A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

He profits by attacking science, while kneecapping our ability as scientists to improve humanity & the planet.
He must be removed as HHS Secretary immediately. So do his allies in other leadership roles.
If not, the immeasurable harm he’s already caused will get far worse.

Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations.
The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.

The President's reckless actions targeting DC autonomy mean many of our unhoused neighbors are at immediate risk.
🚨 If you or a neighbor need support, call the shelter hotline immediately at 202-399-7093.
DC government has expanded availability.

We’re holding a lunch-out today to demand that @propublica management agree to a fair discipline and performance evaluation system. Just today, a member of our Bargaining Committee and Unit Council was fired as a result of ProPublica's flawed system.

I want to be clear: this provision will defund Planned Parenthood. Clinics that provide life-saving care like cancer screenings will be forced to close their doors. By limiting access to these clinics, Republicans are basically implementing a backdoor nationwide abortion ban.
News: The Senate Parliamentarian has officially declared that the provision to 'defund' Planned Parenthood can stay in reconciliation
The bill currently says that PP, and other similar organizations, will not be able to receive federal funds for one year after the law is enacted

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.

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture.

One of Norway's largest fuel companies just announced that they will no longer refuel US Navy vessels after Trump’s treatment of Zelenskyy.
“It made us sick... We encourage all Norwegians and Europeans to follow our example.”

2) Not only is this statement absurd and wrong, but it’s also grammatically incorrect. Trumps’?!
