AOC: We heard that we should take your word that Medicaid will be protected — that we should trust you that no one is going to be affected by this. But as a woman, the word was given that my rights would not be taken away by the Supreme Court — and that wasn’t true.

On the HHS Leadership call today: 1 employee from CMS (Center for Medicare/Medicaid Service) and 2 employees from SSA (Social Security Administration) have died by suicide after their firing.

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Karine Jean-Pierre gives her final White House press briefing.

Please meet the two faces of Lindi Li—a donor and fundraiser for Kamala Harris.

Never to be trusted or listened to again, and I’ll leave it at that.

Michigan church worship leader & CPAC performer, Zachary Radcliff, who was arrested in October for sexually abusing children in his church, has been charged with 22 new child sex crimes.

Radcliff now faces 33 child sex crime charges.

BREAKING NEWS:

Nearly 100 former national security officials have written a letter to the Senate saying they are “alarmed” at prospect of Gabbard leading intel community.

Her appointment must be rejected.

People not elected to government should not have the power to reshape the government, especially people whose obscene wealth depends on the government functioning a certain way.

This is not a hot take.

It's just plain common sense.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who has paid into Social Security their entire adult life and is determined to make sure Republicans keep their filthy fucking hands off of our benefits.

Clyburn: I am absolutely okay with it. I don't know how many people urged him to do so, but I did.
