🚨 JUST IN: Chuck Schumer has ONCE AGAIN voted NO on re-opening DHS, all but guaranteeing the funding bill will FAIL, and TSA chaos will get worse

Everyone standing in those 3 hour TSA lines should pass that time by repeatedly calling Chuck Schumer's office:

[Rep. Anna Paulina Luna @RepLuna]

Do not let Republicans fool you. If the SAVE Act (or SAVE America Act) is not attached to an appropriations bill, it will fail as a standalone measure in the Senate. That is why any appropriations package coming out of the House MUST include it. I am fully aware that leadership plans to bundle five of the bills together; however, the DHS bill will be a standalone and MUST have the SAVE Act attached.

@SenToddYoung @SenateGOP There are 77 million of us watching this failure in real time.

WOW 🚨 DC Lobbyist exposes the real reason Democrats are keeping the government shutdown is because they’re being paid off “It has to do with dark money from the billion dollar health insurance companies”

Also, even while the federal government is shutdown, the Big Health Insurance Companies are getting funneled our tax money

“I understand why this shutdown is happening because I've been scratching my head, like, why would the Democrats be shutting down the government, depriving federal workers in the military of basically pay in food and then depriving the military of their health care through TRICARE. — It has to do with the f*cking insurance companies.”

“So I found out these people, even Even though the government shut down because of the ACA, their payments every month are coming directly from the Treasury to their bank accounts. So the insurance companies, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Molina, Kaiser, they are getting paid right now, mandatory pay every single month while the federal workers and the military get nothing. And so now it's finally making sense. This has nothing to do with healthcare.

“It has to do with dark money from the billion dollar insurance companies. Because keep in mind, if they lose the ACA credits for next year, they're not going to get any of that money. They won't get any of that money. So even though the tax credits are tax credits, what actually happens is these tax credits get paid on behalf of you, the insured, and they go directly to the insurance companies. So that's why the Democrats are fighting so hard on this.

That's nothing. It has to do with people's premiums. It has to do with the fucking insurance companies not getting billions and billions and billions of dollars in January and next year.”

“It's about the billion dollar insurance companies. And so everyone in, at least the talking points of the Democrats are like, oh, the premiums are going to go up. Why don't you hold the insurance companies accountable?

These are not market rates. They're setting the premiums. They're the ones that are deciding to keep human beings without Health Care. That has nothing to do with what the government does. — They own the hospitals, and the providers are setting. These obscene rates for procedures. And so then they're making money off of the hospitals. This entire shutdown has nothing to do with health care and everything to do with the billion dollar corporations United Health Care, Aetna, Kaiser, Molina, they are the ones that are keeping the government shut down right now”

Democrats are lying about free healthcare for illegal immigrants.

This year Gavin Newsom spent $9.5 billion on it. Next year: $12 billion. $900 per household in California.

I will end this Democrat attack on working families. Here are the facts:

🚨At Joel Salatin’s farm, animals thrive without antibiotics, chlorine baths, vaccines, or pesticides. Lab tests show his chickens carry only a fraction of the bacteria found in factory birds.

So why isn’t this food everywhere?

Because red tape makes it nearly impossible for small farmers to compete. It’s endless licenses, paperwork, permits, and regulations, Salatin says. He found he needed a $50K septic system even if he just wanted to sell a few dozen homemade pot pies.

The result? Factory farming wins, and America is less healthy, he says.

@OCSheriffBarnes @RepYoungKim Are you really supporting mass amnesty? Does this represent your constituents??

[toddstarnes @toddstarnes]

Jasmine Crockett wants you to think she's from the hood - that she grew up on the streets. The exact opposite is true. She attended an exclusive day school where tuition is nearly $35,000 per year. She also attended Rhodes College, a private school where tuition is nearly $55,000 per year. She's cosplaying a gangsta.

Having lived in Silicon Valley for 20+ years and founded and sold an AI company, I've seen firsthand how we rely on H-1B to fill grueling, unglamorous coding jobs. These jobs are essential, and we need capable people doing them. But the system needs an overhaul.

🧵 Here's why:

[Futurist™ @americasgreat]

BREAKING URGENT SHARE URGENT:
Secretary of State Raffensperger of Georgia, who attacked Pres Trump in 2020 over a phone call, is illegally opening 4 NEW election offices in Fulton County, in Dem districts, to accept ballots in violation of the law.

Ryan Germany, former Sec of State Counsel for Georgia, allies with Raffensperger, is supposedly a part of the grand ballot scheme.

These offices can not open. Rep poll watchers can't be organized to watch the vote and machines. It's illegal.

I teared up watching this. It made me so viscerally angry I felt it in my gut.
This woman is emblematic of every educated, leftist woman who climbed the ladder to power & then used it to shit on less fortunate women.
Fuck her for making Ted Cruz a hero because he eviscerates her.

Today Judge Merchan ordered Trump to delete several Truth social posts from his account by 2:15pm.

All posts have been deleted.

