“Congress” didn’t pass this murder budget. Republicans did it. Republicans did it without a single Democratic vote in the House, without a single Democratic vote in the Senate. Be precise and give, uh, credit where credit is due

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Expect "election integrity" reform ahead of the 2026 elections and ramping up of manufactured "threats" by Trump and Republicans. If you think they won't pull off "martial law" as a way of delaying and punting the election, well, you aren't paying attention, friends.

It appears that the United States is going to celebrate its Semiquincentennial Anniversary by burning itself to the ground and then salting the earth. Glory!

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.

He proposes releasing some ICE prisoners to labor on farms where the employers will “own them” and be responsible for them. Historians have spent decades meticulously proving the straight line between slavery and modern capitalism’s concept of the laborer—or we could just let them say it.

What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow? Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy? Our new concentration camps? Our dying economy? Our ditching due process? Our corruption? Our broken legislature? Our corrupt SCOTUS? Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly

As predicted, the House Republicans folded like napkins and decided to kill fellow Americans to give tax cuts to the richest people on Earth. The damage Trump has done in 6 months is going to be generational. We destroyed ourselves.

Republicans just voted to kill Americans to give tax cuts to billionaires. Hang it around their necks forever. Remember in 2026, if we still have free and fair elections.

WHAT KIND OF FUCKING COWARDS ARE HOLDING A VOTE IN THE DEAD OF NIGHT TO TAKE AWAY MEDICAID FROM MILLIONS OF PEOPLE??? HOUSE REPUBLICANS. MAY YOU ALL ROT IN HELL.

Abrego is the *only* prisoner ever released from CECOT, so this is the sole account we have of the horrifying conditions in the prison in El Salvador where Trump has sent over 260 people from the US.

CAN’T MAKE THIS SHIT UP: Mike Johnson admits his entire job isn’t to serve Americans, but to serve Trump. He literally told Congress to ditch their own beliefs & bow to Donald. They’re not hiding it anymore. Full cult mode.

Shame on Congress. 💔

Lisa Murkowski was the deciding vote for a bill she knew was bad, abdicated her responsibility for fixing it, hoping the House would alter it.... only for the House to pass the bill she crafted without any changes.

Just asking questions...

There it is — nearly every single House Republican caved and voted to advance Donald Trump's cult agenda. They are getting ready to kick 17 million Americans off their health care so the rich can get a tax break. Horrifying.

You can stop saying, “MAGA Republicans.” It’s redundant.

Crockett: How is it that you can explain that we still are running up the credit card and we have nothing to show for it except for the fact that we won't have food on the tables and we won’t have health care.

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."

Trump threatens to arrest Mamdani and then adds, "a lot of people are saying he's here illegally"

The depth of cynicism required to pass this grotesque bill—a bill that spits in the face of nearly every voter except for the richest among us—should be enough to convince all of us to get these kowtowing Republicans out of office.

I cannot believe how unqualified he is for this job.

This whole story is insane

Another horrific story about the Trump administration killing a ton of people—including many children—for absolutely no reason. The food that would save these people's lives is sitting in a warehouse in Rhode Island. The government wouldn't let it be shipped. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

So let me get this straight… Under Hegseth’s leadership, the Army is rolling out a policy that could kick out Black men for razor bumps—a medical condition that disproportionately affects us. Meanwhile, troops who refused the COVID vaccine? They got waivers. Sympathy. Career protection. 🧵

Everything is a “redistribution of wealth” — the only question is which direction it’s heading in. Stop letting them convince you the only valid direction is from the bottom to the top. They’ve been selling that snake oil for decades.

Gotta give some props to Josh Hawley. Saying you’re doing everything you can to stop Medicaid cuts in the same statement in which you announce you’ll vote for Medicaid cuts is a new level of ghoulish shamelessness.

I just left the Senate floor after speaking out against the Big Ugly Bill. It breaks my heart that this is what we’ve come to as a Senate — and as a country.

By the numbers, Clarence Thomas has been treated to: • At least 38 destination vacations; • 26 private jet flights; • 12 VIP passes to pro & college sporting events; • 2 stays at luxury resorts; • 1 standing invite to an uber-exclusive golf club (Published 2023)

Keep calling, writing, and speaking out. Republicans are in the middle of trying to pass Trump's big bill, but it's not a done deal. They know it's a bad bill, and we need to convince just four of them to stand with working families. If we can do that, we can stop this thing.

Be sure to sit down with @nhannahjones.bsky.social’s latest piece in the NYT magazine. It’s a sobering reality that we should be shouting from the rooftops. (Gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/06/27/m...

Listen, @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social address this flagrant, insulting & incendiary racism. Where is the censure motion? Stop jumping at every smear against Mamdani. Focus on what a U.S. Senator is saying abt a key part of your base. www.al.com/politics/202...

The budget bill contains tens of billions to fund an army of 10,000 more ICE agents. This is a red alert moment for our democracy.

They are sending roving bands of masked thugs with the stated goal of kidnapping 20 million brown people to transport them to any country they can pay to take them. All this has been cleared by The Stolen Court. This is not deportation. This is ethnic cleansing.

I love how the right is trying to scare us by saying the United States is turning into one of those European countries with great mass transit and free healthcare.

MAGA Supreme Court (June 2026): “being in the US illegally is a crime against US, so it is constitutional (see 13A) to convict illegal immigrants of that crime in mass farm & construction labor courts, and hold them as slaves for up to 10 years of hard labor” <horrifying prediction emoji>

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

More Jan 6 prosecutors have been fired. Per a memo sent to one of them .. the termination is “effective immediately” (Reminder: Justice Dept prosecutors secured a 100% conviction rate at jury trials)

Warning signs flashing red - increasing dehumanizing rhetoric from a fascist authoritarian leader and his partisan allies

"I've known Jeffrey for 15 years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side" Trump is a child predator. Release the files.

The proper metaphor is practitioner-assisted involuntary euthanasia. The Supreme Court just unplugged the last power cord (nationwide injunctions). U.S. Constitution, 1788-2025. RIP, you had a good run.

No organization is better than ICE is.

Trump is running the government like one of his old casinos in Atlantic City.

Ron DeSantis on his new camp for migrants: "We've got showers. There you see the shower and bath facilities."

Today, it became abundantly clear that the Trump administration, their militarized thugs, Congressional Republicans, and conservatives on the Supreme Court are governing, better yet ruling, like they’ll hold power forever. Unless we fight back, they just might succeed. @americanopposition.org

It’s every parent’s nightmare, isn’t it? you check your child’s bulletproof backpack and find a picture book about gay penguins

Trump: "If you look at the end of the Civil War -- the 1800s, it was a very turbulent time. If you take the end day -- was it 1869? Or whatever."
