The Trump administration pays El Salvador President Nayib Bukele's government $6 million to house prisoners it sends to CECOT. That’s the prison where Kilmar Abrego Garcia is currently being held. If the US controls the purse strings, then don’t pay El Salvador until Abrego Garcia comes home.

The number of people who respond to this with “filibusters do nothing” or “they have to vote no!” makes me think that way too many people do not understand current Senate rules.

Wow. This is from a Trump II State Dept appointee, Tibor Nagy, unloading on the DOGE shitshow as a "stage production which combined elements of a tragicomedy with the Twilight Zone." Again, this is a Trump guy talking. www.lubbockonline.com/story/opinio...

Cannot stress enough how life-changing it has been for some of my international students to experience education where free inquiry includes the right to criticize the institution or host country. It changes those from different contexts, and they take new ideas about free expression back with them.

Put aside what you think about the NEH. If Congress wants to debate and do this, it has the authority. Neither the President nor his unconfirmed appointee have any authority to do it by their own dictat.

The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

FYI, BREAKING: House Rs have put language into the rule on the Budget Resolution to block the House from being forced to vote on legislation revoking theTrump Tariffs. So a vote for this rule today is a vote in favor of the Trump Tariffs. I gather the vote is now scheduled in the 3:30-4:30 hour.

This is big: House Republicans tucked language into the budget res “rule” that bans the House from voting to terminate Trump’s emergency declaration used to impose tariffs. TL;DR lawmakers who vote for this are officially giving up their power to revoke his tariffs until October.

The state of Canada’s “universal healthcare” after decades of neo-liberal gov’t: My 90-yr old mum’s private doctor, which she needs due to the doctor shortage in our collapsing public system, is upping his annual fee by $600. Now totalling $3,600. She pays her taxes. She’s already PAID for care.
