold.

For nearly 60 years, voters and groups have used the Voting Rights Act to file lawsuits against racially discriminatory policies. But suddenly one federal appeals court has decided that was all wrong — and its ruling must be reversed.

Bernie: "What that is all about is that if you're rich in America, you can make campaign contributions, you are entitled to massive tax breaks because you're superhuman beings. But if you're a poor working stiff, working at McDonald's, struggling to put food on the table, you're entitled to nothing"

A win! A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to eliminate Job Corps a Department of Labor program that provides job training to young people entering the workforce.

"Zohran Mamdani has stood shoulder to shoulder with us in our fight against some of the toughest bosses in New York City. He's been to countless UAW picket lines. He's fought for better wages, for our livelihoods, and for a livable city for UAW members." - @shawnfainuaw.bsky.social

Republicans think the tax payer funded government is their ideological slush fund!

Side note: a couple of hours before Trump announced this, Harvard Divinity School announced that they’ve received the highest number of applications for the 2025 cycle *ever.*

Fuck him. I hope he dies a painful death someday.

Pocan dominated Vought during this exchange about the BS Vought is spreading about how the reconciliation won't add to the national debt

🚨Another HUGE bit of news tonight; in collaboration with the Trump admin, Texas just kicked 20,000 undocumented college students — people who grew up in Texas and graduated from high school there — out of eligibility for in-state tuition. This may force thousands to drop out.

Dems now are George W. Bush Republicans.

Narrator voice: In fact it had nothing to do with the Boulder attack news.bloomberglaw.com/product/blaw...

Republicans are still claiming that tax cuts for billionaires and corporations will "stimulate the economy" and we'll all be better off. They do this every time they get in power. Can anyone remember a single time where this actually worked? Because for as I can remember, we always get a recession.

@jasonleopold.bsky.social recently reported that State lost half of its FOIA office. Last year it took the department 564 days to process an average complex FOIA request (which constitute most requests the dept receives, I'd bet). It's fair to expect most requests will now take 2 years or more.

President Trump ordered an investigation of former President Biden's actions and autopen use, citing his "cognitive decline" www.cnn.com/2025/06/04/p...

🗞️ The @washingtonpost did a piece on my fight to defend @JoeBiden and his legacy. As I told them: no cover-up. No scandal. Just a good man, a damn good president — and too many folks who should know better but are piling on anyway. Give it a read. 👇 wapo.st/4dOm5fz

I hope something good happens to you today.

WASH POST lays out how DOGE is making things less efficient and harder in every way, down to the most basic purchases and projects: “New procedures and requirements are slowing down federal agencies” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

“If you haven’t been poor, don’t legislate for the poor.”👇

Democrats… learn something from this

Not even not a New Yorker, I’m not convinced he’s a human being

Oh.

It is deeply hilarious that the Hudson's Bay Company was founded in 1670 and chugged along for three and a half centuries and Private Equity finished it off in like five years.

Florida....

JUST IN: The Trump administration says Secretary RUBIO is "personally handling" discussions with El Salvador over the return of wrongly deported migrants. He has a "personal relationship" with Bukele that dates to his time on Foregn Relations Committee. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

😐

Iowa, come get your Senator. Joni Ernst isn’t fighting for Iowa—she’s fighting for Trump’s approval and billionaire donors. So damn condescending.

#ProudBlue Come on folks! Will you believe now that TACO is insane? This conspiracy theory tops them all! Get him the hell out of our WH! This is dangerous🤬

Critical thinkers did not think that for one second. MAGA idiots absolutely believed it. We all heard the lemmings repeating the propaganda like it was gospel, never questioning their holy broligarch prophets.

We're all living in the danger zone. What the hell is going on and why!
