How many things have you done at 1AM that you’re proud of?

BREAKING: 1AM isn’t an accident. Rep. Jim McGovern sees through it. This is the GOP pulling the plug on Medicaid, cutting off food assistance, and abandoning rural hospitals—while praying the public is asleep. It’s not a hearing. It’s a hit job.

In the dead of night, House Republicans started the Rules Committee meeting to try and send Trump’s Tax Scam Bill to the House floor— so Americans wouldn’t see what they’re doing. @housedemocrats.bsky.social have been here since last night to shine a light on how harmful this bill is for Americans.

Congress should vote down Donald Trump’s reckless tax cuts ❌🔥❌ If it does not, a collision with the bond markets awaits

So true. They no longer hold the top spots-- and Benedict Arnold has also ceded his position as Top Traitor. What is it going to take? The complete collapse of our entire government? He CAN be stopped. Where are our lawmakers? #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Republicans are about to strip 13.7 million Americans of healthcare so does anyone know where I can find some nonstop coverage about the previous president being old??

McGovern: "Now of course you don't want anybody to know what you're doing here. It's because you know this bill betrays the people who voted for you...you are intentionally hiding what you are doing...that's what you guys think is big and beautiful: greed, corruption, & tax breaks for billionaires."

Don't miss the scariest committee hearing of the year.

WAIT..what happened to "pull yourself up by your own bootstraps"! AND "Real Americans dont take welfare"...🤔.

Nearly final CBO score of the GOP reconciliation plan is out. Their bill would cut program spending by $1.5 trillion but spend $312 billion more on defense, ICE, etc., for a total of $1.2 trillion in spending cuts. Plus $3.6 trillion in tax cuts. For a total of $2.4 trillion in higher deficits.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

When you disrespect your own voters…

Obama 2028. Because the Constitution no longer matters.

Who wants to slash Medicaid? NOBODY. Except the people in power. SHARE THIS!

Trump’s efforts to withhold military and intelligence support to Ukraine did not force that country to surrender, thank God for that. His threat to impose vigorous sanctions on Russia if it did not make peace proved as insubstantial as air. Now he wants to walk away. The art of the incompetent.

The lies are planned and coordinated. ⚖️ youtu.be/LhJR9qkQn8E?...

Voters of America. House GOP will be holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want YOU to know about their scheme to strip MILLIONS of Americans of health coverage. Just further proof on how UNTRUSTWORTHY these republicans really are. They're hiding what they're doing.

💯💥👇🏼 #FactsMatter 💫

PRIVILEGE is getting paid FOR committing a crime.......

Do not compromise with the GOP. Dismantle the GOP.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it. I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Ah yes, the “golden age.”

This is a political time to wake up EVERYDAY prepared to Speak Truth to Power!.........

Good News, per Democracy Docket! "SCOTUS declined to take a case from Michigan GOP lawmakers who used the radical independent state legislature theory to challenge two voter-approved pro-voting amendments to the Michigan Constitution. The amendments will remain in effect." www.democracydocket.com

We will not win the battle for democracy if those in the pro-democracy movement prize caution over taking risks. We cannot permit ourselves to be deterred by the inevitable defeats and public criticism that are inevitable along the long path of restoring democracy.

1/It’s important to not lose sight of the facts. Despite his election to the presidency, Donald Trump is a convicted felon. Two fed'l cases, each bringing serious charges voted on by a grand jury, were dismissed—only because Trump won the election. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...
