BREAKING: The House passed a bill that limits judges' ability to block the Trump administration's unconstitutional actions nationwide.

This bill is a threat to the rule of law and endangers all of our rights — the Senate must reject it.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Here’s how VA CD1 is treated by their cowardly representative #RepRobWittman. If he holds office hours (during which he is never in attendance) and his constituents show up and express their concerns, and he doesn’t like what he’s hearing, he’ll just shut down the offices. We deserve better.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

Right about now I’m voting Sterling K. Brown for president. Though honestly, my cat Milo would make a good president at the moment. That assumes we’re still living in an era where we get to choose. #paradise #wtf

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Here are the 6 MAGA extremists (and their public phone numbers) who have intro'd a bill to allow South Carolina to execute women who receive an abortion.

If you haven't heard about SC H3537, it's because corporate media has ignored it. Here's how to fight back: www.qasimrashid.com/p/s-carolina...

100% this - MAGAts are loudly decrying the disparity in employment due to deficient training, while voting for people who plan to make it nearly impossible for people to acquire the training they need to become competitive.

These folks are irony-deficient.
MAGA tech bros are complaining Americans aren't educated enough—meanwhile oppose canceling exploitative student debt, do nothing about high university tuition, want to help abolish the Department of Education, and support the hundreds of book bans across GOP run states.

Yeah, good plan.

Remember when Israel bombed ONE Gaza hospital causing outrage & Israeli Govt declared “We don’t bomb hospitals it was actually Hamas.”

UN report confirms Israel has bombed 110 hospitals & medical centers & Hamas was in ZERO of them.

But it’s not genocide😐

Okay, let’s talk about stuff that makes you happy. Today, for me, it’s this show on Netflix. Coleman Domingo was so great as Victor Strand on Fear the Walking Dead. His character Muncie Daniels on The Madness is so very different but just as gripping. I’d watch him in anything.
