Republicans gave $132 billion in tax breaks to the top 1% in 2027.
With that money, we could have extended ACA tax credits for over 20 million people next year and still have $100 billion left over.

Let’s never forget this historic moment when we had a President who cared about the health & wellbeing of ALL Americans.
Let’s never forget the greedy PedoPrez & its Guardians Of Pedophiles who’ve made affordable healthcare a thing of the past. Dump them all.

This is the moment when more than 30 million Americans received affordable healthcare in 2010.
Today, Republicans have voted to make healthcare UNAFFORDABLE for more than 40 million.
The #RepublicanHealthCareFailure and greed will cost thousands of lives.
Vote and make Trump a lame duck in 2026.

In 2021, Jared Kushner claimed he was leaving politics. Instead, armed with billions in funding from Middle East autocrats, he is brokering “peace” deals for Trump that double as real estate ventures and positioning himself at the center of Trump's media ambitions. None of it is an accident.

Jared Kushner is so back, and what he's up to should concern us all.

Maybe, just maybe, some Republican elected officials around the country are getting tired of being threatened by a nearly 80 year old corrupt mob boss with a 36% approval rating who is increasingly unhinged and might actually start to grow spines. One can always hope.

The regime did everything in its power to rig the congressional maps in Indiana — and lost.
Even in deep-red territory, we are not powerless. Thank you to @indivisiblenei.bsky.social and everybody else who is fighting back (and winning) from inside the machine.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running.
This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

Maybe this new blog can respond, in one of its first posts, to the argument that the term “interim docket” is a deliberately misleading attempt to minimize the (very permanent) doctrinal and real-world consequences of #SCOTUS’s rulings on emergency applications?
