It probably shouldn’t be surprising that Republicans jacking up your health insurance premiums by 2x, 3x+ isn’t a big deal to them.
Ron Johnson: "I don't think this is going to be any kind of gut-wrenching problem if these enhanced subsidies just go away. We'll probably have the weather the lies told by the Democrats. Democrats say all sorts of things that are untrue."

After the Enabling Act of 1933, which gave Hitler ultimate power, what happened to the court system in Nazi Germany is now happening to the court system in America under the fascist authoritarian Trump regime. SCOTUS has become utterly corrupted and is now an enemy of the people.

32 USC § 502(f)(2) would violate Article IV of the Constitution if applied to support deployment of un-federalized out-of-state National Guard troops into a state that didn’t want those troops there, as with Trump’s proposed use of the Texas National Guard to invade Illinois

I saw a "Let's go Brandon!" Shirt at the MN State Fair today.

Oddly enough, my immediate thought was, "Let's go Brandon! You're about to outlive him!" Is this hope? 🤷🏼‍♀️🙏🙏🙏💀🤡🍊

Berman: Was the President right about the polling?

Enten: No. If we are comparing him to other presidents at this point in their presidencies, he is the second lowest on record compared only to himself.

We should have the House right now. Let me say it again: we should have the House.

This ain’t just a Texas problem, it’s a national problem. They’re stealing seats to keep power, and that’s how we ended up with Speaker Johnson instead of Speaker Jeffries.

They can’t win fair, so they cheat.

We cannot forget who the real criminals are. We cannot ignore those who have been proven guilty and the values they claimed to represent.

🚨DHS is sending deportation letters to children in Illinois 🚨

At least 12 unaccompanied minors in the Chicago area—many just recently reunited with family—have received sudden deportation letters from DHS.

No hearing. No explanation. Just a threat: “Leave or the federal government will find you" 🧵

Dear Paramount, the only reason I log into my free Paramount+ account is to watch two shows, Late Night with Stephen Colbert and The Daily Show with John Stewart. First, your app sucks and barely ever works. Second, I heard that Target was having a sale on knee pads, you might want to check it out.

This is not the point, but this guy brutalized in front of his small child by ICE did not “overstay his visa.” He had gone in for a green card interview & was awaiting a final decision. US govt punishing legal immigrants for their own fucked up processing times.

A 15-year-old boy with no criminal record held at "Alligator Alcatraz."

A father who has lived here for 30 years. No criminal record. Still held by ICE after nearly 6 months.

We are witnessing the cruelty of Trump's police state.

“I’m plainly convinced that my situation in this ICE jail is direct retaliation for my coverage,” Mario Guevara told @ajc.com in an exclusive interview from the Folkston, Georgia ICE detention center where he is currently detained, despite a judge's bail order. “I haven’t committed any crimes.”

Democracy is circling the drain in Texas
The first redistricting proposals for TX are in.

This is what cracking and packing looks like.

This is an intensive gerrymander.

See how the districts spiral in fingers into the cities.

Lizzie Fletcher's district TX7 becomes almost entirely rural.
