Thoughts and prayers don’t stop mass shootings, and they don’t stop climate disasters either.

This is a tragedy Gov. Greg Abbott did nothing to prevent. He still denies that climate change is real. He won’t act, and he won’t regulate.

Katina works part-time so she can care for her mom, who underwent three surgeries to remove a spinal tumor.

Medicaid provides Katina access to health care that she could lose due to Republicans’ Big Betrayal.

We are fighting for Katina and every American whose health care is at risk.

I just spoke with @padilla.senate.gov. He’s standing strong.

The DHS statement is wildly inaccurate and filled with falsehoods.

The video shows you everything you need to know.

Trump's first-term corruption seemed huge, but it's already been dwarfed by the ongoing, unchecked festival of domestic and foreign corruption four months into in his second term. Blame the Supreme Court and the Republican Congress. My latest at @thebulwark.com

Republican Tommy Tuberville has blocked a Democratic resolution that would have condemned the proposed gift of a luxury jet from Qatar to Trump.

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed.

The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.

This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.

See what DOGE is really about?

RIP Wilson Center. Musk staffers visited the center, and shortly after, its leadership staff and senior government employees were ousted. Dozens of federal employees, about a third of the center’s workforce, were also slated for administrative leave.

I’m old enough to remember being told giving water away charitably in Georgia was a grave threat to election integrity.
Republicans in Wisconsin have been silent on the Musk giveaway — but the RNC has warned a group they cannot give ice cream to college students.
