So let me get this straight… Under Hegseth’s leadership, the Army is rolling out a policy that could kick out Black men for razor bumps—a medical condition that disproportionately affects us. Meanwhile, troops who refused the COVID vaccine? They got waivers. Sympathy. Career protection. 🧵

We now have a concentration camp in Florida. Stop pretending any of this is normal. If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person. Be human.

Hot take: Not only are work requirements for Medicaid bad, tying health care to work at all is cruel and we should be doing it less not more. Everyone deserves health care. Everyone.

Cory Booker lays out the current situation with the OBBB and where the possible Republican “no” votes could come from: So here we have a situation where we need four votes to stop this bill. We already have two: Thom Tillis and Rand Paul.

As we’ve reported before, ICE facilities are rife with human rights violations. Now, the Department of Homeland Security is trying to hide them, formally requiring members of Congress and their staff to give seven days’ notice before visiting immigration detention centers.

These fascist Border Patrol agents wear masks and dark sunglasses to hide their identity when they come — armed to the teeth — to round up a few day laborers at Home Depot. Fucking cowards.

Senate Republicans have lost their spines—all they do is bow down to Donald Trump and his billionaire donors. They know this bill will kill people. And they just look the other way.

I just forced a vote to try to strip out Republicans' defund Planned Parenthood provision from their Big Ugly bill. Republicans voted NO. They voted to shutter some 200 health clinics and deny women basic health care like cancer screenings & birth control. KILL THE BILL!

LISTEN TO THIS SHIT: Mark Kelly didn’t name names—but he did say this: One GOP Senator said Medicaid cuts were fine because “they’ll get over it.” Another, told it would cost lives, said: “We’re all gonna die anyway.” And this party still dares to call itself pro-life.

I worked at Planned Parenthood. They diagnose cancers while still treatable. They help women decide what birth control works for them. They help those working through mental health challenges. Defunding them just harms people who already struggle to find places to get care.

🚨The GOP provision to DEFUND Planned Parenthood is staying in the Big Ugly bill. Clinics will shutter. Women will lose access to cancer screenings, birth control, and basic care. I will be forcing a vote to try to strip it out. Fight like hell. We need to kill this bill.

Ossoff: "If we allow Affordable Care Act benefits to expire, as this bill would, more than a million Georgians will pay more for health insurance next year. A family of 4 in Clayton County making $65k a year - that's a $2,600 increase...the AJC reports 300k Georgians would lose insurance altogether"
