In case you need a summary of what’s happening, Republicans are unnecessarily making 40 million people go hungry to blackmail Democrats into making your grandma’s health insurance premiums double.

Watch every second of this.

Our worst fears are here. With Trump’s new bill, the police state is no longer looming—it’s official.

Expect more raids on a massive scale, shattered families, and a brutal crackdown on humanitarian protections.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

What media you support is a statement of your priorities and your values. If you think Trump needs to work more effectively with a GOP Congress, support The Washington Post. If you believe we must fight for our democracy, then consider becoming a Democracy Docket subscriber today. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care.

They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Black women mother the world. The patience, sacrifice, love, joy, and nurturing we bring to constantly and consistently improve the conditions of those around us are easy to overlook and take for granted. On this day & always, recognize the worth & contributions of Black women.
