Sounds like ICE killed a guy and then held american citizens hostage at gunpoint until they agreed to destroy the evidence

Pretty incredible interview with NY Liberty's Natasha Cloud telling Trump to fuck around and find out about attacking Zohran.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

On the left: Malliotakis giddily high fiving after voting to steal healthcare & food from her constituents while megasizing ICE.

On the right: how she β€œlistens” to her constituents.

We cannot wait to vote this shameful ghoul out of office.

The most patriotic way to honor July 4th is protest.

We gathered to Die In in front of Trump Tower as MAGA prepares to sign into law a devastating bill literally designed to kill people.

New York City will not tolerate fascism.

The GOP had to buy Sen Murkowski's vote with carveouts on the devastating SNAP provisions before she cast the deciding vote.

NY GOP is more shameful, giving away their vote for nothing and selling out their constituents purely out of cowardice.

NY GOP still have time to find a spine.

Nicole has been lying about this bill for MONTHS so let’s tell some Brooklyn TRUTHS.

Here’s another fact: if she doesn’t vote to protect her constituents, her constituents will vote her out!

the Senate's small-state ultra-bias is never more maddening than when one senator uses it to get benefits for her 740,000 constituents while openly acknowledging the bill she's supporting will harm the nation's 339 million other residents.

Some Brooklyn constituents call on Republican U.S. Rep. Malliotakis to vote against Trump's megabill "Hopefully, people will join this fight. Because it's a fight for life," said Lisa Raymond of Indivisible Brooklyn, a social-justice group.

This will be a great video for campaign work against Malliotakis in the mid-terms.

Is it possible her staff feels some shame about this? Or are they just cowards who won’t stand up for their boss or the people?

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose β€œno” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

Original thread. Ask Jeffries: what procedural tools will you tell the caucus to use to slow the bill down? Will you tell your caucus to take over and hold
the House floor?

Schumer and Jeffries should condemn this and demand an apology from the President - or they should resign, or be primaried.

Lisa Murkowski negotiating special deals on behalf of her state only while shafting the rest of us with her vote is the most Republican thing ever.

Where it starts is never where it starts. The news that DOJ is prioritizing denaturalizations, combined with very vague explanations of who they will prioritize, is deeply concerning. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Between Trump attacking Tillis and Collins being forced to suck up to him, it feels like Democrats just picked up two Senate seats in 2026.

As GOP starts vote-a-rama on their Beautiful-for-Billionaires Betrayal Bill, they still don't have complete bill text. Yup, still NO BILL - they're still corralling members and negotiating with parliamentarians. What a mess.

Before the Senate votes on Trump’s Tax Scam, there will be a β€œvote-a-rama.” This is when senators can propose endless changes that their colleagues then need to vote on.

You probably have some creative ideas for amendments. Submit them now to help keep vote-a-rama going for as long as possible. πŸ‘‡

🚨 ICE disappeared a woman on Wednesday night. She was grabbed by men in plainclothes and taken to an unidentified location.

ICE is refusing to say where she is being held. It’s 72 hours later and not even a dedicated team of lawyers can find her.

This is WRONG. We can’t let this be the new norm.

BREAKING: I will object to Republicans moving forward on their Big, Ugly Bill without reading it on the Senate floor

Republicans won’t tell America what’s in the bill

So Democrats are forcing it to be read start to finish on the floor

We will be here all night if that’s what it takes to read it
