Did these fools think that there were separate federal grants and services and assistance for the Libs vs them? Like there’s a Medicaid program just for them and a different one for everyone else?
I work in healthcare and all of my members are Medicaid and/or Medicare. When I told my brother I could lose my job if T won, he told me that was propaganda, don’t listen.
They just didn’t believe any of it.
See, as much as I enjoy the schadenfreude things like this aren't going to help the left. Pointing and laughing at people isn't going to get them on side. Better to leave the "I told you so" unsaid and instead show sympathy and demonstrate a better way. We need to be better than they are.
Why would I want them on our side? They're stupid. They will lower the median IQ. Dems have taken the high road and where has it gotten them? An orange fascist pig in control of government. It's time to get down in the mud and fling it.
Nope.
They hate us. There is nothing that is going to change that. The nicer we are to them the more they will hate us. CA and NY sends billions to prop up their states and they hate them for it.
The best we can hope for is they become disillusioned with the criminal orange Dear Leader.
Let’s take it a step further. If you get sick enough to need to go to the ER, voting status should be checked and determine if you can be admitted. Let’s save the care for the people that understand and respect the importance of healthcare and vaccines
I know your not fully serious, but I am when I say stuff like that.
Triage society. Some morons need to be left to die in a ditch. Toss the morons a holy book of their choice and tell them their god will have his will. 🤣
Sorry, but the death of all religions in this country is when they started taking money from the government. I said this a couple of decades ago. Same with our Democracy when Citizens United was approved by the scotUS. Destroy Citizens United by voting for politicians who don’t take billionaires $$$
Why are churches getting money from the Federal government? They've all got plenty of money that they've robbed from their constituents based on lies so I'm not sure why I have to support their bigotry and cruelty and racism and political bullshit. Tax the fucking churches
THAT is the question that needs to be asked.
The whole concept of tax exemptions needs to be ended.
Give them tax deductions based on actions, not beliefs, just like the rest of us.
Religion is a scam, there is no reason we should be funding it.
I'm quite terrified. My father is 95 soon and requires his social security to pay for his government-rent controlled apartment. Not to mention his Medicare & Medicaid. The MAGATS are literally trying to kill people. What can anyone do?
My understanding is that the memo specifically excluded social security and Medicare in things being paused. It does pause SNAP though, which many elderly folks use, idk about your father, and Medicaid, I haven't seen one way or the other.
I hear ya. *For now,* he hasn't touched Social Security and Medicare. I've got the same worries for my mom. We're writing and calling representatives (and spending as little as possible).
It's worth it to note that all "contact us" information has been removed from https://whitehouse.gov
First of all they're building million dollar projects for a church and they are receiving government grants to do so, all while not paying any taxes... They don't need any government assistance anyway Fuck them... I'm worried about people that actually deserve the government money.
These churches are worried about grant funded projects and not the impact on the people's lives, the people in need!
Well these churches got what the prayed for! Hope worshiping the orange man; preaching his gospel of project 2025 was worth selling out the tenets of Christ's teachings.
It's so unfair to those of us who didn't FA and understood the assignment. I literally depend on SSDI, Medicare, Medicaid, & SNAP to survive. Losing even one of these benefits would threaten my life. I hate having to be afraid because 1/3 of the country voted for a greedy, out of touch liar.
I'm so worried that this is going to make so many people homeless and starving. I'm so sorry for what you're going through, and hope someone is able to stop this.
Me too! I work full time, attend school part time, I’m disabled and depend on Medicaid and Section 8! We’ve got about 3 months until the shit hits the fan for real! This message was released by State Rep Angie Nixon of Florida.
I will ask her why she’s not joined yet. We speak online fairly regularly. I adore her and the work she does for her district goes above and beyond any political figure I have ever seen in my life and I’m 47 years old!
Dear God,
Thank you for this wonderful world. I’m sorry we’re screwing up all your hard work. But I have one really big favor…would you make that cheeseburger work a lot faster 🙏
MAGA "faithful): "Almighty Gawd, he is your chosin'.....why hast thou forsaken him? Was it the pussygrabbin'? Tell us! Tell Paula White and let her jabber it out in tongues for us. Tell us! It was the pussygrabbin,' wasn't it......or is it the witch he's married to?"
But eggs are too expensive! For everyone receiving aid in any shape or form your eggs and gas prices are going to go up! Just wait there will be more to come
I don’t believe anything until proven. I don’t doubt for a second that they would want to hit those. But I also know 50 million Americans are on SNAP and WIC and they aren’t going to give them more reason to be Anti government in this climate to march and protest.
Hypocrisy know thy name! Funny days ago in "church" where not an ounce of scripture was quoted & the church representative berated the orange haired troll!
The Pope had a clear shot at withdrawing support for a GOP lifelong conman/racist/felon/adulterer and did he? Nope, quite the contrary. As a result, according to the Washington Post’s exit poll, Trump won the national Catholic vote by a 15-point margin: 56% to 41%. For shame, people.
Any church that politicizes from the pulpit should immediately have its tax-exempt status revoked. It is illegal and unconstitutional for them to engage in political discourse in any official way.
It’s a shame they have to rely on tax dollars from non believers because their Jesus is too fucking lame to get off his ass and do anything.
With great power comes… invisibility.
Trump is an idiot. He may be the leader of this merry band of jackals and thieves but don’t let this den of grifters slip away from the plans they’re getting him to sign off on. The evil goes deep and all around the Pres.
The only happiness around what is going on, this days, comes from when I see people that have bowed down to the con getting what they deserve. It’s that a sin God? Do I have to feel bad about feeling god about that?😅😂🤣
