Budgets are a statement of values. On chopping block: healthcare, school lunches, science grants, the arts, foreign aid. These people are moral monsters.

The Heritage Foundation was the idea of Joseph Coors, of Coors Brewing fame. It’s an odd coincidence that a beer maker led the drunken stupor that has become the Republican Party.
Isn't there a saying "you can determine the morality of a country by how they treat and care for their people"? The U.S. has never been worthy of anything above a Con that, but we've been a work in progress & were getting there..... until Trump.
Jen, I'm sorry, but this is not a novel, new stance for the GOP. I'm glad to hear disgust & alarm from the trad con faction about the wholesale destruction of our country. But let's be real, ALMOST ALL of this cruel, nihilistic shit has been the stuff of GOP wet dreams FOREVER.
The difference now, is the party is drunk on power & the cruelty has caused them to gleefully grab onto the third rail of EVERY single political + social issue & cackling while they burn the country to the ground. This may be conservative ideology run amok, but the tracks were laid over generations.
That is the CONservative platform. The CON of “individualism” to starve society of resources and make them beholden to authoritarian billionaires. They own the Republican Party and are lying to Americans.
Amorally cruel and making these acts not for anything other than the sole purpose of tearing down each institution but by bit to appease the Russian prez.
The once rabid Russia hawks in congress now silently cede power.
They see nothing wrong with cutting any services that help others because as long as they pad their pockets they don't care. They are immoral monsters.
TrumpCare teaser 1: Wealthy pay $50k+ OOP yearly for concierge MD priority. Health Ins morphs into finance. Non-wealthy pay doctor direct ($500+/minute). Providers deny non-white & LGBTQ+ due to religious/moral conflict. ERs refuse admissions. Hippocratic oath no longer req’d to become a doctor.
They always are when republicans are in charge. Not only that but social security, Medicaid, and Medicare. What republicans always do though…….tax cuts for the rich. They’ve always been moral monsters but the American people either support that or don’t care enough to vote or choose a side.
Yes! While irrational and stupid economic policies hurt us, and illegal actions erode stability, it’s the immoral decisions that will kill the American spirit.
Beware! The cruel and corrupt Republicans in Congress are attempting to decimate and destroy Medicaid, the ACA, social programs and the economic safety net in order to give massive tax cuts to the selfish wealthy and greedy corporations. Shameful and vile! They must be stopped!
