Nehls on how House GOP will make case for affordability back home: Nehls: What are you talking about? I'm gonna get me lobster tails. Some nice rib eyes. Reporter: Do you think the 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck can afford that? Nehls: Maybe not. Maybe they don't work as hard as me.

100 billionaire families spent a record-breaking $2.6 billion on the 2024 elections. And that's just the money we can track. Billions more flowed in the dark. Now the Supreme Court says billionaires can spend UNLIMITED funds in coordination with candidates. This is a disaster.

Ossoff: "We've see in just the last six months more than 300,000 Georgians lose their health insurance altogether. It's a disaster for health in Georgia. And Mike Collins, just like he voted for war and for tariffs, he voted for these healthcare cuts."

It legit breaks my heart that the United States is no longer a welcoming country. Even with the World Cup, we’re watching other countries show the kind of warmth and humanity we used to claim as our own.

SNYDER: At this point Ukraine’s position is stronger than Russia’s. And I think, in a strange way, Trump has been bad for Putin because he's de facto helped Russians. But he’s helped them extend a war they can’t win, so by helping them, I think he’s made damage for them greater.

Iran denied they requested talks with the US and said they will not be meeting with Witkoff and Kushner today despite Trump’s statements and stenographer reports in the media.

Dr Oz on ACA "fraud" -- "Of the people who signed up, 40% never use the insurance. Let me ask you, John, you have health insurance -- do you use it once a year? In Obamacare right now 40% of the people ostensibly signed up never use the insurance ... we have a lot of fake people on the policies"

Happy Immigrant Heritage Month! This month, and every month, we celebrate the generations of immigrants – including the more than 270,000 immigrants who call CA-28 home – who power our economy, create jobs, open small businesses, enrich our culture, and make America stronger every day.

ZELENSKYY: Russia refuses to end the war, if Putin wants to sacrifice another million of his soldiers to keep smashing against this wall, then a million Russians, who not yet been mobilized into Russian army and are arguing in gas lines, should think about what awaits them next.

If a program saves lives, and if severe cuts to it abruptly withdraw lifesaving programs and services, then of course those cuts can be said to have killed people. @ldobsonhughes.bsky.social on the death toll of gutting USAID:

What this means is that the jury verdict that determined that Donald Trump had sexually abused my friend E. Jean Carroll by penetrating her vagina with his fingers, and therefore had defamed her by denying that he had done so, will stand as a final and conclusive judgment.

#BREAKING: #SCOTUS *denies* certiorari in one of the two E. Jean Carroll cases ("Carroll II," to the folks who follow closely). That presumably clears the way for Carroll to collect the $5 million judgment (the $83.3 million judgment in Carroll I remains under appeal):

Jared Kushner wants Albania's protected wetlands. The government obliged. Protesters said no. 29 days later, they're still saying no — with flamingo cutouts and flags, in the streets, every single night. Europe is watching. Is anyone else?

OMFG. I cannot begin to describe my gasp at how Roberts & co decided to go all in on LOST CAUSE theory & insist that the Reconstruction Congress did Confederate sympathizer President Andrew Johnson wrong by attempting to keep him from destroying Reconstruction www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

This one is especially pathetic

The Roberts court continues to reshape the American Republic into a governing system dominated by an Imperial Presidency.

Murray: The Supreme Court has never been more unpopular. The public has kind of had it with this Court. And that’s kind of the Court’s fault. The Chief Justice is going on like, “People are just mad about our decisions, but our decisions aren’t political.” But they look political…
