In case you were wondering, no, we’re not likely to get another Pope as progressive and decent as Francis. Ever.

What a treat to wake up this morning to notification of a new podcast episode: Strong Songs covering…songs of THE MUPPETS/Sesame Street. @kirkhamilton.com , you’ve made my day!

I was extremely relieved to see this post, as I’d been afraid that Kilmar Abrego Garcia had been killed. But he needs to be brought back to the U.S. & given his due process rights. Keep up the pressure! I’m glad the courts are confronting FOTUS about their flouting of the law & the Constitution.

Think Medicaid cuts won't impact your community, your neighbors, or your friends? Think again.

"The Defendants' act of sending Abrego Garcia to El Salvador was wholly illegal from the moment it happened, and Defendants have been on notice of the same. ... [The] suggestion that they need time to meaningfully review a four-page Order that reaffirms this basic principle blinks at reality."

Food banks across the country, already strained by rising demand, say they will have less food to distribute because of at least $1 billion in federal funding cuts and pauses by the Trump administration reut.rs/4kUZe5b

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

NEW: 21 Democratic attorneys general sue Trump after the Education Department fired around half of its workforce. The attorneys general argue the cuts will “incapacitate” the department while causing “immense” damage to the education system.

This is a massive win for the the American people, who deserve a government that serves them and not the whims of a couple petty billionaires. Oversight Committee Democrats fought hard for this outcome, and we're not stopping now. More wins to come.

YOUR CALLS ARE WORKING. Few Senators are under more pressure to bend the knee on this, and he’s NOT.
