Did you know that 72 MILLION Americans rely on Medicaid for healthcare? The Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans in Congress want to take it away to give tax breaks to billionaires. Don't let them take away our healthcare. Let them know you didn’t vote for this shit.

“I don’t hold out hope that Senate Republicans will ever do the right thing. But just maybe they, too, are unwilling to trust Trump nominees who are so willing to apparently lie right to their faces,” says @chrislhayes.bsky.social on Kash Patel.

Shortly after Trump banned 1600 vetted Afghan refugees who risked life & limb to help the USA against the Taliban, he issued an EO to accept white South Africans as refugees...because they're white. Just one of Trump's latest fascist EOs. I break them down here: www.qasimrashid.com/p/trump-late...

White privilege is firing a bunch of FAA officials because REASONS, forcing the FAA Director to resign, freezing all hiring of air traffic controllers, and then having planes crash and drop out of the sky in a span of TWO FUCKING DAYS and getting to KEEP YOUR JOB. My Black ass would be fired.

also, knowing that USAID does democracy promotion abroad, to what extent is Elon sending sensitive information about American workers abroad to rival governments and right-wing political movements?

Mexico told Trump it'll be sending 10,000 troops to the border to "stop fentanyl" (actually match the 10,000 troops the US threatened to send and stop a potential US invasion); Trump backed down and declared the Mexico tariffs would be pushed back for "another month".

Don't worry. These budget cuts will support tax cuts for the oligarchs who will use them to boost profits, push for more deregulation and ship your jobs overseas. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Trump just said the D.C. plane crash "could have been" caused by diversity hiring. He offers no evidence to support that statement.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and his wife, Rachel Campos-Duffy, have a child with Down syndrome—yet he stood by while Trump attacked the disabled community. What Trump just said was unnecessary and cruel. They are gaslighting and looking for a scapegoat once again.

Sadly, @qasimrashid.com is right: Democrats have no clear message, no clear response to Project 2025, and no clear person leading the party. A great list of urgent actions from former Democratic congressional rep form IL, Marie Newman open.substack.com/pub/marienew...

Donald Trump takes every opportunity to blame the Biden administration and not take any responsibility when he already made executive orders against the FAA and advice from Elon Musk on cutting FAA employees. He has absolutely no compassion or concern or humanity, but we already knew that.
