Republicans in Congress are planning to write a $15 BILLION check to Meta simply for existing.

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are planning to write a $15 BILLION check to Meta simply for existing โ€” paid for by cutting health care for millions of Americans.

They care more about helping billionaire corporations than helping you.

The level of bald-faced, open racism that we are now seeing is simply gobsmacking.

Far worse than anything I can remember in the US in my lifetime.

Why Did a 75-Year-Old Man in Poor Health Just Die in ICE Custody? Isidro Perez came to the United States from Cuba nearly 60 years ago. This is who Stephen Miller is going after now?

Just awful: A 75-year-old man just died in ICE custody, ICE has revealed in a notice to Congress.

But here's the rub: This man, a Cuban national, was first paroled into the US in 1966โ€”nearly 60 years ago! They were set to deport him anyway.

If there was ever a time to call your Senator, this is it.

Voting has begun on the GOP plan to cut off health care for working-class Americans and slash taxes for the wealthiest.

Thereโ€™s something deeply wrong with a society that watches people get snatched by masked men in unmarked cars & looks the other way.

Rep @kamlager-dove.house.gov, describes an alarming system of relocating detainees, making it nearly impossible for their families to find them or get legal counsel.

It is obscene to give tax breaks to the top 1% by throwing more than 16 million people off health care, cutting nutrition for hungry kids and making it harder for working class young people to go to college.

That is exactly what Trump's budget reconciliation bill does.

In todayโ€™s episode of What Are They Thinking: โ€œIf you donโ€™t see a hurricane comingโ€ฆ does it really exist?โ€

๐Ÿšจ The Dept of Defense is shutting down its weather satellite program. No more data. No more updates. Meteorologists are scramblingโ€”and weโ€™re heading into peak storm season.

Brilliant timing.

Well, this we can agree on, even Senator Thom Tillis is calling out his own colleagues: โ€œToo many elected officials are motivated by pure raw politics who donโ€™t really give a damn about the people they promised to represent on the campaign trail,โ€ the North Carolina Republican wrote.

Whenever in my lifetime, a lawmaker, a public servant had been assassinated, every siting president, regardless of party, would have attended their funeral, expressed condolences to the family, tried to comfort them, their community and the country.
I really miss that grace, that compassion

It's incredible that neither the president nor VP was here. The politicization of all facets of American life is coming from the White House. No other American president would have failed to pay their respects. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

From a distance you can see a mountain landscape with a blue sky and a few hazy clouds. on the sides of the picture you can see parts of trees. On the left in light green, on the right a smaller dark green tree further away. in the center is a black box on which is written in white โ€œOnly caring about your own right is exactly how you lose themโ€.

Working people across the nation are pissed off about this rigged economy, and theyโ€™re showing up. Wichitaโ€™s Congressman refuses to host a Townhall, so we pulled up instead.
