It’s pretty wild that MAGA is so invested in the fake genocide of white farmers in South Africa but they’re totally cool with Putin slaughtering Ukrainians daily and don’t want to give them a pathway to U.S. citizenship.

North Carolina voted for Trump in all three of his POTUS elections. As North Carolinians struggle to recover from Hurricane Helene, Trump just denied their FEMA request. Conservative voters: Understand this—he does not care about you. He never has. Stop voting for him. He will destroy you, too.

The nominee for USCIS, overseeing student visas, says he wants to end the "optional practical training" for students on F-1 visas. This allows foreign students to stay up to 3 yrs working & contributing economically after getting their degree. Block him, @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

Boyle: We just verified with the congressional budget office and of 13.7 million Americans who will lose their health care because of their bill, exactly zero are undocumented immigrants

The Big MAGA Con: huge tax breaks for the wealthy, higher taxes for some taxpayers making less than $51K. Cuts in Medicaid and food stamps—so people who need the social safety net are screwed. And a big increase in deficits. The oligarchs win. MAGA is a lie. The US is weakened.

The “big, beautiful” bill ain’t beautiful—it’s bullshit. House Republicans just voted for the largest cut to SNAP & Medicaid in U.S. history—turning their backs on their own damn constituents: the working people they were sent here to represent. They don’t serve the people. They serve the rich.

The combined wealth of the 10 richest US billionaires increased by over $360 billion in the last year according to a new Oxfam report. Meanwhile, 60% of Americans don't earn enough to afford basic costs of living. Our nation's raging inequality is on full display.

Testing men over age 70 for prostate cancer is not recommended, and in Biden's last physical, he was not tested. That media pretends not to know this is disgusting. That NeverTrumpers with big followings are pushing a lie about Biden is also disgusting (same people who pushed him out of the race)

The “messaging problem” is Kamala Harris announced a policy to expand Medicare to cover in-home healthcare on The View & it got less than 30 seconds of tv coverage for the next month while pundits f’ed around. The messaging problem is white “supremacy” & complicity when everyone else hears it fine.

This is a HUGE scandal. Elon Musk, JD Vance, and Trump are lying about Social Security fraud. Internal documents show DOGE found "no significant fraud"—but did slow retirement claim processing by 25%. Nothing efficient about making it harder for people to get their benefits.
