Hispanics are just sulking and praying to be saved Palestinians are trying to get right with Allah because they know they're going to Valley of the son of Hinnom
Those who voted for Trump--if they are even half awake--are now feeling what it is like to be kicked in the teeth by the Trump-DOGE-Oligarchs who run in political tandem with the White Christian Nationalists... Or, to put it another way, they are waking up to their self-inflicted lobotomy.
Happy Wednesday Mayra. It’s not like there were no hints. Like everything that happened in the #RacistInChief’s first term. Gee, the Muslim ban dude/Mexicans are rapists & criminals dude isn’t better than Harris? 😮
& ppl on Medicaid, SNAP, and housing assistance who voted for him. Medicaid funding hasn’t been cut yet, but it’s on the chopping block. It seems they’re following Drumpf’s path to bankruptcy, as healthcare costs can drive you into financial ruin. They’re so stupid.
OPM administers the FEHB program, but fed agencies are responsible for funding the premiums for federal employees’ health insurance, with employees paying their portion.
CMS provides the federal share of Medicaid funding, the actual state governments manage the program on the ground, determining eligibility, benefits, and enrollment.
The federal share typically ranges from 50% to 83% of Medicaid’s total cost, w/ poorer states receiving a higher fed match.
State govts: Cover the remaining portion (typically 17% to 50%), w/ poorer states receiving a higher fed match.
Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the fed government initially covered 100% of the costs for newly eligible Medicaid recipients (through Medicaid expansion), but this percentage gradually decreases to 90% in 2020 and beyond.
Hope this helps. 💙💙💙
Though the last decade, as a guy who is mixed race and identifies as Japanese/Canadian I’ve been dumbfounded at any person who is any colour than white, who would support 🍊? What didn’t I see that they saw? Just a dumb 🇨🇦 I guess..??…
🤦. I really thought we moved past this. I could tell you some stories about when I was a kid in the 70’s. I guts me that so many are being used in this BS. It really hurts.
I graduated HS in 1976 and college in 1980. I'm just sick about what's happening. It feels like the George Wallace era. Only thing is, most people eschewed him!
The useful question is: how do we invite these Trump voters, who now are starting to regret their decision and see him as a liar, back into the embrace of the Left so we grow in strength and solidarity?
All the Jewish Zionist shouldn't relax. As soon as Trump is done making Gaza into a Riviera in the Middle East, I'm sure he dreams of expanding into Israel.
I'm sure I can't care for ANYONE who would support an open and unapologetic racist fascist. To me, they are ALL hateful, racist, red-hatted Nazi brownshirts.
Oh, some of them are blaming Biden and Harris because they would have to admit that they were easily hoodwinked by a grifter & felon - and most people can’t admit that they’re that stupid
If you voted for trump the first time, you were fooled.
If you voted for trump the second time, you are a fool.
If you voted for trump the third time, you’re a DAMN FOOL that’s in a cult and would never see the wrongdoing of this orange pos! 🤷🏾♂️
I won't dump on voters who were advised that the ballot is how you express your disapproval. They did & it's their democratic right. Maybe we should be asking about all the others who voted for Trump. Maybe we should be asking how they like having their country sold out by the Rs THEY voted for.
I’m going to use this cartoon every single time a MAGA supporter tries to mess with me. I’m half tempted to print this as a sticker and pass them out locally. It’s perfect for what is going on just now and a perfect way to describe how they were manipulated to act against their own interests
It really simplifies the impact of the psychological warfare Putin unleashed on us. It’s the same reason why he’s able to get Russians to be cannon fodder for his invasion of Ukraine.
I wonder the same but sadly think that gives them credit for powers of reasoning and perception they may be lacking. I hold out hope that there is such a realization among these voters and others, but doubt it's any time soon.
Confirmation bias will hinder their desire/ability to admit their fatal error, which was not listening to *all* of Trump's rhetoric during the campaign. Everything that is happening was predicted by those of us on the left who paid attention to every shitty word.
Unfortunately, much of what he was saying was dismissed as Trump trolling and farming our outrage so his minions could feast on liberal tears. Their bigotry and irrational hate was used against them and they were manipulated to act against their own best interests
Well-said, and unfortunately, too true. We're in unexplored territory in the U.S. now. Trump's foreign "policy" is as dangerous as his domestic one, and the majority party in our Congress is complicit.
I fear there is still a ways to go until this can course correct. I would not rule out serious civil unrest within 3-4 months. Sadly, Trump wants that it’s all about dominance. His childhood, overbearing father, & sickly mother are clues to his pathology.
We're in agreement here (about all of it, including civil unrest). What other course of action is there when our governmental institutions fail us citizens, or even worse, conspire against us?
Yes. The people freaking out the most weren’t paying close enough attention. Either that, or they were under the Russian influence and too busy protesting the only people who would have saved us from this.
Also - it’s seriously past time for us to collectively stop blaming each other and stop making sweeping generalizations that aren’t true. That also is what helped us to lose this past election — though I truly think there was cheating involved, but not the wild goose chase stuff or red herrings
The “best” (effective) lies contain a tiny bit of truth — especially when megalomaniacs accuse others what they themselves are doing or lay a false trail to stir up outrage over the wrong thing — doing terrible stuff while our attention is diverted elsewhere: that has been their strategy all along!
To be fair, I’m seriously freaked even though I *was* paying attention. I was just hoping his incompetent and unqualified cabinet picks was indicative of how effective this administration was likely to be in accomplishing their stated goals. 🤦🏻♀️
I also never in a million years would have guessed that Musk would or even *could* manage what he is doing. Without Musk’s influence, I doubt if Trump’s new administration would have teeth and his rhetoric would have just been a lot of fetid hot air that could be safely ignored, like flatulence.
YES...
NOW...do we know how to stop this freight train ?
If you know, save your breath, just tell us how to brake, reverse course, throw up the barricades
Here’s the harsh truth we all have to face. Trump & Musk are purposely taking these extreme actions, knowing blocking them all in the courts will take a long time. This will trigger people to take to the streets, provoking Trump to declare a National emergency & order troops to squelch rebellion.
This isn’t conspiracy theory here. I’m looking at years of history and the tactics dictators have employed in the past. This is us right now. The question is how much are we willing to risk to prevent the country from continuing down this horrible road.
All true!!! They just yelled “propaganda, propaganda” when trying to tell them what he was saying at his rallies. Totally zombified. Better off talking to the wall. 😵💫
They must be gnashing their teeth right now, and I don't give a fucking damn about them. Arab Americans and Hispanic/Latino Americans, you chose all these; then fuck you and embrace all these chaos that behold your own people. You deserve every single bit of it! FUCK Y'all!
He told he was going to do what he is doing ... and despite of this, people voted for him. If he had said he was going to kill one third of the population, the same people would have voted for him. Impossible to understand.
I live in the UK, had the misfortune to run into two Trumpers on a bus tour last summer Both were Hispanic and naturalised US citizens living in Chicago. I'm guessing some folks they know have already been rounded up, and before long they'll be rounded up too.
I'm not American. What's pathetic is Democrat voters pointing a finger,using the plight of Palestinians as a weapon re an argument when one Party enabled a genocide & the other is finishing it off. Americans should be looking at their rotten political system & society where this is allowed to happen
Blinken went around the middle east at the start & tried to get countries to take Palestinians. If the US cleanses Gaza or the Israelis do, enabled by the US, what's the difference for the Palestinians? Trump is more blunt, that's the only difference.
Oh, I must have missed Biden's despatch of 2,000ln bombs to Israel, his inviting Netanyahu to the White House for a chummy chat, and his declaration that all Palestinians must get out of Gaza so he could profit from building luxury hotels along the strip. Perhaps you could post the links?
I still can't believe he said that, I was watching the news and I was like WTF, is this even happening? Nice way to likely end the ceasefire deal and stoke tensions.
He just put a huge target on the US for the extremists and terrorists to aim for. The chance of the US being attacked by terror groups just went up 100%.

