Bar complaints?

MTG is scared of the mafia Don now that she's leaving the family.

Marge suddenly realizes that MAGA is a violent cult.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.

After Republicans refused to extend ACA subsidies, 4 Michigan insurers are dropping out of the ACA marketplace altogether. That’s 200,000 Michiganders who just lost their plans.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

Filibuster fans should be primaried.

Today, after 50 days of waiting, Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva was finally sworn in to Congress.

She will be the final signature needed to force a vote on the release of the Epstein files and will join House Democrats in the fight to save healthcare.

👇🏼💯 Yes, one can draw two conclusions about the shutdown cave: its effect may not be as bad as feared AND it reflects the need to clean out congressional deadwood. My only note: also reject any Dem candidate who blathers on about "bipartisanship" because that fetish is part of what's gotten us here.

Same with coffee…curses

“We are up against decades of organized, strategic investment in power by the right; that means our response has to be just as organized, strategic, and long-term.”

With little public scrutiny, the Trump administration is handing out hundreds of billions of dollars in tax cuts to some of the country’s most profitable companies and wealthiest investors. The Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service, through a series of new notices and proposed regulations, are giving breaks to giant private equity firms, crypto companies, foreign real estate investors, insurance providers and a variety of multinational corporations.

Let a single person feed their family with food stamps when they don't "deserve" the benefit and Republicans will be filled with such rage that they'll take away those benefits from millions of others.

Meanwhile the administration is doing this:

Time for @chrismurphyct.bsky.social to replace @schumer.senate.gov

NEW: Jeffries is talking about a discharge petition in the House for the ACA subsidies.

California is here for the long haul.

While the Trump Administration makes this country unrecognizable, California remains a stable, reliable partner in the fight for a clean energy future.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Great thread by one of the smartest Congress-watchers out there ...

That said I am lifting up the Senators who I KNOW fought, like my own @vanhollen.senate.gov. We need to press those Senators to demand a different kind of leadership internally. There’s still a lot more work ahead and we need the leadership to be chastened.

Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.

Continual reminders that Kaine was a terrible VP pick. #primary

Great job, @schumer.senate.gov. You've changed the story from "GOP hurting millions of Americans to please unpopular, failing, delusional despot who's destroying his party" to "Dems are too weak and divided in the face of Trump's strength to take a stand and protect Americans"

Another pardoned January 6 attacker arrested and charged with other, new felonies (in this case, kidnapping and sexual assault).

And don’t miss the part where he got caught firing off a gun on Jan. 6. You may recall the argument that it couldn’t have been an insurrection because it wasn’t armed.

omg

God she is so awful. Either she really believes this crap she is shoveling, or she is following orders and is content to do so. I'm not sure which is worse.

BREAKING: Mark Wolf, appointed to the federal bench by Ronald Reagan, writes that he is resigning as a judge to have the freedom to speak out against the president's assault on the rule of law.

‘You Are All Terrorists’: Four Months in a Salvadoran Prison

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine.

We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison.

This is the Republican Political Party undermining the U.S. Military.

"A team of independent forensic analysts examined their testimony. The experts called it consistent and credible, saying most of the acts described met the United Nations’ definition of torture."

In our name, with our tax dollars.

Trump II is an indelible stain on our national honor.
