honestly? the entire national media apparatus and so so many people give the GOP a pass because “they’re just like that.” but they’re freaks who live in fear of holding a town hall & making the president cranky & i think a lot more people could stand to call GOP reps daily & remind them they suck.

Republicans snuck an amendment into this bill to ban Affordable Care Act insurance plans from covering abortion care. This is part of their play for a national abortion ban, in the middle of the night, and ripping healthcare away from millions.

I promise you the White Christian nationalist regime staffed by neo-Nazis doesn’t give a single shit about the safety of American Jews. Let’s not pretend they do.

For all the shit talking people direct at Dems, they really are fighting this thing tooth and nail and they deserve a whole lot of credit

The GOP held a hearing on their unfinished thousand-page bill at 1:00 AM. Now they’re getting ready to hold the final vote on the largest destruction of health care in American history in the dead of night.

If the GOP Tax Scheme is so beautiful, then why are they voting on it in the wee hours of the morning? Maybe because it’s irredeemably ugly and cruel.

The GOP Tax Scheme represents the largest wealth transfer from the poor to the rich in American history.

If I were trying to starve schoolchildren and take away healthcare from millions, all so billionaires could have more tax cuts, I'd probably do it in the middle of the night, too.

I am certain that we will not hear about deficits and debt ever again from Republicans who are about to vote for a bill that adds more debt to a country’s balance sheet than any piece of legislation in the history of the human race.

The GOP just rammed through a budget that starves kids, abandons seniors, and guts Medicaid—all to bankroll billionaires. It’s a moral disgrace. Democrats fought like hell for 30 hours to stop it. Now it heads to the Senate. We need to rise up, unify, & have their backs. This is a war on humanity.

The “big, beautiful” bill ain’t beautiful—it’s bullshit. House Republicans just voted for the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. history—turning their backs on their own damn constituents: the working people they were sent here to represent. They don’t serve the people. They serve the rich.

I spotted this Great Egret on Central Park's Harlem Meer just as it was taking off. Believe it or not, this is no more than 50 yards from Fifth Avenue. 🥰🥰🥰 #Egret #CentralPark #birding

I voted NO on their “big, beautiful” bill because it will strip health care from 14 million Americans—including nearly 130,000 people in my district who rely on Medicaid.

In the past 18 hours, Acyn with Meidas was up all night. He posted 32 clips of Democrats opposing the budget on the floor, 24 clips of Dems in the Rules Committee, and 18 clips of interviews we did of Dems off the floor. We also spotlighted many Dems who never get media airtime.

Tanning beds get tax breaks but not hospital beds… MTG gets her PPP loans forgiven for hundreds of thousands of dollars but people working to pay off their student loans can’t get their loans forgiven. The double standards are becoming more blatant. #StopTheBillionaireBailout #TheCrueltyIsThePoint

Be Best 2.0 🤣🤣

You know who is getting stuck with this debt, right? The corporations& billionaires who've purchased the GOP are getting what they paid for. The GOP is aiming to kneecap the Federal Trade Commission so corporate monopolies won't get challenged they can price gouge us, #StopTheBillionaireBailout

Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country. Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?

Unbelievably ignorant dog shooter. She is an absolute abomination I can't f****** stand anything about her or the administration or that orange-faced ignorant buffoon or that punchable Mike Johnson fake Christian I've had it!

🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did. 🚨🚨🚨

Soo...it wasn't a gift, it was an ask.

I’ll take imbecilic puppy killers for $500, Alex

This 👇 foiled again!

Could America love Tim Walz more.......💙💯💙

Bruce Springsteen & Taylor Swift should hold a benefit concert on the day of Trump’s stupid parade! It would be a spectacular FK You to him and it would also divert the media’s attention away from him and his bootlicking minions. Just a thought! 😉

How many of you believe that what has been reported as an assassination attempt in Butler was something that was part of something darker and wider-reaching, and that the American people do not have the truth about what actually happened?

I'm sure Elon Musk told me there were 20 million dead people collecting Social Security. I distinctly remember that.

When will voters ever learn that the GOP is not the fiscally responsible party?

They received presidential pardons for this ‘message’ and it wasn’t seashells on a beach.

Putin has gifted Trump with a brand new IPhone made of gold. Can be used as the Phone Force One for the next few years. "Why would we not accept this beautiful gigt, are we stupid?" says Trump.

WATCH LIVE from Cedar Rapids, Iowa: Pete Buttigieg joins VoteVets for a town hall on the MeidasTouch Network. Veterans, military families, and Iowans speak out on the stakes—and the policies failing those who served.

Kitten Kong!

When I was in high school in Japan, I saw THE MOTOWN REVUE on base w/ The 4 Tops, Martha & the Vandellas & "Little" Stevie Wonder. To this day, one of greatest live shows I've ever seen & w/ the military supplementing the cost, easily the best $1.50 I've ever spent. For Stevie: 🎂(also: many 🙏's!)

The Republicans just dropped their Screw America Budget—and @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social is ready to fight back. Have you called your Rep. yet? There’s no time to waste. 📱 202-224-3121 NOW and remind them that they work for us! Say NO to these cuts!

Democratic Supreme Court Justice Allison Riggs has finally been seated and sworn in. It’s only been six months and eight days since she beat her Republican opponent Jefferson Griffin. It has been one hell of a ride but Democracy eventually prevailed. Congratulations Justice Riggs!!

it’s wild how the democratic party is not going to change and will continue embracing the tired centrists after a decade of losing power on all levels
