“This is so that people making over $1 million… can get a $90,000 average tax cut.” — @jonfavs.bsky.social

Republicans in Congress want to cut Medicaid, raise health costs, and take food from kids—all to give millionaires and billionaires a tax break.

We won't let them. #ProtectMedicaid

Karen Bass: "It's felt in LA like we're part of a grand experiment. How far will the public tolerate the federal government intervening and seizing power from a governor? I think it's being tried out here."

Q: Your intelligence community says they have no evidence that Iran is building a nuke

TRUMP: Then my intelligence community is wrong. Who said that?

Q: You director of national intelligence Tulsi Gabbard

TRUMP: She's wrong

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

The correct way to connect the authoritarian presence in LA and the Big Beautiful Bill is that the bill gives the government the resources to do this in dozens of cities at once. So if you don't like what's happening in LA, it's coming to your town if the bill passes.

What Trump is doing in California is right out of the authoritarian playbook. Violence is never acceptable — period. But people have the right to peaceful protest.

Trump needs to let local law enforcement do its job and stop adding fuel to the fire for his political spectacle.

Whenever I have to go out (and I don’t feel like it) I imagine there’s a group of birds who are “people watchers” that have been waiting their whole bird lives to spot an introvert in the wild and that they’ll be telling their bird friends about me for years and it kinda helps

This is from Senator Chuck Grassley’s town hall yesterday in Iowa. Voters are fed up with him and his fellow Republicans in Congress paving the way for a trillion dollar tax handout to billionaires by cutting food assistance and Medicaid.

Experiences like this person's matter deeply if we want to have any hope of winning. Does a one-day mobilization, however large, dislodge Trump & co. from power? Of course not. But if it helps boost the morale of people who previously felt disconnected or hopeless, that in itself has major value.
It was a morale booster for me, who spent the last week sobbing over cuts at my agency. I'm remote so haven't been able to mourn with my colleagues in person. I've felt disconnected from it all. Attending the protest in my home town yesterday helped my own mental health considerably.

That is most of the dream, yes.

But this isn’t about understanding economics. These people understand America’s most stylized economic fact: any American economic growth that doesn’t benefit white people at the expense of non-white people is not “economic growth”. They’re saying they’ll die on it.
It’s not just that they fundamentally misunderstand basic economics, but that they also want to live a fantasy where they make $200k working at a toaster-making factory while their stay-at-home wife makes dinner for them in the suburbs and cares for their 4 children.

Senator Cory Booker is showing America what real leadership looks like: genuine heart, fierce compassion, relentless dedication, and brilliant integrity. He's teaching a masterclass in humanity—and making history while he's at it. America, take notes. THIS is how it's done. Love him. #CoryBooker
