This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”
Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”
Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”
Silence.
The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.
50% of Americans don’t have a passport.
The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.
The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.
This is not voter protection.
This is voter selection.
And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.
That’s the Senate in 2026.
The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M of our tax money, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes, plus another 530 with minor traffic violations.
$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two civilian deaths.
Your tax dollars hard at work 🙄
1. That 1% fee from wealth advisors steals 20% of your portfolio (lifetime)
2. Credit card companies made $170B past year in fees alone
3. You're statistically more likely to climb mount Everest than turn a profit day trading
A new HR changed their company's bereavement policy.
She recognized the way they actually show up is much different than what the policy says.
So she changed it.
From: a max of 5 days for the loss of a child
to: 20 days, regardless of relationship.
The policy calls out 'you decide who you love' like this:
"...applies not only to biological family members but also to those with whom employees share significant emotional bonds, such as close friends or chosen family. Employees are not required to justify their relationship to the deceased beyond a general acknowledgment..."
And non-consecutive.
And flexible over 6 months.
And available to all employees no matter tenure or seniority.
THAT IS CHANGE.
Reporter: The president called you a loser.
Republican Senator Thom Tillis: “I am thrilled about that. That makes me qualified to be homeland security secretary and senior adviser to the president.”
Everyone in America needs to watch this video: To fuck the American people, Trump-loving postmaster Louis DeJoy has changed what a postmarked date means. Listen to this video to learn the insidious consequences and how it's designed to screw you. 😳👇
“Anyone who helps me try to steal an election gets a pardon” is perhaps the most corrupt thing to happen in American history.
That “conservatives” have simply accepted this as the price of admission is the greatest moral and intellectual humiliation.
Just gonna start posting every night that Kay Graham published the second tranche of Pentagon Papers in the middle of an IPO, at the same time Nixon was threatening to pull her FCC licenses.
🚨NEW: "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" just dropped its first response to ABC, FCC chair, and Disney firing Jimmy Kimmel.
Trump ain't sleeping tonight. 🤣
This is a must-watch. 🔥
@ABCNetwork Pulling Kimmel, arguably the most un-American action you’ve ever taken. The “American” should be stripped from American Broadcasting Company. Do better.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is.
This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
Things Republicans believed in before Trump:
-States' Rights
-The Constitution
-The Justice System
-Law and Order
-Freedom of Speech
-Rights
-Capitalism
-Limited Government
-Reducing the Debt
-Russia is America's enemy
-Allies should be defended
Not anymore.
