Today’s vote is just one more data point showing the American people that Republicans are inexplicably hostile to their own constituents having high-quality health care.

Someone who gets a cancer diagnosis needs good, affordable insurance that pretty much covers their treatment – not $1,000 in a health savings account plus pricy junk health insurance that leaves them on the hook for massive bills.
The Republican "alternative" to Democrats’ cost-lowering plan doesn’t lower costs at all.
Republicans refused to make good on their commitment to work in a bipartisan way to lower skyrocketing premiums.
Now, they own the massive fiscal disaster that is about to hit their constituents – health care premiums will double in a matter of weeks. 🧵
Wishing my colleague @amo.house.gov a very happy birthday today!! 🎂🎂🎂

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?
NOEM: We haven't deported veterans
MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea
Revolution Wind “stop work” order already struck down, as unlawful. Trump DOJ declined to appeal.
Now the underlying executive order struck down, as unlawful.
Unlawful political services to fossil fuel industry donors is a recurring Trump behavior.
The campaign corruption case just argued in the Supreme Court attracted a flotilla of creepy front groups who filed “amicus” briefs — 15 of them by our count!
The Supreme Court refuses to require disclosure of the connections between them. Smelly.
“A member of the public familiar with the Maxwell trial record who reviewed the grand jury materials that the Government proposes to unseal would thus learn next to nothing new … would come away feeling disappointed and misled.”
“DOJ’s motion … itself misled victims—and the public at large—in holding out the Maxwell grand jury materials as essential to the goal of “transparency to the American public,” when in fact the grand jury materials would not add to public knowledge.”
“…DOJ, although paying lip service to Maxwell’s and Epstein’s victims, has not treated them with the solicitude they deserve.”
“(…the only arguable public interest served by disclosure would be to “expose as disingenuous the Government’s public explanations for moving to unseal”).”
“(DOJ’s “entire premise—that the Maxwell grand jury materials would bring to light meaningful new information about Epstein’s and Maxwell’s crimes, or the Government’s investigation into them—is demonstrably false.”).”
“Contrary to DOJ’s depiction, the grand jury materials would not reveal new information of any consequence.”
Here are a few excerpts from the latest court order, underlining the Trump DOJ Epstein Files mischief and trickery:
Instead of releasing the voluminous Epstein files they had, DOJ moved to disclose grand jury materials that contained nothing new.
As people evaluate the credibility of DOJ’s disclosure of the Epstein files, it’s good to remember the bogus effort so far.
🧵
Global clean energy investment continues to rise, setting new records, as Trump harms America’s strength by stooging for aging, dirty, expensive, doomed fossil fuel.
