House Minority Leader Jeffries has been speaking for nearly five hours, which buys us more time to put some last-minute pressure on Republicans.

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."

McGovern: "A family making less than $50,000 a year? They get less than $1 a day in tax cuts. You can't buy a damn cup of coffee with that. But those making a million dollars or more? They'll get more than $250 a day in tax breaks ... that's how rigged this bill is to benefit the wealthy."

Antonin Scalia - On American Exceptionalism
YouTube video by AmericanRhetoric.com Antonin Scalia - On American Exceptionalism

Justice Scalia on what makes American government exceptional: Our Constitution separates powers to "prevent the centralization of power in one person, or one party." In other countries, where power is centralized in one person, "the game is over" for rights.

Several guests who attended Trump's crypto dinner last night said they attended with the explicit intent of influencing him and U.S. financial regulations.

Trump is selling access to our government to the highest bidder while lining his own pockets.

It's all out in the open.

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

About 90% of Migrants Deported to El Salvador Had No US Criminal Record Trump administration officials have described the men deported to El Salvador prisons last month as โ€œthe worst of the worst,โ€ suggesting they were gang members involved in murder, rape and kidnapping.

90 percent. They sent innocent people to a gulag so Trump could look like a tough guy. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The Griffin List A list of 60,273 North Carolina voters โ€“ these are registered voters who showed ID to early vote in the November 2024 election โ€“ whose votes Jefferson Griffin wants to not be counted. ...

If you voted for Allison Riggs in the 2024 NC election check here to see if your ballot is being challenged. If so, then you have 15 business days from whenever they mail the notices to cure your ballot, but best to check now & cure yours as soon as possible, even if this ruling might get overturned

When I tell students about the realities of pre-New Deal industrial life โ€” where it was so commonplace for workers to die on the job that a Pittsburgh newspaper once celebrated that โ€œonlyโ€ 127 had died the previous month โ€” they canโ€™t believe it.

Thatโ€™s the world Trump wants us to return to

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling.

The language. It was not published to educate. But it was there. And more people needed to take it seriously and to at least understand it was an entire rewriting of our government structure.

I agree. My point was that even for people who took
It seriously and sought out the summaries and the indexes to find specific issues, who read the introduction, the Project 2025 manifesto took patience and persistence to understand specifics and weed through

Perhaps the results in Wisconsin will show that Elon funding a primary is not necessarily a hindrance. Perhaps these representatives can run on their record and renewed commitment to the rule of law. Perhaps taking a solid stand against musk and his tactics will prove advantageous
