It's midnight in Washington, and in case you're catching up... So far tonight, Republicans have blocked amendments that would: – Remove tariffs hurting families – Protect disaster response and recovery - Secure Social Security benefits - Preserve federal lands (Thread 🧵)

Netanyahu has not allowed any food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing, killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given Gaza a chance to live again. NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.

If you're not in the US, avoid coming. We are not a ally for now. Hopefully that changes in the future. </3

“Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair.” Whatever happened to #abolishICE? It needs to be abolished. This is torture.

WE LITERALLY DISAPPERED / KIDNAPPED / BLACK BAGGED SOMEONE. The fact that so little care is insane. #freekahlil

Senator Bernie Sanders@sanders.senate.gov

No, Mr. President, you cannot illegally arrest and detain legal US residents because of their political views or opinions. In America, we have a little something called the First Amendment. Throwing protesters in jail is yet another step on the path to authoritarianism.

When you hear Trump & his supporters defend the detention of a Green Card holder by pretending to care about 1) antisemitism on campus, and 2) trespassing on college property, remember that Trump 1) hosted a Holocaust denier for dinner & 2) pardoned violent insurrectionists.

The SSA bans workers from reading a WIRED article about their own working conditions. If you need proof of a broken system, this is it. Transparency is key, but apparently, not if you're the one suffering. #Censorship #SSA #WorkersRights

WIRED@wired.com

New internet restrictions at the embattled SSA have cut off access to WIRED, along with other “general news” websites like The Washington Post and The New York Times.

How did we become the axis of evil?

Amazing how we have pivoted away from being a leader…. The draft G7 statement seen by business shows the US pushed to remove the word “sanctions,” as well as wording citing Russia’s “ability to maintain its war” in Ukraine by replacing it with “earn revenue.” t.co/n32Txr573v

The Oval Office ambush will go down in history. In the US, it will be written as our President standing up to someone exploiting our country. The rest of the world will see it correctly—as two bullies in a public spectacle of ridicule, providing an excuse to withdraw support for defending democracy.

Cowardness is allowing other people to die because you're scared of losing your fucking congress/senate seat. Do Better or let someone who will.

“Frightened for the safety of their families.” America, 2025.

​Trump's suspension of military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine, especially after defending Putin's actions, is a betrayal of an ally fighting for its sovereignty. This not only undermines Ukraine's defense but also emboldens Russian aggression. Such actions are deeply disheartening.

Apparently it's patriotic to pay more. 'merica I guess?

Mehdi Hasan@mehdirhasan.bsky.social

Imagine if Joe Biden had reposted a liberal pundit saying ‘shut up about gas prices’ in 2022. It would have led the news, all of the news, for days, weeks, on end.

It's crazy that they ran on lower prices, then now it's all about paying higher prices to be patriotic. More like idiotic.

Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen.bsky.social

Trump’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just told Americans to stop demanding things like “access to cheap goods” because it’s “not the essence of the American dream.”

​Prioritizing mental health is essential. With telehealth services, you can access professional support privately, without sharing your mental health history with friends or family. Don't let stigma prevent you from seeking help—you deserve to feel good. #MentalHealthMatters #EndTheStigma #SelfCare

Some federal workers are going back to work. The USDA has been ordered to temporarily give over 5,000 workers their jobs back. Dozens of CDC scientists have been reinstated after being illegally fired. The National Science Foundation has rehired half of the workers it fired.
