There's a lot happening right now, but this week, Republicans unveiled some new changes in their Big, Ugly, Betrayal of a bill and snuck in a provision that would allow them to SELL OFF OUR PUBLIC LANDS. No way. Our public lands are NOT for sale. Help me spread the word.

It's not clear what all of the GOP's last-minute changes are or if this bill has the votes to pass, but Mike Johnson is moving forward with a middle-of-the-night vote on Trump's sweeping policy package that slashes health and nutrition programs to enrich the rich. www.huffpost.com/entry/house-...

On top of the cuts to Medicaid and the ACA, this bill proposes $500 BILLION in Medicare cuts. Republicans don't care who they hurt as long as they get their tax cuts. Beyond egregious! youtu.be/WKKZjLwk3sc?...

Unbelievable. With Dem support, the senate passes an industry-friendly crypto bill that does nothing about Trump's crypto corruption. Ignore these Dems' speeches. Watch their votes. They're telling you they don't get it. And then they spam you to say Trump is bad so please donate more money.

President Trump is quite literally selling seats to a private dinner and White House tours to foreign nationals for $4 million+ a piece. Much of the money goes into his own pocket. This is corruption to the highest degree.
