The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.
If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Any planes in the air MUST RETURN
Boasberg orders the DOJ to immediately inform his clients (ICE) about "any planes that are going to take off or is in the air need to be returned to the United States," and that all people on those planes within the class must immediately be returned to US detention during the course of the TRO.

Authoritarians don't willingly cede power.
The oligarchs didn't spend billions simply for a brief taste of feudalism.
If you're dreaming of comebacks via midterms and elections, you're kidding yourself.
It will take an uprising.
By trying to prevent it, the democrats are doing their bidding.

FYI, I know you are all upset & I’m devastated. We’ve tried to mobilize people from all over to get the Senate Dems to do what’s right.
In about 15 minutes, I am planning to be disappointed. Please take out your anger, appropriately by sending letters, emails, making calls & supporting primary

Trump can call me names but the truth remains. He is an unhinged wanna be dictator who is angry that I beat him in court and won't cower in fear. Now he is weaponizing the federal government against his political opponents.
I will not back down.
I will not bow or scrape.
I will never obey.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

By supporting this NOT CLEAN CR, you are literally empowering Trump Musk and them to continue to dismantle the government and fire civil servants. So, is it really about a shutdown? They are already shutting it down!
