GOP is creating more private profit opportunities, like the completely immoral private equity contract MD's that result in surprise billing and financial ruin for so many Americans.

They sure are showing their cards, and they have been for decades. People continue to vote for them, to their own detriment. It's not logical.

Despicable. We have become an overt kleptocracy, instead of the covert one that existed before

Sounds like we should be auditing “In fiscal year (FFY) 2023, the US spent $880 billion on Medicaid, with the federal government paying 69% and states paying 31%. This represents a 7.9% increase from the previous year.”

And the democrats are doing nothing to stop them.

Because you’re all in on it. One big production to distract the masses from all your crimes!!!

valearle.bsky.social•5 days ago

LOL what? That’s stupid.

quinanguadecim.bsky.social•5 days ago

It’s not.
It’s all an act. Dems are also taking money from Elon..
They didn’t even charge Trump with Treason when he stole all those cases of classified information….

This is the biggest SMASH-AND-GRAB in this country since our ancestors pushed indigenous people from their land!

You need to prioritize on legal voting democrats not any illegal person your compassion at the expense of our tax dollars doesn’t do any good when average Americans are struggling, eliminate credit card interest and subsidies mortgage interest rate , bring government construction house to lower rent

Why are they so evil? That is the only possible motive.

What can we do once it gets to the senate?

ladytora.bsky.social•5 days ago

May the mid terms next year be beyond brutal!

dreamk73.bsky.social•5 days ago

Every Dem rep and senator should call in to all the news channels. Get loud! Fight for the American people.

Find a way to message that to Red states because they are blaming Biden for all of this

vxcxxr93.bsky.social•5 days ago

They’ll continue to do it. They don’t care. Will villainize anyone BUT the ones actively harming them.

Grassroots 💡

It’s time to reach out to Republican friends + family

“WHOA, did you hear about this!? 😒😒 😒 No way!

💩 DOGE cuts 💩

It’s shocking, cutting (wait for it) Medicaid? or ___ , ___

I mean, I don’t remember anyone voting to bring parents home from nursing homes. Do you? What’s going ON?”

https://www.cbpp.org/research/health/veterans#:~:text=Nearly%201%20in%2010%20non,their%20coverage%20only%20through%20Medicaid. “Medicaid is CRITICAL source of health coverage for VETERANS.Nearly 1 in 10 non-elderly Vets have Medicaid coverage and, of those, 40% get coverage ONLY through Medicaid. ACA led to large gains in health coverage among non-elderly veterans.”

Profoundly sick assholes! Their fear-based hatred of “others” and their greed has morphed into a disease! If all their dreams are fulfilled, people are deported, rendered sick, poor, stupid and dead, who’s gonna buy all the shit they sell? Who are they going to tax? Their disease is terminal!

To quote Josh Lyman:

Glad the House Dems held the line.

This graphic from Rep. Pressley spoke to me

And to be clear, it wasn’t to reduce the deficit or taxes for the lower 97% of us. This will shutter hospitals and kill people that no longer have healthcare. Children and old people will be affected the worst. The SNAP benefits cut are going to create a lot more hungry children as well.

Lawmaker Jayapal: 🫶 How about Field Hearings to win the Special Elections with Dems best and brightest from House/Senate? Then use it as a template for a growing population of mad rural voters to set up the mid terms. It is the Tea Party playbook!

Thank you for continuing to represent your district with conviction and courage. Keep calling them out and fighting back on every front and know you have our support.

So tired of hearing that crap. If you can't do anything about it, just shut the fuck up...ok

Nuthervuckers enacting TRasshatery‼️🤬👹 They are the closest thing to demons that any human can be.

comradeterry.bsky.social•5 days ago

Why will they all ignore the facts and vote for Republicans again? It's a disease!

amdjerz.bsky.social•5 days ago

Go to republican offices/ flood them with calls —get loud.

62% of nursing home residents are funded by Medicaid and 50 percent of kids. These are your family members and neighbors and friends. And odds are people you love use or will need these services one day.

caligirl4ever.bsky.social•5 days ago

and the only one that didn’t vote for it was opposed bcuz it didn’t cut enough!

olivercurwen.bsky.social•5 days ago

What's the end goal? How much lower can the wealthy's taxes go before they're satisfied? Is the end goal that not-wealthy people just pay directly to the wealthy, bypassing services that benefit the large majority of Americans? Why isn't Congress working at helping the majority of people in America?
