More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act.

one thing that is important to emphasize at that this is just republican governance at work! this is what happens when you give republicans power in washington!
Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie.

One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears.

They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.

The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.

This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

ICEblock, which allows users to alert others to the geographical location of ICE officers, is the top social networking app in the App Store right now after Karoline Leavitt condemned it from the podium yesterday.

Most of the people blathering about “what Dems must do” are problematic. No surprise there.

Ossoff: "If we allow Affordable Care Act benefits to expire, as this bill would, more than a million Georgians will pay more for health insurance next year. A family of 4 in Clayton County making $65k a year - that's a $2,600 increase...the AJC reports 300k Georgians would lose insurance altogether"

Nearly half of all the rural hospitals left in Missouri are at risk of closure — the proposed Medicaid cuts will likely finish them off.

Closing these hospitals not only harms the people in these communities, but it will also hasten the death of these communities.

What s weird headline. Also wonderful. Using E. Coli to make Tylenol out of plastic? What
A degree in biochemistry is colloquially known as "how to manipulate E. coli for fun and profit."
Wow! Scientists engineered E. coli to convert plastic waste (PET) into pain medicine paracetamol (acetaminophen or Tylenol) in under 24 hours with up to 92% yield.

Just a reminder that while her ex nonstop soils himself in public with tasteless displays of wealth and look-at-me, thirsty nonsense, Mackenzie Scott has given away close to $20 billion to 1,600 charities, no strings attached and without any need for recognition.

MAGA gets all misty-eyed with nostalgia for the 1950s. And it’s not just the White Supremacy. They think of it as a time of great prosperity. But they don't realize that government programs like the GI Bill were driving much of that prosperity. You know, socialism.

Warnock: If I'm honest, there are days when I have to ask people of my faith tradition as a Christian, are we reading the same book? 

The book I know says I was hungry and you fed me. I was sick, I was in prison and you visited me, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….

Exactly this.

They want the Bad Things to stop happening.

But the time for that was back in November.
Most of the fucking responses to that are all "this isn't doing anything, this isn't blocking the bill, you're feckless."

Motherfuckers can't count and want every goddamned body to save them from their own fucking choices.

Hey, Dems are doing the exact thing people said they'd praise them for doing, denying unanimous consent.

Can't wait until, somehow, this still isn't good enough, because, again, as the minority, they can't stop bad things from happening.
BREAKING: I will object to Republicans moving forward on their Big, Ugly Bill without reading it on the Senate floor

Republicans won’t tell America what’s in the bill

So Democrats are forcing it to be read start to finish on the floor

We will be here all night if that’s what it takes to read it

1,500+ at our Townhall in Wichita, Kansas this morning.

Working people across the nation are pissed off about this rigged economy, and they’re showing up. Wichita’s Congressman refuses to host a Townhall, so we pulled up instead.
