Now that I no longer live in Massachusetts, I'm going to miss voting for Senator Warren.
My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.

Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.

No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.

That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

Do Popes still excommunicate people? If so, he needs to remind Karoline Leavitt of that fact. Along with her brother, father, JD Vance, and anyone else calling themselves Roman Catholic and supporting this inhumanity.
The attorney for Bruna Ferreira—the mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew, who was detained by ICE officials—has revealed that Ferreira chose the White House press secretary to be her child’s godmother.

If you’re flying this holiday season, know your rights before heading to the airport. 
Know Your Rights | Enforcement at the Airport | ACLU
At the border, you are likely to encounter Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers, and you may encounter Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents. HSI is part of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Know your rights in these scenarios.

Brazil put their Trump in prison.

We put our Bolsonaro back in the White House so he could knock it down, persecute his enemies, and protect himself from facing judgment for raping children.

You know who has Universal Healthcare provided by the government? Folks in Argentina do and the US taxpayers sent them $40 Billion Dollars so they can keep it. How are your premiums doing?

I remember learning about informants in Nazi Germany and being deeply shocked! Today, @bostonglobe.com reported that Zachary Segal, pres. of Boston Univ.’s GOP student chapter phoned ICE repeatedly to get them to raid a car wash in Allston, then bragged about it. That's what this country has become

We turned out in record fucking numbers on an off fucking year!!!!Maybe try pandering to us for a change if you’d like us to keep doing that 😒😒😒
The entire right-wing propaganda machine came after Zohran Mamdani.

The president and his allies came after him.

Democratic leaders, by and large, did not have his back until the last minute.

He still won, turning out historic numbers and inspiring young voters.

His politics can win anywhere.

A pox on every lily-livered Democratic leader who sat out the NYC mayoral race. Step aside and let change come through.

Not sure that I know anyone in Virginia, but just in case ...
Reminder: In Virginia, you can register to vote on Election Day through same-day voter registration. This lets you register in person and cast a provisional ballot if you missed the regular registration deadline. Your vote will be counted once eligibility is confirmed, so don’t sit this one out!

John Roberts (@scotus.bsky.social) is evil. I'm not sure why he wants to destroy our democracy.
He wants to kill Obamacare, but has no other plan. He is not satisfied with his deportation operation because his ICE agents are not abusive enough. He plans to continue murdering people in the Caribbean Sea because the law and these humans are of no concern to him. All this thanks to John Roberts.

Watching the new season of The Diplomat, and thought I'd inadvertently skipped an episode or two between 4 and 5. After spending 2 1/2 seasons on the romance between Dennison and Kate, all of a sudden, Aiden Turner pops up! WTH?!? She and Dennison are FINALLY kissing, and then ... cut! New guy! SMH

I'd vote for this guy!
I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.
