NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.
The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.
At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Law enforcement has been sent to silence disabled Americans peacefully protesting in the Senate—because Republicans are trying to rip away the Medicaid that keeps them alive.
This is cruelty, plain & simple.

Nat Guard/DHS threw tear gas canisters and smoke grenades into the crowd. Protesters and media hit. Pellet rounds deployed. All to seemingly clear path for a convoy of DHS/Border Patrol vehicles. I got hit but fine after an eye rinse.

Crowds of brave people have surrounded the ICE detention centre in Los Angeles. They are trying to liberate victims kidnapped by Trump’s regime forces.
Victims were abducted and thrown into the basement of the building without due process. #3E

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.
Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.
Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds.
Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.
It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.
They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.
I’m happy to invest and/or help

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.
Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.
Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

If they can't hold their end of the deal, Illinoisans deserve to know.

“At least Russia has elections”
Russia frequently jails and kills any opposition to Putin, who has been in power since 1999.
If you like dictatorships, that’s fine. Just admit that. Don’t insult anyone’s intelligence—including your own—by claiming Russia has real elections.

This was always the plan. Always.
Baldwin: "Last night, the president said 'I'm not touching Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, VA, I'm not touching them.' By this morning, he endorsed the House budget resolution which paves the way for massive cuts to Medicaid."

This is beyond disturbing. It’s like people have just lost their minds; making children suffer and die needlessly while preaching “save the children” is what fascism tastes like.
The measles outbreak in Texas is the worst in thirty years, and it’s a DIRECT result of declining vaccine rates thanks to RFK Jr.
Disinformation is eroding public health.
In 2023, measles cases were 20% higher than in 2022. In 2022 they were 18% higher than in 2021.
See the pattern?
