This is just so stupid and pointlessly cruel
The Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to block transgender and non-binary people from choosing passport sex markers that align with their gender identity. ( https://t.co/4Gz3ttbrGA)

PHILLIP: Republicans are saying that Chuck Schumer is afraid of you. Is he? AOC: I don't think so. Sen. Schumer and I have worked together. I think Republicans are afraid of me and they project their fear onto him. So they're just telling on themselves when they say that.

If you are in this group (around 200k household and up) social democracy is not meant to improve your life in a personal financial sense. You must accept you are in the group that has to pay (probably a lot more) so others can improve their lives!

If Republicans think compromise and consensus are important (and thus the filibuster) then they need to compromise. If they don’t, if only power and the majority matter, then nuke it. Make a decision either way;
Hassett: So the president has put something on the table(nuking the filibuster) that hopefully the Democrats recognize the filibuster has been there since the beginning of the senate and that they are threatening our traditions

(1) This is not totally reasonable and acceptable (2) If you don’t want to live next to your new neighbor, you’re free to sell your house and move elsewhere
Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

Trump’s the first-ever president to let people go hungry during a shutdown. Republicans control the White House, the House, and the Senate. Americans don’t want excuses. They want health care they can afford and food to feed their families.
Mike Johnson: "President Trump has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that if there is any way to fund these programs that are drying up, he will do it. If there was any way to fund SNAP during the Democratic shutdown, you can be assured that your commander in chief would do it."

Pritzker this afternoon: "One thing we learned during COVID is that remote learning really has a deleterious effect on kids' ability to get the kind of education that they need & so we want to do everything we can to keep kids in school where they are safer" than on the streets.
Mayor Brandon Johnson urges Pritzker to consider allowing CPS remote learning due to ICE arrests

We don’t blow up boats off Miami because 25% of the time suspicion is wrong. We shouldn’t do it off Venezuela either. These are small outboards with no fentanyl and no path to Florida. We can’t just kill indiscriminately because we are not at war. It’s summary execution!

Disgusting pieces of filth. Republicans are stabbing the poor and middle class in the back screaming “Why have Democrats done this?!?!?!?” and expect us to be too stupid to see their game
Scalise: What is there to offer to a party who is so morally corrupt and bankrupt they are willing to sell out the American people because they are either scared of their base or want to just keep getting low dollar donation from donors around the country who are rooting for

Easy solutions are usually neither. Jason, like Trump, just hopes you don’t use your brain and can’t see that.
Translation: we want fentanyl dealers causing 3,000 overdoses a year, unsafe subways and home invasions These socialist democrats are idiots… just say “thanks for the help, please put the national guard on these 17 corners and 12 BART stations — what took you so long!” Trump

I understand this gets MAGA hard but the number of independents and soft right voters who don't find this repugnant is really pathetic. People who are not worthy of our heritage as americans.

He's declaring new taxes and canceling federal funds without consent of Congress, siccing the DOJ on critics, abducting people with masked secret police & sending troops into cities that protest him. I don't care if he won 50 states. These are actions of a king, not a president.
I don’t understand how Trump is a King when he won every single swing state, the electoral college and popular vote in a democratic election.

if you complained about online lefties being unwilling to admit that Robinson was on the left I really really hope you'll reflect on the Speaker of the House trying to claim that the most notable act of right wing political violence in decades was a false flag
The speed and completeness with which this trivially debunked "274 FBI agents in the crowd" lie has spread speaks to how little the right institutionally cares about truth. Trump posting it is one thing because he's not tethered to reality, but this is the Speaker of the House.

Trump DOJ shutting down investigation into apparently quite clear Homan bribery is bad on its own. But it's best to pair it with Trump firing the US attorney in eastern Virginia so that he can get someone to bring charges against Letitia James. Banner week for DOJ

While we're all distracted by the domestic sideshow, Trump is sending the military out to kill people he says are "terrorists", in violation of US and international law. No wonder people at the Pentagon are checking in with their lawyers. https://t.co/cKC1APg8OC

Trump is treating the military like his personal mercenaries.

Casar: "We are in the biggest free speech crisis this country has faced since the McCarthy era. The murder of Charlie Kirk was a horrific crime, and it's clear that Trump wants to hijack that horrific crime to silence anyone who disagrees with the president about any issue."
