Mike Johnson was pissed that we pushed a petition through and are forcing a vote on extended ACA tax credits. He just can’t stop losing.

But right now we need your help. We need everyone to contact Congress and tell them to get it done:
Tell Congress: Demand Speaker Johnson hold a vote IMMEDIATELY on the ACA tax credit extension

Welcome to an “I totally planned that!” edition of the MAGA Minute!

Today Trump announces that the only reason unemployment is high is because people are out of work.

Thanks, Don.

These brave Californians testified on Capitol Hill and shared their stories about the abuse they experienced at the hands of federal immigration officials.

That took courage.

Washington Post's new headline is still wrong.

1. The release was not "huge."
2. DOJ missed the deadline to release all the files.
3, No mention of extensive redactions.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

To say that American foreign policy in the Middle East is being conducted entirely on behalf of a foreign state is reminiscent of antisemitic tropes and has the potential to lend credence to the narratives of those who hate the Jewish People.

It also, unfortunately, happens to be true.
AIPAC praises Trump for "historic..decisive..justified action." The pro-Israel lobby makes no mention of the prospect of peace with Tehran that the president repeatedly claimed he has made more likely - and notably thanks Democrats for years of arming Israel + pressuring Iran.

Matt Stoller: How 'oligarchs' and 'extraction' fueled America's housing crisis
Home ownership is now out-of-reach for many Americans. “Homes are for people to live in,” says Matt Stoller of the American Economic Liberties Project, but he warns big landlords are "building homes for money, not people." President Trump claims to care about home affordability, but Stoller insists his administration is actually "on the side of oligarchs."
