Trump Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins just called his SNAP cuts a "pretty big win". Throwing 5 million struggling Americans — including families with children — off food aid to fund tax cuts for the rich isn't a "win". It's a national disgrace.

Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.

Judge Wise finds that ICE coerced a 20-year-old Tongan man — admitted legally to the country three years ago — to sign a document accepting deportation, despite no criminal record or immigration proceedings against him. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The Republican "solution" for Social Security is an unaccountable commission that rubber stamps benefit cuts like increasing the retirement age. Hell no! @wyden.senate.gov

Join Michigan Democrats and me in Detroit this Friday, August 7th, as we kick off the general election and lay out what's at stake. We only have 90 days until Election Day - and it's going to take all of us to deliver a better future.

We proved it in Wisconsin. We proved it in New York City. We proved it in dozens of special elections over the past year. People power over money!

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

The Social Security payroll tax is capped at $184,500. If you're a nurse or construction worker, you're paying Social Security on 100% of your income. But if you're a corporate lawyer, raking in millions, you're only paying Social Security on a tiny fraction of your income. - @warren.senate.gov

Just a note that @jbendery.bsky.social is 100% worth following. Always finds stories like these that matter, and yet are a bit under the radar.

El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."

Exactly!

This guy is totally awesome. MI would be lucky to have him as a senator. His words beautifully echo James Baldwin’s: "The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality."

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

The United States Treasury: An ATM for the Rich and Powerful

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

The President of the United States is a liar.

A key pillar of El-Sayed’s campaign is his Aging Affordably in America platform to ensure that every senior has a secure retirement. Billionaires want to defeat Abdul El-Sayed to avoid paying their fair share into Social Security and Medicare. Send @abdulelsayed.bsky.social to Congress in November!
