We should have the House right now. Let me say it again: we should have the House.
This ain’t just a Texas problem, it’s a national problem. They’re stealing seats to keep power, and that’s how we ended up with Speaker Johnson instead of Speaker Jeffries.
They can’t win fair, so they cheat.

Just a reminder: the brutal Medicaid cuts don’t kick in until after the 2026 midterms. That’s not a coincidence—it’s a trap. Don’t fall for it. Don’t let them hide the damage. Show up. Vote like everything’s on the line—because it is.

McMorrow: What Trump has done is weaponize us against each other, when everybody needs hospitals, good schools, and health care.
It has become this battle for scarcity, when we’re the wealthiest country in the world. We should not be fighting each other for our basic needs.

At a time when inequalities of income and wealth in America are wider than they have been in more than 80 years, Trump's big ugly bill is utterly shameful.
It’s now up to us to make sure Republicans pay the price at the ballot box.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
