Jeff Bezos has enough money to send Katy Perry and Gayle King on a joyride to space for 11 minutes.

He can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Senate Majority Leader Thune is now pushing to KILL the estate tax in the Republican tax plan.

A full repeal of the estate tax would amount to a $2.7 TRILLION tax break for billionaires.

That's trillions either straight to the deficit or cut from working people.

Unacceptable.

It’s so eerie to me when someone’s whole brand is self-help/self-betterment and they never, ever mention politics.

The Democratic establishment regularly ignores their base.

This is just another instance of ignoring the will of the people.

If Dems ever get power again - assuming free and fair elections (big assumption) - they will never again have the excuse of “we can’t pass laws through congress and the president is powerless.”

Presidency is now a king level position capable of law by EO alone apparently.

1. Huge! Texas A&M's drag ban is blocked. A&M argued that Trump's recent EO on trans people mandated a drag ban, and also argued that drag is obscene.

A Bush-appointed judge replied that Trump's EOs "cannot override the first amendment," and that drag is art.

Judge Blocks Texas A&M Drag Ban: Trump Executive Orders "Cannot Override" First Amendment
The Texas A&M Board banned an LGBTQ+ group from holding a drag event on campus. A federal judge has ruled they must be allowed to proceed with the event.

Big Pharma is suing to stop Medicare from lowering prescription drug costs.

They keep hiking the price of life-saving medications.

And now they're asking Trump for a tax break that could hand them $15 billion.

And he's probably going to give it to them.

The system is broken.

If the government shuts down this weekend, the only people to blame are Trump and Musk.

They're abusing every power they can to attack services working people need—and Social Security is next.

They want everyone to happily vote for a CR that lets them do more damage.

No way.

DOGE “seemed unsure” of what USAID programs they cut and is now attempting to reverse some of the cuts, says @propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy. “This is the opposite of a careful review."

You've read the stories about Gavin Newsom throwing transgender people under the bus in sports, prisons, and gender affirming care for trans youth.

Now watch the video and listen.

It's as bad as it sounds. He betrayed trans people and threw us under a bus driven by Charlie fucking Kirk.

Hey Washington, be sure to ask @gluesenkampperez.house.gov why she voted to censure Al Green. She’s up for re-election in 2026 and I sure would like to know why she forgot she ran as a Democrat.
Across Southwest Washington, folks are facing challenges.

Fentanyl continues to hollow out communities, it's still too difficult to start a small business, run a family farm, or buy a home, and prices for everyday needs like groceries, childcare, and more remain too high. ⬇️

Exactly what I was thinking might happen. Their anti-trans animus is infecting other cases. Trump is biting off too much too fast.

My hope is that all of this factors into some of the fence-sitting justices on SCOTUS for big upcoming cases.

They told you 87,000 IRS agents were going to audit you and break down your door to arrest you.

That was a lie.

Now they handed your tax data to the richest man in the world, who's on a mission to extract the most money possible from the American people.

Bait and switch.

Republicans are trying to cut $2 TRILLION from families to pay for tax cuts for billionaires and corporations.

Here's what they're considering:

—Kicking millions off of Medicaid
—Raising grocery costs for 40 million
—Raising average student loan payment by $200 a month

Really.

Incredible news! More hospitals have returned to offering gender affirming care after Trump's executive order was blocked.

Moments after publishing our story on hospitals returning, Childrens National DC announced a return to care.

And JUST now, Colorado Children's is back to giving care!

AMAZING

PSA- Gov. Braun has banned the distribution of the Imagination Station books in Indiana.

For those who do not know, Imagination Station is a program started by Dolly Parton which provides a free book each month to children from 0-5.

Major news! A court in Montana has just declared SB458, a bill that "defines sex" in a way that ends the legal recognition of transgender people in Montana, as facially unconstitutional.

This is the first time a bill defining sex has been ruled on!

Huge win for trans people in MT!
