BREAKING: GENIUS! Sen. Chris Van Hollen suggests restoring Affordable Care Act subsidies by gutting ICE’s bloated $200 billion in funding.

Two birds, one stone…

“We need to respond to the economic pain people are feeling. And that means a commitment, for example, to immediately pass legislation to make sure that none of us pay one dime, not one in higher electric costs, to build data centers for the richest AI companies on the planet,” Van Hollen said on “Pod Save America.”

“It means dealing with healthcare,” he continued. “And I mean, yes, of course, we need to reverse the damage the Trump administration has done with respect to their cuts to Medicaid. And by the way, we should claw back the approximately $200 billion in ICE funding that they banked last time.”

He also called for restoring the ACA subsidies that Republicans refused to extend in 2025.

We can’t think of a more elegant solution to this. Democrats are determined to undo Trump’s healthcare cuts and stem the deluge of financial stress, suffering, and death that those cuts are inflicting on the American people.

At the same time, we must abolish ICE. It’s a rogue paramilitary organization whose masked agents are terrorizing and murdering people in the streets. They’re trampling civil liberties and their detention centers are rife with sexual abuse. The last thing they deserve is another dollar of funding from taxpayers. That money should go towards saving lives, not ending them.

“But on healthcare, we need to go beyond that. We need to make sure that we deal with the system where premiums are going up and co-pays are going up and up and up,” added Van Hollen. “I ultimately believe we need to get to Medicare for All, but we certainly need to begin moving toward a public option. And finally, political corruption, because if you look at the results, it was interesting. If you look at what was on people's mind, number one was the economy and costs, but protecting our democracy was right up there. And these things are connected.”

There are growing calls among the Democratic base for Van Hollen to contest Chuck Schumer for the Senate Majority Leadership to empower a more progressive voice after the blue tsunami.

What do you think?

I must’ve missed the Bible verse where Jesus said to go on a national book tour, grift in His name, and let the people you’re supposed to serve go hungry.

[Lucas Sanders 👊🏽🔥🇺🇸 @LucasSa56947288]

Quick question!

Who would you prefer to be Senate majority leader?

(A: Sen. Chris Van Hollen
(B: Sen. Chuck Schumer

[August @SaftyInNumbers]

@LucasSa56947288 Definitely A. Sen. Van Hollen is a fighter.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

ABSOLUTELY INSANE.

THE HOUSE DEMOCRATIC ****WHIP**** WAS THROWING THE FUNDRAISING BASH THAT KEPT DEMOCRATS FROM VOTING TO SEND THE HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT VOTE TO THE FLOOR.

A reminder that I had to limit this to 75 because I ran out of column space.

[Dr. Dave @drdave1999]

Chuck Schumer has no killer instinct at all. He wouldn’t step on a bug in the kitchen; he’d just send it a stern note and try to reach an understanding with it.

He has what you might call a ‘poodle instinct.’ He barks occasionally, but he won’t protect you against anything.

Hakeem Jeffries is limp-noodle weak.

BREAKING: HELL YES! Rep. Robert Garcia pounds the war drums to go "all f*cking in" on investigating Trump and holding these MAGA criminals accountable.

You can't make bipartisan peace with fascists...

"Todd Blanche is threatening now, the Attorney General of the United States of America, is threatening to investigate Democrats who promise to hold the administration accountable. Do you see this as a threat? And how do you intend to deal with this?" progressive commentator Jennifer Welch asked Garcia during his appearance on her podcast.

"Well, it is a threat. There's no question. I'm not new to this," replied the congressman. "Year and a half ago, Donald Trump and his DOJ sent me a letter that they were opening an investigation on me because I was critical of Elon Musk, if you can believe that. And so I, you know, put that word in the garbage where it needed to go."

"But at the end of the day, this is a moment for Democrats, we have to have the courage to stand up to this authoritarian government, we have to have the courage to take on Donald Trump and know that he is going to use every tool at his disposal," he continued.

"In this case, the DOJ, the Department of Justice, the FBI, God knows what else his billionaire friends and buddies and donors to go after us to intimidate us," Garcia went on. "But we're not going to be and I'm certainly not going to be intimidated. We're not going to be intimidated."

Blanche absurdly stated on Sunday that if Democratic lawmakers use their legally enshrined powers to investigate this administration, they could be violating the law. That's how corrupt and perverse our Justice Department has become under Trump. The Attorney General is now stating that investigating crimes is a crime. It's a desperate bid at intimidation from an administration that knows its days are numbered now that Democrats have subpoena power.

"And yes, they're going to throw everything they have at us," said Garcia, who will be heading the House Oversight Committee. "They're going to try to destroy our character, they're going to try to demean us and try to, quite frankly, send out their their MAGA universe to come after us. But we are going to stand strong because we have the people behind us. And more importantly, this is a moment in this country, where if you're not willing to put yourself in the way of danger, if you're not willing to kind of put yourself and know that there is real risks, this isn't the right job."

"This is not like being in Congress at any other moment in history," he said. "And I think I tell my colleagues this all the time. We are we are withstanding right now in between a complete takeover by authoritarian dictators and oligarchs that are trying to raid the Treasury raid the American taxpayer destroy the world order. "

"And we just so happen to be the ones in Congress at this moment, as if we're not all fucking in. Yeah, then then then what the hell are we doing?" Garcia asked.

We couldn't agree more with Congressman Garcia. Americans showed up in historic numbers at the polls last Tuesday to vote blue because we're tired of being ruled over by a blatantly criminal President and his henchmen. Democrats in Congress can't just make nice with these monsters. They have to deliver on their promises and pull back the curtain on all of the corruption.

This is, without caveat, the most lawless White House in American history. It's time to bring it crashing down.

Please ❤️ and share to urge Democrats to stand with Garcia!

Do you think it's inappropriate to laugh at the tomb of the unknow... like Pete Hegsetg was caught doing on tape today?

He looks like he's about to take off in his jetpack.

One would assume that the Defense Secretary and his senior aides would know how to conduct themselves at one of the most sacred war memorials in the US.

[😱 Scary Larry 😱 🇺🇦✊🏻🇺🇸🗽 @aintscarylarry]

If you have to be reprimanded to be respectful at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, you’re a worthless fucking pile of dogshit. And since we’re talking about drunk-ass racist as fuck Pete Hegseth and his gaggle of Nazi dipshits, that totally fucking tracks.

[Ty Webb @Ty___Webb]

Get this asshole away from any kind of leadership position. He’s no leader. @RepJeffries

[Kenny BooYah! 🖖🏾 @KwikWarren]

Props to that soldier. And shame on Hegseth and his party of losers.