They also live the Pentagon saying we will no longer observe MLK or DEI or Juneteenth, Kamala just isn't Black enough for us step n fetch for massa types.
If Musk sent his tech 20 year old boys to your house and they demanded you let them in and look around your house for your personal data. Would you let them in?
So why do you want them in America's business and it's data of Americans?
So are you upset with Trump for allowing Musk and his crew doing what they did? Or are you giving Trump a free pass for compromising America's security again.
Yeah, I wonder how @joyannreid.bsky.social @chrislhayes.bsky.social and a few others on MSNBC feel. They platformed uncommitted voters. Now all of those people are partially responsible for getting the devil back in the White House and allowing him to engage in ethnic cleansing.
It is sickening. They voluntarily ignored the facts and the red alarms, and willingly and knowingly drank the poisoned Kool Aid, thinking they were inmune. Even now, I still hear many, trying to justify FOTUS in one way or another. An unforgivable act of collective stupidity.
They will continue to defend their votes right up until the point they are personally impacted in a negative way. The one thing that unites all of his supporters, regardless of race, sex, or culture, is selfishness.
They don't know anything YET but I'm guessing they will when they lose their jobs, or ICE shows up, or they can't afford groceries/mortgage, or when the Klan rallies start, or when jarod develops Gaza, or whatever. Will they admit they were mislead then? Probably not; they'll be an "other" to blame
Or all the people didn't vote for Harris because she wouldn't take a strong stance on protecting Gaza. Not voting was a vote for Trump is take over the Middle East.
Hard to feel too bad at this point. They were warned, but continued to believe his lies. They might want to clue-in next time. If his lips are moving, he is lying. That’s it.
I have yet to see a single post or remark anywhere from anyone who voted for him expressing any regret whatsoever, beyond a couple of videos that were quite suspect. Those who went for him may have swallowed too much koolaid to come to their senses again.
Jill Stein is the grifting cicada. She only emerges once every 4 years to grift as much money as possible and steal votes. Then, after the election, she goes deep underground for 4 years, and the cycle repeats.

