Rep. Sarah McBride is already a legend—and she’s not here to play.

She was the 2nd House Dem to sign the discharge petition today to force a vote on the Hands Off Medicaid & SNAP Act.

If GOP reps swear they’re not gutting care, they can prove it. Or shut up.

Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country."

The first will be in Phoenix March 5.

Hey, @nytimes.com, is the Department of Justice hounding the political critics of Elon Musk at the request of hardened neo-Nazis a story? Because I'm pretty sure it would be a five-alarm fire if Biden had done it

I, a US expat living in Canada for more than 20 years, have emailed mine. I still vote in federal elections.
Okay, I want to say it again for anyone who needs to hear it right now:

Yes, calling is better for getting in touch with your reps. But right now? DO IT HOWEVER YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE.

I'm really concerned that the emphasis on calling right now is stopping people from getting in touch.

For everyone who voted for Trump because “he’s not a politician”…

I hope your next colonoscopy is done by a plumber.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.

I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.

But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare.

Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.”

We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin in his farewell address: "You know, I was taught at West Point to pray that I would 'choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong.' And I have tried every day as Secretary to live up to that teaching."

It's a prayer for America right now.

Gavin Newsom launched a website to combat the wildfire disinformation spreading about Los Angeles, because people can’t be bothered to do a simple Google search before sharing nonsense. And because people suck!

How many incarcerated firefighters are fighting the LA wildfires? What type of work are they doing? And how do they feel about it?

I teamed up with @themarshallproject.org to answer all these questions we've been seeing online: www.themarshallproject.org/2025/01/11/l...
The Dangerous Yet Desirable Work of Being an Incarcerated Firefighter in California
More than 900 prison firefighters were responding to the crisis in Los Angeles — but their pay is low and the ethics of their choice are complicated.
