Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. What's happened since? A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.

The GOP’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” would add $2.3 trillion to the deficit—& trigger $500 BILLION in automatic cuts to Medicare. That’s the price of tax cuts: slashing a program that 68 million seniors & people with disabilities rely on. www.marketwatch.com/story/the-cu... #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky

Medicare. Don’t let them bury that word

I’m tired of the lie that spending needs to be cut to reduce the deficit. It’s not the plan. The CBO said this bill will add trillions to our national debt. It increased only so the very rich can get bigger tax breaks. They are “robbing Peter to pay Paul” to the benefit the rich, not our country.

Just wandering the internets this morning and I see a lot of MAGA mad at two republicans who voted against this tax bill “ they tried to block our tax cut”. Like these people are millionaires. There’s no tax cut for you, silly MAGA.

GOP House big, UGLY bill passed with a 215-214 vote giving billionaires tax breaks, gutting 14 million Americans Medicaid & food assistance! GOP bill can be STOPPED in the Senate if 4 GOP Senators abstain or vote against it! If 1 word is changed, bill goes to the House & can be stopped in the House!

Pay attention to this

Boyle: "This is really the breaking news ... because of the size of the deficits, because of the paygo act, that would trigger sequestration of Medicare, and it would total over $500 billion. The official figure that CBO confirms is $535 billion in cuts to Medicare."

McGovern: "Now of course you don't want anybody to know what you're doing here. It's because you know this bill betrays the people who voted for you...you are intentionally hiding what you are doing...that's what you guys think is big and beautiful: greed, corruption, & tax breaks for billionaires."

Only eight of the most popular media and news websites reported the breaking news yesterday about seven articles of impeachment filed in Congress against Trump. Only four put the story on the landing page- and all four of those were far-right outlets. open.substack.com/pub/rebekahj...

I’m sure this is entertainment for him

Get rid of Hegseth. Problem solved.

More on this: "The changes will leave Hegseth without a chief of staff, deputy chief of staff, or senior adviser in his front office...'There is a complete meltdown in the building, and this is really reflecting on the secretary’s leadership.'" Via Politico

Some North Carolina Republicans are trying to steal an election for the state’s Supreme Court (by changing the rules AFTER they lost) and disenfranchising thousands of voters. Raise your voice on this latest example of partisan cheating—you can influence the outcome. youtu.be/v9BSe6RnxGA
