That would be slashed, too

What are y’all doing about this? How can a gop senator in the minority shut down military promotions for months during the Biden administration and you say there’s nothing Dems can do to stop the looting of our country??

acitizen.bsky.social•9 days ago

After years of screaming and fighting debt limits, the GOP now wants to raise it by
$4 trillion !

$4,000,000,000,000,000,000

They are also looking to gut or privatize programs, especially those that help the most vulnerable.

Tax the rich instead of cutting SS, Medicare, Medicaid !

Medicaid and Snap recipients you know what to do if you are able

What if Canada, Mexico, and other countries decided to close them down or end continued build out of Musk's charging stations? Dump the stock!

There's 2,500 Tesla Superchargers containing a total of 29,083 Tesla Supercharger ports in the U.S., according to the U.S. Department of Energy. 60,000+ Global Superchargers.
What if there were no charging stations available or closed down? How would this impact sales?

That is what happens when the populace elects "a business man". American business is based on deception, falsity, obscuration of facts, knowingly but legally making unhealthy foods etc. This is our country, our system at work. Trump is the mushroom on the shit pile of American Culture and Business.

I will never believe what comes out a Republicans mouth. They constantly lie …. Oh wait!! Misinformation 🤪. I’m over the maga bs. No rule of law. Only maga law!

The transfer of Wealth begins. It will be two pronged now! People will pay taxes so Elon can sell his garbage cans and then they'll have to support loved ones who've been ousted from services or face more property crime costs. All in all Avg Americans writ large will be harmed!

No!! We cannot let this happen!! Too many Americans rely on these important programs!!! America 🇺🇲 is better than this!!

This means that Walmart will have to ask for food donations for their employees.

Keep us poor, keep us sick, keep us ignorant. That’s the end goal of the American experiment, it seems. Fk em.

jmdean946.bsky.social•9 days ago

Republicans are liars!

jmdean946.bsky.social•9 days ago

And again, Democrats will have to come in with a huge pooper scooper and save this country, like after every Republican administration. Only this time it will be harder and take longer because of the large number of poor people and the destruction of our institutions.

jmdean946.bsky.social•9 days ago

Trump is trying to make the majority of people in this country live below the poverty level. Poor people are much easier to control. He does not care about anyone but himself and the filthy rich. This will probably hurt the Magas more than anyone. You still support your Dictator?

gozman.bsky.social•9 days ago

They voted it. Now suffer

lwoodwa.bsky.social•9 days ago

Start recording stories from people that will be affected and spread them far and wide. This may be the only way to stop the Republicans

marietoto.bsky.social•9 days ago

PS the $400 million earmarked for Tesla was apparently a misreading of a spreadsheet.

starr20.bsky.social•9 days ago

A lot of these people voted for Trump. Let them see the consequences of their actions. We TOLD them!

mktimber.bsky.social•9 days ago

these people are well armed so I think we know what will happen

genxjase.bsky.social•9 days ago

Weenies & wimps. The GOP gives you atomic wedgies, steals your lunch money and shoves you into lockers on a daily basis. Even when you were -in- power. @dncstaffunion.bsky.social is the party of pussies.

“Getting angry”?

I’m in a perpetual state of being pissed off!

boerjebrandt.bsky.social•9 days ago

Hi @democrats.org In Congress, Senate and in USA.

The very most important thing, democrats (politicians, leaders, party members & voters) needs to do the coming years.

Is...

lfeatfan.bsky.social•9 days ago

Buy armored cyber trucks and cut Medicaid. If you ever had a doubt about the direction of the Trump administration, you know now. We'll see how the MAGA folks on Medicaid feel about it

wgood4.bsky.social•9 days ago

They won’t be alive to answer between the economy, Medicaid, HHS, absence of medical care/hospitals, bird flu, and effects of RFK jr. That is part of the plan, kill off as many as possible. The old and the very young, sick, impaired etc. This way the billionaires get even more money!

ledoblunt21.bsky.social•9 days ago

I pray that the DEMS listen to their constituents and fight back/obstruct/become creative with ways to delay. We should NOT be helping the GOP, Trump or Musk. Every action they take matters.

jakejds3rd.bsky.social•9 days ago

But the Musk/Trump presidency can surely be trusted to assure government efficiency, no? (The fox guarding the henhouse would never kill off all his charges, particularly because he has NOTHING to gain here, no?)

dasvaber.bsky.social•9 days ago

Excellent prospective setting. It’s disgusting. Get angry America, especially red America.

No one seems to wonder WHERE the money is set to go.

ignuit.bsky.social•9 days ago

Much as I'd like to think appeals to humanity would influence even a single GOP legislator, I fear a better strategy may be to focus on the financial loss this would create for Walmart. Not only are they the largest food retailer in the US, they are also the largest employer of SNAP recipients.

frant1.bsky.social•9 days ago

Another reason for folks to vote D in the midterm elections!
