🚨NEW: The Writers Guild of America, one of the largest unions in the industry, has called for an investigation into the firing of Stephen Colbert. RETWEET if you stand with Colbert against CBS!
Imagine an America where democracy might be saved by a dead pedophile.
CBS’s billionaire owners pay Trump $16 million to settle a bogus lawsuit while trying to sell the network to Skydance. Stephen Colbert, an extraordinary talent and the most popular late night host, slams the deal. Days later, he's fired. Do I think this is a coincidence? NO.
Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
Last month when Trump was on the Hill, I asked if he could guarantee his voters won’t lose health insurance under his bill. “They won’t lose health insurance,” he said CBO today said 11.8 million more people would be without health insurance in 2034 under the Senate plan.
"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people." —The Declaration of Independence
Every single swing seat Republican who voted to gut healthcare must be held accountable in the midterm election.
17 million people just lost health care. 18 million kids just lost school meals. 3 million Americans just lost food assistance. And $3.5 trillion was added to the deficit. All for a tax cut for Trump’s billionaire donors. The ultimate betrayal.
More than 16 million Americans are at risk of losing their health care because Republicans in Congress are rushing to pass a bill that would cut federal funding for Medicaid and weaken the Affordable Care Act. If the House passes this bill, it will increase costs and hurt…
House Democrats stand united against Republicans’ One Big, Ugly Bill. It is the largest Medicaid cut in history. It leaves kids and seniors to go hungry. It bankrupts our country to give tax breaks to billionaires. Why would anyone vote for it?
i need Hakeem Jeffries livestreaming i need congresspeople at hospitals i need governors on every local tv station i need Barack decrying the gutting of Obamacare on every major podcast for gods sake, i need some leadership from @TheDemocrats. its all free stuff. just do it.
If you think it's so immaterial, maybe call a few seniors in nursing homes and explain to them where they'll go next. Call the mom of a kid with disabilities who won't be able to pay for a new wheelchair. Call just one person whose life you're going to tear apart.
Many seniors can’t afford dental care, hearing aids or glasses. I’m proud that all Democrats supported my amendment last night to expand Medicare to cover dental, hearing and vision paid for by cutting prescription drug costs for Medicare in half. No Republicans voted for it.
Thanks to Senate Republicans, 17 million people will lose their health care. Thanks to Senate Republicans, rural hospitals will close. Thanks to Senate Republicans, three million Americans, including veterans and seniors, will lose food assistance. Thanks to Senate…
This is a really important point. Most Medicaid recipients likely have NO idea that they’re about to lose their coverage.

The 35 richest Republican members of Congress have a net worth of $2.5 billion. They stand to gain from the GOP budget's tax cuts that disproportionately help the rich. Meanwhile, they're cutting Medicaid and food assistance for millions of their constituents.
The Big Beautiful Bill is in its ugliest form yet. - Adding $4 trillion to the deficit - 17 million will lose health care - 30% higher electricity costs - Biggest ever cut in food assistance - $1 trillion in billionaire tax cuts We’re doing everything we can to block this.
🚨Even though Republicans admit that MILLIONS of Americans will lose health care and hospitals will close if their deadly budget passes — they're still charging ahead with benefit cuts to Medicaid and tax breaks for billionaires. Shameful! Tell them: #WeWontGetOverMedicaidCuts
