Any democrat that doesn’t use this as an opportunity to eliminate ICE or get concessions from DHS on these behaviors is out of step with reality.

Eliminating ICE is not anti-law enforcement but instead it’s opposing the militarization and weaponization of law enforcement.

It’s responsible for the government to cut legally allocated funds to organizations/municipalities who entered contracts for projects and now have to breach them risking lawsuits on top of the funds clawed back? Sounds good for business and definitely people I’d trust.

Straight cinema right there

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

What your president and his team are prioritizing.

It’s unconscionable, unprecedented and illegal to let SNAP payments lapse this November • Michigan Advance News that the Trump administration intends to let Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) payments lapse this November is deeply concerning as it will cause significant harm to the roughly 42...

In this commentary from Monique Stanton with the Michigan League for Public Policy, she says the plan to let SNAP funding lapse is not only “unconscionable and unprecedented…it’s illegal.”

Taking photos and video of law enforcement officers performing their duties in public is our constitutional right.

This includes police, FBI, National Guard troops, ICE agents, and other government officials.

Congratulations!

More than that, it risks advancements to vaccinations for certain types of cancers, HIV/AIDS, and even more.

How messed up do you have to be to say that stripping health coverage from up to 16 million people, removing food from kids, and raising taxes on some low-income people is “immaterial”?

Something that's overrated but most people would probably disagree with you on?

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands.

Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

Best image of the day:

As seen at the Ferndale, MI #NoKings protest today:

Especially if you're on the fence about it, protest today. Fascism is isolating and lonely. Its very goal is to make you feel like you're the only person unwilling to accept a cult of personality. On days like today you fully realize there are more of us than there are them. You will feel better.

Breaking News Pentagon sending hundreds of Marines to Los Angeles to backstop National Guard as Trump escalates feud with Gov. Gavin Newsom noW

I feel like maybe the framing of Trump sending the military to put down protests as a "feud" between Trump and Newsom is a little weird?

Yes! I fully agree that it minimizes all significance of this unprecedented move by any president

We need multiple forms of protest, multiple avenues of resistance, many ways to be pushing against these horrors at once.

There are going to start to be more protests, and that’s good, but we need strikes, slowdowns, document leaks, boycotts. We need loud public voices and refusals to comply.

Job Corps has helped countless Michiganders find a career and build a better life. The Trump administration's decision to pause this program will hurt Michigan families and our economy.

As a longtime supporter of Job Corps, I'll keep fighting to protect it.

Expanding HUD’s “Moving to Work” Authority Would Harm People Struggling to Afford Housing and Pave Way for Deep Cuts | Center on Budget and Policy Priorities Proposals to expand the “Moving to Work” demonstration would allow the Trump Administration to radically alter two of the largest rental assistance programs in ways that would reduce their effectivene...

Expanding HUD’s “Moving to Work” authority would let agencies raise rents & cut off aid, putting seniors, people with disabilities, and families with kids at greater risk of losing housing. Voucher programs would face eroding funding due to block granting. www.cbpp.org/research/hou...

Baldwin to RFK Jr: "Is funding for Alzheimer's research centers DEI? Because you're holding up $65m for 14 of those centers in 9 states, including UW Madison. Is funding for cancer centers DEI? Because you're holding up $47m in cancer center support grants at 9 cancer centers in 8 states."

The GOP plan kicks 8.6 million off of Medicaid. Rural hospitals will suffer, kids will lose care & people will get sick, all to give billionaires tax breaks. Medicaid is a promise to take care of each other. Trump wants to break it. Families lose, billionaires win. I’m a Hell NO!

This budget bill is stealing healthcare, housing, and retirement from seniors and low-income folks to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

Please do not talk about debt or deficit with the GOP bill. Talk about killing healthcare and billionaire tax cuts.

CFPB employees can't own stocks in companies that the agency regulates. A DOGE employee was warned by ethics lawyers that he held nearly $700K in stock in such companies.

He then carried out mass firings at the agency – including those ethics lawyers.

The corruption couldn’t be any more blatant.

My mom was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma in 2013 and after going through a stem cell transplant, she was prescribed Revlimid. She wouldn't have been able to afford the drug if it weren't for a research study and then a patient assistance program. Luckily, 15 years later she is still with us!

@katieporteroc.bsky.social was doing good work in Congress investigating the HUGE price difference between oral and IV chemotherapy drugs. The prices charged for this are criminal and lead to thousands of unnecessary deaths each year. Limits life expectancy to those who are lucky or have $$$
