Early this morning, Republicans used their Senate majority to force through a budget bill that gives $70 billion to ICE.

Instead of focusing on lowering costs, they’re pouring taxpayer dollars into an agency that has brutalized, dehumanized, and killed Americans in our streets.

Screenshot of a Bulwark (@BulwarkOnline) tweet quoting Sen. Raphael Warnock telling RFK Jr. that he is "dangerous to the American public," should be fired, and if not fired should "have the decency to resign," adding "You're way in over your head." The embedded video shows Warnock speaking at a Senate hearing table with nameplates reading "Mr. Welch" and "Mr. Warnock."

Yes, read that dangerous nut job RFK Jr. to filth, Sen. Warnock!

I love seeing the Georgia Women’s Tennis Team getting the recognition they so deserve . . .

Quite literally none of this math is accurate

What is ICE Air? Learn more about ICE’s massive, secretive and cruel air operation, which companies are profiting off of it, and what you can do to stop it.

If you’re like, “Wait, everyone is shackled on ICE flights?! Wait, there are 50 ICE flights a day?! Wait, they’re sending people to countries they’ve never been to?!” I am begging you to please read my ICE Air FAQ. 🙏 gillianbrockell.com/what-is-ice-...

Asleep at the wheel.

Trump: "I'm the one who kept it closed. We have total control of the Strait of Hormuz and it will open when Iran makes a deal."

"What do you say to the American People questioning how long this will take?"

"You're such a disgrace. How many years was Vietnam? I took Iran out militarily in 4 weeks."

Palace coup, anyone?

This isn’t a policy disagreement. This is a grown man, confirmed to oversee American healthcare, who does not understand percentages. And the President of the United States responded with ‘Right.’

Wharton. Ivy League. This is what we’re working with.

Let me correct the record on RFK Jr.’s math lesson:

A drug dropping from $600 → $100 is an 83.33% decrease. Not 600%. Not even close.

For it to be a ‘600% savings,’ the drug would have to cost you -$500 at checkout.

ICYMI, people and organizations tied to Hungarian president Viktor Orban’s former regime have been deeply involved with NatCon, the Thiel-backed conference that elevated both JD Vance and Christian Nationalism in the US. I’ve been collecting receipts. 1/

IRGC doing its own thing?

WarTalk called it.

Michigan court tosses GOP bid to disenfranchise overseas voters Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (D) cheered the ruling for rejecting a “disgraceful, coordinated attack against eligible Michigan voters.”

💥 NEW: A Michigan court just shut down the GOP’s latest attempt to strip voting rights from Americans abroad.

Yet another loss for their growing campaign against overseas voters.

Things were so normal before he was allowed into politics…..

During this press conference, Trump says the U.S. fought the Korean War for seven years.

It's news to the U.S. Army.

The Republicans' “vote-a-rama” wrapped up just after 3:30 a.m., while most of America was still asleep, and resulted in a 50–48 GOP victory to kickstart $70 billion in funding to ICE and Border Patrol. trib.al/Q8xAOMM

The moron just can't shut his fat face.

You are correct.

Trump Has Already Spent at Least $4.7 Billion Attacking Latin America It’s not cheap to attack Venezuela and capture its president or conduct dozens of strikes on civilian boats.

Starbucks makes billions in profits, and their CEO makes 6,666x what the average barista does. It’s next-level corporate greed.

I actually don't think everyone knows this.

Indeed a great story Anne. Would love to see an update on the latest developments. Please post it here when and if you do. Thanks.

“Russia can sustain extremely high levels of casualties and losses in human lives. They don’t care about people’s lives,” a Ukrainian officer told me. However, “it is painful for them to lose money.”

Photo of an empty row of seats on the Majority (GOP) side of the Senate Budget Cmte hearing room, with Russell Vought in a chair answering a question from the Minority (Democratic) side of the seating room. Only two GOP staffers appear to have stuck around.

Seems like the GOP didn’t wanna stick around and here the rest of what Russell Vought had to say 🤷🏻‍♀️
