Trump’s 'One Big Beautiful Bill' Hurts His Supporters the Most:

Republicans Spent Decades Laying the Groundwork for Trump’s 'Big Beautiful Bill,' But You'll Be Surprise Who It Hurts Most | The Root

Republicans have laid the groundwork for this bill for years before it had a name, but the hook is it doesn't just harm poor Black Americans...

The Root

Even if this poll is off some in total, support has shifted towards giving migrants a pathway legal status, an issue that’s actually been fairly popular in the past.

The stupid part is you can’t undo elections and multitudes of Democrats told everyone Trump would deport people, legal or not, criminal or not.

Maybe spending your days hammering Democrats is a bad idea.

No they fucking won’t. It’s one city. Trump is President. Every Republican is tied to a fascist.

Every time there were 12 Republicans running for president, this guy was dead last.

This guy wasn’t even gone as long as the McRib.

‘Big Balls’ Is Now at the Social Security Administration

Edward “Big Balls” Coristine’s placement at the SSA comes after a White House official told WIRED on Tuesday that the 19-year-old had resigned from his position in government.

Trump and the rest of the GOP said explicitly this is what they were going to do, and the one legislative achievement of Trump's first term was tax cuts for the rich.

:::Someone somewhere in their absolute dipshit voice:::

“Kamala would have done the same thing.”

I am going to be honest and tell everyone that I am sick of the word “establishment.” A bunch of online personalities call everyone the "establishment" that has any kind of influence or a large collective of like-minded voters that they can mobilize.

Don't agree with me? You're the "establishment."
Don't back my policies/candidate completely? You're the "establishment." Stubbed your toe? The “establishment.”

It's becoming exhausting. To the point I'm about to mute the word for life.

And by the way, everyone saying one city’s primary is the defining moment of our lifetimes for the Democratic Party are almost all the same people who told me that some privileged kid murdering a healthcare CEO would make a massive U.S. movement on universal healthcare happen.

So excuse my skepticism.

Imagine attacking the free press for Trump's own Defense Intelligence Agency's "Battle Damage Assessment" report. This is what dictatorships covering up their failures do.

I’m going out later today with another member of my local Democratic committee to an event to talk about the importance of elections and how courts impact your life.

Planned Parenthood provides medical services to a wide range of people and it should be covered. Conservatives attack it because they’re against bodily autonomy.

I wish more people paid attention to the courts.

For the Republicans who always want to know “how to pay for it”, Pennsylvania has a well balanced budget already because of our state Dems and the ROI on school meals is high, but Governor Shapiro has another good idea that they probably also won’t like.

Shapiro says prison closures will save $100M, but critics want Pa. to explore alternatives

Closing two state prisons has emerged as a way for Pennsylvania to save money and take a step closer to a balanced budget, as lawmakers contend with competing funding priorities and a structural deficit.
