Interesting how ICE flights weren't impacted by the shutdown. Just commercial flights. Yet we had to end the shutdown for the airlines?
Sure, Jan.

I think people are missing the point with this Epstein thing.
The question is not did he have sex with underaged girls. He did.
The question is not did he have illegal financial transactions with Epstein. He did.
The question is not did he serve as an asset and agent of Putin. He did.

🚨 NEW: Planned Parenthood just scored a major win — a federal judge granted a temporary injunction allowing its clinics to KEEP receiving Medicaid funding for non-abortion care, despite GOP attempts to gut it in their sham tax law. The right came for healthcare. The courts hit back.

ICE is, by one estimate, on track to be $1 billion over budget.
If you are wondering how agencies are allowed to spend money they don’t have, the answer is simple: They are not.

The Senate parliamentarian has OK'd GOP language stripping Medicaid funding for reproductive health care clinics like Planned Parenthood in the "BBB." It pains me that this is being talked about as if it's about abortion b/c this is about NON-ABORTION care like life-saving pap smears and STD tests.

Trump’s budget bill is a disaster for public health.
It’s the biggest cut to health care in history.
12 million people will lose health insurance.
Hundreds of hospitals will close.
1 in 4 nursing homes will close.
Millions more families won’t have enough food.
