We're demanding his immediate release and we cannot allow this abuse of power to go unchecked. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

If this doesn't feel like fascism to you because things are still mostly normal at work and school and the vacation is still planned, congratulations you've just learned what fascism is like.

It is insidious. It will initially target only the most vulnerable — people who probably aren't like you.

Last week, the Senate GOP passed a budget that included a $150B increase in military spending.

This week, the House GOP will vote on its own budget — which includes massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP to pay for more billionaire tax cuts.

This isn't about what we can "afford."
The House Wants to Pass Trump’s Agenda in One Big Bill. Here’s What’s in It.
