#arbluedots #voteblue Donald Trump and Elon Musk are now at war, with Trump threatening to cancel Musk's government contracts and Musk saying he'll decommission his Dragon spacecraft. Sounds like a good argument against privatizing NASA.

#arbluedots #voteblue Think about this. Because of the tax cuts. Even with the massive cuts to Medicaid, the BBB will add over $3 TRILLION to the debt. You can't cut enough to offset the tax cuts. We need more revenue. Let the tax cuts die!

#arbluedots #voteblue Senator Joni Ernst reveals Republican Healthcare Plan. "We're all going to die."

#arbluedots, #voteblue This may be an unpopular opinion. With the advent of TACO, it may be time to cut military spending. It doesn't do any good to have the world's biggest military. If nobody thinks you'll use it.

#arbluedots, #voteblue I "borrowed" this, but it is appropriate. Easier to let the building burn down around you than it is to acknowledge that you shouldn’t have played with matches in the first place.

Taking a break for a moment from the news. Did you know that leopard geckos are one of two species of gecko that can blink. Most geckos don't have eyelids. They can also lick their eyes. You can see it on youtube.

#arbluedots #voteblue This is urgent! The House Budget Bill contains a clause that would prohibit federal courts from using federal funds to enforce contempt orders. Email your senator, tell them to vote against this.

#arbluedots #voteblue Hey CNN! Quit dragging down a former president, who had a good record in office, to sell a book. Why don't you start reporting on the obvious mental decline of the current president?

#arbluedots #voteblue It needs to be said. Republicans could pass a budget cutting the deficit and not cutting Medicaid, if they let go of the Trump tax cuts. They'd rather deny health care than tax the rich.

#arbluedots #voteblue Trump questions why Dr. Jill Bidden didn't recognize Joe had metastatic Prostate cancer. Takeway: Trump doesn't know the difference between a PHD and an MD. Also doesn't know what empathy is.

#arbluedots #voteblue I have a question. After his comments regarding Biden's decline, when is Vance going to invoke the 25th and remove Trump? At least Biden can finish a sentence.

Good morning !

#arbluedots #voteblue Considering the reaction it's drawing from the maga crowd, this should be the sign everybody carries at future protests. 8647

#arbluedots #voteblue Here's the mismatch. Cuts to vital services in house budget $880B. Shortfall caused by extending Trump's tax cuts $4.5T. Cutting essential services and not cutting the deficit. Tax the rich!

#arbluedots This is the party that cries that they are being censored. arkansasadvocate.com/2025/05/14/w...

#arbluedots #voteblue Walmart's new security guard. Just in case you thought tariffs would onshore more jobs.

#arbluedots #voteblue The evolution of the religious right has been scary. 2016 - Sometimes God uses bad people to do good. Trump is like Darius 2020 - Trump is like Jesus 2024 - Trump is Jesus 2025 - Trump should be Pope

#arbluedots #voteblue Oklahoma will be teaching conspiracy theories as fact in social atudies classes. www.koco.com/article/okla...

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much? They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs. Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher. Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.” It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

#arbluedots #voteblue Tom Holman is threatening to arrest government officials who tell people their constitutional rights. Tell your Representative, Holman needs to go!

#Arbluedots #voteblue Sent this to my representative It is time to Fire Trump, not Big Bird. Trump continues to defy the courts. He continues to issue executive orders which he has no authority to issue. When are you, as my representative Going to hold him accountable. You work for us, not him.

#arbluedots #voteblue We need to make sure that every one knows, that the reason Congress is not pushing back on What Trump is doing, is that this is what Republicans have wanted to do all along.

#arbluedots #voteblue Putin declares a cease fire May 8-10. Of course cease fire is Russian for, "We still shoot at you, but you don't shoot back."

#arbluedots #voteblue Remember the other day when I said DOGE was going to cost more than it saves? www.yahoo.com/news/doges-1...

#arbluedots #voteblue youtube.com/post/UgkxIMu...

#arbluedots #voteblue I have a prediction. When all is said and done, Doge's activities will end up costing the taxpayers far more than any "savings" they accrue.

#arbluedots #voteblue #doge If you still think Musk is a genius who is going to make government more efficient, look at what has happened to Twitter since he bought it. He laid off 80% of its workforce and killed content moderation. X has lost subscribers, advertisers and 80% of its value.

#arbluedots #voteblue #networkstates Could this be the first network states? www.fox7austin.com/news/spacex-...

#arbluedots #voteblue So, in a little over 3 months, we've gone from "I'll end the war in Ukraine before u even take office" to "This is hard, I give up."

#arbluedots #voteblue People have short memories. Please keep reminding people that DOGE's goal is not to make government more efficient. It is to dismantle it. apnews.com/article/elec...
