SENATE BUDGET CUTS MEDICAID BY $39B IN TEN RED STATES

GOP Sen Tillis of NC shared this flyer with his caucus behind closed doors.

It shows Medicaid funds each of these states will lose with the GOP “Big Ugly Betrayal.”

Tillis is right. Share this chart with the American people.

JUST IN: MISSION NOT QUITE ACCOMPLISHED... YET

Preliminary:
- Attack sealed off entrances, but underground facilities did not collapse.
- Much of the enriched uranium was moved before the strikes.
- Iran's nuclear program set back by only a few months.

The idea that Trump adheres to deadlines is absolutely ludicrous.

The man promised us a healthcare plan over 450 weeks ago.

It's been infrastructure week since I was born.

Russia sanctions are supposed to be coming in two weeks.

We had a magnificent turnout for today's NO KINGS protest today at Houston City Hall. Estimated attendance ranged from 15,000 (Mayor) and 26,000 (Fox 26, organizer estimates). As always, there was NO disturbance or violence.

TRUMP IS REPEATING HITLER'S TERRIBLE TARIFFS
Hitler sought to “liberate” Germans from a globalized world order by launching tariffs in Feb 1933, causing a significant economic downturn while raising the price of basic goods.

TARIFFS DO NOT MAKE ECONOMIC SENSE

TRUMP'S TARIFFS ARE A NEW DANGEROUS POLITICAL TOOL

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
