It is not blood libel to state accurately who is being killed and by whom. If the IDF and its supporters do not want its reputation linked to the slaughter of more than 16,000 babies and children, I would suggest they stop killing babies and children.

🚨 The US House of Reps have now PASSED their budget bill that includes a BAN on Gender Affirming Care for Medicaid for ALL AGES.
This bill now goes to the Senate where it’s likely to pass.

After locking their products up in cases and eliminating DEI programs to appease the Trump administration, Target has been steadily losing customers and sales. The CEO says he’s going to stop the decline by using “technology and AI” to become “more agile.”
Target is in big trouble.

The retailer flipped its full-year outlook from positive to negative territory, citing backlash to its DEI rollbacks on top of a “highly challenging environment.”

A VERY important point -- this bill is not final, not at all. It will now go to the Senate. If the Senate makes changes to the bill (they likely will), it will go back to the House for another vote.
The House passed it last night with ONE VOTE.
We can stop this. We have to.

I understand this will sound hyperbolic but it's more accurate than not to say anything you care about, this bill seeks to destroy.
Final passage by one vote, though likely the present and 2 NV were all available to them if they had been needed. It's with the Senate now

Went and I checked this, and Edwin's correct: On the left is text from the reconciliation bill "PROHIBITING FEDERAL MEDICAID AND CHIP FUNDING FOR GENDER TRANSITION PROCEDURES FOR MINORS" On the right is from the Manager's amendment that strikes the word "FOR MINORS."

Elon Musk's reaction to being challenged is to say that the person who asked him an impertinent question is LITERALLY NOT A HUMAN BEING because they failed to acknowledge his genius and the perfection in everything he does

![“You’ve talked about $4 billion a day being saved,” Husain said. “And I think everyone can agree that combating waste and inefficiency in government is a very good thing, but if you add that up, it’s not gonna get to $2 trillion over the lifetime of DOGE.”
Musk looked visibly perturbed by the suggestion that his own forecasts were erroneous. “I’m sorry?” he shot back, with Husain then repeating her comment.
“I mean, I feel you’re somewhat trapped in the NPC [‘non-playable character,’ video game parlance] dialogue tree of a traditional journalist,” Musk replied.
“So it’s difficult when I’m conversing with someone who’s trapped in the dialogue tree of a conventional journalist because it’s like talking to a computer.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qlnirjwff4ibiw3wchmleszo/bafkreifgycz52xcm67bhobzigxxly7ei5guvc5i5dakyjhmv4qwmuqobai@jpeg)

the criticism that Dems put forth old and ailing politicians to their detriment is unquestionably true, but there’s a large contingent of the party dedicated to calling you a heartless scumbag if you point it out
Three democratic members of congress who were sworn in this January have died in the first four-plus months of the session.
The family of Dem Rep. Gerry Connolly announced that he has died at 75. Connolly had been fighting cancer.

Senate Republicans Are Poised to Deal a Shattering Blow to the Filibuster
Throughout the 2024 campaign, GOP senators shouted from the rooftops that they would preserve the tactic if they won back the chamber. Whoops.

I say without any irony or sarcasm: yes, thank you, we want parliamentary sabotage.
Again, I'm 100% serious. It's one of the few things a minority party can do, and which Republicans themselves did. It's essential.

They wanted to pass this evil budget to take away healthcare from millions earlier today. It’s still stuck in the rules committee cause House Dems introduced over 500 amendments and we are lined up to debate on them. Delaying is important. Keep up the pressure on these Congressional Republicans.

The current budget bill is an atrocity and out-of-touch leaders like Chuck Schumer laid the groundwork by voting for the CR.