BRAZIL SHOULD TERRIFY YOU

Just a day and a half ago, it seemed like things were calming in Brazil. The Folha de São Paulo, the New York Times of Brazil, editorialized against censorship. The head of the Brazilian Bar Association gave a strong statement in support of freedom of expression. And the President of Brazil’s Supreme Court said the conflict between Brazil and X, formerly known as Twitter, was over. “People talk a big game but don’t act on their words,” he said

All of that has once again changed. Yesterday, Brazil’s President Lula called for criminalizing lying. Given that everybody lies, Lula is proposing to give the government the power to arrest anyone he wants. Thousands of Workers Party activists took to X yesterday to demand that I be arrested for things I said during my testimony before the Brazilian Senate. And today, the head of X in Brazil announced they have quit out fear for their safety.

I am not afraid for myself. As I said on X a few days ago, I fear neither the devil nor de Moraes, the Supreme Court justice rapidly turning himself into Brazil’s dictator. I am taking all necessary precautions to ensure that I can leave Brazil safely and without being arrested. You can help by sharing this video and spreading the word about what is happening here.

And yet, what is happening in Brazil terrifies me nonetheless. I love this country and its people and fear that it is on the cusp of totalitarianism. A significant share of the Left wants to incarcerate their political enemies. Respected Brazilian journalists say with a straight face that the government must engage in mass censorship in order to protect democracy. Brazil is everything that George Orwell feared and worse. The Brazilian government appears to view “1984” not as a dystopia to avoid but rather as a guide to a better future.

I would be less worried if Brazil were small and irrelevant, but it’s not. Brazil is the largest and most important nation in Latin America. Just this week, top Brazilian government representatives were in China talking about how China, one of the most totalitarian nations in the world, is a model for Brazil. Brazil is an inspiration for European totalitarians who have weaponized government intelligence agencies to spread disinformation about their political enemies and are implementing a censorship system to control the entire Internet.

The most terrifying part of all of this is the marriage of psychopathic government leaders like Lula and de Moraes with totalitarian activists and voters. Governments have successfully brainwashed a significant percentage of the population into supporting mass censorship. Young adults raised on social media are today more intolerant than the students in China’s Cultural Revolution in China who denounced their teachers and sent them off to work camps to be tortured.

At the same time, people with a mentality no different from the people who ran the Stasi and the Gestapo are in charge of intelligence agencies in Europe and the United States.

Yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives renewed legislation that gives the US government the right to spy on Americans suspected of collaborating with foreign governments. The result will be McCarthyism on steroids. The FBI will be able to spy on any American citizen who dares to criticize the war in Ukraine. The US government will label people who oppose endless wars in Eurasia as “political extremists,” ruining their careers, or worse.

During the rise of Communism and fascism in Europe, many Jews and other persecuted people could flee to the United States. Where will we flee if the United States continues down the road to totalitarianism? Not Europe. Not Brazil. Is any country safe in a world where every movement, transaction, and thought is being monitored?

I keep waiting for the downward spiral to hit bottom, and it never does. I am naturally optimistic, but sometimes, that means I have tended toward wishful thinking. Such wishful thinking is dangerous and irresponsible in moments like this one. So, too, is passivity.

We must act. That starts with standing up to the bullies, all of whom are cowards on the inside. Elon Musk stood up to the bully de Moraes last week and appears to be holding strong. Tonight, he will hold a Spaces with the controversial former president of Brazil, whom the Supreme Court has prevented from running for office again for another eight years.

My colleagues and I are building a new free-speech movement. All of the organizations we used to rely upon to defend human rights, including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and ACLU, have been taken over by totalitarians demanding censorship. We are gathering in London in June. We are starting our own free-speech NGOs around the world.

We can’t do this alone. Please share this post, consider subscribing to my publication, Public, and make a donation. People are risking their lives to defend free speech for all human beings. You don’t need to risk yours, but we desperately need your help. Things won’t calm down until we stand up to the tyrants and remove every one of them from power.

Suppose Donald Trump flips Arizona, Georgia, and Nevada next fall, as current polls all show him doing. Would he win the presidency? Not quite. In fact, if Trump flips those three states and no others, he loses by exactly ONE electoral vote.

Why? Nebraska.

Despite being one of the most Republican states, Nebraska awards its electoral votes by Congressional district instead of winner-take-all. Thanks to this system, Omaha's electoral vote leans blue: Obama won it in 2008, and Biden won it in 2020. He's likely to win it again this year.

California would never do this. New York would never do this. And as long as that's the case, neither should we. This is completely fixable. Nebraska's legislature can act to make sure their state's electoral votes go towards electing the candidate the VAST majority of Nebraskans prefer. There's already a bill ready to go - LB764. All Nebraska has to do is put it up for a vote.

As I write this, the Nebraska legislature is still in session. Nebraskans should call their legislators and their governor to demand their state stop pointlessly giving strength to their political enemies.

Call @TeamPillen and let him know you want this fixed: 402-471-2244
