I feel like it should be bigger news that Trump is now openly considering a military draft. Young men haven't been called up for a draft since 1972. Not during the Gulf War. Not during Iraq or Afghanistan. He received five draft deferments but is now open to drafting your kids.

This is horrifying for so many reasons. The one I'm thinking of right now is the billion dollars spent to torture and terrorize and imprison people could easily buy all of us healthcare, child care, parental leave, affordable housing ... all the things the Epstein Class swears we can't afford.
In the last month ICE has bought warehouses in:
- Hagerstown, MD: $102 million
- Surprise, AZ: $70 million
- Hamburg, PA: $87 million
- Tremont, PA: $120 million
- San Antonio, TX: $82 million
- El Paso, TX: $123 million
- Social Circle, GA: price unknown
This is unprecedented.

5/ Only 8% of Americans know these historic health care cuts are happening. When people ask why they lost coverage or why their local hospital shut down or why there isn't a nursing home for their parent, point to this bill.

1/ Today's bill passing marks the biggest health care cuts in U.S. history—nearly $1 trillion slashed over the next 10 years. Instead of moving toward a healthier, more prosperous future—where we prevent disease, expand care, feed children, & increase life expectancy—America chose the opposite.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled states can block Medicaid patients from getting care at Planned Parenthood.
That means fewer cancer screenings. Less birth control. Less basic health care. All while Trump & the GOP give billionaires more tax breaks.
This is a theft of power, care, and dignity.

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

"Bothsidesism is 'suicide for democracy.' In becoming stenographers rather than reporters, journalists effectively legitimize MAGA lies, hate, and fascism as just one reasonable side of a debate in which all partisans are equally credible."
ABC is too cowed to state the obvious about Stephen Miller
The road to fascism is paved with "objectivity" and "civility."
