STEPHANOPOULOS: The Democratic proposal is designed to prevent millions of Americans from losing their health insurance, losing Medicaid coverage, or paying higher healthcare premiums. Why are you against that?

MIKE JOHNSON: That's an absurd statement

STEPHANOPOULOS: It's a factual statement

What a low f*cking bar

Yes, SO important. Also works for parent visits.

This bill is an act of war by the billionaires and their white nationalist allies against the people of the United States.

It will take health care from millions of people to fund tax cut for billionaires, secret police to arrest the President’s critics, and concentration camps.

It’s fascism.

Mike Johnson just said if you are for reducing the deficit, this bill is for you.

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.

They just lie.

Southwest Nebraska hospital announces plans to close, blames uncertainty over funding

While Republicans celebrate the passage of the largest Medicaid cut in history, the Curtis Medical Center in Nebraska announced it will shut down as a result of these horrific cuts — the first of many hospitals to close.

This is a dark day for rural America and for our country.

‼️FUCK ICE‼️

This is so cool! Great job!

Dems are speaking more forcefully against Mamdani than literally anything that’s been going on the five months in this administration. It’s really disappointing tbh.

Right?!? My inner first thought

Me too! I also wish I had an invite to this birthday party. I love mustard

This is incredible.

The logic is pretty obvious here. Presidents can’t declare war so anything the president does without Congress can’t be a war. It’s not an assessment of what’s happening; it’s an excuse.

I am begging people not to look to the NYT for coverage of what's happening. The BBC, Le Monde, Ajazeera and others will have more truthful coverage.

it’s even more demoralizing when the history you’re repeating is history you were around for the first time

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.

Illinois has enshrined protections to meet this very moment.

In a time of increasing overreach and hateful rhetoric, it's more important than ever to reaffirm our commitment to the rights and dignity of the LGBTQ+ community.

You have a home here always.

Photo of my hand holding a small white object wrapped in plastic that reads Skylark with very large urinals in the background.

Photo of a plaque on a wall that reads: oldest known urinals in Chicago, Trenton fire clay and porcelain company 1910, piss on history!

Shout out to the Skylark for coming up with a gimmick souvenir that actually separated me from my money - doesn't happen often!

“If not gestapo, why gestapo shaped?”

Boy, Pam Bondi is real fucking quiet about political assassinations after being real quick to make statements about burning Teslas.

It isn’t lost on me that the suspect in the assassination of one of the most prominent women in Minnesota politics had a target list with abortion providers and advocates. Misogyny is deadly. My heart is with the victims, their families, and everyone affected.

If protesting didn’t work, they wouldn’t try so hard to stop it.

Well past time for big city mayors to call for the arrest of anyone who claims to be law enforcement but wears a mask and/or won’t identify themselves

For years, commentators have talked about how Trump reshaped the Republican Party in the populist mold. Indeed, Trumpism has seen Republicans abandon many of their publicly held commitments. The GOP says it champions fiscal discipline while growing the debt at every opportunity. It talks about individual merit while endorsing discrimination against groups based on gender, race, national origin, and sexual orientation. It blathers about free speech while using state power to engage in the most sweeping national-censorship campaign since the Red Scare. Republicans warn us about the “weaponization” of the legal system while seeking to prosecute critics for political crimes and deporting apparently innocent people to Gulags without a shred of due process. The GOP venerates Christianity while engaging in the kind of performative cruelty early Christians associated with paganism. It preaches family values while destroying families it refuses to recognize as such. Yet the one bridge that connects Ronald Reagan to George W. Bush to Donald Trump is slashing public services while showering tax cuts on the rich. This is the Republican Party’s most sacred, fundamental value, the one it almost never betrays. Whatever else Trump and Musk may fight about, they are faithful to that.

My family loved this when I read it to them

I think the NY Post sort of is
