@durbin.senate.gov your legacy in the Senate will now forever be voting to kill the ACA.
This kind of thing is why progressives like Mamdani are now winning elections.

Let me get this straight.

Hours after Stephen Miller attacks judges publicly for blocking Trump's deployment of military to Portland, calling it a "legal insurrection", a judges home burns down.

It sounds like Stephen Goebbels needs to tone down the rhetoric.

It should be way bigger news that Trump effectively killed any attempt by foreign countries to build new factories in the United States with this idiotic ICE move. Just incalculable long term damage.

An apology is insufficient. Everyone email foxfeedback@foxnews.com and tell them Kilmeade must be fired immediately. #GoodTrouble

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

President Trump balked when asked whether he would send National Guard troops to Republican-led cities with high crime rates: “Sure, but there aren’t that many of them."

Of the 30 U.S. cities with the highest number of violent crimes, more than half were in red states. trib.al/fa7nEgq

This administration has the audacity to say that they don't want to attack Social Security benefits.

Then, they do everything in their power by a million cuts to try to undermine Social Security.

That is dead wrong. - @rweingarten.bsky.social @aft.org

The Senate votes tomorrow on Trump's pick to lead Social Security. Trump and Musk are putting us on a glidepath to privatization, and Frank Bisignano is the yes-man that will help them do it. Republicans will be to blame when seniors and folks with disabilities start missing checks.

Trump's threat to arrest Governor Evers is a chilling attempt to normalize fascism & silence dissent.

They want to bully & intimidate anyone who doesn't conform to their ideology.

We will NOT be intimidated.

We will NOT be silenced.

We will DEFEND our freedom.

Democrats need to find their voice & stop being nice & civil to the felon & their minions aka republicans. The felon is nothing but a criminal & deserves nothing but contempt. Dems need to find their backbone & show that they are the party that helped win WW2 & not surrender the US to Russia.

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️

Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines.

He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.
