Scenes from a commencement: With one word—“Welcome”—Harvard President Alan Garber drew a loud ovation from 30,000 graduating students, parents, alumni and others. When he welcomed “students from around the world, just as it should be,” the applause was thunderous.

Something spicy & delicious as a taco has gotten under Trumplestiltkin's thin tangerine skin. Seems the master of mean, juvenile nicknames can dish them out but when directed towards him, he can't take it, angrily calling it "nasty."🤣 Good to know. (you know what to do!) 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮🌮 🌮

It’s so fascinating to watch. How one man can sow such destruction. How one very bad, stupid, ignorant, cruel, dishonest, and psychopathic man can/will ruin and destroy so many lives. But here’s the thing. None of this is a surprise. Every single voter knew exactly who he was.

Illinois Republicans like Rep. Mary Miller, Rep. Mike Bost, and Rep. Darin LaHood just voted to take away health care from 13.7 million people — the majority working people simply without insurance. Why? All to give Trump’s friends at Mar-a-Lago another tax break. It’s shameful.

Now that House Republicans voted to take away your Medicaid look up your state to see how many are on Medicaid and will be affected by this cruelty Instead of helping those who need it Republicans chose rich tax cuts instead Call your Senators 1-202-224-3121 www.kff.org/medicaid/iss....

Health care for millions is at risk because Trump wants to give a tax break to his rich friends. This plan passed the House yesterday and is heading to the Senate, where we'll see which of my Republican colleagues stand up for their constituents and which ones bow down to Trump.

It’s not a “big, beautiful bill.” It’s a cruel, irresponsible bill. It hurts low income & working class families, and it dramatically increases the debt & the deficit. And btw, if it’s so big & beautiful, why did they pass it in the middle of the night when everyone is sleeping?

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care. They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

The CBO Finds Don’s Big Beautiful Bill Cuts $500 Billion from Medicare As such, the bill most likely cannot pass in the Senate But GOP House members will be on record voting for the most severe cut to Medicare in US history…for a bill that probably has no future—like the GOP Reps who vote for it

Boyle: "This is really the breaking news ... because of the size of the deficits, because of the paygo act, that would trigger sequestration of Medicare, and it would total over $500 billion. The official figure that CBO confirms is $535 billion in cuts to Medicare."

The GOP's budget would make brutal cuts to food assistance and our colleagues won't shield veterans from their cruelty. Veterans are not waste. They're not fraud. And they're not abuse.
