fbi: there is no epstein client list
public: ok, but then what's this list of names of epstein's clients?
fbi: uh... technically that's more of a client register

And then this shit just came out.

When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car.

When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.
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

Today I watched as my colleague, @padilla.senate.gov, was shoved and handcuffed by Trump officials.

I immediately went to the Senate floor to respond. This is what I said:

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.
😲 Guys, Avelo painted their ICE jets all white! The tail number matches. How pathetic is that? 👀

A new analysis estimates the Trump/GOP budget's rollback of clean energy tax credits will eliminate nearly 830,000 jobs by 2030 and raise energy prices by 50% by 2035. 

Just another way the "big beautiful bill" will make the economy worse and your life more expensive.
Trump’s tax bill to cost 830,000 jobs and drive up bills and pollution emissions, experts warn
Bill will unleash millions more tonnes of planet-heating pollution and couldn’t come at a worse time, say experts

Trump and Speaker Johnson say they’re not cutting Medicaid. David Sacks is the latest to admit they are. Because they are. By almost $1 Trillion. #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode the deficit.

3) Demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.

They're trying to get away with it again.

White supremacy is when Donald Trump bans 1600+ vetted Afghan refugees who helped the USA against the Taliban, but proudly accepts white Afrikaaner South Africans as refugees to the USA for no apparent reason except they're white.

Reminder that Trump is pro-apartheid & racist.

Jefferson Griffin of NC should get zero credit for conceding. It is like a robber who stormed into a bank trying to steal people's savings & was caught, & then wanted to get credit for not getting away with it. Griffin & the GOP in NC including GOP judges were complicit in the attempted robbery.
