This one is for Dana Bash (and for the great Jamie Raskin in a different way), because in the middle of a berserker rampage by the right, those of us on the liberal-to-left spectrum are supposed to stop it through seraphic politeness, according to the lost souls in the middle of the road.

There is ample evidence that our elections are not rife with issuesโฆyet. Simply put, the Save Act is the Trump administrationโs attempt to subvert fair elections in our country.

73% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to govt data. Donโt fall for Trumpโs lies about targeting the โworst of the worst.โ As ICE terrorizes cities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of Trump's major donors are private prison corporations.

NEW: ICE has finally released post-shutdown detention data. The latest data reveals that a full 40%(!) of people arrested in the interior and held in ICE detention have no criminal record; no criminal charges or prior convictions. That is up from just 4% when Trump took office.

All of these members have military experienceโand are rightfully alarmed that the Admin is directing people to commit violence against Americans. ย Those who serve our country swore an oath to the Constitution, *not* Trump. ย If pointing that out is "treason," what else is he willing to criminalize?

And if you've previously picked a side, you don't have to stay there. Whatever you may have thought Trump was, he's proven his unfit. Let's be pro-democracy now. We can go back to party politics when we get through this.

โAccording to a 2019 USDA report, every dollar in new SNAP benefits increases GDP by $1.50 in a weak economy.โ โSNAP benefits are one of the fastest, most effective forms of economic stimulus because they get money into the economy quickly during a recession.โ ~Center for Budget and Policy

Does anyone have a calculator that would tell people what their premiums would be without the subsidies? I have seen examples of the huge increases, but I think it would be very effective for people to be able to put in their plan to find out what their own cost would be.

Within the first 7 months, Trump has managed to add trillions to the deficit, eviscerate agencies like the Education Department, rattle the economy, shake our strongest alliances, build concentration camps for his deportation program, and strip popular social programs like Medicaid from millions.
