Anyway watch the whole thing from Broadview. "Proud" isn't even the word, it's nowhere near how I feel about how strong she's been in the last month.

If a few health professionals say something you don't like, all said it and we should destroy the CDC.

If a few students say something you don't like, all higher ed said it and we should end academic freedom.

If the president and his party does something, that's one guy spouting off, let it go.

Since May:

Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time.

Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time.

A judiciary at war with itself.

Share this video. Moms are showing up with their kids in DC and law enforcement has arrived with zip ties
An army of moms are are currently with Senator Cantwell in Washington DC right now rallying to stop the Big Ugly Bill and save Medicaid and SNAP.

We can't let Trump's aggressive rhetoric towards Iran distract us from the fact that his budget will destroy Medicaid. #MomSky

She’s lying, of course, but her lie is that she’s deeply incompetent and uninformed about basic aspects of her job.

Either way, she should be forced out in shame.
NEW: As video and news reports of immigrants and U.S. citizens being detained by masked men claiming to be ICE agents continue to dominate headlines and spark fears from coast to coast, Attorney General Pam Bondi told Congress she had no idea this was happening.

I love this idea.
Has any Rep thought to put a 12 panel picture board together with images of ICE and cartel members and force the admin to tell us which is which?

🚨NEW: Erez Reuveni, the DOJ lawyer fired for his honesty in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, sends Congress a whistleblower letter detailing lawlessness at the DOJ around the CECOT deportations.

He says Emil Bove told the DOJ to respond to likely court orders blocking flights with "fuck you."

Oh, the president *said* that? Well, that's good enough for me. His word is his bond and he has never gone back on it.
Mike Johnson brazenly lies: "We are not cutting Medicaid. The president has said that and I have said that. We're all said that. We're strengthening the program."

The politician who blew $60 million of taxpayer money on his sexual harassment defense wants to take the police force that blew $206 million of taxpayer money on settlements *in 2024 alone* and give them even more money and power which will result in even more settlements.
34,000 already employed by NYPD. Before overtime, $11 billion in taxpayer funds. Largest police force in world.

Cuomo calling for 5000 more. Base starting salary alone: $300 million more.

Could instead fund violence interruption & summer youth employment in every NYC neighborhood for 5 years.

Trump said he loves the poorly educated and, soon, he'll have many many more of them to love.
The "big, beautiful bill" weaponizes working-class reliance on debt to finance the college dream with such intensity that not only will it push millions to the financial brink, it will push them out altogether.

Whatever schools survive are likely to be populated only by society’s wealthiest.

How many social workers could we fund for $300m? How many after-school and summer programs for kids? Why is this money miraculously available to fund epic sessions of Candy Crush by goofuses in uniform and not to take care of our people in a way that could preempt violence?

I would like one of the people saying that Cuomo will be better at “standing up to Trump” to spell out exactly what they mean
Jessica Ramos basically admitted to Brian Lehrer that she thinks Trump will punish and single out NYC if Mamdani wins and that's her justification for backing Cuomo

First off, STOP MAKING DECISIONS BASED ON FEAR.

Second, stop giving that man more power by rewarding his racism with cowardice. FFS

LMAO “ICE is wearing masks & sunglasses bc they’ll be doxxed by the cartels.” SURE, JAN! Like Pablo Escobar is operating out of an Applebees off I-10 in Loma Linda. They’re hiding like the KKK because they don’t want their neighbors knowing they’re thugs with jobs they’re ashamed of, and should be.

One of the early outrages in the Red Scare was Truman’s EO asserting that “sympathetic association” with communist groups was grounds for being fired from a federal job.

That was bad enough, but now they’re saying alien residents can be deported for what they claim are their “expected beliefs”
Imagine trying to deport someone for their "expected beliefs"
