The BBB gives $45 Billion for expansion of immigration detention (up from $3.9 billion this year) to create a system of mass detention larger than the federal prison system. What is cut instead? $11 billion for Pell grants; $23 billion for nursing home staff; $40 billion for food stamp matching fund

I’ll say it again - when *any* politician uses the ‘I haven’t read that story’ lie about something they knew they would get asked about, the interviewer has a duty to say ‘Okay, in that case I’m going to terminate this interview and you can come back when you’re better prepared.”
TAPPER: I have a hard time thinking that if a D president held a dinner for investors in his cryptocurrency, you wouldn't be outraged
MIKE JOHNSON: Look, I don't know anything about the dinner. I was a little busy this past week, so I'm not going to comment on something I haven't even heard about

I'm sorry I know there's a lot going on but how are we not screaming about Ron DeSantis stealing $10 million from Medicaid and the money ending up with pro-DeSantis superPACs, funneled through a charity run by his wife?

The $10M steered to Hope Florida by the state was Medicaid money, document shows
A draft agreement of a $67 million settlement between the DeSantis administration and a Medicaid contractor that had overbilled the state sheds new light on how $10 million of that amount was diverted...

On this tax day, remember that most of us paid more taxes than many billionaires and multinational corporations. It's total bullshit.
Tax the rich.
Oh and also if you can't be happy with 999 million dollars, get a flippin' therapist.
Extra tax the extra rich.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.
An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."
The other said, "Take him anyway."
So they did.

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you.
If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you.
If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you.
We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.
