Much of the Kodiak kickback was thrown out in Byrdbath so haveing moved the bill ahead to make passage possible Murkoswki can now vote no on the final bill (provided there are not 4 nos). This is the cynical, cruel and careerist politics we now face.

Why didn’t Sen Collins get these concessions for Mainers? Why did she just agree to let the bill proceed to debate instead? #mepolitics

It's weird how the people who have a problem with a Muslim being the leader of a city, have no problem with felon being the leader of a country

The vile anti-Muslim hate speech targeted at Zohran Mamdani cannot and will not be tolerated. There’s no place for this kind of bigotry in politics. Members of Congress must lead by example and call it out unequivocally.

Whoa! Alligator Alcatraz is going to be complete by Tuesday and open for operation on Wednesday. Am I the only one wondering how Ron DeSantis got this together so fast? Floridians, make sure you remember this the next time a hurricane hits and you can’t get disaster relief in your state.

The Trump admin has agreed to release from prison a three-time felon and spare him from deportation in exchange for his cooperation in the federal prosecution of Kilmar Abrego García. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Trump and @karolineleavitt ARE LYING TO ALL OF US. A second covert intelligence leak reveals Iranian ministers describe recent U.S. strikes on their nuclear sites as far less devastating than boasted. 1/2

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Apologize to Mamdani for using Tim Miller’s words as his!!! Attack tRump, not our own, 🫏🕳️!’n

1,500+ at our Townhall in Wichita, Kansas this morning. Working people across the nation are pissed off about this rigged economy, and they’re showing up. Wichita’s Congressman refuses to host a Townhall, so we pulled up instead.

Chris Murphy: "The CBO, nonpartisan, says it's gonna kick between 10 and 15 million people off their healthcare. And for what? To be able to afford a new $270,000 tax cut for the richest families in the country ... it's a moral abomination."

Take your masks off ICE, show us how proud you are adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/why-are-fe...

Nothing like the beaches of Lake Superior in the summer. Hot sun and cold water!

Between Trump attacking Tillis and Collins being forced to suck up to him, it feels like Democrats just picked up two Senate seats in 2026.

The 35 richest Republican members of Congress have a net worth of $2.5 billion.  They stand to gain from the GOP budget's tax cuts that disproportionately help the rich.  Meanwhile, they're cutting Medicaid and food assistance for millions of their constituents.

How Collins and Murkowski can sleep tonight I have no idea

OMG! My aunt Delores just forwarded me a Zohran Mamdani tweet from April 14, 1865 gloating about Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. Why aren’t people talking about this???

Susan Collins, Joni Ernst, and others should follow the example. wapo.st/4eoo36w

Baldwin: I remember my cross-examination of Secretary Kennedy from HHS, and he said, “We will have radical transparency.” But what they’ve actually had is radical opaqueness. They never answer a letter. They never answer a question. It’s one of the ways that democracy begins to degrade—

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

In Texas, AG Paxton seeks to schedule Robert Roberson’s death before his appeal can be heard, imperiling due process and laying a perilous national precedent, trampling justice for expedience, and risking the execution of an innocent man. www.salon.com/2025/0...

Thom Tillis will not seek reelection

Allowing immigration agents to identify people using face recognition technology, which is notoriously biased and unreliable, is a recipe for disaster. Congress must put an end to this dangerous practice.
