'I'm mad as hell!' Republicans get earful as Dem loses it over massive budget cut
A Florida Democrat snapped during a House Appropriations subcommittee meeting Friday, declaring the Republican fiscal year 2027 spending bill "a war on women and girls" after it moved to eliminate family planning funding for millions of Americans."I'm mad as hell! I cannot believe what I see!" Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FL) shouted during the Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies subcommittee markup. "This is a war on women and girls!"Frankel tore into the bill over a string of cuts she said would devastate low-income women and families. The Republican spending plan eliminates Title X family planning funding — a cut of $286 million — and zeroes out the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program, slashing another $108 million. Title X serves nearly 3 million people annually, according to Frankel, mostly low-income or uninsured."This is our family planning money," Frankel said, "and not only that, preventative care, cancer screening, diabetes, keeping people healthy — mostly people who are very poor or uninsured."She didn't stop there. Frankel accused Republicans of pushing women toward unwanted pregnancies while simultaneously gutting the programs that would support them."I know you're against abortion. That's one thing. But forced pregnancy, that's another thing."The bill also cuts the Office on Women's Health within HHS by $14 million, according to Democratic appropriators, and replaces teen pregnancy prevention programs with abstinence-only education, which received a $5 million funding increase."Zeroing out teen pregnancy prevention — okay, let's see," Frankel said. "And lastly, not lastly — I go to another page — almost cutting in half the Office on Women's Health within HHS. This is a war! It's a war on women!"Frankel closed with a direct appeal to colleagues across the aisle."If you are a woman or you love a woman — you have a daughter, you have a sister, a mother, a cousin, an aunt — let's keep them healthy."According to Democratic appropriators, the bill cuts total spending by $19.1 billion — 9 percent — below fiscal year 2026 levels.
Trump official proclaims America is in 'economic golden age' — and gets slammed
Kevin Hassett, Director of the National Economic Council, told Fox News on Friday that the economy under President Donald Trump was booming — and hilarity ensued.Hassett claimed "the Trump boom" wouldn't be reported by "the fake news," and that the One Big Beautiful Bill has massively helped to improve the economy — dismissing affordability concerns among Americans."Right now, Wall Street just doesn't understand that the Trump economy is really creating an economic golden age," Hassett said.Onlookers immediately attacked."Can the numbers be trusted??" Attorney and former public defender Frank Amari, who has more than 64,000 followers, wrote on Bluesky."It sure is, for the 1%. Not for Main Street," filmmaker and producer Joel Lesko wrote on Bluesky."Trump is creating an 'economic golden age' for his cronies in the top 1/2 of 1%. The rest of us can go suck it," Dawn Humphrey, a retired communications expert with more than 21,000 followers, wrote on Bluesky."An economic golden age, eh? I'll leave this here for you," Georgetown University professor Anthony M. Hopper wrote on X, sharing the University of Michigan’s Consumer Sentiment Index report showing an economic decline.Kevin Hassett: "Right now, Wall Street just doesn't understand that the Trump economy is really creating an economic golden age" pic.twitter.com/sjxp9JK9sn— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 5, 2026

Bailing House members now regretful as effort to escape chaos ends careers: report
Lawmakers fleeing the chaotic House of Representatives for the greener pastures of higher office are finding the doors are shut to them by unimpressed voters, according to a report.Nearly 30 House members have discovered that service in Congress has become a political liability rather than an asset.Politico reported that the exodus of House members seeking promotions has resulted in a cascade of primary defeats, leaving some lawmakers wishing they had simply remained in their current positions and relied on incumbency to keep them employed.The pattern has been unmistakable in recent weeks. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R) lost Iowa's GOP gubernatorial nomination despite a late Trump endorsement. Rep. Dusty Johnson (R) fell short in South Dakota's gubernatorial race. Rep. Chip Roy (R) lost a Texas attorney general runoff.House Democrats have fared no better. In Illinois, Reps. Robin Kelly and Raja Krishnamoorthi both lost to the state's lieutenant governor in the Senate primary. In Texas, high-profile Rep. Jasmine Crockett was defeated by a state representative in the Democratic Senate race.The reason, according to members themselves, is straightforward: voters blame Congress for being dysfunctional and see House members as part of the problem rather than the solution, according to Politico."There's definitely those out there who think, 'Well, it's broken, and they've been in it a long time, and obviously it's still broken,' so we kind of get the blame for it," said Rep. Buddy Carter, who failed to reach a runoff in Georgia's Republican Senate primary last month.The shift marks a dramatic reversal. Congressional service was once a stepping stone to higher office — half of last year's freshmen senators previously served in the House. Now, members fear their Capitol Hill tenure has become toxic.State-level officials and political outsiders are capitalizing on anti-Washington sentiment. "The voters all across the country aren't particularly fond of D.C., so are you perceived to be part of the establishment or someone that's been battling it?" asked Rep. David Schweikert, now running for Arizona's GOP gubernatorial nomination.According to the report, the pattern extends to specific races. GOP Rep. John Rose trails Sen. Marsha Blackburn in Tennessee gubernatorial polling, even as he downplays his congressional service in campaign ads, identifying himself as "a father, a farmer and a CEO" while omitting any mention of his House seat.The consequences ripple beyond individual campaigns. In South Carolina, Tuesday's GOP gubernatorial primary could end the political careers of Reps. Ralph Norman and Nancy Mace, with Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette positioned as the frontrunner after winning Trump's endorsement.According to Politico, the mounting primary losses create additional complications for House leadership already struggling to maintain attendance. Speaker Mike Johnson has canceled multiple voting days this year to accommodate members' primary schedules, with the risk of further no-shows likely to increase as more House members pursue long-shot bids for higher office.
John Fetterman sparks fresh fury as he becomes first Dem to hand Trump court victory
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) sparked another wave of liberal outrage after becoming the first Senate Democrat to clear the path for one of President Donald Trump’s judicial nominees during the president’s second term, Punchbowl News reported Friday.Fetterman has become something of a pariah among Democrats after routinely siding with Republicans on various issues, including matters related to immigration enforcement, Trump’s war powers and Israel’s bombardment of Gaza. And on Friday, Punchbowl News confirmed that he had waived his right to block Trump’s lifetime nomination of a federal judge in Pennsylvania, sparking fury among a major liberal and anti-Trump advocacy organization.“These are not normal times, and any senator who thinks that this is standard operating procedure and that any of these nominations are normal course of operations is deluding themselves,” said Josh Orton, president of the organization Demand Justice, speaking with Punchbowl News.“If Democrats truly believe that we have to stand up to Trump’s attacks on the rule of law, they have to do so in every room — not just on Twitter and not just on TV.”Fetterman cleared the path for the Trump-tapped Antonio Pozos to serve as a lifetime federal judge for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, doing so by turning in his blue slip, a process that waives his right to oppose Pozos’ appointment.“It’s the first time in Trump’s second term that a Senate Democrat has turned in a blue slip for one of Trump’s judicial picks,” Punchbowl News’ report read. “The move is already setting off yet another battle between Fetterman and his numerous critics on the left, who demand unyielding opposition to Trump, particularly on lifetime appointments to the federal bench.”
