This is horrid news. What happened?

NEW: The Wisconsin Supreme Court declines to hear a Democratic lawsuit challenging the state's congressional map as a partisan gerrymander. Though Wisconsin is a competitive swing state, Republicans hold six of eight congressional districts. From: @jenrice.bsky.social‬

The CBO says this bill increases the deficit by $3.4 trillion over 10 years and includes the largest Medicaid cut in history. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump brazenly lies: "We're cutting $1.7 trillion in this bill and you're not gonna feel any of it. Your Medicaid is left alone. It's left the same."

He's not well.

After getting blocked the first time, Sen. Mike Lee is revising his land grab plan and trying to sneak it back into the “Big 💩 Bill.” The new proposal would force the sale of up to 1.2 million acres of public land managed by the Bureau of Land Management.

I like millions of others have taken the oath multiple times, I don't recall anything in that Oath advocating betraying the people, country or anyone seeking asylum which is the foundation of this country. We are all immigrants, except for the indigenous tribes!

This woman is a menace. I despise her.

These ICE raids are nothing more than abductions. We aren’t told where they go, what they’re doing to them, if they’re being humanely treated (we’ve been told they aren’t feeding them or giving them enough water). The U.S. government is abducting people and torturing them at the taxpayer’s dime.

Gutting Medicaid will gut rural communities. For rural hospitals, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Closures will come. We’ve seen it before in states that blocked Medicaid expansion. Hospitals shut down & never come back. Listen to Jon Tester. He’s not guessing. He’s warning‼️ #MedicaidSavesOurLives

I, for one, am outraged at the racist Islamophobia masquerading as defending Jews and rooting out “anti-Semitism.” If some Jews here feel deeply compelled to defend Israeli actions no matter what, I am OK with Muslims here feeling deeply compelled to support Palestinians. Me, personally, I am

i’m telling yall, get whatever vaccines you need now bc there’s no guarantee they’ll be around later

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

"White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller’s obsession with kicking millions of undocumented immigrants out of the country is a byproduct of his hateful ethnonationalism — but he also stands to make a pretty penny off the administration’s deportation agenda."

Stephen Miller Has Financial Stake in Company Helping ICE With Deportations: Report

Stephen Miller reportedly has a financial stake in Palantir, which is helping ICE deport undocumented migrants.

On Islamic Republic of Iran state media channels, stories and posts about President Trump often refer to him as “Criminal Trump,” almost as if it’s a title. “Today, Criminal Trump announced that he will be signing a new budget bill..”

They really believed immigrants and black people compete for the same jobs so now white farmers are complaining that black people arent willing to work the jobs the immigrants they wanted deported used to work. Now they going bankrupt. Lol

Narcissistic personality disorder can NOT be cured. There’s far too much misinformation flying around that gives NPD abuse victims false hope. Leaving is the only solution for victims.

Certainly close enough to the real truth!

Just to remind you of how good a deal the JCPOA was. It “obliterated” far more of Iran’s nuclear program than Trump and Bibi’s bombs - and it didn’t cost us a dime. I write this ten years ago. slate.com/news-and-pol...

This is REALLY bad--and an utterly predictable consequence of military action. Inspectors can't now verify Iran's several bombs worth of highly enriched uranium. This is a MUCH bigger risk than whether the damage done to Fordow meets expectations.

This doesn't just violate separation of powers it violates judicial oaths which declare the judge will uphold the Constitution and our laws, administer the law fairly and impartially. There is no judicial independence - a cornerstone of our legal system - without this.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act. Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes? Staffer: a DL and birth certificate. Me: The documents don’t match Staffer: Then a marriage certificate. Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too? Staffer: No Me: See the problem?

60% of Americans can’t afford basic living expenses. The Republicans’ Budget Bill proposes cutting nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid, Medicare & SNAP—while refusing to tax the rich, the same greedy individuals who won’t even pay their workers a living wage. Call your Senators today: ☎️ 202-224-3121
