Overnight in the ER in Denver with palpitations, erratic BP/pulse, I think I saw a doc once in 18hrs--$50k+

All covered, thankfully, but that was the bill.

Good! He’s going to force the Supreme Court to eventually explain itself.

Jeffries: "You got some people in the town who go to church and pray on Sunday, and then they come to Congress and prey on the American people. I'm not down with that kind of faith. That's not the faith that comes out of the Gospel."

The majority of Japanese-Americans interned during WWII were American citizens.

Our government ignored their civil rights.

No lies detected from HRC!

Call your members of Congress RIGHT NOW, before they vote again on this immoral reconciliation bill: (877) 853-4144

Representative Hakeem Jeffries of New York has now passed the four-hour mark in his floor speech. Keep going, we’re with you!

If someone doesn’t ask Karoline Leavitt why she posted on social media that this bill includes no taxes on Social Security when she knows it is a lie and she intentionally lied to the American people, everyone in the room should lose their jobs.

More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

If there was ever a time to call your Senator, this is it.

Voting has begun on the GOP plan to cut off health care for working-class Americans and slash taxes for the wealthiest.

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T.

All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations.

There is no justification for this.

Chris Murphy: "This is the most deeply immoral piece of legislation I have ever voted on in my entire time in Congress."

Hakeem Jeffries is so skilled at being a disappointment. The worst opposition leader possible. I am so sick of rank careerism and incompetence.

Why Are Federal Agents Wearing Masks? It’s a Threat to American Democracy Masked Federal Agents Are Undermining Trust—and Democracy

Wyden Statement on New CBO Numbers Showing More than $930 Billion in Medicaid Cuts In New Senate Draft | The United States Senate Committee on Finance Wyden Statement on New CBO Numbers Showing More than $930 Billion in Medicaid Cuts In New Senate Draft

NEW: Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill" will cut Medicaid by $930 billion - and that's before cuts to Medicare and the Affordable Care Act.

We are dismantling American higher education & scientific research & health care & all the other things to fund concentration camps

What am I worried about?
-Safety of 30k US troops in the Middle East
-cybersecurity (since CISA was recently gutted) & homeland security (as HLS focused on immigration)
-Economic strength (oil prices and tariffs)
-Allied assistance (we’ll need that now)
-Domestic intell (leadership at FBI/DNI)

Analysis: US strikes mark a stunning demonstration of military might and presidential power

I was thinking that maybe, more than 20 years after the start of the Iraq war, media coverage would be more skeptical and less sycophantic

No such luck

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

If you think it can’t happen here, remember that it already did. In 1942 soldiers came with rifles to our home and ordered us out. They put us in internment camps. Most of us were citizens.

BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.

We’ll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.

It’s time

We don’t know what the real name of the Director of White House Personnel is, we don’t know what country he came from, he refuses to turn in background check forms, and nobody will ask the president or press secretary about it.

ICE agents concealing their faces: Can they really do that? It's not illegal, but paired with high-visibility raids, police masking sows fear and conflict.

ICE agents concealing their faces: Can they really do that?

Warren, Markey call for probe into ‘escalating aggression’ by federal agents in immigration raids - The Boston Globe The Massachusetts senators called for the investigation in a letter sent Wednesday to the US Department of Homeland Security.

ICE's increasingly aggressive tactics are unacceptable and dangerous. They do not make us any safer.

I’m calling for an independent investigation right now — this abuse of power must end.

“ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a ‘secret police,’ with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF.” @garrettgraff.bsky.social

A Rhode Island Judge Tells Trump "No" And it's a very important "no"

Today’s decision out of Rhode Island isn’t getting a lot of attention, but it’s very important. Trump tried to withhold fed’l funds from states that won’t help with his immigration policy & mass deportations. A Judge just told him he can’t do that. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
