Why are Republicans trying to prevent states from regulating A.I. for *10 years* even as tech companies themselves say it's moving so fast we have no idea what it will like even a year from now?

Republicans want unregulated AI. What could go wrong?
A provision in Trump's big bill would eliminate state-level regulation for 10 years.

Have any of the White House reporters even attempted to ask the Trump administration why it keeps saying that Abrego Garcia is in the domestic custody of a foreign sovereign when all evidence suggests that El Salvador is holding him *on behalf of the United States* pursuant to a contract?
PAYING THE GOVERNMENT OF EL SALVADOR TO KEEP HIM AT CECOT
Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13.

“His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”

If Kilmar Abrego Garcia is really MS-13, where are his face tattoos? You can’t trust anything the Trump administration says.

Autism is not a disease, therefore, cannot cause an epidemic.

Autism Spectrum Disorder is an inherited neuro developmental disorder.

It is more commonly diagnosed bc it’s better recognized.

RFK Jr never misses an opportunity to demonstrate his profound ignorance.

per Van Hollen, El Salvador wouldn't let him into CECOT, which seems notable given that multiple House Republicans have photos of themselves inside grinning and giving a thumbs-up Abu Ghraib-style

The right to vote is the FOUNDATION of all other rights. Without it, our voices are SILENCED, and our freedoms are COMPROMISED.

The SAVE Act is a DIRECT ATTACK on this foundation, putting EVERYTHING we hold dear at risk.

My God.

ICE wrongfully arrested a man while his 5-year-old autistic child sat in the backseat—and shipped him off to an El Salvador prison. No due process. Now the Trump administration claims they can’t get him back.

How many more?

THIS NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER STORY.

If other Senators come to support Cory Booker and extend this effort indefinitely

Democrats can put a stop to Trump and Musk-at least temporarily

And that could save thousands of lives
