REPUBLICANS want to CRASH THE ECONOMY

If they didn't, HOUSE REPUBLICANS could join with Democrats today and take congressional action to override #TrumpTariffs and stop the self-inflicted nonsense

Instead, THEY'RE DISMANTLING OUR GOVERNMENT, DEMOCRACY & THE ECONOMY

69M married women could lose their voting rights if the SAVE Act is passed. Transgender individuals too.

Why? Absent a valid passport, you must present a birth certificate *with the same name as your registration* to be registered.

This is insane!

#ProudBlue Let's talk about the so-called Save Act.

Don't let the name fool you. This bill doesn't SAVE anything - this is 100% a voter suppression bill. #HandsOffHerVote

Yes SCOTUS repudiated the Trump/Stephen Miller position that AEA deportees are entitled to no process at all

But requiring such “notice as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief in the proper venue before such removal occurs" is woefully insufficient

Nevertheless—habeas here we come

Many of the arguments about "free speech" nowadays are really about "favored speech" versus "disfavored speech." The AP and "60 Minutes" are disfavored by the administration

AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Thank you to ACLU, NY, CA, IL, DC, NC, and the many others standing up in court against Trump’s bogus attempt to rescind birthright citizenship.

Like I said yesterday, this is a case we CAN WIN if we fight for it. These folks are showing us how it’s done.

Project 2025 also wants to increase school choice so families who can afford private school get public money to help pay for it.
