Bill Owen wanted to do the news.

Facts are no longer acceptable.

Trump will do to 60 minutes what he has done to everything else he touches.

Chaos and destruction with zero integrity

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more.

Taking back our power starts now.

"A judge ordered an urgent release of internal emails and documents from DOGE and the Office of Management and Budget.

“The authority exercised and the dramatic cuts it has made with no congressional input appear to be unprecedented,” wrote the judge."

The Republican bill is incredibly unpopular. It would hurt millions & give tax cuts to billionaires.
Make the politics SO toxic that Republicans have to rework the budget framework completely. Protest! Resist! Join together to fight back! http://dlvr.it/TJPLnn

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.
@aoc.bsky.social
Please explain what just happened. Is there no way to stop this w the reconciliation to be used by GOP to get around the filibuster? Are we sunk?

Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to have Pete Buttigieg's salary reduced to $1 in November 2023. Does she think Sean Duffy should keep his job if planes can't manage to stay in the sky?

I'm genuinely sorry for your personal loss.

But not for our nation's loss. Your brother was a toxic, lying influence that instrumentally contributed to the current environment of hate, division, and disinformation.

We are all better without him. Bye, girl!

The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.
We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Tom Homan can’t find enough illegal immigrants to deport because they fabricated the ‘crisis,’ so now he’s just gonna spend all his time attacking AOC.

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
