Just in time for the nation’s birthday, House Republicans have passed the most regressive legislation in recent memory.

Legal critics have called it “the worst bill in modern American history.” Why? 🧵
Republicans just passed “the worst bill in modern American history”
It takes from the poorest and gives to the richest—among other things.

It's called autogenocide, the goal is to coerce a population into killing themselves and/ or die by design. When MAGA and Trump strip people of their healthcare or safety nets, they aren't thinking about saving money they're thinking about how many of us they can exterminate. #3E #EndAutogenocide

I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?

Zohran Mamdani is saying things like “poverty is a policy choice and politicians have a duty to their constituents to make their lives affordable” and it is making a lot of politicians very very scared that they may actually have to start doing some actual service in their public service jobs.

There’s an active investigation into the access DOGE officials gained to federal IT systems. Fortunately, detailed documentation was kept by many along the way. More DOGE “resignations” are expected.

MAGA scumbags lose their shit over Zohran Mamdani’s victory over dirtbag Cuomo in the NYC mayoral Democratic primary.

Elise Stefanik, Laura Loomer, & Charlie Kirk were some of the scumbags who fired off Islamophobic smears about Mamdani and Muslim New Yorkers.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson.

Tilson sits at a whopping .8%.

Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.
