MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

AI could erase half of all entry-level white-collar jobs and hike unemployment to 10-20% within the next one to five years, warns Dario Amodei, CEO of one of the leading companies developing artificial intelligence. He says a looming job apocalypse is facing industries like finance, tech and law.

Folks, the House advanced the disastrous reconciliation bill, with the destructive 10-year State Ban against regulations for AI intact! We now MUST mobilize our calls to the Senate! Call today! If you need a script the post below offers a fantastic alternative! We only have one chance! Lets go!

While many Americans were still asleep, Republicans in the House of Representatives passed Trump’s huge, horrible mega-bill. It might be the worst, most damaging piece of legislation I’ve seen in my nearly 60 years in politics.

Beyond being a Councilwoman, she is an adult mocking the appearance of a young person - a young person graduating 2nd in her class btw - and is demonstrating how to make snap judgments about people based on their appearance. Which every adult knows is immature and stupid. The absence of character….

The gerontocracy has consequences, episode one million and three.

At the center of the sweeping bill is trillions in tax cuts, which Republicans aim to partially offset through changes to safety net programs like Medicaid and SNAP.

MAGA is inflicting so many horrors on so many people that we're being forced to ration empathy. slate.com/news-and-pol... by @dahlialithwick.bsky.social on @slate.com

they're preparing for the fucking rapture which is why they care about israel!!!!

I know I sound ridiculous and extreme saying this, but this reconciliation bill deserves mass civil disobedience from every level of elected official in the country

The new version of the House reconciliation bill expands the medicaid and chip ban on coverage for gender affirming care to ALL AGES. This will decimated access to care for tens of thousands of trans people. amendments-rules.house.gov/amendments/R...

NEW: The Missouri GOP is trying to trick voters into banning abortion again, just months after voters protected it. As Democracy Docket contributor @susanrinkunas.com writes, it’s a reminder that conservatives don’t want voters to have a say on abortion.

Big Ugly Billionaire Tax Breaks

Do not open the gate. Definitely not without a valid warrant, signed by a judge-- and no searches are lawful unless signed not by an immigration judge, but by a federal or state court judge. And, something to consider (continued next skeet) : Ht @ravmike.bsky.social

Exactly! Listen up, Democratic leadership!

Call your rep!!! 14 million will lose health care. Food assistance taken away. All of this is targeting those who can least afford it in order to line the pockets of the millionaires and billionaires. #HandsOffMedicaid #HandsOffSnap #DontScrewAmericans

The extra-extreme members of the House Budget Committee voted "present" tonight so that the Medicaid-cuts-to-fund-tax-giveaways-for-the-rich bill could pass out of committee 17-16. Tomorrow, flood Capitol Hill switchboards to voice your opposition to this monstrosity. 202-224-3121.

Call your senators and tell them to vote against this crummy bill and industry. Find your reps here: reps.fyi

"[P]ro-crypto Democrats—that is, the ones who collected millions in crypto campaign contributions—have gotten a few token concessions, but nothing whatsoever that would stop Trump’s corruption spree, and this is likely enough to get it through." — @ryanlcooper.com @prospect.org

BREAKING: The House GOP just failed to pass their Big Ugly Bill out of the Budget Committee. They're fighting over how many Americans to rip health care and food away from. Keep up the pressure.

Two years ago, Georgia began allowing low-income adults to join Medicaid on the condition that they work or train for a job. But Georgia’s experience may actually offer reason for caution nationwide.

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

Focus on 2026, NOT 2028. sherrilyn.substack.com/p/part-2-how...

This should be bigger news: ICYMI - Project 2025’s puppet master Russell Vought just replaced Elon as head of DOGE. People still in denial & believe Trump knew nothing about Project 2025, need to explain why he just handed the keys to the whole damn thing to its architect. He is the plan. Wake up.

Yes, I know. People are being sent to foreign gulags without due process. RFK Jr. is killing our public health. Trump is driving the economy off a cliff. Don't let this fall under the radar: DOGE wants *your* personal info sucked into mass systems—data very tempting for an authoritarian to use.

They definitely are removing a link at a time. Or maybe like the tariff insanity, they snatched 10 feet of chain down to inches and then said gave us back a couple of feet? We never get everything back after they take away rights and privileges. Not ever.

BREAKING: Anti-abortion, anti-democracy politicians just directly attacked the will of MO voters and passed HJR 73–another abortion ban. The resolution will now be sent to the people for a vote with ballot language that never mentions that the resolution will reinstate an abortion ban. (1/2)

We’re expecting another vote later today on the crypto-friendly bill that would enable Trump’s corruption. Your Democratic senator needs to hear from you ASAP if they’re on this list: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

House Republicans’ tax bill would grant the Treasury Secretary the ability to accuse any nonprofit of being a “terrorist supporting organization” without basic due process. No president should have the power this bill provides to punish their political opponents.

The Hurt Syndicate has the chance to do a BRUTAL reenactment of Joe Pesci's end in Goodfellas next week and the thought of it is keeping me alive right now. Picture it. MJF in his little suit, walking in thinking he's gonna be made. Bam. Two in the back of the head. End scene. #AEWDynamite 🤼

Tony narcing out MJF to Shelton like that is cold. Never took him for a snitch. #AEWDynamite 🤼‍♂️

The image of Hangman Page signing a child while a massive video of him having a whisky while sitting in front of Swerve’s burning home plays in the background must have been incredibly wholesome to see live. Leaves is plants sir, leaves is plants. 🤼 #AewDynamite

Now THIS Thank you Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasia-Cortez WOMEN, raise your voices loud and clear Don't Defund Planned Parenthood #MomSky Please listen Call Your Congressional Representatives 202 224-3121 No cuts to Planned Parenthood

I love how he breaks this down. And keep yelling from the rooftops #DontDefundPublicSchools

Update: The TERRIBLE 10-Year Ban on State AI Regulations advanced House Committee. What does this mean? It means we BLAST the HELL out of their phones! Call your House Members AND Senators today! Called a few days ago? Call again! Tell them NO on 10-year State AI Regulation Ban! (Info in thread)

Russell Vought, acting director of Trump’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, has quietly killed plans to more tightly regulate the sale of Americans’ sensitive personal data.

-A 10-year ban on state AI regulations -A "nonprofit killer" clause that would stifle dissent -Selling off public lands to Big Oil It's not just healthcare/food assistance cuts for the poor and tax breaks for the rich in the GOP's "big, beautiful bill." It's much worse.

Wow-sa.

www.politico.com/live-updates... Understand what is at stake Someone you know depends on Medicaid Call Your Congressional Representatives 202 224-3121 No cuts to Medicaid

Yes. Expose the incompetence.
