Biden built an industrial policy. It was working. We were on a comeback. This Republican budget bill - which destroys the clean energy industry in the U.S. - is a choice to surrender to China.

As the GOP prepares to enrich the mega rich by adding trillions to the debt and cruel budget cuts, it’s worth noting that a Democratic admin probably would have made them even richer through sound economic policy and by not by throwing the markets into a panic every few weeks.

Tennesseans are consistent about two things: believing that this season is the start of a new era of Vols football dominance (LOL) and voting against their own interests. Rural areas will lose healthcare facilities, people will die due to delays in care, but who cares when you can “own the libs”?

11. The bigger question for the House GOP: why the hell do you want this job? Congress is a coequal branch. Your decisions affect every American. If you think that you should only do what Trump wants regardless of the ask and even if your constituents don't like it you aren't a representative.

📣“Our Veterans can’t eat thoughts and prayers.” — Rep. Angie Craig Trump and Republicans' “Big Beautiful Bill" guts food aid for those who wore the uniform. You don’t get to wave the flag while letting Veterans go hungry. That's not patriotism—that's betrayal.

Jeffries: "All we need are 4 Republicans to join us in support of their constituents, to have John McCain-level courage, and stand up in defense of the healthcare of the American people. What type of party would bring a bill to the House floor that rips away Medicaid from those in need?"

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. (via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)
"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much.
"We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve.
"Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad.
"Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them.
"If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following:
• Plant a tree.
• Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail.
• Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do.
• Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it.
• Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone.
• Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something.
• Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace.
"Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

This is a fever dream. The city is not under migrant occupation. This whole thing kicked off because ICE began an intense operation across the city to raid Home Depots and nail salons and places where random undocumented immigrants might be going about their day working a job.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the ‘deportation’ of a 2 year old US citizen. It’s NOT a deportation. I’m not sure what it is. A kidnapping?
