Wow. History made.

Clipse just became the first hip-hop act ever to perform at the Vatican, backed by John Legend and the Voices of Free orchestra.

They performed “The Birds Don’t Sing.”

This breakdown is 🔥

The debate on which side uses political violence as a weapon is over. The receipts are here, and they all point right.

The Neo-Nazis & White Supremacists are convening in Huntington Beach CA in the wake of the Kirk killing.

And local GOP officials, Trump's DOJ Civil Rights Division (including Harmeet Dhillon & HB's Michael Gates), Trump, JD Vance, MAGA Mike Johnson & John Thune are doing nothing to calm it down!

Charlie Kirk was someone who preached hate, misogyny, and racism under the guise of religion.
For a country that was founded on uniting the colonists against hatred, this is not someone the US or its founders should be proud of.

Pointing out Charlie Kirk's hate speech is not hate speech. It's objective reporting. Apologize to Matthew Dowd and rehire him.

A full-throated embrace of genocide is hate speech – beyond all measure. Fire Brian Kilmeade. Immediately.

Yes!!! This is being under represented in the media right now. This is disturbing
People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Please explain what just happened. Is there no way to stop this w the reconciliation to be used by GOP to get around the filibuster? Are we sunk?

We are selling citizenship now.
Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."
