Well if UHG denies the claims, the people are going to die and then the dollars would have been wasted. So the GOP thought it’s best not to waste it because UHG is going to kill them all anyway.
The moment we stop putting value on materialistic items and start putting value back into human life, is the moment we can begin to move forward in this world.
Why are we surprised MAGA Republicans will fund their Orange man's party and yank the funding for pediatric cancer research ? These are same MAGA Christians who always puts more guns in our current saturated culture of violence..especially in our schools.
The research for childhood cancer involves pinpointing cancer hotspots. That means big business has to abide by all those pesky environmental laws that Democrats put in place, so Leon and large corporations can't pollute the environment with impunity.
A smaller bill for pediatric cancer research later passed in the Senate by unanimous consent, but it's important to note that it had been languishing there for a long time, held up by Rand Paul. (He also submitted an amendment to raise the age for Social Security to 70, which failed). Hater.
Remember when he was trying to have tanks rolling down Penn Ave in 2016? I wonder if he’ll try and do that again. He wants nothing more than the forced worship Un gets.
Family values is code for keeping you spouce enslaved like when the bible was written and you payed a dowery to buy her from her parents at 11. Enjoy the fast fact.
That $$$ was approved and voted on by repubs in the house last March. In the senate, Schumer sat on it knowing he could use it as blackmail against the repubs when they opposed the 1500 page lobbyist boondoggle CR. It was put back into the pared down (150 pgs) CR as a line item and passed the house.
It's all just numbers on paper to them. It doesn't come out of their pockets. They just print more money and drive up inflation to inaugurate that buffoon but anything for the common good they won't fund because it might impact the tax cuts they want to give to the 1%
Ah, but the MAGAts with (and without) kids probably don’t even know about cutting pediatric cancer research funding because Fox News muzzled that info and they don’t read.
They have kids but view them differently. Kids are free labor, a social signaling mechanism, and a part of the path they are expected to travel. They own their kids and don't see them deserving of much until they can earn their keep.
So I'm supposed to believe someone in this inauguration committee isn't getting a HUGE kickback? For example "Trump"? Didn't he already charge millions last inauguration for his Trump hotel? He's never signed an Emoluments Clause, His son stole from cancer charity...MY GOD the grift has begun
Hear me out - Imagine being so consumed by partisan loyalty that you'd support taking funds away from kids fighting cancer. Are you really that far gone? 'Welcome back to the MAGA swamp,' where cruelty isn't a bug—it's a feature.
Last thing I'll say, amid all this political fighting, I’m reminded of a powerful truth I heard recently: "I would rather die standing than live on my knees." It’s a call to courage, integrity, and standing up for what’s right—even in the face of adversity. #TheResistance
Wow, just wow... who has this country become?
When I moved here in the late 70's this country had issues, but man was it progressive.
Things were happening like
The Women's Rights Movement
The Civil Rights Movement
The Gay Rights Movement
The Counterculture Movement - 2025 WTF happened?
The people didn't vote for the intelligent and competent "not going back" candidate..... they voted for the "going wayyy the f'ck back" dumbass hatin'on. everybody, one.🤪
Inauguration and the ball need privatized. The president can be sworn in in the steps of Congress in front of news media. If people come to DC to watch in person, that’s on them. No parades or fanfare. The Ball can be paid for by the incoming President and the party funds. This is not tax $ worthy.
Because once vaccines are outlawed children won’t live long enough to get cancer. 😢 or because Russia bombed an oncology center and it gave them ideas.
They could care less about someone else’s children. That’s evident by their refusal to enact gun legislation so children don’t lose their lives by a school shooter.
Ask a politician, "Do you want to protect children?" If they say "yes", then ask them, "What's the #1 threat to the lives of children?", and see what they say.
Id like to know why millions are blown on stupid ceremonies? This money could go SOOOOO many other places.
If I were President that money would go towards a pilot homeless village program I have already designed in my head using a vocational center structure...but ya know priorities
And all Elon had to do was say, "Hey, I'll pay for the cancer research project, just so the bill won't go on the government books." And then people might like him again. But no.
Not included? Pay raise for lawmakers, Pharma-middleman reform, which could lead to greater savings on drugs, Revenge-Porn criminalization, reimbursement for food stamp theft Of course), etc. It’s Republicans nature. 4 decades of paranoia, lack of empathy, no sense of humor, fashion, art & culture.
This is just the beginning of siphoning money off taxpayers & any govt programs to hand them over to trump’s account & his cohorts! Watch out Fort Knox & Central Bank! It will be emptied by the end of this rapist’s term!
Because they don’t believe science, medical research or pharmaceutical trials are valid, when you can do your own research by listening to podcasts for free. And tax break priorities.
I think this trying to cut pediatric cancer should be in every ad opposing these GOP lawmakers when they try to run again. Don’t let voters forget the party of ‘family values’ felt kids with cancer were less important than DJT’s inauguration fund! Yep- every attack ad needs this highlighted!
Just the beginning of the 4-yr money printing and suctioning starting up. They'll steal everything this time, including the kitchen sinks and gold from Ft. Knox. They've learned there is no law they answer to.
Nobody is in any place to tell me that Trump is not the president and never will be. Nobody can give me Goods to cement that he took this outcome legitimately, especially in light of every movie he has ever made, this one included.
No one attend the orange assholes inauguration! 🖕🏼Boycott, turn off your tvs and social media. Don’t give him an ounce of pleasure. This will be the least watched inauguration ever! 🖕🏼🤣😂
The first targets of Nazi eugenics were babies with birth defects and inherited diseases. Sick children were considered threatening to the health of the “National body.”
Both Trump and Musk espouse Nazi ideology and eugenics.
There should be NO inauguration because Trump campaigned on promises that were ALL LIES and he'll be committing perjury taking an oath to defend the constitution!!
The cancer research program was initiated by President Obama, and trump is a jealous, bitter and twisted little man, consumed by anger, hatred and envy.
The final bill does not reauthorize federal funding for the National Institutes of Health’s Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program. But the Senate on Friday night passed the measure as a standalone bill, which authorizes $12.5 million per year for five years.
I was told, quite sincerely, that it was voted against because evangelicals think this type of research should be privately funded. I don’t know where to start with that

MAGA, please explan this to people still having other feelings than hate ...

Rand is just a crank.

The Village People out of retirement to play at his coronation ball.
For comparison, 190 million is 1/2,105ths of 400 billion.
And VP Trump couldn’t say anything about it.
Both Trump and Musk espouse Nazi ideology and eugenics.
But I don't think Trump or these people would feel differently even if they spent time on a peds cancer ward.
MAYBE only if it was their own kid. Maybe.
