Friends: While ICE leaves cities reeling and families scarred by their violence, Republicans want to fund trump's gestapo instead of funding healthcare for millions.

Let's get 1,000 quick reposts and replies with #FundHealthcareStopICE to make it trend.

Please and thank you! 🙏💪

He isn’t softening his policies. He’s trying to control the press around the outcome of those policies. Do not let up the pressure on your MOC’s to demand they withhold taxpayer dollars from ICE and CBP until their unconstitutional actions are stopped.

AND IMPEACH AND REMOVE.

We need to clamor for that even if the votes aren't there—yet.

ICE was going to get its allocated $75 billion. All a shutdown would do is impact DHS’s other activities, such as FEMA and the Coast Guard.

Dems should have been sounding this loudly to let us know about existing constraints so we could set our expectations.

Folks, I made an error in a piece I wrote the other day.

Dokoupil's both-sidesing of Jan6 is especially unfortunately given that @macfarlanenews.bsky.social has been relentless on the Jan6 beat.
New from @sulliview.bsky.social:

"The only way out of this hellscape is holding fast to the truth, and remembering the line from George Orwell’s 1984: 'The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.'"
We need hard truths and tough reporting, not 'both-sides-equal' trash
The CBS anchor again embarrasses the network’s legacy. Plus: some examples of journalists who are doing it right

I don’t want to hear any GOP member of Congress, in fact, any member of Congress that is funding these brutal ICE tactics, invoke MLK’s name this holiday weekend.

I have a concrete suggestion in response to Trump and his gestapo’s “f**k you” to the rule of law: “Democratic senators and representatives should be flying to Minnesota now and standing together in a show of force and solidarity.”

Donald Trump Hates America
He shows it with his middle finger, literally, and by his daily attacks against American interests and our people. He must be defeated.

Dear Media, no-one ‘presented’ the Nobel prize to Trump - he didn’t earn it. She offered a shiny trinket as a bribe to his toddler self in the hopes of gaining support. And devalued the Nobel in the process.

Maybe if we embraced alternative energy, we wouldn’t have to keep going to war for oil?

I am so tired of him doing illegal, immoral, unconstitutional things in our name, with our tax dollars.

I honestly don’t give a flying whatever about the Epstein Files. I want the victims to have justice, but I don’t think releasing this stuff in tranches does that. And I care more that we have an administration hellbent on destroying our country. With no guardrails.

I’m tired of all of the scary clowns in this Circus Cabinet. Can we at least get some of the happy entertaining ones in the New Year?

While the Vanity Fair article(s) on Susie Wiles and the chaos cabinet is full of salacious stuff, I’d like to remind the press that there are bigger issues in our country, including recession, unemployment, mass shootings, and severe weather issues that should get more time than the VF details.

@markhalperin.skystack.xyz Since you are on a reputation reclamation tour, it was incumbent upon you in this moment to remind Megyn Kelly of the law, and the fact that traditionally America has been more morally correct here.
Putting aside for a moment that this is a disgusting bloodthirsty rant, does the law matter at all? Do they care AT ALL about what the law says?

Has anyone asked Trump where the Resolute Desk is or why it’s at Mar-a-Lago?

The message behind “quiet, piggy” was not subtle.
I decide who speaks. I decide what truth is. I decide whose pain persists and whose gets erased. I decide what women are allowed to ask me. I decide which crimes survive and which get swallowed in smoke.

If you come for the King, you don’t miss. Senate Dems had the arrow notched, aimed, and chose to shoot it deliberately into the air. And it will be the worse for all of us because of that.

Some thoughts on the CR/minibus.

1 The Dems negotiating with Rs were not freelancing. They coordinated with Sen Schumer. A few were ready to give in on day one, others worked to maximize appropriations wins.

Those voting for the 'deal' are the ones furthest away from electoral consequences.

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.
