By passing this extreme $70B immigration bill, @HouseGOP caved to Trump yet again. In the last year and a half alone, Republicans have unilaterally given Trump’s lawless DHS nearly a quarter TRILLION dollars with no restrictions, guardrails or oversight.

@HouseDemocrats asked for basic safeguards to ensure transparency, oversight, and accountability of ICE’s inhumane, lawless actions.

Yet the GOP chose loyalty to Trump over responsibility to the American people. Because that’s what they always do.

[PBS News @NewsHour]

A federal judge in Boston struck down President Donald Trump's hefty fee on H-1B visas for highly skilled foreign workers.

U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin on Monday called the $100,000 fee an unlawful tax that Congress never authorized.

Before Trump announced the charge last September, employers typically paid between $2,000 and $5,000 in fees.

The H-1B program was created in 1990 and offers visas to some 85,000 people each year, many involved in the tech sector.

The Trump administration had argued that the program aims to replace, rather than supplement, American workers.

[The Washington Post @washingtonpost]

A Post review shows President Trump built a more male-dominated Cabinet this term, and every departure has been a woman — with a man chosen to replace each of them.

The trend reflects broader dynamics within the GOP, as noted by experts and data. https://t.co/oGDZF99BPp

When Trump was sworn in inflation was 3%. It's currently 4.2%.

This is Donald Trump's economy.

Instead of addressing the economic pain Americans are feeling, the President is doubling down on his reckless tariffs and his war in Iran.

BREAKING: In a stunning admission, Mike Johnson just told reporters that he has plan to cut Medicare and Medicaid after the midterms. We can stop this by making Hakeem Jeffries the next Speaker of the House.

BREAKING: Rep. Ted Lieu DESTROYS Trump's Agriculture Secretary over her insane lie that Joe Biden is to blame for the screwworm outbreak — which is a direct result of DOGE cuts!

Democrats are done playing nice with these liars...

"Dear@SecRollins: You keep getting fact checked for your lies," the congressman wrote on X. "It’s your Administration that cut the Screwworm programs. Also, the life cycle of a Screwworm is 14 to 54 days. The trump Administration has been in office over 500 days. If you can’t stop lying, you need to resign."

Lieu was reacting to a video of Rollins insisting that this new screwworm problem traces "back to the last administration" and Biden's nonexistent "open border policy."

This is yet another blatant example of the Trump administration coming into power, breaking something that they don't understand, and then blaming Biden for the consequences. They are pathologically incapable of taking responsibility for any of their blunders.

"Dear @SecRollins: Did the Screwworm come from the trump Administration’s beef import plan with Argentina?" Lieu wrote in a followup post, boosting a report that Trump signed a trade deal with Argentina that permitted "unrestricted beef imports" from that country despite its screwworm problem.

Screwworms, which devour tissue and can kill cattle, have been detected in a growing number of calves in Texas. One case has been discovered in a dog. The pest had been considered eradicated in the United States for decades, but under Elon Musk's tenure at DOGE, the government slashed preventive measures and funding aimed at hampering the spread of the creature.

Before those cuts, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), spent tax dollars on monitoring and containing the spread of screwworm in Central America. It was one of the most worthwhile government investments on the books, because it helped stop destructive outbreaks like the one we're currently witnessing.

"Trump GUTTED funding for screwworm detection and fired 25 percent of workers whose job it was to monitor the disease," Congressman Shri Thanedar wrote on X.

We know who's to blame here and it's not Joe Biden. It's Donald Trump and Elon Musk, ignorant oligarchs who were so hellbent on slashing spending to pay for more tax cuts for the obscenely rich, that they didn't care what they destroyed in the process.

Please ❤️ and share to demand a full investigation into DOGE!

The Trump administration has sold 1.6 million acres of the Alaskan Wildlife Refuge to oil & gas companies, jeopardizing a critical habitat for the Bearded Seal.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Stephen A. Smith: Trump showed up in New York City last night. Needless to say, what I feared would happen, ended up happening. The Knicks lost. Obviously, I'm blaming him. He disrupted our mojo. The man messed things up. The Knicks haven't won a title since 1973. He knows over the last 53 years we haven't had a moment to celebrate since that period in time. He knows what New Yorkers have been through, and he didn't care.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

The war that Trump claims to have ended 37 times is still happening in Iran tonight.

And MAGA still believes him.

lol.

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

When a Republican doctor has to publicly beg Trump to do something about healthcare costs, you know the crisis is out of control.

Medical bills bankrupt families. Premiums are exploding. Millions risk losing coverage.

Americans are getting sicker, deeper in debt, and one emergency away from financial ruin.

Trump's answer? More cuts.

Perino: Yeah because he made the runoff.

Stephen A Smith: This man comes along and you got to have security details, shops got to be closed, watch parties got to be canceled. All of this stuff that was going on just because Trump wanted to be selfish and show up and disrupt their mojo.

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

Kenny Hesse on Trump: “He’s lied so much throughout his entire tenure in our lives that nobody cares that he’s lying. We can literally prove that you were getting booed. What does it say about the state of our politics that we’re asking the president after the Knicks game about the boos he got?”
