I've been taking a dry week (yeah, I know worst timing ever) and it's been just fine; however, today...I really want a drink. I have no idea why, it's not been a bad day, but I'd really like a drink. I'm not going to have one but still. I had to say it out loud.

Medicaid covers nearly half of all children born in the country and around two-thirds of nursing home care for seniors. The Republican Party is voting today on a budget framework with will gut Medicaid to finance more tax cuts for the top 1%. "Party of family values."

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that if Elon Musk really wanted to cut waste, he'd start with subsidies to Big Oil, loopholes to hedge funds, and all the waste from the Pentagon. Stop squeezing the little people, FFS.

That's what I wanted to hear.

I just overheard a somewhat valid argument that all of the cuts have to be made for the future. Yes, there are things that could be looked at. But knee-jerk ripping them away won't help the kids of tomorrow, they'll just imprison the ones of today because remember: being homeless is a crime.

Hey @msnbc.com You could have at the very least, thrown a white guy in the group y’all fired! Need a splint for your bent knee? Trump dictates. MSNBC obeys! #DemVoice1 #Voices4Victory

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

So we're 1 hour away from thousands of Government employees being potentially fired because there is infighting over this "show was you did" email. The DoD, FBI, and others are telling employees not to fill it out. The President says they're going to be fired. Nothing like being in the crossfire.

Trump and Musk are doing what was once thought impossible since Reagan: Making attacking the government unpopular, by viciously attacking the employees who work throughout the nation's communities.

I remember the quaint, good ol’ days when I only disliked Elon Musk for being a knob who ruined Twitter and Grimes

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

“Ultimately, we want lawyers who give sound constitutional advice and don’t exist to attempt to be roadblocks to anything that happens in their spots.” TRANSLATION: Trump and I want lawyers who won’t warn or try to stop us when we order the US military to do anything illegal. It’s coming. Soon.

The nighttime lineup on MSNBC has been my goto for several years now. This decision just confirms my own decision to drop cable news again after Rachel steps away from the 9pm hour. I loved Joy, and this is a terrible move. #SaveJoy Do better, MSNBC.

Trump wants Congress to pass the House GOP's version of a budget reconciliation bill that includes massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP to pay for tax cuts for the rich. The House is on recess, so now would be a great time to call your rep and share your thoughts. (202) 224-3121

NEW: The Washington Post has pulled out of an agreement to run an ad in its newspaper criticising Elon Musk. This is despite signing an agreement to publish it. Democracy dies in darkness. Here is the ad. Let’s share it far and wide! Screw the Post.
