Trump says he won’t sign any other bills until the SAVE Act is passed, which requires voters to show proof of citizenship with expensive documents like passports.

Reminder: noncitizen voting is already illegal and incredibly rare. This is about voter suppression, plain and simple.

Make no mistake: the AI boom, and data center construction it requires, is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Tech oligarchs at the expense of our environment and our states’ public resources.

Our leaders should put communities before Big Tech's bottom lines.

It's scary how fast the hard-won civil rights progress that's been made over the last 60 years for Blacks, Women & LGBTQ, are being reversed by Republicans who fear losing power.

We must vote them out!πŸ’™

Can Trump cancel the election in all 50 states and DC? No. Can he even rig the rules for state run elections? Also no. Is it seriously alarming that the thought is on his mind? And that the media and the Dems don’t seem to think this is a big priority? Yes.

We need a ticker showing the cost to the American taxpayer every time a bomb is dropped, a jet takes flight, a warship moves etc

Seems to be plenty of cash for that, not for, you know, actual living.

Behind the MAHA Veil It's not about transparency or choice. It's not even about "natural health." It's about making everyone else take their quack cures.

β€œThe Kansas legislature passed a law invalidating the driver’s licenses of transgender citizens…There is no wayβ€”absolutely noneβ€”to explain this action as anything but punitive. The entire idea is to turn trans people into a criminal class.”

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Our top three legislative priorities are Medicare-for-All to ensure healthcare isn't tied to employment in an economy where jobs are disappearing, Universal Basic Income as a floor for workers displaced by automation, and a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United.

If we don’t call for the camps to be closed, no one will The history of Guantanamo tells us exactly what happens when people with "good intentions" confuse a dirty bandage with a cure.

We must state this clearly.

Our lawless regime is building a system of "human warehouses" that will function as concentration camps.

Most Americans have no idea that this could quickly exceed Japanese-American internment.

No national Democrats are calling for these camps to be stopped & closed.

Good morning! Just a reminder that today doesn’t have to be perfect, productive, or impressive to be enough. Simply showing up and breathing through the day is a victory worth celebrating, so be kind to yourself today. #Jaye’sMorningLight

Special Saturday Triad: What I Saw at the Battle of Minneapolis The national media has moved on. Minnesota is still under siege.

β€œSpending three days on the ground in Minneapolis brought home something that may not be obvious from afar: Minnesota, especially the Twin Cities, has beenβ€”and still isβ€”under a paramilitary occupation in which the federal government is at war with the population.”

Talarico says love thy neighbor is the second of two commandments Jesus called on Christians to honor, the first being love God. There is nothing about his Christian faith that should be seen as alienating non-Christians.

This is important to say because lots of liberals ain't hearing it.

What problem is Trump's new global 10% tariff meant to solve?

If it's about leverage, ask: How much leverage do you get from a tariff that disappears in 150 days?

If it's onshoring: Who builds new factories based on tariff that disappear before the factory is built?

It's a tax. That's all it is.

JFC. Will anyone in the media or the government explain to the American people that we HAD an agreement with Iran and the #MoronInChief pulled out of it? Where is the g.d. pushback? Why are no reporters pushing back on his bullshit? I don't think people understand this.

Howard Lutnick, US Commerce Secretary and architect of Trump's tariff plans, stepped down from Cantor Fitzgerald (now run by his sons) before taking office. Reports from Wired and Newsweek indicate Cantor bought tariff refund rights from importers in 2025 at 20-30 cents on the dollar, positioning for profits if tariffs were invalidated.

Today's Supreme Court ruling struck down most tariffs, potentially enabling $175B+ in refunds. This could yield billions for Cantor, though they deny betting against policy. A Senate probe examines conflicts.

Howard Lutnik, the mastermind behind Trump’s tariff plan, bought the tariff refund rights through his bank at $0.25 on the dollar last year. Actively betting on his own policy to not work.

Lutnik and his bank now stand to make billions.