They brought it on with their own ignorance.

If you voted for trump the second time, you are a fool.
If you voted for trump the third time, you’re a DAMN FOOL that’s in a cult and would never see the wrongdoing of this orange pos! 🤷🏾♂️
50% probably can’t stop crying
That is what they are
We're horrified about what's going on.
💔
NOW...do we know how to stop this freight train ?

Right ...?
Doña Reclamos.
It’s a sad case of FAFO
There will be lot less stupid people in USA after these people board the plane & free flight to home.
If you ever just sat down with such person, and calmly have a conversation with them…. It will literally blow your mind how unintelligent they are
Black trumpers love that black history month no longer exists. Schools aren’t teaching it this month.
But at least they got more expensive eggs.

I will show myself out.
The number of Black people that turned to Trump is minuscule compared to Whites, Hispanics, East AND West Asians, Arab Americans, etc. etc. etc.
So why do you want them in America's business and it's data of Americans?
What does Harris have to do with trump wanting to hide Americas truth about how we treated minorities and their great achievements?
have all our information..
-So do they!!! 😡💯🔥
-Mark Twain
Don't distract from the issues of the day.
He said he wanted to be a dictator. They knew it and voted for him anyway.
This is 100% their fault.
Fuck their feelings! They gave us this.
They definitely will
And how about the ones who voted for Jill Stein?
As usual she’s crawled back under the rock she lives under and only comes out every 4 years to throw elections?
Instead, let's get a coalition of EVERYONE being hurt by Trump now.
(Have you all learned nothing since November? 🤦♀️)
