Very comprehensive dialog on tRUmp's evisceration of the ACA, used for 24M Americans healthcare. We know that at minimum, 6M people will use the emergency rooms of America for healthcare. The other 18M will either go into deep debt equal to or worse than student debt, or just die earlier than usual.

@willa-oczki.bsky.social as a vet, what are your thoughts about the US military following orders to invade Venezuela and kidnap the president?

If you were/are in service, do you consider whether or not this order is legal? Or do you just enact the order?

I curious, not rage baiting.

Thank you.

In his press conference yesterday following military strikes on Venezuela, President Trump didn't mention "democracy" or "elections" once. He did mention another word 20 times: "oil." @mehdirhasan.bsky.social joins me at 10a ET on what that signals about Trump's intentions. #Velshi

Pres. Trump’s attacks on six lawmakers are an attempt to rebrand dissent as “sedition.” The Constitution’s framers inserted the word “only” into its treason clause for a reason, Yale law scholar Akhil Amar argues. They wanted to make it very hard for presidents to turn dissent into a crime. #Velshi
Treason by any other name: Trump’s ‘sedition’ spin
The FBI has opened an inquiry into six Democratic lawmakers who released a video calling on service members to refuse illegal orders. Yale law scholar Akhil Amar says Trump’s response reflects what the Constitution’s framers feared most, a president twisting dissent into a crime by sidestepping the document’s narrow definition of treason.

How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Hi @wajali.bsky.social, I was wondering if you've heard who shot the shooter? Was it another guardsman? I think MS Now reported this, recently.

Did local LEO discharge the defensive shot?

The President of the United States is publicly calling for the political prosecution of his political opponents, urging the death penalty because they urged soldiers to uphold the rule of law.

This should be front page news everywhere. It is not, which tells much about how we got to this point.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

also we now have a “whites only” refugee policy. they aren’t trying to hide the white supremacy anymore. it’s overt and mainstream.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Russell Vought is not only Pres. Trump’s budget director but also an author of Project 2025, and he’s seizing this government shutdown moment to pursue his ideological drive to gut federal agencies and programs that benefit Americans. #Velshi
The Vought Doctrine: Make it hurt
It’s day five and counting of a budget impasse in Washington, but critics say characterizing this moment as a government “shutdown” is misleading. For months, Donald Trump and his budget director Russell Vought have taken a sledgehammer to the federal bureaucracy and are now using this moment to gut agencies and programs that benefit working and middle-class Americans, while conveniently keeping in place everything that benefits the wealthy.
