“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

There have been plenty of horrendous days for America and today is no exception. What a horrific, sadistic, and stupid bill. I have nothing to express but anger and sorrow at this moment.

Mike Johnson: "The reconciliation bill was a big, giant leap forward, but we're gonna do this again. We're gonna have a second reconciliation package in the fall, and a third in the spring of next year."

Destroy the little bit of a safety net we still provide as you give more money to those who already have it, all while giving unprecedented funding to federal law enforcement in the midst of a president seeking to unconstitutionally and illegally use federal law enforcement. What could go wrong?

What, exactly, are we celebrating tomorrow? Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy? Our new concentration camps? Our dying economy? Our ditching due process? Our corruption? Our broken legislature? Our corrupt SCOTUS? Our ridiculous buffoon president? #FourthOfJuly

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

The latest state budget is disastrous for WI. While the average homeowner will see their property taxes go up by over $400 and our public schools got $0 in new general aids, the top-spending lobbying organization in the state - the Wisconsin Hospital Association - got $1 billion for their members.

Benjamin Ryan, one of the authors, got super upset with me when I said he did not actually have a good defamation case for being put on a blocklist and melted down and flounced off.

You know, when I heard that all of our personal data had been hacked, I didn't expect the first major use of it to be the NYT trying to fuck over Zohran but maybe I'm naive www.nytimes.com/2025/07/03/n...

We can’t afford to give people Medicaid or food… but we can do parades and UFC fights for dear leader. America is a fucking third world joke 🤦🏽‍♂️

BREAKING: Trump announces a UFC fight with 25,000 people attending on the grounds of the White House for America's 250th birthday next year. Note: The CEO of UFC, Dana White donated $1 million to “America First Action,” a pro-Trump Super PAC.

I’m sure Trump’s new plan of allowing employers in certain industries to decide whether their workers will get deported or not will lead to lovely working conditions and fair wages.

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

How grotesque. The Republican reconciliation bill cuts nutrition programs for hungry kids in order to give tax breaks to billionaires. Good luck to my Republican colleagues in explaining the morality of that to their constituents.

The Republican reconciliation bill is a disaster. Instead of slashing Medicaid and throwing 16 million people off of the health care they have, why don’t we do what every other wealthy nation does. GUARANTEE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL AS A HUMAN RIGHT.
