It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill.

People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games.

They know exactly what is going on.

Defend Medicaid.
Vote NO on Cloture.
NO on bill.

The step from "revoking a green card due to political beliefs" to "revoking citizenship for innate characteristics" is so infinitesimally small you'd be a fool not to see where this is going.
This development is a horrifying and further escalation of the very topic I wrote about yesterday evening: The Trump administration’s move from governmental changes to individual attacks focused on political opponents. www.lawdork.com/p/trump-test...

What the Trump administration is doing to unions right now is worse than what Reagan did to PATCO, and if TSA workers allow their union contract to be tossed out without striking, public sector union power in America will soon be decimated.

This is purporting to punish not only a law firm that took clients and cases Trump didn’t like, but anyone doing business with them. Just undisguised gangsterism.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

People seem to forget that the human body is essentially unchanged from when life expectancy was 35 years. The difference today is education, vaccines, environmental regulations, weather forecasting and all the other things the Trump administration is now obliterating.

The acceleration of anti-trans attacks isn't what scares me most at the moment. What scares me most are non-trans people who believe the GOP will stop at the military ban and passports and gender-affirming care for youth.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Dear Elon/Donald,
Sometimes, it's not what you DID that's important, but what you didn't do. This week I didn't:
-Make a Nazi salute
-Sell out democracy for money & power
-Extort Ukraine for their resources
-Dance in a drug-induced haze at CPAC
-Decimate US health, science, & education funding
