A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

He nails it.

Now Republicans are talking about cutting Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and supplemental food programs, although Republican-dominated counties rely on those programs more than Democratic-dominated counties do.

Thank you @booker.senate.gov for all your work!

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

When I look up and see such miracles in the sky, I think all hope cannot be lost.

Stephen King has returned to Twitter. 10/10. No notes. 🔥

Golden fire in the sky so wide, Waves embrace the shore in stride. Clouds drift by in a purplish hue. As sunset paints the world anew. Soft sands whisper, tides retreat, Day and night in a dance repeat. A lighthouse stands, a steadfast guide, As stars awaken and light the tide.

Floating the idea of them stupid ass checks from DOGE is literally a distraction while they keep ruining the country. "Here's 5000 bucks, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" (wizard of oz reference)

Without friends

Don’t forget NASCAR and the SuperBowl 💸💸💸

This image of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky shaking hands with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is more than just a photo-op—it’s a stark signal that Europe is waking up to a grim reality. The United States, once the bedrock of NATO and Western unity, is no longer a reliable partner.

How much is Congress cutting from their $6.5 billion/year budget? Don’t you think congress can operate on say, maybe, $5 Billion? And each congressman has 18 staff, they could operate on say, 14? What about the White House?

Van Hollen: "Can you imagine FDR in the middle of WW2 saying to Churchill, 'you know, we're not going to continue to help you until you turn over half of your coal and mineral reserves.' That's not how you behave when you want to support a friend who's under attack by an authoritarian like Putin."

The JFK Library in Boston is reportedly closed indefinitely because of federal job cuts

It’s a conundrum. 🤷‍♂️

Read this and try not to fume. Especially as you think of 47 wasting taxpayer money at the Super Bowl, Daytona and while playing golf half his presidency.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Jim Acosta: I think the AP should consider whether or not to sue the administration… and the rest of the press corps should start seriously considering whether it’s worth sending everyone into the Oval Office, onto Air Force One, or into the briefing room.

They love to dish it but they can never take it.
