Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" cuts Medicaid. Cuts to health care for babies and new moms. Cuts to heath care for seniors in nursing homes. Cuts to health care for rural hospitals. Cuts to health care for people with disabilities. Republicans in Congress approved these cuts.

I hate it when I RSVP for an event and can’t make it. Anyway, here is the link to free tickets for Captain Bone Spur’s military parade… events.america250.org/events/250th...

Fucking vote!!!

Abortion bans cause dead women to be intubated and forcibly kept alive against the family wishes. And the family pays for it.

from today's post, about the fuckery that went down at the secret crypto greedfest dinner that was held last night at Donny Convict's Virginia golf motel please read the whole thing, thanks! link is here: bit.ly/3Zw1nel (and as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

“Everyone has to make everything in the United States, or else!” he yells… as his family signs deal after deal for golf courses in other countries… and he accepts hundreds of millions in crypto bribes from unidentified foreign actors…

Sure… no self profiting… www.newsweek.com/new-trump-go...

“This is taxpayer-funded, state-sponsored religious indoctrination. You’ve just got to call it what it is.”

As the USAssholes have down their suicide hotline, Canada has broadcasted their national hotline which now has a toll-free American version: 1-877-330-6366

Every single breath a projection of their own cowardice venality and sloth

One of my favourite pieces of graffiti here is called ‘The Three Fates’ and it’s on the west side of the Wallace Pedestrian Bridge

The Sunday shows are keeping it real—Schumer gave away the game for nothing. Jen Psaki lays out what he could have done. He played this wrong on every level. And with a Social Security, Medicare, and a tax cut fight coming, do you really want @schumer.senate.gov leading the fight?!

Not really any more people being deported. It is just being done at a much higher cost and with sketchy processes. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

The FAA is now investigating an incident in which a Southwest Airlines jet and a private jet at Chicago's Midway Airport nearly collided on Tuesday. NOTE: The Trump administration is responsible for slashing 400 jobs at the FAA just within the past week — jobs which supported…

OK, the report is now fully in major media. Media must get an extensive White House response; Congress must investigate (even if it's a minority report); DOJ and the FBI must investigate; the CIA must issue a report on what it knew about this and when.

Just got off the phone with Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-N.M.), who said Elon Musk's DOGE team is "actively dismantling" federal Department of Education programs today. "They are in the building, on the 6th floor, canceling grants and contracts."

🔥(D) Sen. Merkley said RUSSEL VOUGHT is "probably the most dangerous man in America right now." When he headed OMB during DJT's 1st term, he drove an attack on health care, housing, the cost of education, child tax credits, basically any program that supports working families or children. CALL!!!

THREAD: We’re two weeks in, so here’s a quick report on what Trump has done so far. Spoiler alert: none of it very helpful, and most of it is extremely harmful.

We are in the midst of a three alarm constitutional fire.

5 things to know about Trump's plan to create a sovereign wealth fund: President Trump is taking steps to overhaul the way the U.S. government invests its money and change the nature of America’s financial presence abroad. The president signed an executive order Monday that kicked off the process…

FOTUS rammed through new Title IX rules for federally funded K-12 schools and colleges Friday—dramatically changing how they deal with sex assault claims and LGBT students. He made it so they have to have a live hearing with lawyers present & cross examination. He puts the victims on trial.

Some people voted for trump. Some people voted for Kamala. Some people voted 3rd party. But I guarantee you that NOBODY voted for a fucking billionaire to be raiding our Social Security. What the fuck is THIS bullshit?

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...

To recap, Trump: -Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence -Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers -Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee -Blamed the DCA crash on DEI This is disastrous leadership.

Oh yes

It’s okay to feel like crashing out. It’s okay to feel okay. It’s okay if today is hard. It’s okay if today is chill. It’s all okay.

I guarantee you there are a TON of people on Medicaid who voted for trump because they never thought the leopard would eat THEIR faces. trump's federal funding freeze is fucking everyone except the rich, closing the Medicaid portal for MILLIONS of Americans. Don't blame US. We voted for Kamala.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

PROP - PR Over Policy. Don't confuse them. He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him. Dems need to be strategic.
