Meiselas: One question I have is why do we even have a funding issue? If Trump brought in $17 trillion, why is there even an issue with funding? If we brought in $17 trillion, shouldn’t Trump just be making it rain on everybody and there’s so much money to go—oh, wait a minute.

Judge Lamberth, a Reagan employee, slams the govt's "disrespect" for his orders. He says contempt proceedings would be warranted, but he doesn't order them because nobody asked for them.

The former Marine accused of killing four people in an attack on a Michigan church held a deep grudge against Mormons, his friends said.

Moldova’s ruling pro-Europe party secured a victory in Sunday’s parliamentary election, bolstering the country’s bid to join the European Union and break away from Russia’s orbit.

Trump is targeting his political enemies for criminal prosecution, using law lackeys to do his dirty deeds. @preetbharara.bsky.social joins me for a deep dive on the grand jury process a la Comey, and for a reflection on just how dark our times have become for justice. youtu.be/oK-7wcexCT8?...

There isn't any question this is Trump's Shutdown Because Republicans control all levers of government-the House, the Senate, the presidency and even the Supreme Court Now he's threatening to throw a temper tantrum at the expense of federal employees Showing just exactly how weak he is

#ThisIsTrumpsShutdown Call Congress 202-224-3121

Confused about the government shutdown? Here are simple facts: Democrats want to protect healthcare and lower costs. Republicans are blocking them. That's what's at stake. #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

Trump and the Republicans are so determined to take away our health care that they'll shut the government down to do it. #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

🚨This isn’t gridlock. This isn’t compromise failing. This is Trump and Republicans choosing to hurt Americans. #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

A $7,000 health care bill could soon soar to $24,000. Notices are coming. Democrats are fighting to stop this disaster. Republicans are fighting to guarantee your costs explode. Let’s be clear: Republicans OWN this crisis. #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

🚨🚨🚨When you control both chambers of the Legislative branch; and, both the House and Senate vote in accordance to the demands of the president, who owns the shutdown? #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

#ThisIsTrumpsShutdown He and Republicans want their Big Ugly Bill (providing billionaire tax breaks) while Democrats favor protecting Americans against health care premium increases All on him and Republicans if it shuts down. They control government!

#ThisIsTrumpsShutdown according to Trump himself. Listen for yourself.

Trump & the Senate Republicans would rather shut down the government than ensure millions of Americans can keep their healthcare. How messed up is that! #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

Felon is threatening to impose mass layoffs if his GOP does not fund the government! The shutdown & widespread layoffs are a DECISION by felon/GOP to hurt Americans! That’s on top of felon/GOP’s Big Ugly Bill that ripped away Americans’ healthcare, economic pain, & skyrocketing costs from tariffs!

🧵Coal in the US was mostly dying because of cheap natural gas beginning in the 2000s. Then cheap renewables began to clobber it in the 2010s. It is a filthy power source and horrible emitter of greenhouse gases. There is zero economic justification for this & it will amount to corporate welfare.

Trump is gutting the cancer research that has increased survival rates from half to two-thirds. Slashing research by hundreds of millions. Ten times the number of political appointees at NCI. Every $326 in cancer research saves a life. How many of us, our families, our friends will die?

To be clear, Republicans actually do need Democrats to help pass the CR and keep the government open. It takes a 60-vote threshold, and they only have 53 without Democrats. Save healthcare: STAND STRONG, DEMOCRATS!

Today I did something incredibly empowering, SUPER fun...thrilling actually. It was 100% free & made me feel like a hero. I did it right from my computer & maintained total privacy. You can do it, too! I called voters & convinced 11 people who knew nothing or were confused to vote YES ON PROP 50.

Far-right billionaires spent upwards of ONE BILLION last year to get young voters for Trump. They think they locked Gen Z down for good. But we’re already registering thousands of young voters to prove them wrong and win big next November. Can you chip in? ⬇️ secure.actblue.com/donate/votho...

They call it “civics.” We call it propaganda. The America 250 coalition is backed by dark money, designed to silence teachers, defund schools & indoctrinate kids. If they win, we all lose. Read, share, and help fight back against this assault. www.digitaldrumbeat.com/p/america-25...

The Maryland father who was wrongly deported and then brought back to the U.S. was moved to the Moshannon Valley Processing Center in Philipsburg.

Damn, to think that we could’ve had this brilliant woman as our President instead of the burnt circus peanut. Audience member, “you would’ve walked up those stairs. You would’ve walked up that escalator, girl.” Kamala, “ In my HEELS!” You have to love her sense of humor. 💥🔥💥

Not a hard choice on which side to support: protect healthcare and working people or side with mass permanent layoffs.

Trump has issued a new national security directive: NSPM-7 👺 The following are now considered by the US government to be indicators of extremist violence. 😨 #TrumpTerrorism

Confirming what those who have worked for Ellison have known for decades: imperious asshole.

Congress must declare war. We need bipartisan strength here to oppose any war with Venezuela.

If they want to keep ACA subsidies all they have to do is tweak 2 words in the legislation, rename it Trumpcare, plaster the SOB's face all over the GD website, let him brag about it on Fox and voila...problem solved.

Why is that women know everything about men and men know nothing about women?

Clearly there’s something wrong with this little guy hanging out at my front door all day. 911 says call Fish & Game, Fish & Game says call 911 or a rehabber.They won’t get involved unless it bites you. Rehabbers don’t answer. Meanwhile I feel bad for the little guy, & worry about my own pets.

🚨Trump Sends Troops to Portland Trump just ordered the military into Portland and ICE detention centers nationwide. He even authorized “full force.” This isn’t law and order, it’s authoritarian rule. Democracy is on the line.

The Portland #NoKings rally needs to be the biggest ever. Sign up here: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=d... Please pass it on! Time to show up.

Democrats want the subsidies for the ACA extended in the CR, a White House official says Trump blames Democrats “unserious and ridiculous” demands. Goes on to say Trump ‘read all the shit they’re asking for’ and ‘on second thought go fuck yourself.’ #TrumpsGovernmentShitdown

If Jack Ciattarelli is shameless enough to weaponize illegally leaked military records against distinguished Navy vet Mikie Sherrill, what do you think he’ll do with YOUR private data as governor? Abuse of power is his playbook. Mikie Sherrill fights for New Jerseyans, not against them. #VoteNJ

A single @votersoftomorrow.org college chapter registered 450 voters last week, but hey, congrats to TurningPoint for their impressive 3 new voters!

The video is... something else. This ICE agent has zero training. Stuffing the gun in his belt, so of course it falls out? What restraining hold was he even trying to do? Why did he point the gun at the crowd? Everyone who played a role in putting this guy on the street needs to be fired.

US attorney Michele Beckwith was fired after telling Border Patrol chief Bovino not to stop people indiscriminately & emailing him that “compliance with court orders & the Constitution” was required. Shortly thereafter her work cell phone & computer stopped working. www.latimes.com/california/s...
