I'm optimistic about 2026. The MAGA machine is self-destructing in real time--Suzie Wiles spilling the beans, Repugs aligning with Dems on discharge petitions, and Dems winning contests just about everywhere. Let's go!

Mamdani's Masterclass at the White House
Zohran Mamdani just ran circles around MAGA and the Democratic Establishment, walking out of the White House with a bag of riches after being praised and endorsed by Donald Trump.

The Bill to End the Shutdown Is Full of Giveaways to Republicans
The alleged “compromise” is a boon for the GOP, and especially those who helped Trump dispute the 2020 election results.

Call Hakeem Jeffries’ office at (202)225-5936 and let him know how angry you are at his statement praising the corrupt outgoing NYC Mayor Eric Adams. Dems can do better than Jeffries.

Kismet doesn’t like getting her whiskers wet and the traditional water bowls don’t work for that reason. A deep mug is the perfect solution.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.

Watch and share his message.

The data also highlights critical risks in other areas along the Guadalupe River in Kerr County, and nationwide as many Americans have a flood risk they are not aware of.

Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.

This is inexcusable. She should resign.

My statement
It is extremely difficult to overstate the harm from this bill. There has never been a larger cut to low-income Americans in US history. The bill cuts Medicaid by roughly $1 trillion dollars, at least four times the size of what was the largest Medicaid cut before this bill. It also cuts SNAP by roughly $175 billion, the largest in history, taking food away from children. People’s lives will be ruined because of this bill as the most vulnerable have support ripped away from them. It’s egregious enough that this bill makes the poor poorer, but at the same time it makes the rich richer. This bill quite literally takes from the poor while giving to the rich. Taken together, this is therefore the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in US history. That is impossible to justify morally. It is at a fundamental level unfair. Life is unfair, and it is the purpose of government to help alleviate that unfairness. This bill moves in the wrong direction, leaving those struggling the most worse off, betraying the promise of the government working to help the people it represents.
