Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left."
It’s between democracy and oligarchy.
The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

Look at this graph.
The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.
This is why we must build back union power.

I received this email from the SSA as well. It is a complete lie. Social Security income is still taxed — the Big, Ugly Bill did NOTHING to change that.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

Tonight we saw an example of the risks associated with the most dangerous force on earth—the egos of old men. Concentrations of weapons grade self-interest and face-saving led to the destruction inflicted in Iran.

Back in 2003, Bush lied to the American people about WMDs to justify attacking Iraq.
Trump also clearly misled the country and didn’t even inform Congress about his intention to bomb Iran. He didn’t even listen to his own intelligence agencies.
Every American is less safe today.

Penn Wharton analyzed the GOP tax bill and found they’re hurting the lowest earners.
Like folks making between 17,000 - 51,000 will LOSE $700 on average.
Make less than 17,000? You stand to lose $1,000 annually.
Literally reverse Robin Hoods. The GOP are monsters.

DOGE initially promised to save taxpayers $2 trillion.
Now it admits it's only delivered $160B in cuts.
And even those minimal savings are nearly wiped out by the cost of implementing DOGE's cuts: $135B.
We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

Trump will reportedly end the IRS Direct File program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free.
This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.
Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

SCOTUS ordered the President, unanimously, to return Garcia to the U.S.
The President is defying that order.
The judicial branch cannot enforce rulings. It’s Congress who must tell the president to obey SCOTUS or else face impeachment.
