Yesterday the acting Attorney General said Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund for his cronies and insurrectionists was dead. Today, Trump walked it back in the Oval Office. I'm fighting to pass the SLUSH FUND Act to kill it permanently.
Trump tells CNN he doesn’t know if $1.8 billion fund is dead, calling it ‘a beautiful thing’ | CNN Politics
President Donald Trump declined to commit to permanently scrapping a $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund on Wednesday, telling CNN’s Kaitlan Collins he still considered the controversial initiative...

Vigil at the bridge in Tempe. It is a Tempe Rising event. Remember Alex Pretti.
Vigil for Alex Pretti, Renee Good, Silverio Villegas Gonzalez, Keith Porter Jr, and all the lives lost in ICE detention centers, January 25, 2026 in Tempe, AZ, with Tempe Rising Indivisible. @temperising.bsky.social @indivisible.org
Our Air Traffic Controllers are already stretched thin, and we haven't upgraded their equipment in decades. The U.S. must always be the gold standard for aviation safety. That's why I'm fighting to update technologies, decrease disruptions, and give controllers the tools they need to do their job.
Today, a red line has been crossed: Trump is threatening the Fed Chair with criminal charges for refusing to bend to his will. To business leaders and shareholders, now is the time to get very, very loud.
Trump's illegal tariffs are making the holidays more expensive.
You don’t fight drug trafficking by freeing the man who flooded our streets with cocaine. This pardon is an insult to law enforcement and a gift to the cartels.
Senator Kelly’s Arizona colleagues are standing with him in this critical moment.
Rep. Greg Stanton@repgregstanton.bsky.social · 11mo agoSenator Kelly is a combat veteran and a patriot. His message to the troops was not one of disobedience but of conscience — service members swear an oath to the U.S. Constitution, not to any one man.
What a week and it’s only Tuesday. See me on Jimmy Kimmel tonight to talk all about it.
Listen, Trump. Your continued threats will not intimidate me or keep me from doing my job, which includes oversight of the executive branch. Stop the threats of execution, hanging, and sending a mob before someone gets hurt. America deserves better.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social · 11mo agoNew threats from Trump: The president just endorsed a post reading, "Go get all those traitorous sons of bitches for sedition at the very least. Those pompous traitorous communists should be impeached and prosecuted."
This whole scheme is unethical and never should have passed in the first place.
Richardson’s departure is long overdue. His inexperience, incompetence and indifference at FEMA cost lives. When catastrophic flooding killed over 130 people in Central Texas, he was missing in action. 🧵
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 11mo agoBreaking news: David Richardson resigned as acting head of FEMA. Richardson was known for frequently being inaccessible, including during the early hours of the flood disaster in Texas over the Fourth of July weekend.
Epstein survivors are stepping forward again and calling on Congress to help uncover the truth. This fight isn't political — it's about accountability for unspeakable crimes. It's past time we vote to release the files to expose what happened and who's responsible.
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 11mo agoEpstein survivors just demanded the release of the files in this new PSA. Watch it here.
Cruel for no reason. A damaged wheelchair isn't just an inconvenience, it’s a complete loss of mobility. This rule would make flying safer and easier for passengers with disabilities, including our disabled veterans. @usdot.bsky.social should reverse course now.
USDOT will not enforce Biden wheelchair passenger protection rule
The U.S. Transportation Department said on Monday that it will not enforce key provisions of a Biden administration rule issued in December requiring new consumer protections for disabled passengers using wheelchairs.

I’ve heard from countless folks in #AZ04 who rely on Medicaid. When I vote no on this bill, I’ll be thinking of them.
Great news—Republicans’ ridiculous idea to sell off federal lands to the highest bidder has been ruled out of order in the Senate. Now we’re going to make sure this proposal doesn’t see the light of day in the House. Arizona’s public lands are NOT FOR SALE. 🏜️
Donald Trump doesn’t have the powers of a king, he has the powers of a president. We will take it to the courts each time he oversteps his authority. More from Politics Unplugged with Dennis Welch ⬇️
Yvette Hoffman jumped and with her own body shielded her daughter from the bullets of a Trump-inspired assassin at her front door.
Republicans' tax scam was already projected to rip away health care from 16 million Americans. Now they’re going after Medicare too—because billionaires want a tax cut. They’ll deny it. They’ll lie about it. But we see the plan & we’ll keep fighting back. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...
Medicare is a target as Senate GOP faces megabill math issues
Republicans have so far kept hands off the politically sensitive program. But senators are now desperate to find additional spending cuts.
