NEW: SCOTUS shoots down a federal judge’s effort to protect eight men from being expelled—without due process—to South Sudan, where they face torture and death.

Dissenting, Sotomayor says the court’s “indefensible” decision makes it complicit in “lawlessness.” www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

This bill is a declaration of war on American families. It's the largest transfer of wealth in history from poor and middle-class Americans to the ultrawealthy, a wishlist made by the most awful people in the world.

Why not? Look at all of Trumps other appointments. He's not significantly worse than the rest of them.

If the GOP bill passes, a lot of folks who have grandma in a nursing home will need to take her back home. Do voters across the rural states this will impact the most understand that?

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T.

All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations.

There is no justification for this.

This is what pure evil looks like. No compassion, no empathy, no soul.
Q: "A 75 year old Cuban national died in ICE custody. He had lived in the U.S. for 60 years...Is there anything you can tell us about that?"

Border Czar Tom Homan: "People die in ICE custody. People die in county jails. People die in state prisons."

Let’s be clear MILLIONS of disabled people are going to suffer and die because of Medicaid cuts. Chronically ill and disabled folks rely HEAVILY on medical care to survive and they also have the highest rates of poverty in the country. Cutting Medicaid is a death sentence for many.
How fucking sick and evil do you have to be to zip tie people in wheelchairs.

Right now in Maryland, there's a mom whose son relies on lifesaving chemotherapy treatments. She told me that if he loses access to his health insurance, it would be a "death sentence."

If this bill passes, people will die.

Keep calling. Keep fighting. We must stop this bill.
If this bill passes, people will die
