This is the Big Beautiful Bill’s impact:
💰$1T+ in tax cuts for the top 1%
✂️$1T+ slashed from Medicaid & food stamps
📉80% of families worse off (with Trump's tariffs)
💵Next year, a family making $50K will get < $2 a day from tax cuts, while the top 0.1% will get +$300K
So far this morning, Trump has...

• Threatened to commit war crimes against Iran
• Suspended trade with Spain
• Accused the 'Islamic Republic of Japan' of launching 111 missiles
• Referred to Zelenskyy as 'President Putin'
• Said he is number one on 'Tic Tack'
• Claimed prices are down on everything
• Suggested the U.S. should have carpet-bombed Khomenei's funeral
• Mentioned taking over Kharg Island
• Removed Syria from the State Sponsors of Terrorism list
• Praised China, Russia, and Turkey while disparaging NATO

BREAKING: A federal judge in New York has ordered President Trump to pay a $5 million judgment plus almost $800,000 in interest owed to E. Jean Carroll after a jury held him liable for sexually abusing and defaming her. https://t.co/jyD7DF3EH0
😳 Trump just flubbed his way through his meeting with Zelenskyy, at various points referring to the "Islamic Republic of Japan," repeatedly calling Zelenskyy "President Putin," and railing against the "JCPOC"
Here's the blooper reel:
Keep posting this so people don’t forget how truly bad this event was.
Don’t let people gaslight you into thinking it was peaceful and worthy of 1500+ pardons and slush fund payoffs.
This is fundamentally un-American.
The relentless pursuit by the Department of Justice of one citizen at the demand of the president, because of the president’s personal animosity, is something our country has never seen.
Tinpot dictators and their henchmen do this.
The FCC is now threatening ABC's broadcast licenses, days after Donald Trump and Melania Trump demanded they fire Jimmy Kimmel.
This is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.
Mr. President: Read the Constitution. Freedom of speech is the First Amendment for good reason.
A Perry Mason moment here between AOC and Lee Zeldin.
After Lee Zeldin denies meeting with Bayer to discuss litigation the company was facing, AOC presents visitor logs and emails from Zeldin’s senior advisor stating that Zeldin would be meeting with the Bayer CEO to discuss “legal/judicial issues.”
“In this internal email, it says that Bayer was specifically seeking and discussing Supreme Court action, it would want an update on EPA’s regulatory review, and that, interestingly, Bayer will provide a small thanks for updating the glyphosate webpage from the EPA and work on MAHA.”
In a stunning moment, King Charles shames Congressional Republicans who oppose aiding Ukraine, recalling how NATO allies responded to the U.S. on 9/11.
Over 4,000 young Americans are alive today who might not be — because of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline we built together.
The grief of losing a child is something that no parent should ever have to know.
We launched 988 in 2022. We invested in it. We fought for it. And now the data is in: an 11% drop in youth suicide. Thousands of kids who picked up the phone instead of giving up.
In my view, that’s what government is supposed to do.
If we didn't have a maniac as secretary of defense, a toady as secretary of state, and a nobody as chief of staff, they'd be spending today making sure the military checks in with them before obeying any orders from Trump, and getting in touch w/ Congress to arrange impeachment.
Pope Leo XIV responded to President Trump’s social media post saying:
“I do not look at my role as being political, a politician. I don’t want to get into a debate with him. I don’t think that the message of the Gospel is meant to be abused in the way that some people are doing.”
I doubt Pope Leo XIV will lose any sleep over this, before he begins his pilgrimage to Africa tomorrow. But the rest of us should. Because it is unhinged, uncharitable and unchristian. Is there no bottom to this moral squalor?
These are not the words of a sane person.
Calling for the elimination of a civilization is a war crime.
As I’ve repeatedly said, our military must only follow lawful orders.
Every American of good conscience must repudiate this.
It is not possible for Trump to do most of this madness without the cheerleading and/or acquiescence of Republicans in Congress. We must vote as many of them out of office as we can.
