The Republican Party's relationship with healthcare is simple: take it from the people who need it most. Medicare: $536 billion cut. Part D: subsidy ended. Medicaid: gutted. ACA: unaffordable. They have never once expanded access. #RepublicansCutMedicare
The Senate unanimously agreed that Ghislaine Maxwell should not receive a pardon or any other clemency. The House must do the same.
Ranking Member Robert Garcia, Ranking Member Jamie Raskin, and I are demanding Speaker Johnson bring a resolution opposing clemency for Maxwell to a vote.
GOOD!
"WASHINGTON (AP) — The labor union representing Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service workers asked a judge Thursday to block a sweeping tax audit immunity agreement for Donald Trump, arguing it would force career employees to choose between following a political order and abiding by the law.

Trump is using the power of the government regulatory state to coerce companies into turning over huge ownership stakes in their businesses to the federal government while calling Democrats communists.
.@sbg1 on Bill Cassidy once again choosing to fall in line with Trump when his vote mattered: “There is no such thing as a Republican moderate...because the Republican establishment are the handmaidens of this assault on America's norms and traditions.”
TAKE A BOW, AMERICA- YOU WERE CONNED: They tried to hide the June jobs report. Now we see why: 57,000 jobs, the weakest since February. July just dropped: we lost 23,000 jobs.
But let's talk about what they actually care about. Elon Musk paid $0 in federal taxes in 2018. Tesla just paid $0 federal tax on $5.7 billion in U.S. income. Trump made $1.4 billion in crypto from the White House.
His sons are tied to $6.3 billion in Pentagon contracts with inside info he admitted they have. He added $7.8 trillion to the debt his first term, another $2.9 trillion since January.
Trillions for war and billionaire tax cuts. What do we get? Public schools defunded. Federal workers fired. Jobs vanishing.
Biden came into office with 142.9 million jobs. He left with 159 million. That's 16 million jobs in four years. His last two months alone: 450,000 jobs.
Y'all, this isn't policy. This is a heist.
And 2026 and 2028 are when we take it back.
Senator @BillCassidy is the epitome of the mediocre white man. A doctor who voted to confirm a psychotic antivaxxer to run HHS.
To reward him, Donald Trump kicked his ass to the curb.
Despite this humiliation, he rubber-stamps a pedophile protector to be Attorney General.
Phillip: Under Biden, the job picture was actually much better than it is right now. That's the reality.
McGowan: People really are feeling the actual pain. But Donald Trump is saying, we're living in the golden age. Does Donald Trump even really understand what's going on? Does he not understand the economy is bad? Does he not understand that he's losing the war?
Todd Blanche met with convicted child sex trafficker and Epstein confidant Ghislaine Maxwell for over NINE HOURS, and secured a transfer for her to a luxury, minimum security Club Fed.
Todd Blanche ALSO met with some of the survivors of Jeffrey Epstein for 90 minutes, told them to "get to the point," and gave them NOTHING.
ANY U.S. Senator who votes to confirm Todd Blanche is saying they approve of Ghislaine Maxwell and the pedo protector who cut a cushy deal for her.
Make sure you hold those Senators accountable for their vote in November with YOUR vote.
❌Mishandling the Epstein files
❌Targeting the president's enemies
❌ Creating slush funds for cop beaters and sham tax settlements for the President
None of this was enough for Senate Republicans to stop Blanche's nomination.
The President will continue sending us unfit nominees if we don’t demand better.
Todd Blanche having his conformation vote at 4:00 AM tells you everything you need to know about how Republicans in Congress operate. They reserve their most toxic moves for the dead of night.
New Mexico's AG asked the Justice Department for the Epstein files ten times.
Ten. Times.
Ignored or denied, every single one.
So Wednesday he sued them.
