@govpritzker.illinois.gov's take on Kirk is the correct one:
"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."
On point. So glad Democrats are saying this.

NOW can we say "not my president"?
FOTUS ramping up hate rhetoric toward Dems, fueling the fires of polarization. Another page from the authoritarian playbook. He declares (again) he hates Dems because they “hate our country”, and they are “unpatriotic”, and Americans who disagree with him, “are evil”.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

These people stuff their bank accounts by simply existing and this woman's already difficult life is going to get harder so they can get richer for no reason and through no effort and at her expense.

To keep Medicaid, a mom caring for her disabled adult son may soon need to prove she works
Republicans have touted Medicaid work requirements both as a way to reduce federal spending on the program and as a moral imperative for Americans.

5/ The bill cuts the help middle income Americans get to buy health care on the Affordable Care Act exchange.
A 60 year old couple making $85,000 (not a king's ransom) would see a $26,000 increase in health care premiums. Yes, that's right - $26,000.

4/ A new tax break for coal companies! So the tax incentives for wind and solar are GONE, and the coal industry is getting NEW tax incentives.
It's official policy now to to not just deny global warming exists - but to actively make it WORSE.

3/ The bill BANS state regulation of AI - a stone cold giveaway to the tech companies who want to addict our kids, pollute our politics, and kill our jobs with zero guardrails.
Rumor is there's a new language coming, but it's still an effective ban. Just an outrage.

2/ It was bad enough they cut all the tax incentives for wind and solar energy - they added a NEW TAX on these projects to make sure America never builds any new renewables.
Remember, Trump promised the oil industry provisions like this in exchange for a $1B campaign donation.

Ok, so Republicans just introduced a 900 page bill none of them have read. But my team is going through it line by line and on this 🧵you can see the hidden provisions we found. Will update all day.
1/ NEW Medicaid cuts, so now 17 million - instead of 16M - lose health care.