The Federal government does not set aside a separate funding stream specifically for faith-based groups. Rather, they are eligible to apply for government grants on an equal footing with other similar non-governmental organizations
I love this for MAGA. I’m greatly concerned for everyone who didn’t vote for this circus, but for MAGA? The fumes of their self-inflicted misery might just be enough to sustain me during these dark times.
God, WTF? These churches already make billions on paying no taxes, and they can and have been scamming US for “projects”?
Projects to fill more pews to give more money so pastors can buy more airplanes??
Let churches pay for their own projects.
I wonder which churches are getting this money. There are many small churches who take Jesus' message to help the poor and powerless seriously. I have only a small argument if they're getting the grants.
TOT & PEARS, y’all. T is your orange god! His only god is wealth & power. You sacrificed our country and our future to worship him. Suffer the consequences.
All the magats I've seen on FB are cheering about sticking it to all the DEI/trans/WOKE (basically every buzzword they've ever heard Fox say 🙄) folks and how it will NEVER impact them because they have nothing to do with any of that woke BS. Yeah, they're all idiots, but can't wait for the FAFO.
A Federal Judge has issued to stay for the last few days! This will give the courts time to put into this nonsense, hopefully! Otherwise I see an uprising not a strike! Because the only thing I’ve heard from my neighbors is something along the lines of Gaddafi’s fate!
It does not affect SNAP/EBT or TANF, though it might affect WIC in some places. Those are benefits, not grants or loans. It's important to get the facts straight, & not tell poor families they are going to be hungry or homeless when it's not true. Spread information, not panic.
Snap, ebt are federal assistance you have to apply and qualify for them. They are not benefits you don't automatically get them. If your on SS, you still have to qualify for those extra fed assistance. Not everyone on SS get them.
"U.S. Senator Ron Wyden, the top finance committee Democrat, said his office had confirmed that the portal doctors use to secure payments from Medicaid had been deactivated in all 50 states"
That system breaks quite frequently. Whether it's related this time to certain agencies needing clarification on Trump's order or not, this memo does clarify things. It doesn't impact coverage, & it will be running again soon, at least until the next time it breaks.
I've never seen it break to this scale, but whatever. Maybe everyone across 50 states has an eye issue; can't trust 'em, right?
And certainly an administration built on lying liars who immediately put in gag orders on every federal program are actually communicating clearly *this* time.
You are right we do need to have accurate information. This article says it's not affected, but there are others I read that says it will. These are very hard times, and it's so hard to sift through everything. 😫
Emotions are running high, including mine.
And they are doing that on purpose because they want us to be upset and panicky and not knowing what to think. But think about it: if they shut down these benefits, all these billionaires would lose their workers, because they refuse to pay a living wage.
Dress up as the opposite gender ain't changing the rules. People should remember that people commit crimes and they don't have to Dress up as the opposite gender to do it. Facial recognition would probably help even if they are dressed up so they can say the criminal can never be caught.
I will say that doesn't actually make them trans but others who against trans blame them because they think that it would happen because of trans people when that is really their fault that people try commit crimes like kidnapping just to think they can getaway with it
People just use it to say that a person dresses up as the opposite gender and then goes in that opposite genders restrooms to kidnap children. Because they can use being a trans a way to get into opposite genders' restroom so that they can switch back the gender they actually are *
Correct.
Because going into a room and kidnapping people is illegal no matter what they wear.
But honestly, even THAT is unbelievably rare - like, count it on one hand level rare.
Hell, I suspect more people are dressed as zombies, vampires, etc for Halloween committing SA than in drag.
No one
I say this if the cops can't determine where to find the kidnapper with cameras that can help them find the person's location or figure out how identifying the kidnappers true identity then we do have a problem but I think it can help because we ain't stupid.
The people I talk to don't have a problem with unisex trans. But the other trans oh boy they will blame them for men or women for going into opposite sexes bathroom to kidnap children. I think the cops could find out their real gender if they find out where they bought the outfits.
*the bullies who should be kicked out. Like they think all kids should say a person's pronouns correctly or get kicked out. I'm not seeing that happening, but they think it is. And for some reason think the school is forcing kids and teachers to be lgbtq or force them to participate in an event.
If you're wondering how that's a bad thing, it is one of the drag queens. Can't say that isn't a problem, but not all drag queens are bad and freaky. Some churches are less safe for children. And something about kids who are not saying pronouns correctly get kicked out, and I don't mean *
I've also viewed my concerns about how people are viewing lgbtq and how they see them as making us look like a laughing stock.
But they don't want to see that Trump is doing that. The reason why they are putting blame on lgbtq is because the school's are trying to make sure they lgbtq friendly.
I mean, maybe I didn't listen enough to their concerns, but with how things went during covid and the overturning of Roe v. Wade, I feel like I'm being ignored because the reason why I don't like the abortion ban was made more apparent after women died because of the lack of treatment for *
I honestly couldn't warn the people around me enough they already see me as someone who will argue with them and want believe we can talk about anything. And, surpise surpise, it started with the 2020 election and abortions. Because I support the right to your own body.
Did you think an extreme political party or a billionaire has your back? Neither the grifter leading the party nor the quirky billionaire bankrolling it cares about you. You are not rich enough to matter to them, but they'll take your vote.

