Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension Contact Congress today!

Happy New Year To Everyone, Including the UNHINGED LOSER "Tiny" Mike Johnson, who—despite his best but pitiful efforts—will fail miserably to stop us from extending ACA tax credits in January.

Now's the time to get loud about it:

Happy New Year! It’s been a big, chaotic, and amazing year and every day I am so grateful to represent NM-01 in Congress.

As we look forward to 2026, I want to say THANK YOU to each and every one of you. Our work is just beginning. We are so ready to step into the New Year! Let’s do this! 🎉

Mark Cuban Tells Us How He Can Fix America’s Shitty Health Care The entrepreneur wants to do what many in his position have tried and failed to accomplish.

Mark Cuban: Dems are “not offering any solutions and they’re certainly not saying ‘Break up the big insurance companies, break up the big hospital networks.’ At least if they said that, it would show that they understood what the hell was going on.” lnk.thebulwark.com/3L9cCFO

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice.

The result is demagoguery and corruption.

The malignant narcissist can’t stand America trying to have a peaceful Christmas without him.

Merry Christmas! Michelle and I hope you have a wonderful holiday filled with light and joy.

Remember: There's always strength in a union. Solidarity.

Really good

Rob Reiner, 1947–2025 One of the best and most versatile directors of his era.

Rob Reiner was one of the best and most versatile directors of his era. Or, really, ever. ICYMI @sonnybunch.bsky.social remembers him: lnk.thebulwark.com/45gAApd

His entire rant had to be fact-checked to see if there was any truth in anything he ranted about.

As usual, if his mouth is moving, he's lying.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

An old man with a cane in a chair is silhouetted against the fire. He is telling a Christmas ghost story to a group of adults and children while a giant ghostly knight leans on the mantlepiece, listening.

As a series of winter storms impact California, we're pre-deploying emergency response teams and equipment to 9 counties to protect communities from flooding, debris flows, and severe weather.

By preparing early, @caloes.bsky.social is helping keep Californians safe.

Highly-skilled immigrants with work authorization are being targeted on their job sites, followed home from work, and kidnapped and disappeared by Trump’s secret police.

This makes ALL OF US less safe and should alarm every single American.

Torture State USA It’s called “the box.” A tiny 2x2 enclosure where people are forced to spend hours exposed to the elements.

There are 400 Canadians including toddlers who have been kidnapped by ICE. Amnesty International is now reporting on the use of torture at the detention facilities. This is the march of American fascism.

Comer: "If we find that there's any type of effort to redact the names of victimizers -- people who were involved in terrible crimes against these women -- then I call tell my Oversight Committee will be the first to unredact and shine a light on those names."

Schiff: "I think we ought to bring Pam Bondi before the Senate Judiciary Committee demand answers as to why the DOJ has violated the law."

"Americans have responded: No. These are my neighbors. These are my friends. We go to church together. She carpools my kids to school. Our children play soccer together."
