It is a FACT that I have a separate compartment for restaurant tortilla chips and salsa.

Morning, America.

This is what it looks like to have a President spend millions of taxpayer dollars to play golf in Scotland while his party guts healthcare and food programs.

(And on a point of golf etiquette, only a galactic piece of shit walks off & refuses to get his own ball from the hole)

Trump's Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick just relaxed export restrictions on AI chip manufacturers AMD and Nvidia.

Lutnick's family business empire holds a combined $1.1B stake in both companies.

"Conflict of interest" is an understatement.

Trump is demanding five new congressional seats in Texas through an illegal mid-decade redistricting. Republicans are hoping you “don’t show up, don’t come out” to stop them from rigging the maps, but we won’t be silent!

Here’s the calls you can make to Stop the Texas Steal 🧵

The biggest divide in our politics is not left vs right — it's top vs bottom.

Billionaires are dividing us because our unity is a threat to their wealth and power.

I went on Joe Rogan’s show to bridge the divide and build a coalition big enough to take power back.

Internal agency documents and a source briefed on the issue, reported that FEMA’s call answer rate dropped from 99.7% on July 5 to 15.9% by July 7, shortly after four call-center contracts were not renewed. According to the documents, FEMA received 16,419 calls on July 7 and answered 2,613.

Gallup has new polling on immigration. Topline findings:
-Americans hate Trump's immigration policy (35% approve, 62% disapprove)
-Share who say immigration is a "good thing" for the country just hit an all-time high (79%)

Greg Abbott called a special session—at Trump’s request—to rig Texas’s congressional map before 2026.

TX-09, TX-18, TX-29 & TX-33 are all safe Democratic seats, now under attack. Texas Democrats won’t back down.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Today proves that Republicans were serious about one promise: to cut taxes for the wealthy. All the rest was bullshit.

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

The Senators that voted 'yes' on this disastrous bill represent more than 30 million FEWER Americans than the Senators that voted 'no.'

No honor among thieves. 🤷🏼‍♀️ (I actually would expect a gang of thieves to be more upstanding than Paxton and company.)

Mahmoud Khalil is finally home with his beautiful wife and newborn son.

Each one of the 104 days he spent detained was a grave injustice.

From the moment of his detention, @ccrjustice.org + @aclu.org engaged my office as we worked closely to help secure his release. They did remarkable work here.

If that’s what they do to a United States Senator with a question, imagine what they can do to any American that dares to speak up. We will hold this administration accountable.

Of course he does; he’s a white supremacist.

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

No matter where you’re from, call it pop when you drink a pop. So wholesome. Drink a “soda”? What am I, a chemist?
