Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

Trump’s About to Slash Medicaid. TV News Has Barely Noticed. The rush job to pass the big beautiful bill has had its intended outcome: not giving the public time to catch on to the consequences.

"Republican leaders are…desperately afraid the public will discover what the bill would do—rip health care away from millions, explode the deficit, and cause what might be the biggest transfer in government resources from poor to rich in American history."

You gave it your best shot. 🙃 He made all the arguments to NOT vote for the CR, and somehow came to the opposite conclusion. Baffling.

Chuck Schumer is making the case to vote against the CR in his own words on Chris Hayes right now. And DOESNT REALIZE IT. The GOP owns the shut down unless you cooperate, you spineless potato!

The U.S. is cutting research funding, the weather service, park rangers, Social Security Admin staff, lifesaving foreign aid, plus billions in Medicaid and food stamps. For what? To potentially buy crypto with taxpayer dollars and to give more tax cuts to the rich.
