Mitch McConnell told Senate Republicans that Americans concerned about losing Medicaid will “get over it." No one will “get over” losing a loved one because Republicans in Congress failed them.

great reminder to all of those Democrats and liberals saying that we need to abandon red states because they are gerrymandered into right wing autocracies where the vote isn’t in their favor instead of accepting that we are gonna have to fight for every American no matter where they are.

Republicans are jamming through the GENIUS Act which will turbocharge Donald Trump’s crypto corruption. We need an amendment vote to stop the President, Vice President, and senior government officials from directly or indirectly profiting from a stablecoin venture.

Really important story - army officials asked soldiers to identify themselves if they don't agree with Trump's politics that way he'd get only supportive soldiers in uniform during his political rally on base. Heavier soldiers were also barred from participating.

“The law will not stop Trump’s attack on L.A., because laws do not stop authoritarians. Only the people can do that. And the people, a majority of them, elected Trump to do exactly what he is doing: use violence against the Americans they disagree with.”

Counterpoint: Jail. We are going to pursue Elon Musk if it’s the last thing America does, prosecute him for crimes and violations of the Constitution, and throw him in jail. If we do not do this, our country will not survive. Accountability is essential.

It’s remarkably brave of these folks to write this, and it’s galling that they have to, in part, because prestige media can’t straightforwardly make the point they so eloquently do.

House Republicans just passed Trump’s Tax Scam (the GOP’s Medicaid-slashing, billionaire-enriching megabill) in a 215-214 vote. The bill got even worse overnight, but the most important thing to know right now is this: This fight isn’t over, and this bill can still be stopped. 🧵

Important thread and it's extremely important to know that this isn't over. I particularly want to stress that if you are in a district Represented by a Republican who voted for the bill, an immediate thing to do alert the public and the media in your area. Indivisible has other suggestions.

Musk's Starlink was having a hard time getting permits abroad. Then Trump slapped tariffs on basically everything we buy from overseas—and suddenly countries negotiating trade deals started giving Starlink sweet deals! Looks like textbook corruption—and we're all paying for it.

Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own. State-owned property.

Donald Trump’s termination of Register of Copyrights, Shira Perlmutter, is a brazen, unprecedented power grab with no legal basis. It's surely no coincidence he acted less than a day after she refused to rubber-stamp Elon Musk’s efforts to mine troves of copyrighted works to train AI models.

TODAY: We need every Senate Democrat to vote no on a crypto bill that would enable Trump to keep accepting bribes from billionaires, corporations, and foreign governments. We can block S.394 if Democrats unite in opposition, but they’re not there yet, so make sure your senators hear from you ASAP. 👇
