More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Vance: "There's a lot of emergency healthcare at hospitals provided to illegal aliens. That was funded by the federal govt. We turned off that funding because of course we want citizens to benefit from those hospital services, not to be taxed & then have those hospital services go to illegal aliens"

Hell YES! Y’all are flooding the Capitol Switchboard so hard it’s overwhelmed—this is people power in action! 💥

Here’s what to do next: Call your reps’ district offices instead. It’s easy—just Google their name + “district office number.”

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.

One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.

They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

South Dakota: South Dakota Medicaid
Tennessee: TennCare
Texas: Texas Medicaid
Utah: Utah Medicaid
Vermont: Vermont Medicaid
Virginia: Medicaid

Trump's budget cuts Medicaid by over $1 TRILLION.

Not sure which health care programs will be impacted? Here’s what Medicaid is known as in your state 🧵

5/ The bill cuts the help middle income Americans get to buy health care on the Affordable Care Act exchange.

A 60 year old couple making $85,000 (not a king's ransom) would see a $26,000 increase in health care premiums. Yes, that's right - $26,000.

Ok, so Republicans just introduced a 900 page bill none of them have read. But my team is going through it line by line and on this 🧵you can see the hidden provisions we found. Will update all day.

50 Reasons Why Everyone Should Want More Walkable Streets From making you live longer to making cities more resilient: If you want a reason to make your city more walkable, it's in here.

“Someone with a 1-hr car commute needs to earn 40% more to be as happy as someone with a short walk to work. On the other hand, if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.” #CityMakingMath

50 reasons to want more walkable cities.

Clay Bennett, Chattanooga Times Free Press

trump remade the Republican party in his own image over the course of like six months

so yeah, i do think political parties can pivot to do things that work

I am looking for congressional leaders to come out quickly and forcefully against this. We need unequivocal opposition. We need theatric demonstrations of defiance. We need to see leadership. Trump will steamroll us all if we display weakness. Where are our leaders?

We should probably do something about this.

Our military deserves better than this empty charade. Yikes. The tank squeaking over silence is incredible.
