-Trump-Musk bill targeting CBS, NPR, foreign aid inbound -Byrd rule challenges on MAGA murder budget -Job Corps targeted -Growing the crowd for #NoKings -Stand up this Pride Month Happy Monday, let's push back.

The GOP is excluding 4.5 million US citizen children from the child tax credit bc their parents don't have Social Security numbers. And they're lowering the cap on the refundable part so even more low-income families don't qualify. 17 million kids will go without. And they call that expanding it!

- millions of kids will be left out of the child tax credit bc their parents don't make enough money - Using recess to expose detention camps - GOP looks to overrule state gun safety laws - @redwineblueusa.bsky.social talks about the threats to medication abortion Happy Wednesday, let's fight back.

WTF just happened today? ⚡️ Day 1583: "The ultimate betrayal." whatthefuckjusthappenedtoday.com/2025/05/21/d...

After Trump insulted him to his face, Mike Lawler is now predictably caving on the bill to cut Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, and other vital services his #NY17 constituents rely on, all for a slight increase in the SALT deduction he swore he'd get reinstated fully. www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/...

While the House GOP debates how many people's health care to take away for billionaire tax cuts, Senate Republicans are preparing to gut the filibuster for fossil fuel industry profits Democrats need to respond accordingly. More in the List:

Also in today's List: - national call-in day to stop the MAGA murder budget - interactive map on how research cuts cost us jobs - Friday deadline to comment against politicizing civil service - training on recognizing trusted news sources

The Trump Regime is trying to throw an opposition politician in jail on a flimsy excuse. This is the stuff of tinpot dictatorships. Our members of Congress need to say so and demand it stop. So do we.

Scripts and language to demand your members of Congress not pretend this is business as usual tomorrow morning while LaMonica McIver is being threatened with imprisonment.

Call your senators TODAY, folks - rumor is backer are trying to get it back on the Senate floor before the reconciliation bill arrives. Let them know you won't stand for it!

Folks, it is all hands on deck now. The GOP is promising not to go home for recess until they pass the MAGA Murder Budget. Phonebank into key districts. Talk to your neighbors. Share your story. Do whatever you can. We have plenty of ways to help here:

- Right wingers get faster Medicaid cuts, guide to fight back - Dems must hold firm on Trump crypto corruption - Contacting Congress 101 - Violence against abortion clinics rising - Solidarity with Blue Bottle workers Happy Monday. This going to be a Week.

And in their drive to screw us as many ways as possible, the GOP is ALSO rolling back clean energy tax credits, which will raise our energy bills! The good news is there are a bunch of Republicans who at least publicly aren't wild about this idea, so we may have some room to push. Scripts/language:

It's not just the Medicaid cuts. We're also gonna see 4 million people lose health insurance as the GOP lets the ACA premium tax credits inspire - and a lot more people pay a lot more for it. Let's be sure hear from us on this... before folks start seeing their bills go up.

Chewing your nails about today's Supreme Court hearings? Yeah, us too. But we're gonna channel it into action: using this @resist.bot to push senators away from an anti-14th Amendment nominee, donating to immigrant legal assistance, and pushing state/local officials to defend the Constitution.

- birthright citizenship suits reach Supreme Court - reconciliation bill will raise health insurance premiums and energy bills - doing our part to protect civil rights - supporting @sbworkersunited.org in their push for a fair contract Happy Thursday!

Worth noting as the birthright citizenship suits reach the Supreme Court: Whitney Hermandorfer, one of Trump's first judicial nominees this term, authored a brief in favor of tearing up the 14th Amendment and senators are absolutely free to hold that against her.

NEW in @prospect.org Our @timi-iwayemi.bsky.social and Alex Moss detail Trump appointees' plans to hijack the patent system and defang the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, which serves as a critical safeguard against dubious, low-quality patents. prospect.org/politics/202...

Everywhere you look there's some new disaster in the reconciliation bill - including $5 billion a year for corporate and religious schools, paid for with public funds. It's a great day to call (script via @5calls.org!) and an even better one to connect with the Alliance to Reclaim Our Schools.

They are trying to make it impossible to enforce contempt of court just as Trump officials are about to be hit with contempt of court rulings. Do not let Jim Jordan get away with this without a fight.

@activateamerica.bsky.social wants to help those who want to step up and lead in this dangerous moment. We can join them tomorrow evening for Organizer 101 training to improve our skills or learn the basics!

Multiple Trump officials are at immediate risk of being held in contempt of court. Jim Jordan and House Republicans want to make it impossible for judges to enforce those rulings. Take a minute to shout at your members of Congress about this! Scripts, language, Resistbot here

I’ll be watching Sec. Kennedy testify in front of HELP today. I have LOTS of questions, but most importantly: • Why were HS offices closed? • Why was PDG B-5 eliminated in the budget? • Can you guarantee HS programs will be able to access their $$ as appropriated by Congress?

And if you want to do more than call your congresscritter, join @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social to phonebank into a key district tonight!

Planned Parenthood, public schools and the rule of law are all under attack in reconciliation. Here's some ways to fight back:

Raise some hell, everyone. Especially if your House rep serves on Ways and Means, it's crucial to call TODAY.

This is the time to make noise. @fracposts.bsky.social has an email tool with sample language you can use for your members of Congress to tell them hell no on SNAP cuts, along with a digital toolkit and quotes from SNAP recipients we can put to use. All in today's list.

👩🏽‍💻 👨🏼‍💻 Join us on Zoom TOMORROW to SAVE MEDICAID.

As if slashing Medicaid and SNAP to pay for billionaire tax cuts and deportation camps wasn't enough, the GOP *also* wants to give Trump a free pass to defy the courts. Have punched up scripts, language and a Resistbot to urge your congresscritters to remove Section 70303 from reconciliation.

- GOP's proposed SNAP cuts are out - nonprofit killer bill is back - community defense is crucial - voting rights are under attack - corporate cowards are backing off from supporting Pride Be sure to throw some punches where you can this week, folks.

Feels like this should be pretty simple: Qatar probably isn't giving Trump a $400 million sky palace just to be nice. Congress needs to stop this open corruption - and investigate it. Scripts in today's List, plus this new @resist.bot.

Homeland Security followed up arresting the Mayor of Newark for no reason by threatening to arrest three members of Congress for trying to do their job and inspect a detention facility. It's out of control.
