Michigan’s Senate race will help decide the majority. The Republican in it just took money from a pardoned foreign agent who pushed China’s request inside the Trump administration. Nobody else reported it.

The Trump admin is moving forward on plans to impose financial penalties on Americans in default on their federal student loans and hire private debt collectors to go after them. The plans are unlikely to be announced until after the midterms.

Last year, Trump and 98% of elected GOP enacted the biggest Medicaid cuts in history, bigger even than Reagan's Medicaid cuts. By 2034, 7.5 million people will lose their Medicaid because of the cuts. Clinics are already closing and hospitals are already cutting services, citing OBBBA as a reason.

Huh. Apparently Katie Miller deleted this tweet that I had the foresight to screencap. Turns out I can TOO make things go viral on Xitter, even.

Great pet portrait taking

🚨Holy shit, brilliant animators just made a devastating ad against Republican corruption: “A massive flood of money… impacts every part of our democracy.” Trump’s corruption is putting our democracy, our rights, and our future up for sale. VOTE. #CostOfTrumpsCorruption

President Trump’s $90 Medicare rebate rolls out, but millions aren’t eligible. Critics see a political stunt.

Of recent interest here in Minnesota is that ICE is releasing detainees to satisfy Habeas requests, and then immediately detaining again. This really ought to be national news.

This Congress is on track to pass the fewest bills in more than half a century. Here are 3 reasons why.

The hearing comes after Boelter's defense team changed its strategy from arguing double jeopardy to suggesting reasonable force while attempting a citizen's arrest.

Vance Boelter is an absolute ghoul of a human being. My guess is that he feels if he can avoid prosecution in Minnesota, he can get Trump to pardon him for the Federal assassination charges. Stunning how few Republicans have condemned his legal farce. www.startribune.com/john-yvette-...

I just donated to help SPIDER-MAN, who took on nazi scumbags trying to invade Minneapolis again. Arrested by our local cops (boooo) who were diligently defending their racist turd pals. Let’s help good ol’ Webhead with his defense! (PS I can vouch for the GoFundMe creator) gofund.me/6f36a1ac1

ICE just arrested a 5-year-old on his way to a soccer game in Austin. His name is Liam, just like the little boy from Minnesota. He should be in kindergarten this week. Instead he's in a trailer prison in the desert. Release Liam. Release these kids. Close the Dilley children’s prison.
