Democrats opposed it due to concerns it primarily favored corporations & the wealthy, added trillions to the national debt, & funded cuts to social safety net programs like Snap and Medicaid, which they understood would harm low-income families despite the bill's misleading name.

BREAKING: Fed Chair Jerome Powell stuns MAGA world by hitting back hard after Trump's corrupt prosecutors launched a sham investigation into him — exposing the invented "pretexts" used to target him. The usually stoic Powell is done holding back... "Good evening. On Friday, the Department of Justice served the Federal Reserve with grand jury subpoenas, threatening a criminal indictment related to my testimony before the Senate Banking Committee last June," Powell said in a video shared by the official Federal Reserve account on X. "That testimony concerned, in part, a multi-year project to renovate historic Federal Reserve office buildings. "I have deep respect for the rule of law and for accountability in our democracy," Powell continued. "No one-certainly not the Chair of the Federal Reserve-is above the law. But this unprecedented action should be seen in the broader context of the Administration's threats and ongoing pressure." "This new threat is not about my testimony last June or about the renovation of the Federal Reserve buildings," he went on. "It is not about Congress's oversight role. The Fed, through testimony and other public disclosures, made every effort to keep Congress informed about the renovation project." "Those are pretexts," he said. "The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the President. This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions, or whether, instead, monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation." "I have served at the Federal Reserve under four Administrations-Republicans and Democrats alike. In every case, I have carried out my duties without political fear or favor, focused solely on our mandate of price stability and maximum employment," he continued. "Public service sometimes requires standing firm in the face of threats." "I will continue to do the job the Senate confirmed me to do-with integrity and a commitment to serving the American people. Thank you," concluded Powell. Powell deserves the full-throated support of the American people. Trump's utterly corrupt Justice Department is targeting him simply because he has resisted lowering interest rates. Trump is desperate to lower those rates to bolster his failing White House. In that desperation he has launched an all-out attack on the Federal Reserve's independence. Please ❤️ and share if you stand with Jerome Powell!

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to think about and understand something. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims. There are countless Black victims that no one has even heard about, much less seen the public fight demanding answers and justice. Thanks in advance for caring.

🚨BREAKING: Border Patrol just illegally arrested a U.S. citizen… a TEENAGER… in Richfield, Minnesota. The teen was working at Target when agents tackled him and arrested him, while his passport was in his pocket, fully identifying himself as a U.S. citizen. None of it mattered. Why? Because he looked Latino. When a coworker asked who to call, he said, heartbreakingly: “my mom.” Think about that. Your teenage son goes to work, and Border Patrol kidnaps him. This isn’t an isolated incident. ICE and Border Patrol have repeatedly illegally arrested U.S. citizens, especially in Minnesota. And after agents murdered a U.S. citizen who tried to drive away from illegal detention, this should outrage every single American. U.S. citizens do not have to prove their citizenship. Yet, ICE and Border Patrol agents are routinely violating the Constitution, demanding proof anyway… and even refusing to accept drivers licenses or real IDs. And now? Even a passport doesn’t matter. This isn’t enforcement… it’s targeting Americans based on fear and appearance, treating citizens like criminals in their own country. When will this end? When will the government stop stripping citizens of their rights and labeling them terrorists for simply existing?

Capitol Police Officer Michael Fanone was tased on January 6th until he went into cardiac arrest and his heart stopped. Donald Trump pardoned his assaulters and called them “patriots.” RETWEET if you stand with Officer Fanone against Trump and the GOP!

As Zelensky visits the White House and gets bullied again, remember this clip of Marco Rubio explaining the U.S. promised to defend Ukraine FOREVER if they gave up their nukes when the USSR fell. That’s why Lil Marco hides. He hoped we wouldn’t find it. Don’t share it right now.

Covid was a “Democratic Hoax” Yet according to the CDC, 1,228,289 Americans died of Covid. More than any other country. Russian Collusion was a “Democratic Hoax”, Yet on July 13, 2018, A federal grand jury in the District of Columbia, Indicted 12 Russian military intelligence officers for their roles in interfering with the 2016 elections. 2020 Election was “Stollen” Yet 60 cases of Election Fraud presented to federal courts by Trump lawyers, Were thrown out or dismissed due to lack of evidence. The majority of the cases were thrown out by Republican and Trump appointed Judges. The Epstein Files are a “Democratic Hoax” Yet Trump has been named hundreds of times in the Epstein Files, With Multiple Allegations of Rape, And most recently an allegation of being present during a murder. How many more facts are going to be labeled as “Democratic Hoaxes”? Asking for American Citizens who give a fuck about truth and justice.

Trump’s fortune jumped $3B in nine months. Biden’s grew $3M in four years. The disparity is shocking. Adam Mockler walks through the numbers.

Let’s see the tape then, Pat. Let America decide for ourselves. They’ve shown every other tape but that one. Why, Pat? And Pat - we were better off with a cocaine kingpin and Ross Ulbricht in jail. Both flooded the USA w/ fatal drugs. Trump pardoned them both. Why, Pat?

In her effort to protect Trump by burying the 60 Minutes CECOT story of the conman's concentration camp of unconscionable brutality and torture, woefully incompetent editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has made it one of the most read stories this year.

Rob Reiner spent decades defending democracy and fighting for equality - even when it wasn’t easy or popular. At a moment when silence is safer, his willingness to speak out is a reminder that protecting democracy requires courage. RETWEET to honor Reiner's legacy of justice ♥️

The claim is historically false The Founders were not “all Christians,” and they explicitly acknowledged religious diversity. Facts: Thomas Jefferson rejected core Christian doctrines (Trinity, divinity of Jesus) and edited the Bible to remove miracles → Deist. James Madison was deeply skeptical of organized religion and authored the First Amendment to prevent religious dominance. Benjamin Franklin was a Deist who doubted Jesus’ divinity and mocked sectarian dogma. John Adams was a Unitarian, not a Trinitarian Christian. George Washington avoided Christian doctrine entirely in public writings; never referenced Jesus in major addresses. Several founders were Anglican, Congregationalist, Unitarian, Deist, and broadly non-sectarian, not doctrinally Christian in any uniform sense. Key documents settle this: Treaty of Tripoli (1797) ratified unanimously by the Senate: “The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.” First Amendment — explicitly bars religious establishment. Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom — authored by Jefferson. Ken Burns is reflecting mainstream historical scholarship, not distorting it.
