This will horrifically impact thousands of veterans part of studies and clinical trials for healthcare issues ranging from cancer to nutrition to mental health. Just one study alone was to help doctors determine the risk of suicide among ER patients. This petty Trump fight will kill veterans.

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall.

It didn't have to be this way.

But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall.

Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

The new HHS report on trans youth care "will be cited every time the government seeks to investigate, prosecute, defund healthcare providers...It will probably be used in efforts to criminalize parents as well," predicts Kellan Baker @whitmanwalker.bsky.social

Writing an op-ed is not illegal activity. They are revoking visas for thought crimes and for constitutionally protected expression.
State Department spox Tammy Bruce just blatantly lies and says that students are getting visas revoked for "illegal activity" (Rumeysa Ozturk was not charged with a crime)

If there was a “Houthi PC 𝙨𝙢𝙖𝙡𝙡 group” text chain, might there have been another chain for a 𝙗𝙞𝙜𝙜𝙚𝙧 group?

The latest crazy just proves what we all know. They are discussing everything on Signal to avoid any discovery or FOIA or archival laws. So illegal but here we are.

Trump is already defying the courts.

He has no more right to defy a district court than the Supreme Court.

Essentially saying all lower court rulings are optional for Trump is legally incorrect and irresponsible.
Schumer: "If he defies the Supreme Court, then we are in uncharted territory ... our entire democracy is at risk. I believe that if Donald Trump should defy the courts, the public will rise up. Democrats will fight it in every single way ... autocrats only succeed if the public lets them."

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

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.

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.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
