The anti-voter SAVE Act has stalled in the Senate, but its threat to voters continues. States have begun to push their own versions of the SAVE Act, which could block tens of thousands of eligible citizens from registering to vote. This is voter suppression!

@TheDemocrats Why should the government be paying for “healthcare” in the first place? Tax us less and let us pay for our own healthcare.

NEW: Republicans are reportedly considering health care funding cuts to pay for Trump’s war with Iran. Hundreds of thousands of Americans could lose their coverage if this happens. Republicans are choosing war over health care.

@zoomafrika1 You forgot to show the black africans invading other blacks' territories, then capturing them, raping them, killing them, enslaving them and then selling them to the Europeans. Why didn't you include that?

If you haven’t heard, and even if you have, Jimmy Kimmel said this about Markwayne Mullin, former Senator from Oklahoma, and our newest Secretary of Homeland Security: “We have a plumber now protecting us from terrorism.” Apparently, there has been some backlash. Plumbers were offended, obviously, as were parents of plumbers, spouses of plumbers, children of plumbers, and millions of people who have had a plumber show up when they needed one. Comedians were also offended, (the funny ones, anyway,) along with a surprising number of terrorists - especially those with access to hot and cold running water. However, in spite of the ensuing kerfuffle, @jimmykimmel doubled down. “I’m not upset that the head of Homeland Security was a plumber,” he said, “I’m upset that he isn’t still a plumber." He further elucidated by adding, "I wouldn't put a plumber in charge of Homeland Security for the same reason I wouldn't call a five-star general to pull a rat out of my toilet, OK? We all have our areas of expertise.” Being offended is always a choice, and I don’t choose to be offended by a joke, even one that comes at the expense of the skilled tradespeople my foundation tries to elevate. But I am a tad butt hurt by the suggestion that skilled workers should never evolve into something new, and that competence is somehow limited to one vocation. Obviously, expertise and skill are important. If I need a new kidney, I’d prefer a doctor do the surgery, not a late-night talk show host. But if the doctor in question used to host a talk show, why would I hold that against him? Ten years ago, during one of the presidential debates, @MarcoRubio answered a workforce-related question by arguing that America needed to get shop class back into high schools. He concluded by saying, “What our country needs are more welders and fewer philosophers.” A lot of people on this page commented that Rubio and I were singing from the same hymnal, but in fact, we weren’t. At least not entirely. Because I don’t think the current shortage of welders has anything to do with an overabundance of philosophers. In fact, I think it’s a mistake to promote one vocation at the expense of the other. What we really need in this country, are more welders who can talk intelligently about Aristotle, and more philosophers who can run an even bead. More Generals, in other words, who can fix their own toilets, and more plumbers who can hold a powerful government job. This is what Mullin did. He was a private citizen who mastered an essential skill and then turned that skill into a multi-million-dollar company that employed a lot of people and served a lot of customers. That gave him the freedom to do other things with his life, including a career in public service which got him into Congress, where he’s spent the last eleven years doing whatever Congressmen do. Now, he has a very consequential position in the Cabinet of the current administration. Is that not the embodiment of the American Dream? I get that Jimmy Kimmel might have a problem with Mullin’s politics, but what possible objection could he have about the trajectory of his career, or his desire to do more than one thing with his life? The only sensible thing to do in the wake of a moment this tone deaf, is remind America that the skills gap is wide, and getting wider. The shortage of skilled tradespeople is now headline news and closing it is nothing less than a matter of national security. This year, my foundation has set aside $10 million dollars to help train the next generation of plumbers, and lots of other essential workers. I'm talking about hundreds of thousands of AI-proof, six figure jobs that don't require a four-year degree, waiting to be filled. The money is currently available to anyone who wants to master a useful skill at mikeroweworks.org. Apply today. As for those of you genuinely offended by Kimmel's comments, consider expressing your disappointment with a modest donation to mikeroweWORKS. Our work ethic scholarship is making a real difference, and your money will be well spent, I promise. The donate button is big and red and hard to miss, at mikeroweworks.org I’d love to chat but I’ve gotta pull a rat out of my toilet…

@lamps_apple @hasanthehun Because they have a dependency-based mindset. It’s “the governments” job to solve your every problem that is even slightly inconvenient.

A homeowner in Cambridge, Maryland, reportedly called ICE on six Guatemalan workers after hiring them for a remodeling job. It’s unclear if she called ICE to avoid paying the workers what they were owed — a practice that has become more common since Trump’s second term began. The arrests were broadcast live for about 30 minutes by a co‑worker, identified as Bryan Polanco. ‘Seeing it is not the same as experiencing it. I’ve seen many videos, and sadly today I had to experience it,’ Polanco said.

@YankeeGirl_69 @TheTNHoller These are routine training flights. Pilots have to maintain a minimum number of flight hours per month to stay qualified and remain proficient. I live 50 miles from a military base. I see no less than 10 navy and 2 USCG helo’s fly by every day. It’s routine and normal.

How much is it costing taxpayers for Trump to send military helicopters to do fly-bys for washed up *musicians* and try to intimidate NASHVILLE protestors?

"No Kings, No ICE, No War! Democracy is what we're fighting for" -- Our co-president @Rob_Weissman lit up the crowd at the No Kings rally in Minneapolis. Together, we can stand up to Trump's lawless and authoritarian administration.
