McGovern: "This is not a governing philosophy. It is a scam. I wasn't sent here to vote for trash. I can't understand why you'd choose a career of public service to do this -- to rip away the healthcare & food assistance of working & middle class Americans. Is that really what you came here to do?"

In the dead of night.
Both sides are irreparably corrupt
It’s time for indigenous and black communities to lead the people of this land.
I won’t call us a nation anymore because the “nation” is just a filthy body of government that railroads our lives
It's EXACTLY what they came there to do and it must be a tremendous relief to no longer have to hide it.
These Republicans are the sneakiest, nasty people on earth.
I hope they someday don't and can't have health insurance.
If it's good enough for them, it's certainly good enough for everybody else.
But then it's very comfortable. Republicans are trying to take away even the little scraps for the rest of Americans.
Before that, they had the same FHEB health insurance as Federal workers.
They also have access to medical staff st the Capitol.

Regardless, I'm sure it gets your goat, too!

Okay, you do you.
Instead, they choose a gold-level Obamacare policy and receive federal subsidies that cover 72 percent of the cost of the premiums.
Like all federal employees they pay 25% of the premiums and whatever copays and deductibles their particular plan has. The only difference is that Republicans made Congress go on a choice of ACA instead of a similar FEHB plans.
Next time Google instead of just typing.
If it was regulated, which is what the ACA started out as, "we the people" would benefit with better coverage and lower mo. payments.
Can't have that. REPUBLICANS SUCK!
That is what they are destroying next for people. The prices will triple.
And they don’t hide it.
Thanks for Citizens United
The cruelty is the point

But they have no courage; just self-preservation. They did not come to govern; just to rule and fill their pockets.
And you can’t shame the shameless.
this is a fascist coup and until/unless people respond proportionately, we will lose.
Elected leaders, whose job is to sort complexities/lead us have failed us.
1/2
I will continue to ask: what of significance have protests accomplished under this regime?
POC and women have always done the heavy lift of progress and have always eventually been outnumbered and pushed back down.
I hear what you want. it's not a strategy rooted in the reality of who Americans are. you all are planning actions for a population that doesn't exist rather than figuring out how to activate the one that does.
I am highly skeptical of the veracity of your claim.
Rather than make hyperbolic claims he could just show us in print. Curiously none of them ever do 🤷♂️
You are dismissed
Dismiss all you wish, your prerogative but you are choosing hyperbole and propaganda over reality.
You are unworthy of discourse
Goodbye
When they stop seeing it as public service then they only focus on themselves.
You really want to encourage that?
The public SERVANTS are the unpaid and underpaid multitudes of people staffing food banks, health clinics, homeless shelters, childcare facilities, crisis lines, etc.
Your take is intellectual laziness.
It is an abrogation of responsibility as a citizen to lazily assume “all politicians serve the oligarchy”.
That is the kind of lazy mindset that created the oligarchy in the US.
And by “us” I mean American Ideology. Our constitutional values and our practice of Western Liberal Democracy.
Warning:Republicans, the leopard will eat your face too.

Voting for the GOP/MAGA Klepoparty is damn near suicidal.
It is looking more and more like it is past time to get the hell out of America.

as it stands at noon today, they do not have the votes to pass it on.
I suspect that if I live long enough, I’ll be looking to Medicaid to help pay for the aides to wipe the drool from my chin while in my nursing home bed.
Jesus - what a depressing thought…
By the way, love your handle!
CLASS WAR!!!
@repmcgovern.bsky.social
Shame them every chance you get!
The trash collector, the survey team, etc., they are public servants.
Who are one’s constituents, you ask?
EVERYONE!!!
Everyone in one’s district, whether or not they voted for you, or voted at all, even those not old enough to vote, including non-citizens!
Not just those who voted for you!
Keep em poor
Keep em sick
Keep em stupid
Control the women
But I do agree CNN is getting borderline unwatchable and I used to love me some CNN.
Power and future wealth are next.
King James Bible or something like that
1) flip vulnerable seats to Dem
2) Peacefully protest en-masse. 6/6 & 6/14.
3) call Dem & Repub reps. Specifically instruct them.
4) help NGOs help you.
5) help Dems who are running. text banking voters is easy https://mobilize.us
gotta get those oligarchs lower taxes and more wealth
Representative McGovern lay it all out very clearly for all to see.
To call it a "Big Beautiful Bill" or to call his platform of deceit "Truth Social" is just a reminder of how FASCISM works.
👉Resist.
CALL OUT NEWSPEAK!
Resist.

raises taxes on Americans who make $30,000 a year or less, by 74%
"Trump was running to help the working class of America."
How much longer does this CHARLATAN get to continue his destruction of America!
/s (just in case)😏
Yes. The GOP is there to rip away healthcare & food.
To destroy our government and privatize whatever maybe profitable to them.
Why doesn't everyone realize this fact at this point?!
Organize voters
Vote them out
Some of this is ignorance. Some is racism and bigotry, and some of it is apathy.
Their only goal: burn this county to the ground one executive order and bill at a time
