Mahmoud Khalil's attorney was not allowed to bring her laptop into his most recent hearing. Louisiana immigration Judge Jamee Comans deferred to private prison company GEO Group on the issue - even though DOJ policy says attorneys are allowed to have electronics in court

David Schweikert is not representing his constituents and needs to be voted out in 2026!

republicans are doing the most backroom deal, dead of night, reckless rush job imaginable on this bill. The absolute maniacal desire they have to rip away health care and take food away from kids in order to give their ultra wealthy buddies a fat pay day.

A lot of the estimates of the damage the reconciliation bill will do, the massive toll it'll take on poor and working Americans, are based on yesterday morning's language. Overnight, Republicans sped up the implementation of Medicaid work requirement by a full two years. It got much, much worse.

The House just passed a tax bill with huge cuts to Medicaid. We are appalled they chose to harm disabled people and take coverage away from millions of people to pay for tax cuts for the rich. We’re committed to making sure this doesn’t pass the Senate. Join us in telling Congress #ProtectMedicaid

This murderous antisemitic attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum is intolerable. We stand together as a community to condemn this appalling violence and hate. May Yaron and Sarah’s memories be a blessing to their families, friends and colleagues forever.

This intolerable attack on Harvard’s independence and academic freedom is plainly government retaliation for Harvard’s speech standing up for itself and the rule of law. America must rally to the side of Harvard and its students in court, in Congress and in our communities.

Wannabe dictator acting like a dictator.

a little on the nose that we're all depressed on world goth day

I'm not suggesting that moderates, progressives, liberals, and left-leaning believers collectively sell our souls the way our adversaries across the aisle have. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/while-the-...

House Republicans, on the orders of their Dear Leader, just passed their billionaire tax giveaway at the expense of everyone else. This bill slashes Medicaid & food & nutrition programs & explodes the deficit, driving up interest rates and costs. We must defeat it in the Senate.

Today Mahmoud Khalil is in immigration court urging the judge to let him go home to his wife and newborn son after over two months of detention, all in retaliation for his advocacy in support of Palestinian rights. We will always fight for Mahmoud’s freedom and defend his constitutional rights.

"Many are saying" the Trump Tariffs have plunged us into a Republican Recession. Trump's net worth has been increasing more than a billion dollars a month since he returned to office, but the rest of us are not in on his scams.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court affirmed the Oklahoma Supreme Court's decision to block a religious public charter school. This is a victory for the separation of church and state.

Even Trump's Treasury Secretary admits that the Trump Tariffs will make food and electronics more expensive. My Truth in Tariffs Act with @schumer.senate.gov will show Americans exactly how much more we're paying due to Trump's recklessness. No, China's not paying. We are.

When I attended my first Board of Visitors meeting a few weeks ago, I brought some of the books the Academy had banned — including Maya Angelou's "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" — and moved to end the ban. This is progress. We can’t stop fighting back.

He’s not gonna like this.

"Kennedy’s FDA is not merely removing the recommendation for the COVID booster and letting people make their own decisions," writes @jvl.bsky.social. "They are affirmatively restricting access to it." "They don’t want people to 'do their own research' ... Kennedy and MAGA want control."

House Republicans have finally released the complete version of their dreadful plan. And its confirmed our worst nightmares. This monstrous legislation demolishes health coverage and food assistance for millions. Heading to the Capitol for debate.

By continuing to support this man, you have gone against everything you told me was important growing up: decency, honesty, fairness, maturity, and empathy. Either you were lying then, or you're wrong now. Which one is it? johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/you-raised...

Secularism isn’t what’s driving people away from Christianity. What’s driving people away from Christianity are those who claim to follow Jesus, but completely ignore his teachings and use his name instead to amass wealth and political power.

“We are here today to say as Democrats, to say as independents, to say as Americans, that NO baby should go hungry so that Mark Zuckerberg can buy another Hawaiian island.” — @warren.senate.gov 🔥

There’s been a lot of drama from House Republicans today, but it boils down to this: They’re working around the clock to cut taxes for billionaires like Elon Musk while gutting Medicaid and vital services that benefit all Americans. It’s Exhibit A of the Great Trump Betrayal.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social: "Reality is that hospitals are gonna close, nursing homes are gonna shut down, people are going to die if these Medicaid cuts and their efforts to detonate parts of the ACA are successfully enacted into law."

@warren.senate.gov: "They're fighting over how many children should go hungry so that Mark Zuckerberg can buy another Hawaiian island."

@warren.senate.gov: "Republicans wanna do a bomb with a long fuse. They wanna say, 'We're gonna cut healthcare & food help for millions of Americans. We're gonna pass the law now, light the fuse, and it's not gonna explode until right after the 2026 election. That way Republicans can deny reality.'"

Horrifying that 2 Israeli embassy officials were just fatally shot outside the Capital Jewish Museum. Sending prayers & solidarity to the victims’ families, the wounded & everyone shaken by this appalling lethal violence.

I’m appalled by the vile attack on those attending an event at the Capital Jewish Museum, that has taken the lives of two Israeli Embassy aides. I’m praying for them and their loved ones. This is a horrific act of violence and antisemitism and the perpetrator must be brought to justice.

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.

Young people are the hope and future of our democracy, but they can’t learn on empty stomachs. I’m voting NO on the GOP Tax Scheme which slashes food assistance and nutrition for 4 million American kids.

The GOP Tax Scheme is top-down class warfare by the richest people in the world against everyone else.

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.

I know Marylanders who are alive today because of Medicaid. House Republicans are trying to pass legislation to take away poor people’s health insurance to give rich people more wealth insurance.

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

Trump promised not to cut Medicare, but his billionaire tax heist adds so much to the deficit that it will likely trigger more than $500 million in Medicare cuts. The super-rich get richer while seniors struggle to pay for medicine—all thanks to the GOP. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

They killed for being Israeli, not because they were Jewish. There's a difference. Palestinians don't want to kill Israelis because of their religion. They want to punish them for the ethnic cleansing and murders they are committing. It can't be condoned either way.

A VERY important point -- this bill is not final, not at all. It will now go to the Senate. If the Senate makes changes to the bill (they likely will), it will go back to the House for another vote. The House passed it last night with ONE VOTE. We can stop this. We have to.

"I care about social cohesion and social solidarity, which is why I tried to convince white people in Ohio that Haitian immigrants were eating their dogs." Naturally, Douthat does not challenge him at all on these lies.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that will cut billions of dollars from Medicaid. Medicaid is a lifeline for millions of people across the country, including more than 15 million people with disabilities. The Senate must reject this dangerous bill.
