Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

The flooding that devastated Central Texas was the country’s deadliest catastrophe for children in recent memory. More than a quarter of the people who died — at least 133 at last count — were still in elementary school.

It's small potatoes in the scheme of things but not sure it makes any sense for legal reporters to ask lawyers at firms that have caved to Trump for any expert analysis on litigation involving the administration.

House Republicans just voted to gut Medicaid, which covers 1 in 5 Americans overall, including 41% of births and 63% of nursing home care.
They also just voted to gut SNAP, on which 41 million food insecure Americans rely.
This won’t just harm people. This will kill people.
