Illegal, illegal, illegal is all I see and hear but I don’t see anybody currently that can put a stop to it. I can’t believe the entire gop is just sure let him do his tyranny thing. Once he’s out of control there is no stopping him and he doesn’t care about anybody.
I don't get all the posting about the things he's doing that are illegal. We still don't get it - there are no laws left for him. Even though he's an idiot, his prediction that he could shoot someone on 5th avenue and get away with is was very prescient.
Lawsuits and protests are now the only appropriate response. Call your representatives in Congress every damn day and ask what they are doing about all this. I’ve made my calls for today. If you’re not a lawyer, start dialing:
It is pretty obvious that Trump's view is that if your are poor and sick you should just die and "decrease the surplus population" as Ebenezer Scrooge once said.
The families of every person who is denied care & suffers permanent damage or death should sue the government and for breaking the law and demand monetary damages. Since the Felon-in-Chief, the RWNJs, and the billionaires hold all branches of gov't + the media, this is the only way to fight back.
I'm told a White House memo came out in the past hour or so saying the funding freeze won't apply to Medicaid, Pell grants, and other programs that provide benefits to individuals. I haven't seen it yet so I don't know if it mentions SNAP or Ryan White Act.
So, while feckless Democrats in Congress make "strongly worded" statements, it appears State officials are actually taking some form of action against Trump's attempt to freeze Federal disbursements.
A huge portion are on Medicaid are working but their employer keeps their hours below a level to need to pay for healthcare insurance. They are passing off an expense to the taxpayers.
If we had universal healthcare insurance then this wouldn’t be an issue and let employers give more hours.
My brother is disabled and on Medicaid. He's recovering from a major health event right now. if he loses access to care, I don't know what will happen.
It’s the provider portal. You don’t have access to it.
So if someone tried to verify your brother had Medicaid they wouldn’t be able to say if he had Medicaid or not.
So if someone has an emergency they can’t get help if on Medicaid.
My red state is already trying to backtrack on the Medicaid expansion we forced on our shitty GED Legislature via a voter initiative. The pro life party in action.

They think they can deal with his impulsive mouth to grey what they want.
If we’re being brutally honest - there are co-conspirators working behind the scenes to roll these harmful and cruel agendas out.
Trump is a criminal.
Project 2025 is treason.

Lawsuits have also been filed about birthright citizenship. More are coming no doubt.
