The plan to force taxpayers to cover emergency medical costs for non-citizens is a law called EMTALA: signed into law by the infamous democrat Ronald Reagan.

Lisa McClain: "Democrats' plan forces taxpayers to cover the majority of emergency medical costs for all non-citizens. Another $28 billion tab for who? You guessed it, the American people."

Do your best on Saturday.

Above ALL else stay calm.

It’s going to be so hard.

You’re going to get pissed.

You’re going to want to lash out.

Don’t do it.

Stay together.

Be safe.

If all else fails just walk away.

I don’t want to hear about any of you getting hurt.

⁨The blatantly political videos being forced on airports across the country are not only an abuse of taxpayer dollars, but they violate the law.

I'm joining @SenBlumenthal and @SenJackReed to demand DHS take down these videos immediately.⁩

Man, they know the marches this weekend are going to be huge and full of everyday folks and create terrible optics for them and they are just going all-out with the dumb "soros-funded" stuff to try to limit the exposure their fox-bubble base gets to any of it

Journalists turn in access badges, exit Pentagon rather than agree to new reporting rules…

Boxes of documents lined a Pentagon corridor and reporters carried chairs to the parking lot…

Shortly after 4, about 40 to 50 journalists left together after handing in badges.

Journalists turn in access badges, exit Pentagon rather than agree to new reporting rules

Journalists at the Pentagon turned in access badges and cleaned out their workspaces, the price for refusing to agree to new restrictions on their jobs at the seat of U.S. military power.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

Several people wrote in about insurers leaving the healthcare.gov marketplace, which gives people fewer options. A man from Berkley sent me this letter he received from his provider that is leaving the marketplace.

The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.
