Nailed it.

At what point do leaders in the GOP band together (since they seem to lack courage individually) & say enough is enough? The party of Reagan becomes the tool of Putin if they don’t, especially after last night.

NEW — 19-year-old DOGE engineer Edward Coristine turns out to be the grandson of former KGB spy Valery Martynov, who played a role in a sprawling 1980s espionage saga. www.jacobsilverman.com/p/prominent-...

Secretary Turner wants to cancel HUD programs that serve seniors and people with disabilities. Harming seniors and vulnerable Americans does not make our government more efficient. Senator Warren, Senator Smith, and I are holding this Administration accountable.

I've seen some people say, "Trump is acting like a king, so why bother calling Congress?" That is exactly what Trump wants you to think. If you think he's a king & if you ignore what Congress is doing, you're letting him get away with lots of crap. He still depends on Congress.

Infuriating! 😡 Don’t Cut My Medicaid! The majority of my son’s medical team are in Austin (1.5 hr drive), some in Houston (3 hrs), one in Dallas (5 hrs). Telehealth appts are needed & necessary! My son has extreme car anxiety, not to mention wear and tear on our car, gas! 🤬 And we’re not alone!

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.

great news!! my company reaffirmed and doubled down on their commitment to diversity equity and inclusion. yes it’s the bare minimum but it’s good seeing architecture leadership (they’re all old white guys everywhere you go) being pushed towards progress and listening to their very diverse designers

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

How it started. How it’s going

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.