Problem will be, it’s not even temporary.

I'm upset for real things federal dollars are used for being freezed.
why am i feeling bad for churches? i hate religion!
Thank you and Amen.
Well these churches got what the prayed for! Hope worshiping the orange man; preaching his gospel of project 2025 was worth selling out the tenets of Christ's teachings.
fuck it I don’t think we should pay our taxes. tax strike
Never thought I would ever say/think that, but punching back against fascism takes precedence these days.
Thank you for this wonderful world. I’m sorry we’re screwing up all your hard work. But I have one really big favor…would you make that cheeseburger work a lot faster 🙏

Nonsense!
I'd laugh if not for the millions of innocent people who will suffer because of this short-sighted insanity.

My church has a good homeless ministry, we're running a food bank, we're tied in the Arizona Food Bank. We don't get money from the feds to do it.

Is it trumps time yet?
And here we are.
Let's be honest here...
...they won't learn a thing from this.
But as we've only just left week 1 behind, there's plenty more opportunities to watch them go through hell I'm sure.
Excuse me while I grab a fresh bag of popcorn.

Someone trans committing SA while dressed trans is vanishingly rare.

Some say there's real trans and fake trans.
I see unisex trans and the that either don't feel like the gender they are assigned with at birth and also non-binary.
But they don't want to see that Trump is doing that. The reason why they are putting blame on lgbtq is because the school's are trying to make sure they lgbtq friendly.
Because of Biden and covid.
Help us find groups to fight with.
Help us find our next generals.
Help us get weapons.
Help us find trainers.
Help us find military help.
Help us pool resources to survive.
Discussions over, we have to fight before they get us killed.
Otherwise, I hope your District wins the inaugural Games.
All he cares about is enriching himself and his Broligarchs, I don't know how that is news to these people.
