I just took a staged ‘tour’ of the Everglades internment camp today with my colleagues.

Despite being sanitized, it was clear: This place needs to be shut the hell down. They're abusing human beings in cages.

The floods ripped through Texas on July 4.

On July 5, FEMA received 3000 calls from survivors. 1% were unanswered.

That night, Trump/Noem fired the people who answer the calls.

On July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls. 65% unanswered.

July 7: 85%.

Sick.

Check out the part where the White House says they have zero tolerance for violence against law enforcement. They left out a footnote: Except for pardoning people who did that on J6.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.

They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Walz: When did government get to tell you how many dolls your child has? Government just big enough to fit in your bedroom, your womb, and apparently now in your toy chest.

Jamie Dimon says the *best case* scenario for the US is now a recession.

Cool, cool. From the best economy in the world to a self-inflicted recession in 4 months.

Gotta be some kind of record.

"Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was included, the newly revealed one was created by Hegseth. Named “Defense | Team Huddle,” it included his wife and about a dozen other people.... He used his private phone, not his government one, to access the Signal chat."

Mohsen Mahdawi of White River Junction, Vermont was illegally detained by ICE during what was supposed to be the final step in his citizenship process.

Mr. Mahdawi, a legal resident of the US, must be afforded due process under the law and immediately released from detention.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

Casar: One of the most important things I learned is how so many of the most right-wing elected officials break things, do not want services to work, and then campaign on them being broken in order to gain political power.

The only thing standing between Donald Trump and his authoritarian dream is the courts. But to defeat him, we need lawyers willing to litigate against him. Trump is trying to intimidate lawyers and law firms to stop fighting.

At least for me, it won't work. I wear his scorn like a badge of honor.

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

About half of all births are covered by Medicaid.

Over a third of all children are covered by Medicaid.

More than half of all nursing home residents are covered by Medicaid.

Republicans in Congress are making a big mistake targeting these families’ health care to pay for tax cuts for the rich.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security.

Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."
Elon Musk says he wants to “eliminate” programs like Social Security and Medicare: “Entitlements... That’s the big one to eliminate”

Around the world, people are dying as a direct result of Trump’s cuts to USAID.

Disease outbreaks and starvation deaths are already increasing due to Trump’s malicious cuts.

The “ripple effects” of Trump’s drive to shut down the U.S. Agency for International Development are being felt…
