Since 1994, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they receive in benefits every year.
Do not believe the lies you hear about immigrants.
They are good for society and the economy.
Maybe you’re a good listener
Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
Wonder if more Texas voters would support him if he called himself Jim Bob
This is clearly fine with the GOP.

Truly unbelievable stuff. Just up there shamelessly lying his ass off
So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.
That's $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
And Trump calls it a “performance “. Like a show where people die
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Reps Jared Huffman, Jamie Raskin and Chrissy Houlahan, led 27 of their colleagues in requesting the DOD Inspector open an investigation into reports and claims of Hegseth “invoking religious prophecy and apocalyptic theology to justify the United States’ military actions in Iran”
@repchrispappas.bsky.social is 100% correct. Ever since the Citizens United decision, wealthy special interests have been secretly buying our elections. It's time to pass the DISCLOSE Act and close the floodgates of dark money.
Shapiro on SOTU: First off, it was boring. It was poorly delivered, and it was too damn long. This dude, who’s the worst orator of our time, did two hours. He comes off as totally unhinged. He’s like spitting everywhere, and he’s lying constantly about things.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.
The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.

People do not want this.
They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
Cricket was the name of the puppy that Kristi Noem murdered.
Thank God for Jaime Raskin

Just like every Republican President
Robert De Niro will appear this week at Carnegie Hall, where he will recite excerpts from a Philip Glass symphony about Abraham Lincoln that the composer once intended to stage at the Kennedy Center.
Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."
The Epstein cover-up is starting to crack, but Pam Bondi is still stonewalling. This is the biggest scandal in modern history, and it's being buried.
Congress: Do your job. Demand the full release NOW.
Who's with us? Tell your reps:
