Republicans can only lose 3 Senate votes on Trump's Big Ugly Bill — and these senators are the most vulnerable in 2026:

-Collins (ME)
-Tillis (NC)
-Sullivan (AK)
-Husted (OH)
-Moody (FL)
-Cornyn (TX)
-Ernst (IA)

If they represent you, tell them to vote NO.

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

Just so I understand correctly, it’s a crime to give water to people who are waiting in very long lines for hours to vote, but it’s just fine for corrupt billionaire Nazi Musk to commit an actual felony by bribing people in Wisconsin with million dollar checks for their votes.

Short sided AF!

We can shut borders, cut ties, and look away—but viruses don’t care. The next pandemic is just a 12-hour flight away and we have an HHS secretary, who doesn’t believe in vaccines.

This decision will hurt us at home…

Putting a reporter in a Signal chat where you’re planning airstrikes, that’s careless. Sharing information that puts our pilots' lives at risk — that’s reckless.

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

The U.S. has actively dismantled the global disease-detection programs we all—including Americans—rely on to stay safe

Today this administration’s short-sighted global health agenda got even even worse

It’s ending its support for vaccine programs around the world

Why?? 🧵

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 is what fascism looks like, folks
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Seen people wondering why so many major institutions are prostrating themselves before Trump and maybe this is obvious but it's because the incentives for cowardice are immediate and obvious while the disincentives aren't. All they lose is their dignity and you can't pay the bills with that anyway

The Vice President of the United States celebrating the death of innocent civilians. Shocking, disgusting, absolutely not surprising.

He's also celebrating a war crime. No wonder:

* They used a platform with disappearing messages
* They fired all the JAGs
Another disgusting part of all of this is the proof a blatant war crime to which the Vice President of the United States responded: Excellent.

Trump is conducting an authoritarian witch hunt against foreign students here legally, simply because they’ve engaged in free speech that his regime doesn’t like.

This is modern-day McCarthyism and an attack on the First Amendment. We must all stand up against it.

Jeffrey Goldberg and Pete Hegseth. One takes DOD protocols seriously:

Goldberg:

—Did not disclose sensitive information; and
—Left the chat when clear he was on chain (errantly) w/classified plans

We’ve asked Pee Wee amateurs to play in big leagues. Expect (a lot) more unforced errors.
