Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

Republicans made a choice in their Big Beautiful Betrayal: Each millionaire’s tax break is funded by taking health insurance away from four Americans.

Trying to rebrand this bill won’t change that.

Last night, we introduced amendments to prevent tax breaks for people making over $100 million per year.

Then $500 million per year.

Then $1 billion per year.

Senate Republicans voted down every single one.

Donald Trump wants to dismantle the Dept. of Education, meaning families will lose access to financial aid and special education services, and rural schools will lose support. All because Republicans want to give tax breaks to billionaires.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.

So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

So Donald Trump claimed he would bring down prices on day one and turns out inflation is up. Had hoped our Republican colleagues would be focused on that but instead I am at a Republican-called commerce committee hearing on acquiring Greenland. 😳
P.S. It’s not for sale!

Our farmers need stability, not more uncertainty. The Trump Administration’s funding freeze is stalling critical conservation programs, water infrastructure, and crop support. This hurts rural Americans and threatens livelihoods.

Despite assurances, USDA freezes farmer funding for some programs, contracts
The news comes as a surprise to a community that voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump in the past three presidential elections

Dems should propose a law that immediately requires every fed agency to post on @bsky.app account, every outlay with a detailed description, $, and a link to existing gov sites with in depth details

Rather than trying to keep Elon out, pre-empt him so he cant miss characterize spending.
